GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRT94L43 is a highly integrated SONET/SDH
terminator designed for E3/DS3/STS-1 mapping/de-
mapping functions from either the STS-12 or STM-4
data stream. The XRT94L43 interfaces to either STS-
12 or STM-4 signals using a byte wide parallel inter-
face in Telecom Bus format or via serial line interface
that operates at 622.08 MHz.
The XRT94L43 processes the section,line and path
overhead in the SONET/SDH data stream. The pro-
cessing of path overhead bytes within the STS-1s or
TUG-3s includes 64 bytes for storing the J1 bytes.
Path overhead bytes can be accessed through the
microprocessor interface or via serial interface.
The XRT94L43 uses the internal E3/DS3 De-Syn-
chronizer circuit with an internal pointer leak algo-
rithm for clock smoothing as well as to remove the jit-
ter due to mapping and pointer movements. These
De-Synchronizer circuits do not need any external
clock reference for its operation.
The SONET/SDH transmit blocks allow flexible inser-
tion of TOH and POH bytes through both Hardware
and Software. Individual POH bytes for the transmit-
ted SONET/SDH signal are mapped either from the
XRT94L43 memory map or from external interface.
A1,A2 framing pattern, C1 byte and H1,H2 pointer
byte are generated.
The SONET/SDH receive blocks receive SONET
STS-3 signal or SDH STM-1 signal and perform the
necessary transport and path overhead processing.
The XRT94L43 provides a line side APS (Automatic
Protection Switching) interface by offering redundant
receive serial interface to be switched at the frame
boundary.
The XRT94L43 provides 12 mappers for performing
STS-1/VC-3 to STS-1/DS3/E3 mapping function, one
for each STS-1/DS3/E3 framers.
A PRBS test pattern generation and detection is im-
plemented to measure the bit-error performance.
A general purpose microprocessor interface is includ-
ed for control, configuration and monitoring.
