DESCRIPTION:
The IDT77916 is the first reference design for full, 25Mbps
ATM Network Interface Card (NIC) from IDT. The IDT NIC
card reference designs and evaluation cards provide the
fastest way to for OEMs to get their ATM software and
hardware up and running.
IDT will provide, upon request, all documentation, draw-
ings, parts lists, and data bases required to manufacture this
card. IDT also has the board level assembly capabilities to
provide ready to "plug and play" NICs at competitive prices.
Together with your company designed software drivers, or
the third party software drivers available, 25Mbps ATM is here
today.
The heart of the board is the IDT77211 NICStAR which is
an ATM Segmentation And Reassembly (SAR) controller.
The physical interface is provided by the IDT77105 PHY that
provides both the Transmission Convergence (TC) and Physi-
cal Media Dependent (PMD) layers in one device.
The IDT77916 supports Unshielded Twisted Pair, Cat-
egory 3 (UTP-3) cabling. The IDT77916 features complete
PCI 2.0-bus ATM NIC functionality, plugging directly into PCI
bus expansion slots.
The IDT77916 can be used in conjunction with the IDT
provided "SARWIN" program. SARWIN allows access into
SAR, PHY, host memory, local SRAM on the NIC card and
each register in each device. You are able to configure each
component on the card and setup the host for transmission of
and receiving cells. It is an excellent evaluation tool for the
NIC and each of its components.
