T8100 H.100/H.110 Interface and Time-Slot
Interchanger
Preliminary Data Sheet: DS98-195NTNB.
Change Affecting Page 15, Section 2.1.3 Address Mode Register
Problem:
There is a minor bug in the T8100. If a write is issued to the address mode register (AMR)
address 0x70 (local bus, holding registers, and reset), the T8100's RDY line gets stuck low (not
ready state).
Workaround:
To solve this, issue another write command to any of the four direct registers (MCR, LAR,
AMR, or IDR) and the RDY signal will reset.
Change Affecting Page 38, Section 2.4.2 Dividers and Rate Multipliers
There is an anomaly in the digital phase-lock loop (DPLL) performance of the device. The behavior affects all
versions of the T8100 but has been corrected in the T8100A, T8102, and T8105. This anomaly affects applica-
tions that use the DPLL for CT bus clock generation.
When used for clocking, the DPLL uses the 16.384 MHz internal oscillator to rate multiply an 8 kHz input sig-
nal. In order for the DPLL to lock to the 8.000000 kHz signal, the required internal oscillator frequency range
should be centered at 16.388 MHz. A frequency of 16.384 MHz is too low for the DPLL to perform properly.
If this crystal adaptation is used for the DPLL, there are several limitations. First, do not select the crystal as a
fallback clock source. When the crystal is a clock source, the generated clocks are all multiples of the crystal. In
that case, they will be offset by the same ratio as the crystal. Second, do not use TCLKOUT. It is also derived
from the crystal and will be offset by the same ratio. Third, the watchdogs will be slightly more sensitive due to
the increased clock frequency. In designs affected by these limitations, conversion to the T8100A is recom-
mended.

T8100
H.100/H.110 Interface and Time-Slot Interchanger
1 Product Overview
1.1 Introduction
Increasingly, enhanced telephony services are pro-
vided by equipment based on mass-market com-
puter-telephony architectures. The H.100 time-
division multiplexed (TDM) bus has emerged as the
industry standard used in these systems. The
Ambassador T8100 is a single device that provides a
complete interface for H.100/H.110-based systems.
The T8100 will support the newer bus standards,
H-
MVIP* and ECTF H.100, but remain downward
compatible with
MVIP-90 and Dialogic's
SC-Bus.
Data can be buffered in either minimum delay or con-
stant delay modes on a connection-by-connection
basis.
The T8100 will take advantage of new technology: it
is based on 0.35 micron feature sizes and a robust
standard-cell library. It utilizes associative memory
(content addressable memories [CAM]) in addition to
traditional static RAM and register file structures for
the connection and data memories. The T8100 oper-
ates on a single 3.3 V supply, but all inputs are 5 V
tolerant and standard TTL output levels are main-
tained.

1.4 Enhanced Local Stream Addressing
Local stream addressing has 1024 locations. Separate
connection and data memories maintain all necessary
information for local stream interconnections. The
streams may operate at maximum rate on eight physi-
cal inputs and eight physical outputs. Choices for
slower input or output rates allow enabling of additional
physical inputs or outputs for a maximum of 16 pins
each. Data rates are 2.048 Mbits/s, 4.096 Mbits/s, or
8.192 Mbits/s.
In addition to the enhanced serial streaming, the local
memories may be used for 8-line-serial-in/1-byte-paral-
lel-out, 1-byte-parallel-in/8-line-serial-out, or 1-byte-
parallel-in/1-byte-parallel-out options. All three data
rates are supported in the parallel modes. The
addresses for the local memories have been simplified
so that stream and time-slot designations are automati-
cally translated to the appropriate memory address,
regardless of rate or serial/parallel modes.
1.5 Full H.100 Stream Address Support
The T8100 provides access to the full 4096 H.100 bus
slots (32 streams x 128 slots) or any standard subset
(H-
MVIP has a maximum 24 streams x 128 time
slots, for example). The number of stored time-slot
addresses is limited to 256 at any one time, but these
may be updated on the fly. In addition, accesses to and
from the H.100 bus can be directed through the 1024
local stream/time slots, giving a total space of 5120
time slots. Data rates are programmable on each of
the 32 physical streams, selected in groups of four.
The rates are 2.048 Mbits/s, 4.096 Mbits/s, or
8.192 Mbits/s.

1.6 Onboard PLLs and Clock Monitors
The T8100 uses rate multipliers and state machines to
generate onboard frequencies for supporting the
H.100, H-
MVIP, MVIP, MC-1, and SC-Buses. Pins are
provided for coupling the internal clock circuitry with
commonly available clock adapters and jitter attenua-
tors. If external resources are not available, an internal
digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) can be used to gener-
ate all the bus frequencies and remain synchronized to
an 8 kHz reference. One of several clock input refer-
ence sources may be selected, and separate input-
active detection logic can identify the loss of the individ-
ual input references. The entire clocking structure oper-
ates from a 16.384 MHz crystal or external input.
1.7 Phase Alignment of Referenced and
Generated Frames
If this resource is selected, special control logic will cre-
ate bit-sliding in the data streams when the reference
frame and generated frame are out of phase. The bit-
sliding refers to removing a fraction of a bit time per
frame until the frames are in phase.
1.8 Interfaces
1.8.1 Microprocessors
The T8100 provides the user a choice of either
Motor-
ola or Intel interfacing through an 8-bit data bus, a 2-bit
address bus, and multifunction control pins. All access
to T8100 memory blocks and registers use indirect
addressing.
1.8.2 Framing Groups
Two groups of programmable framing signals are avail-
able. Each group is composed of 12 sequenced lines
operating in one of four modes. The T8100 supports
1-bit, 2-bit, 1-byte, and 2-byte pulse widths. Starting
position of the pulse sequences are also programma-
ble.
1.8.3 General-Purpose Register and I/O
A general-purpose register is provided as either a byte-
wide input or byte-wide output through a separate set
of pins.

