SATURN USER NETWORK INTERFACE PLUS
The transmitter section:
• Provides an internal four cell FIFO into which cells are written using a generic
16-bit or 8-bit wide datapath interface.
• Inserts the generic flow control (GFC) bits via a simple serial interface and
provides a transmit XOFF function to allow for local flow control.
• Counts transmit cells read from the transmit FIFO.
• Provides idle/unassigned cell insertion, HCS generation/insertion, and ATM
cell payload scrambling.
• Inserts ATM cells into the transmitted STS-3c/1 (STM-1) synchronous
payload envelope.
• Inserts a register programmable path signal label (C2).
• Generates the transmit payload pointer (H1, H2) and inserts the path
overhead.
• Optionally inserts the 16 or 64 byte section trace (J0) sequence and the 16 or
64 byte path trace (J1) sequence from internal register banks.
• Optionally inserts externally generated path overhead bytes received via a
576 kbit/s serial interface.
• Optionally inserts externally generated data communication channels (D1-D3,
D4-D12) via a 192 kbit/s (D1-D3) serial stream and a 576 kbit/s (D4-D12)
serial stream.
• Optionally inserts externally generated section user channel (F1) and
externally generated orderwire channels (E1, E2) via three 64 kbit/s serial
interfaces.
• Optionally inserts externally generated transport overhead bytes received via
a 5.184 Mbit/s serial interface.
• Scrambles the transmitted STS-3c/1 (STM-1) stream and inserts the framing
bytes (A1, A2).
