SIX CHANNEL DS3/E3 FRAMER IC WITH HDLC CONTROLLER
REV. P1.1.2
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRT72L56, 6 Channel DS3/E3 Framer is de-
signed to accept “User Data” from the Terminal
Equipment and insert this data into the “payload” bit-
fields within an “outbound” DS3/E3 Data Stream.
The XRT72L56 DS3/E3 Framer support full-duplex
data flow between Terminal Equipment and an LIU
(Line Interface Unit) . The Framer will transmit, re-
ceive and process data in the DS3-C-bit Parity, DS3-
M13, E3-ITU-T G.751 and E3-ITU-T G.832 Framing
Formats.
In addition, XRT72L56 has 6 independent high speed
HDLC controllers both on the receive and transmit
data paths which can be optionally configured to sup-
port Framer Relay applications.
The Transmit Sections, include a Transmit Payload
Data Input Interface, a Transmit Overhead data Input
Interface Section, a Transmit HDLC Controller, a
Transmit DS3/E3 Framer block and a Transmit LIU In-
terface Block which permits the Terminal Equipment
to transmit data to a remote terminal.
The Receive Sections, consist of a Receive LIU Inter-
face, a Receive DS3/E3 Framer, a Receive HDLC
Controller, a Receive Payload Data Output Interface,
and a Receive Overhead Data Interface which allows
the local terminal equipment to receive data from re-
mote terminal equipment.
The Microprocessor Interface is used to configure the
Framer in different operating modes and monitor the
performance of the Framer.
The Performance Monitor Sections consist of a large
number of "Reset-upon-Read" and "Read-Only" reg-
isters that contain cumulative and "one-second" sta-
tistics that reflect the performance/status of the chan-
nels.
