SONET/SDH PATH TERMINATING TRANSCEIVER
1 FEATURES
· Monolithic SONET/SDH Path Terminating Transceiver that terminates the path
overhead of one or three STS-1 (AU3) paths or a single STS-3c (AU4) path.
· Maps one or three STS-1 (AU3) payloads or a single STS-3c (AU4) payload
to system timing reference, accommodating plesiochronous timing offsets
between the references through pointer processing.
· Operates at 19.44 MHz or 6.48 MHz, processing a duplex 19.44 Mbyte/s or
6.48 Mbyte/s data stream.
· Supports line loopback from line side receive stream to transmit stream and
diagnostic loopback from ADD bus interface to DROP bus interface.
· Operates in conjunction with the PM5343 STXC, or with the PM5312 STTX
and PM5318 SIPO to form a complete physical interface up to photonics.
· Provides a generic 8-bit microprocessor bus interface for configuration,
control, and status monitoring.
· Low power, +5 Volt, CMOS technology, TTL compatible inputs and outputs.
· 160 pin plastic quad flat pack (PQFP) package.
1.1 The receiver section:
· Operates in STS-3 (AU3) or STS-3c (AU4) mode.
· Accepts a byte serial line side multiplex of three STS-1 (AU3) streams or a
single STS-3c (AU4) stream, interprets the STS (AU) pointer bytes (H1, H2,
and H3), and extracts the synchronous payload envelope(s) and inserts the
synchronous payload envelope(s) into a bus referenced to system timing,
using pointer processing.
· Extracts and processes the three STS-1 (AU3) path overhead streams or the
single STS-3c (AU4) path overhead stream.
· Detects loss of pointer (LOP).
· Detects loss of tributary multiframe (LOM).
· Detects path alarm indication signal (AIS).
