4.2 ATM Interface
The ATM interface transfers transmit and receive cell data to the ATM device. The features of this interface are as
follows:
• Compliant with ATM Forum "UTOPIA 3 Physical Layer Interface (af-phy-0136.00)".
• 32-bit, 104 MHz LVTTL FIFO interface.
• Supports 52-byte and 56-byte cell format.
• Supports direct status indication and status poling.
• Executes a parity check on transmit data, generates and outputs a parity bit of receive data.
• Detects transmit/receive FIFO overflows.
• Selectable FIFO threshold condition for TXCLAV signal indicating an available area of transmit FIFO for each
port.
• 1K bytes transmit and receive FIFOs for each port.
• Supports an optional TAG field with transmit and receive cells.