1.10 Application Overview
The integration of computers and telecommunications
has enabled a wide range of new communications
applications and has fueled an enormous growth in
communications markets. A key element in the devel-
opment of computer-based communications equipment
has been the addition of an auxiliary telecom bus to
existing computer systems. Most manufacturers of
high-capacity, computer-based telecommunications
equipment have incorporated some such telecom
bus in their systems. Typically, these buses and bus
interfaces are designed to transport and switch
N x 64 kbits/s low-latency telecom traffic between
boards within the computer, independent of the com-
puter's I/O and memory buses. At least a half dozen of
these PC-based telecom buses emerged in the early
1990s for use within equipment based on ISA/EISA
and MCA computers.
With the advent of the H.100 bus specification by the
Enterprise Computer Telephony Forum, the computer-
telephony industry has agreed on a single telecom bus
for use with PCI and compact PCI computers. H.100
facilitates interoperation of components, thus providing
maximum flexibility to equipment manufacturers, value-
added resellers, system integrators, and others build-
ing computer-based telecommunications applications.

H.100/H.110 Interface and Time-Slot Interchanger
Ambassador T8100
2 Architecture and Functional Descrip-
tion
The T8100 is an H.100-compliant device that provides
a complete interface between the H.100 bus and a
wide variety of telephony interface components, pro-
cessors, and other circuits. The bus interface provides
all signals needed for the H.100 bus, the H-
MVIP and
MVIP-90 buses, or the SC-Bus. Local interfaces
include 16 serial inputs and 16 serial outputs based on
the Lucent Technologies Microelectronics Group con-
centration highway interface (CHI). Two built-in time-
slot interchangers are included. The first provides a
local switching domain with up to 1024 programmable
connections between time slots on the local CHI inputs
and outputs. The second supports up to 256 program-
mable connections between any time slot on the H.100
bus and any time slot in the local switching domain.
The
Ambassador is configured via a microprocessor
interface. This interface can also read and write time
slot and device data. Onboard clock circuitry, including
a DPLL, supports all H.100 clock modes including
MVIP and SC-Bus compatibility clocks.
The local CHI interfaces support PCM rates of
2.048 Mbits/s, 4.096 Mbits/s, and 8.192 Mbits/s. The
T8100 has internal circuitry to support either minimum
latency or multi-time-slot frame integrity. Frame integrity
is a requisite feature for applications that switch wide-
band data (ISDN H-channels). Minimum latency is
advantageous in voice applications.
The T8100 has four major sections:
s
Local bus--refers to the local streams.
s
H-Bus--refers to the H.100/H.110/H-
MVIP and
legacy streams.
s
Interface--refers to the microprocessor interface,
frame groups, and general-purpose I/O (GPIO).
s
Timing--the rate multipliers, DPLL, and clocking
functions.
Figure 3 shows a T8100 block diagram. The T8100
operates on a 3.3 V supply for both the core and I/Os,
though the I/Os are TTL compatible and 5 V tolerant.

2.1 Register/Memory Maps
In this section, a general overview of the registers and the indirect mapping to different memory spaces is
described. More detailed descriptions for using the registers in software can be found in Section 3.2 Basic Connec-
tions.
(Throughout this document, all registers are defined with the MSB on the left and the LSB on the right.)
2.1.1 Main Registers
The address bits are used to map a large memory space.
All registers default to 0 at powerup.

Description
7
MR
Master (Software) Reset. A high reinitializes the T8100 registers.
6
CER
Clock Error Reset. A high resets the error bits of the CLKERR registers.
5
SER
System Error Reset. A high resets the error bits of the SYSERR register. (Note that MR,
CER, and SER are automatically cleared by the T8100 after the requested reset is com-
plete.)
4
AP
Active Page. This bit identifies which of the double-buffered data memories are active. A
zero indicates buffer 0; a one indicates buffer 1. The AP identifies which data buffer is being
accessed during a write operation (i.e., input from local streams or input from H-Bus).
3
HBE
H-Bus Enable. On powerup or software reset, all H-Bus pins (including clocks) are disabled.
HBE must be set high to reenable the 3-stated buffers.
2
LBE
Local Bus Enable. Same function as HBE for local data outputs.
1
LCE
Local Clock Enable. Enables all other local functions: clocks, frame groups, etc. (Note that
the TCLKO is disabled during a Master Reset and is unaffected by HBE, LBE, or LCE,
though there are control bits for this signal in the CKP register, Section 2.4.6 Clock Control
Register Definitions.)
0
CB
CAM Busy. A status bit indicating microprocessor activity in any of the CAM blocks. A high
means that one (or more) of the CAMs is being accessed by the microprocessor. In most
cases, this bit will read low since there are many internal operational cycles dedicated to the
microprocessor, which allow it to finish quickly.

