DS21Q55 Datasheet, PDF (1/237 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – Quad T1/E1/J1 Transceiver
www.maxim-ic.com
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DS21Q55 is a quad software-selectable T1, E1,
or J1 MCM device for short-haul and long-haul
applications. Each port is composed of a line
interface unit (LIU), framer, HDLC controllers, and a
TDM backplane interface, and is controlled by an
8-bit parallel port configured for Intel or Motorola
bus operations. The DS21Q55 is software compatible
with the DS2155 single-chip transceiver. It is pin
compatible with the DS21Qx5y family of products.
Each LIU is composed of transmit and receive
interfaces and a jitter attenuator. The transmit
interface is responsible for generating the necessary
waveshapes for driving the network and providing
the correct source impedance depending on the type
of media used. T1 waveform generation includes
DSX-1 line build-outs as well as CSU line build-outs
of -7.5dB, -15dB, and -22.5dB. E1 waveform
generation includes G.703 waveshapes for both 75W
coax and 120W twisted cables. The receive interface
provides network termination and recovers clock and
data from the network.
