The following tables define the values for Bits 1 and 0
and the corresponding meaning.
TxFIFO Full
TXFIFO FULL (BIT 1)
MEANING
0
TxFIFO is full, the ATM Layer processor risks causing an overrun if it writes to the TxFIFO now.
1
TxFIFO is not full.
TxFIFO Empty
TXFIFO EMPTY (BIT 0)
MEANING
0
TxFIFO is not empty
1
TxFIFO is empty. The TxCell Processor is currently generating IDLE cells
2.1.2.4UTOPIA Modes of Operation (Single PHY
and Multi-PHY operation)
The UNI chip can support both Single-PHY and Multi-
PHY operation. Each of these operating modes are
discussed below.
2.1.2.4.1Single PHY Operation
The UNI chip will be operating in the Multi-PHY mode
upon power up or reset. Therefore, a “1” must be writ-
ten to Bit 4 within the UTOPIA Configuration register
(Address = 6Ah) in order to configure the UNI into the
Single-PHY Mode.

Writing a ‘1’ to this bit-field configures the UNI to op-
erate in the Single-PHY Mode. Writing a ‘0’ config-
ures the UNI to operate in the Multi-PHY Mode.
In Single-PHY operation, the ATM layer processor is
pumping data into and receiving data from only one
UNI device, as depicted in Figure 7 .