2.2 Local Bus Section
Figure 4 shows the local bus section function diagram.
Note:
Routing and MUXing for the H-Bus section is included since the H-Bus requires access to the converters
for local bus-to-H-Bus or H-Bus-to-local bus transfers (the H-Bus is discussed in Section 2.3 H-Bus Sec-
tion).
XCS is a pseudo serial stream, read out from the connection memory on each memory access. It is read out
directly, i.e., not passing through any parallel/serial converters or holding registers, so it precedes the connection
associated with it by one time slot.

tively, the connection memory and data memory are referred to as local memory since it is used for implementing
local-to-local switching only. Operation is similar to other time-slot interchangers. Data is written into the memory in
a fixed order and then read out according to the indirect addresses held in the connection memory. If any of the
connections on the T8100 are operating in constant frame delay (also called constant delay) mode, then the output
data is accessed from a second block of data memory. The input data will not be output until the next frame bound-
ary has been crossed and the memory blocks have swapped functions. Figure 5 shows an example of a set of con-
nections which create the delay types referred to as minimum delay and constant delay.

2.2.2 Serial and Parallel
Nominally, the memory will be accessed by serial data
streams which will require conversion of serial-to-paral-
lel (S/P) for write accesses and parallel-to-serial (P/S)
for read accesses. Since the local memory can have up
to 16 serial inputs and 16 serial outputs, there will be a
maximum of 16 S/P converters and 16 P/S converters
operating simultaneously. If desired, eight of the S/P
converters, local inputs 0--7, can be bypassed for a
direct parallel write to the data memory. Likewise, eight
of the P/S converters, local outputs 0--7, can be
bypassed for a direct parallel read of the data memory.
Unused S/P or P/S converters are nonfunctional in
these modes.
Note: The normal serial-to-serial local streaming is not
available simultaneously with any of the parallel
modes.
2.2.3 Data Rates and Time-Slot Allocation
At its maximum, the T8100 will be able to process
1024 nonblocking-to-local connections. The data rate
8.192 Mbits/s corresponds to 128 time slots,
4.096 Mbits/s corresponds to 64 time slots, and
2.048 Mbits/s corresponds to 32 time slots. Since dif-
ferent data rates require different amounts of memory,
the local memory can be filled in a number of ways. A
nonblocking switch permits any time slot on any stream
to be switched to another time slot on any stream in
any direction.
The local streams are arranged in three groups: A, B,
and C. Group A corresponds to the local data pins 0--
7, group B with local data pins 8--11, and group C with
local data pins 12--15. The groups may be operated at
any of the three data rates: 2.048 Mbits/s,
4.096 Mbits/s, or 8.192 Mbits/s; however, group B is
activated only when group A is operating below
8.192 Mbits/s. Likewise, group C is activated when
group B is operating below 8.192 Mbits/s.
Note: In order to efficiently fill the memory, the mem-
ory locations are read or filled in the same order
regardless of their activation or rate.
The streams are scanned in intervals equal to
8.192 Mbits/s time slots: first group A from 0 through 7,
then group B from 8 through 11, then group C from 12
through 15. If a group is active, the data is input from or
output to the streams in that group. If a group is operat-
ing below 8.192 Mbits/s and has already been scanned
(at the 8.192 Mbits/s rate), then the data transfer opera-
tion is ignored.
For T8100 addressing, the user directly provides
stream and time-slot information. The T8100 will map
this into the physical memory, regardless of which
stream groups are active or at what rate. While this
makes programming simpler, it makes the internal
operation more difficult to understand. Several dia-
grams are required to illustrate how the memory utiliza-
tion works.
Unassigned time slots in the local output section are 3-
stated. Therefore, multiple lines can be connected
together.

Figure 6 below shows the overall structure of the local memory:
Note: Both the connection and two data memories are arranged in four blocks of 256 locations each
(i.e., 4 x [4 x 64]).
The arrangement is important to establishing a memory fill pattern which supports all of the various groups and
rates. The rows of each memory, which are split into four groups of 4, correspond to the 16 streams. The columns
correspond to 64 time-slot addresses.

Examples of how the memory is filled are found in Figure 7.
Note: Again, the user needs only to provide stream and time-slot addresses; the T8100 will generate the internal
memory addresses.
Both the connection and data memories are filled using the same algorithm. In the case where group C is running
at 8.192 Mbits/s, group B is at 4.096 Mbits/s (or 2.048 Mbits/s), and group A is at 2.048 Mbits/s, then an additional
virtual memory space of 4 x 64 locations is created by the T8100 from unused locations in other parts of the mem-
ory.

In any of the parallel modes (S/P, P/S, P/P), the local memories treat parallel data as a series of sequential time
slots (i.e., all one stream): 8.192 Mbits/s corresponds to 1024 time slots, 4.096 Mbits/s corresponds to 512 time
slots, and 2.048 Mbits/s corresponds to 256 time slots. The memory locations are scanned in order from 0 to 1023
at 8.192 Mbits/s, even locations are scanned at 4.096 Mbits/s (odd locations are skipped), and at 2.048 Mbits/s,
every second even location is scanned.

2.2.4 LBS: Local Stream Control, 0x0C
The normal mode of operation for local streams is serial in/serial out, but parallel modes are available. Modes and
data rates are controlled by register LBS. The mapping is shown below. See the preceding pages for a full descrip-
tion.
Table 38. LBS: Local Stream Control, 0x0C
There are no additional registers required for addressing the local memory other than the main address registers
(discussed in Section 2.1 Register/Memory Maps). The data and connection memory locations can be queried for
their contents by indirect reads through the main address registers; however, the memory locations are referred to
by the stream and time-slot designators, rather than physical address locations, to simplify the queries.

2.2.5 State Counter Operation
All operations are synchronized to the master state counter. The state counter is in turn synchronized to the inter-
nal frame signal and driven by an internal 65.536 MHz clock. In normal operation, the internal frame and clock are
synchronized to either the H-Bus or trunks (see Section 2.4 Clocking Section, for a more detailed explanation of
clocking options). The local memory states are illustrated in Figure 8. The state counter is a modulo-8192 counter
(7 bits for time slot, 4 bits for stream, 2 bits for state function) which can also be reset and loaded with other values
for diagnostic purposes (as described in Section 2.8 Testing and Diagnostics). The H-Bus memories are also refer-
enced to this state counter so that T8100 maintains synchronization with the H-Bus to ensure proper access to the
bus as well as ensure synchronization between the H-Bus and local memory structures. The H-Bus memories are
discussed in Section 2.3 H-Bus Section.

2.3 H-Bus Section
2.3.1 Memory Architecture
To access the H-Bus, the T8100 uses a new twist
on an existing approach to accessing large address
spaces: the data is stored in an independent double-
buffered SRAM which acts like the local data memory,
but the connection information for the H-Bus is held in
three 256 location CAMs. Two CAMs are used for two
groups of 16 H-Bus streams each, and one CAM for all
16 local input/output pairs. Each CAM compares
16 streams for read and write and allows access time
to the host microprocessor for updates to the connec-
tions. Thus, each stream is allotted three operations
per 976 ns time slot, so there are a maximum of 48
accesses per CAM per time slot. The CAMs must oper-
ate for at least 20.34 ns/access* or faster. The selected
technology operates at 13 ns/access maximum, so an
internal clock speed of 15.26 ns (65.536 MHz) is used.
For the following discussions, the reader should refer to
Figure 9. The combined comparison plus retrieval
operations take 2 CAM cycles, leaving little time for
microprocessor updates. To circumvent this, a separate
SRAM (actually, a register file) is tied to each CAM.
Each entry of this register file is associated with an
entry in the CAM on a location-by-location basis. (For
example, physical address 0xA7 in the CAM is coupled
with physical address 0xA7 of the register file.) The
CAMs will have only the comparand field for stream
and time-slot addresses, and the associated register
files will hold the data field, which is comprised of a tag
(an indirect pointer to the double-buffered data SRAM)
and some control bits. Using the associated SRAM
allows the operations to be pipelined so that the data
retrieval occurs while the CAMs are doing the next
comparison. The SRAM is double-buffered to permit
constant delay or minimum delay on a connection-by-
connection basis, as described in Section 2.2.1 Con-
stant Frame Delay and Minimum Delay Connections
and as illustrated in Figure 5.
* The H-Bus presents a unique set of problems. A full nonblocking,
double-buffered switch of 5120 locations has significant barriers in
size and in control of memory access time. Further, the traffic
between the local bus and H-Bus is generally limited to a small
number of time slots at any given moment (120 full duplex is typical,
although we are permitting 128 duplex or 256 simplex connections),
but the requirement to access any time slot out of the full range of
5120 locations remains. To solve this, content addressable memo-
ries (CAM) are utilized. They provide access to the full 5120 loca-
tions through an encoded width (13 bits), but require a depth equal
to the maximum number of connections required (256).

The maximum number of connections is set by the number of locations in the data SRAM and the CAMs. In this
implementation, 256 simplex connections are permitted. Since one connection requires two CAM entries pointing
to a common data location, the maximum number of connections could be reduced to 128 simplex if all connection
entries reside within only one CAM. The maximum number of connections is increased above 256 simplex if the
connection type is broadcast, i.e., from one to many.

2.3.2 CAM Operation and Commands
The three CAMs operate in parallel. Each CAM's com-
parand field is compared with the state counter (Sec-
tion 2.2.5 State Counter Operation) which holds the
existing stream and time-slot value*. If there is a match,
the CAM issues a hit. If there is more than one match,
then it is considered a multiple hit. Likewise, no match
is a miss. As a part of the state counter, a bit is toggled
for read/write. The read/write bit is stored in the CAM,
so it becomes part of the value to be compared. If the
comparison for a write yields a hit, then there is a
request for write access to the data memory for the
incoming data from the H-Bus. If the comparison for a
read yields a hit, then there is a request for a read
access from the data memory for outgoing data to the
H-Bus. Any multiple hit within one CAM block is treated
as a controlled error although it is not reported. The
action taken is to acknowledge the hit which corre-
sponds to the lowest physical address of the CAM. A
miss implies no action. A multiple hit is assigned to be
more than one valid connection. These are prioritized
such that the match with the lowest physical address
(i.e., closest to CAM location 0x0) is the address which
is processed. Thus, errors are handled in a controlled
manner. Multiple hits can occur because multiple loca-
tions are assigned to the same time slot. Bad software
can cause this problem. A controlled error has no
impact on performance, and the CAM contents are not
changed as a result of the error. The data SRAMs are
actually dual-port register files which will process both
writes and reads on each clock cycle of the clock. The
T8100 can process a read and write request from each
CAM and two microprocessor requests during the time
of one address comparison. Due to the fixed order of
operations, the data SRAM cannot overflow or under-
flow like the CAMs. The timing is shown in Figure 10.
* As mentioned in Section 2.2.5 State Counter Operation, for each
stream and time-slot value, the state counter goes through four
functional states for each stream and time slot. These states are
used to synchronize the CAMs, pipeline register files, data SRAMs,
and microprocessor accesses just as they are used to synchronize
local memory operations and the frame groups. (Microprocessor
accesses to the memories are initiated asynchronously, though the
actual microprocessor cycles are synchronous.)

2.3.2 CAM Operation and Commands (continued)
A number of commands are available to control the
CAMs. Connections can be made or broken, entry data
can be searched for, individual locations may be read
or cleared, or the CAMs can be reset. The address
mode register (AMR) (see Section 2.1 Register/Mem-
ory Maps) is used to issue the CAM control commands.
Some commands require the use of the lower address
register (LAR), and some use the IDR as a transfer reg-
ister.
The tags in each CAM's associated register file refer-
ence the storage location of the data being transferred,
so each CAM/tag location also has control information.
The three control bits are read-to/write-from data
SRAM (i.e., a direction bit, located in the CAM and
used during the comparison operations), a pattern
mode enable, which bypasses the data SRAM and out-
puts the tag directly into the specified time slot for
writes to the bus, and an SRAM buffer select that con-
trols the minimum delay or constant delay select,
equivalent to the local memory's selection of minimum
or constant delay.
In addition, the CAM carries a valid entry bit. This is an
identifier for the status of the CAM (and corresponding
register file) location. If the bit is low, as all validity bits
are after a reset, then the location is available to be
written into. When data is written into a location, then
this bit is set, indicating that this is a valid entry. If spe-
cific data is no longer valid, such as when a connection
is broken, then the bit is cleared.
The CAM commands make use of either one or two
cycles. The two cycles are described pictorially in Fig-
ure 11. The reader will note that matching and retrieval
are actually separate cycles. The need for two cycles
accounts for the requirement of the pipeline register
files.
Detailed descriptions of the commands follow:
The basic make connection command is referred to as
MKCn, where n is the CAM designator*. The MKCn
uses two CAM cycles: first, the CAM is searched to
determine where to find the next free location (as deter-
mined by the validity bits), and during the second cycle,
the next empty location is written into. The MKCn com-
mand uses holding registers which convey the connec-
tion information to the CAM and its associated register
file. The three holding registers contain the lower con-
nection address (i.e., time slot), the upper connection
address (stream plus control bits), and the tag. An
attempt to write to a full CAM (all 256 locations fully
occupied) results in an overflow error flagged through
the system error register, SYSERR (see Section 2.6
Error Registers).
Note: A single MKCn command only specifies one half
of a connection. The MKCn specifies the con-
nection address and a pointer to the data mem-
ory, but a second connection address and
pointer to the same data memory location must
also be provided for a complete connection.
* The H-Bus CAM covering the 16 even-numbered H-Bus streams is
designated E, the H-Bus CAM covering the 16 odd-numbered H-
Bus streams is designated O, and the CAM that services the 16
local stream pairs is designated L.

2.3.2 CAM Operation and Commands (continued)
If the user determines that a stream/time slot is no
longer valid, then the validity bit may be cleared by pre-
senting the connection address to the CAM and by
using the BKCn, break connection, command. The
connection that the user intends to break, which con-
sists of the time slot, and the stream plus control bits,
but not the tag, is transferred to the holding registers
prior to issuing this command. This is a two-cycle com-
mand: during the first cycle, the connection address is
presented to the CAM to identify which physical loca-
tion holds that connection address, and then, in the
second cycle, the validity bit is cleared for the identified
physical location. If there is a miss, it flags a no-match
error through the underflow bit in SYSERR.
Note: A complete connection break requires two
BKCn commands, one for each half of the con-
nection, as with the MKCn command.
The clear location command, CLLn, is a one-cycle
command. The LAR contains the physical address (i.e.,
the physical CAM location) to be cleared. When it is
presented to the CAM, the validity bit is cleared, return-
ing the location to an empty status (i.e., it becomes
available for new make connection commands). The
CLLn can also be regarded as the second cycle of a
break connection command. CLLn is valuable if several
outputs are driven from a common input (broadcast)
and the user wishes to break one of the output connec-
tions, but leave the others intact. When the physical
location in the CAM is identified, either by software
tracking or by use of the find entry command (later in
this section), then the CLLn can be issued.
If the user wishes to poll the CAM for its contents, then
the RDCn or read CAM command can be used to
query a particular location (0--255) in a specific block
using the LAR for the location address. The contents of
the CAM and tag location are transferred to the holding
registers, and then the time slot, stream plus control,
and tag are returned (in sequence) from three consec-
utive IDR reads. The actual RDCn operation is one-
cycle.
The converse of the RDCn is the FENn, or find entry
command. It can be thought of as the first cycle of a
BKCn command. Only time slot and stream plus con-
trol bits are necessary for identifying the location. The
tag is not needed. The value returned to the IDR is the
physical location of the entry in the CAM block, if it is
found. If the entry is not found, then the underflow error
bit in the SYSERR register will be set. FENn is a one-
cycle command.
RSCn is the reset CAM command, and this renders all
locations in one CAM block invalid. This can be consid-
ered a CLLn for all locations in the CAM. Two special
resets are the RCH command, which resets only the
holding registers, and the CI command, which resets
all three CAM blocks and the holding registers. All
resets are one-cycle.
2.3.3 H-Bus Access
There are 32 bidirectional pins available for accessing
the H-Bus. The direction of the pins is selected by the
CAM read and write bits. Data rates for the pins are
selected in accordance with the H.100/H.110 specifica-
tions. Unassigned time slots on the H-bus are 3-stated.
Details about rate selection are provided below. Two
bits of the 13-bit address are used to select the CAM
block as indicated in Figure 9. The remaining
11 bits plus a read/write bit form a comparand that is
stored in a CAM location.

2.3 H-Bus Section
(continued)
2.3.4 L-Bus Access
The input and output of the CAM have the appropriate
links to the local stream pins so that the H-Bus streams
may be routed to and from the local bus streams. The
LBS register (Section 2.2.4 LBS: Local Stream Control,
0x0C) programs the local stream rates even if
accessed by the CAMs. To address the local bus CAM
block, the two most significant address bits of the phys-
ical address are set to the appropriate values as
described in Figure 9. The other bits form the com-
parand along with a read/write bit. When the CAM is
outputting data to the local bus, it has priority over the
local bus memory. In other words, if both the local bus
and H-Bus access the same local stream and time slot,
the H-Bus data memory will provide the actual data,
not the local connection.
2.3.5 H-Bus Rate Selection and Connection
Address Format
Operating rates are selected in a manner similar to the
local side. Two registers, HSH and HSL, shown below,
define the operation of the 32 streams. Again, SGx
refers to stream groups: HSH holds SGh--SGe where
SGh programs streams 28--31, SGg programs
streams 24--27, SGf programs streams 20--23, and
SGe programs streams 16--19. HSL holds SGd--SGa
where SGd programs streams 12--15, SGc programs
streams 8--11, SGb programs streams 4--7, and SGa
programs streams 0--3.
SGn = 00, 3-state
SGn = 01, 2.048 Mbits/s
SGn = 10, 4.096 Mbits/s
SGn = 11, 8.192 Mbits/s
A quick summary:
The CAMs and the pipeline register files operate as
connection memories. The key CAM operation is based
on 11 bits of stream and time slot plus 1 bit of read/
write in the CAM locations compared against the state
counter which tracks the current stream and time slots
(Section 2.2.5 State Counter Operation). Each H-Bus
CAM is looking for matches on 16 of the 32 H-Bus
streams, and the local CAM is looking for a match on
16 local inputs and 16 local outputs per time slot.
Thirteen bits are required to cover the 5120 possible
time slots, but the MSB, LSB combination is used to
determine which H-Bus CAM is accessed: even H-Bus
(0, 0), odd H-Bus (0, 1). The local H-Bus is accessed
by selecting the upper 2 MSBs, both equal to 1. The
CAM address can be thought of as following this for-
mat:
This format is rate independent. The CAM select field is
part of the address mode register (AMR) for CAM com-
mands (Section 2.1.3 Address Mode Register and Sec-
tion 2.3.2 CAM Operation and Commands). Program-
ming examples for setting up connections can be found
in Section 3.2 Basic Connections.
2.4 Clocking Section
The clocking section performs several functions which
are detailed in the following paragraphs. In general,
when the T8100 is a bus master, it will have one or
more companion devices which provide the basic clock
extraction and jitter attenuation from a source (such as
a trunk). As a slave, the T8100 can work independently
of, or in conjunction with, external resources. Examples
of different operating modes are provided in Appendix
A. Refer to Figure 12 for a block diagram of the T8100
clocking section.
When the T8100 is used as a bus master, an input
clock of a tolerance of
32 ppm is required. This can
come from several sources. For example:
s
32 ppm crystal tolerance is the suggested value if
either the DPLL is used or fallback to the oscillator is
enabled while mastering the bus. Otherwise, a crys-
tal with a lesser tolerance can be used.
s
If a crystal is not used, a 16.384 MHz (
32 ppm toler-
ance or less) signal must be provided to the XTALIN
pin, and XTALOUT should be left unconnected.
s
The L_REF inputs can also be used and must con-
form to
32 ppm in a bus master situation.

2.4.1 Clock and NETREF Selection
The inputs to the T8100 clocking come from three
selectors. The clock selector and frame selector oper-
ate from a common set of selection options in register
CKM (see Section 2.4.6 Clock Control Register Defini-
tions for register details), where FRAMEA is selected
along with clock C8A and FRAMEB is selected along
with clock C8B. Typically, one of the local references
(LREF[0:7]) will be selected when the T8100 is operat-
ing as a master, though the local oscillator is also avail-
able. As a slave, the most common selections will be
one of the bus types. Each bus type has a state
machine associated with it for determining the frame
sync. All clock inputs are sampled to check for proper
switching. If the expected clock edge does not occur,
and there is no switching on CT_NETREF for 125
s, a
bit corresponding to the errant clock is set in the CLK-
ERR register (see Section 2.6 Error Registers for more
details). NETREF can be created from one of the local
references or from the oscillator independent of the
clock generation.
2.4.2 Dividers and Rate Multipliers
The clock and NETREF selections are routed to divid-
ers*. In the case of NETREF, the divider is
usually used to reduce a bit rate clock to 8 kHz,
so the most common divisors will be 1, 193
(1.544 MHz/8 kHz), and 256 (2.048 MHz/8 kHz),
although a full range of values (from 1--256) is possi-
ble. For the clock selector, the signal will most often be
routed through the main divider when the T8100 is
operating as a master or through the resource divider
when operating as a slave. Both the main and resource
dividers are fully programmable.
The ultimate destination for the main or resource
divider is intended to be PLL #1. PLL #1 accepts either
a 2.048 MHz or 4.096 MHz input and will rate multiply
up to 65.536 MHz. The divisor of the main or resource
dividers is chosen in conjunction with the rate select of
the PLL, i.e., a divisor which generates a 4.096 MHz
output and a rate selection of x16, or a divisor which
generates a 2.048 MHz output and a rate selection of
x32. This provides a great deal of flexibility in adapting
to a variety of (external) clock adapters and jitter atten-
uators while acting as a master, as well as slaving to
several bus types.
A digital PLL that can rate multiply to either 2.048 MHz
or 4.096 MHz from an 8 kHz source in the absence of
an external clock adapter is also provided. PLL #1 can
be bypassed for diagnostic purposes or if an external
clock adapter is used that provides a high-speed output
(65.536 MHz). The input to the DPLL is for an 8 kHz
signal only.
A second rate multiplier is provided for supporting T1
applications. It is optimized around either a 1.544 MHz
or 3.088 MHz input rate which multiplies to 24.704 MHz
and is then divided down to provide 50% duty cycle
clocks of 12.352 MHz, though the direct 24.704 MHz is
available as well. A bypass is provided so that an exter-
nal clock can be buffered through the TCLK output. The
internal oscillator or the various outputs derived from
PLL #1 can also be selected for the TCLK output.
* If the A clocks have been selected as the clock source through the
CKM register (described in Section 2.4.6 Clock Control Register
Definitions), then the CT_C8A is the signal sent to the main and
resource dividers; likewise, selecting B clocks results in sending
CT_C8B; the
MVIP selection sends /C4; the H-MVIP selection
sends the recovered /C16 (derived from differential inputs); select-
ing SC2 sends SCLKX2; and SC4/8 sends SCLK to the dividers.

2.4.3 State Machines
The purpose of the state machines is to generate
internal control signals for the remainder of the T8100
circuitry and to provide all bus clocks when operating
as a master. The state machines operate from the
65.536 MHz clock generated by PLL #1, and they are
time referenced to the frame sync derived from the
selected clock and frame inputs. As a master, the time
sync is based on the T8100's own generated frame.
The dominant internal control signals are a noninverted
32.768 MHz clock, an inverted 16.384 MHz state clock,
and a noninverted 122 ns wide sync pulse centered
around the beginning of a frame. The memories are
synchronized to the 65.536 MHz clock.
2.4.4 Bit Sliding (Frame Locking)
The T8100 generates its own frame signal based on
the incoming clock and frame references and its gener-
ated clock signals. When slaving, it is sometimes nec-
essary to align the edges of this generated frame
signal to the incoming frame reference.
To accomplish this, the T8100 will compare the
referenced frames with the current state of its clock
state machine, and if the difference exceeds one
65.536 MHz clock cycle, the entire stream will have a
fraction of a bit time removed from each frame; this is
referred to as bit sliding. The process will repeat until
the measurements fall within one clock cycle. The
actual bit sliding will take place by reducing the gener-
ated frame by one 65.536 MHz clock cycle at the
beginning of the frame. This means that the frame
edges will phase-align at the rate of approximately
15.26 ns per frame. The maximum phase difference is
slightly less than one frame or 124.985 s. Thus, it will
require approximately 8000 frames, or 1 second, to
phase-align the frame. This is also mean time interval
error (MTIE) compliant; performing phase adjustment
of 162 ns per 1.326 ms of total sample time. Refer to
the MTIE specifications document (ATT 62411).
The alternatives to bit sliding are snap alignment and
no alignment. Snap alignment refers to an instanta-
neous phase alignment, i.e., a reset at the frame
boundary. This mode is common to other devices. If no
alignment is chosen, the T8100's generated frame is
frequency-locked to the incoming frame sync, but not
phase-aligned.
2.4.5 Clock Fallback
The following conditions must be met before fallback is
initiated:
s
Fallback must be enabled in register CKS.
s
Failure of one or more of the clocks selected through
the CKSEL bits in the CKM register.
s
All clocks which comprise the selection from CKSEL
must be unmasked in register CKW (see Section 2.6
Error Registers).
The T8100 contains a fallback register which enables a
backup set of controls for the clock resources during a
clock failure. In addition, a fallback state machine pro-
vides some basic decision-making for controlling some
of the clock outputs when the feature is enabled. While
slaving to the bus, the primary course of action in fall-
back is the swap between the A-clocks and B-clocks as
the primary synchronization sources. A slave may
become a master only under software control; i.e.,
there is no automatic promotion mechanism. As a mas-
ter, the T8100 can detect its own failures and remove
its clocks from the bus. If it detects a failure on the other
main set (e.g., B master detects failures on the A mas-
ter), then it can assume the role as the primary syn-
chronization source by driving all compatibility clocks
(H-
MVIP and SC-Bus). Clock failures are flagged
through the CLKERR1 and CLKERR2 registers (Sec-
tion 2.6 Error Registers). Additional fallback details are
discussed in relationship to the clock registers in the
next section. The divide-by-4 block for XTALIN, shown
in Figure 12, is used only for fallback. See Figure 13 for
a diagram of the basic state machine which controls
the A, B, and C (compatibility) clocks.

Table 39. CKM: Clocks, Main Clock Selection, 0x00
The first register, 0x00, is the clock main (CKM) register. There are ten registers to control the various aspects of
clocking.
* Selecting A clocks synchronizes the T8100 to CT_C8A and /CT_FRAMEA; selecting B clocks synchronizes the T8100 to CT_C8B and
/CT_FRAMEB;
MVIP uses /C4, C2, and /FR_COMP; H-MVIP uses /C16+/, /C4, C2, and /FR_COMP; SC2 uses SCLKX2 and /FR_COMP;
SC4/8 requires SCLK, SCLKX2, and /FR_COMP. MC-1 fallback clocks use the same inputs and state machine as the A clocks and B clocks
with an inversion selected from register CKP. A pictorial view of the various clocks may be seen in Section 4.6.1 Clock Alignment.

The CCD bit is the compatibility clock direction. This controls the I/O for the compatibility
clocks /C16+/, /C4, C2, SCLK, SCLKX2, and /FR_COMP (compatibility frame). The user can
think of the CCD bit (in some respects) as a master/slave select for the compatibility clocks,
though other registers require proper setup to establish true master or slave operation. The
T8100 will assume control of this bit during a fallback if the previously designated compatibility
clock master fails.
CCD = 0,
Slave, monitors compatibility signals
CCD = 1,
Master, drives compatibility signals
Note:
If bit 4 of the programmable clocks register, CKP, is low, then the state machines of the
A clock and B clock will assume this is an MC-1 system and interpret the clocks as
/C4(L/R) and FRAME(L/R). If this bit is high, then it interprets the clocks as C8(A/B)
and FRAME(A/B).

enable these output pairs independently. The C8C4 pin selects 8.192 MHz or 4.096 MHz sig-
nals to be output on C8A and C8B (for supporting for either ECTF or MC-1* applications).

Table 43. CKS: Clocks, Secondary (Fallback) Selection, 0x04
Clock register 0x04 is CKS, the secondary clock selection register. This is also referred to as fallback. Along with
programming the CKS register, CKW and CKS should be programmed last. The register is defined as follows:
* This bypasses the CRS/FRS multiplexer and is the default condition. It is equivalent to letting the T8100 free run on a clock failure. It assumes
PLL #1 has been set for x16. If PLL #1 is set for x32, then use FCSEL = 8 kHz local reference, FRS = 10, and FTS = 10.

7--6 FRS provides an alternate clock resource selection. FTS determines the basic fallback mode.
FF forces the use of the FRS, FTS, and FCSEL. FCSEL is used to select an alternate synchro-

FRS forces the clock resource selector to choose a new source for PLL #1.

Note: The decode is the same as that of the CRS bits (in the clock resource register, CKR).
FTS
5--4 For fallback type select, the two FTS bits are used to enable the automatic fallback. These work
in conjunction with the various clocks as described in Section 2.4.5 Clock Fallback. If the C8
input select (C8IS of the CKP register above) is low, then the T8100 is assumed to be in an
MC-1 system. Thus, the A/B clocks can be interpreted as /C4L (or /C4R) for C8A and /C4R (or
/C4L) for C8B.
FTS = 00,
Fallback from main clock to the oscillator divided by 4* when main clock fails.
(Main clock determined by CKSEL bits of the CKM register.)
FTS = 01,
Fallback disabled; this is not recommended for operation, it is intended for ini-
tialization and diagnostic purposes only.
FTS = 10,
Fallback from main selection to secondary source (FCSEL).
FTS = 11,
Fallback from A or B clock (ECTF/MC-1) to secondary; this also enables the
fallback state machine.
When one of the selected bits goes high in the CLKERR register (i.e., clock failure, see Section
2.6 Error Registers), then clocks are changed to the selection indicated by FCSEL, the A or B
clocks are disabled (if applicable), and the compatibility clocks are either driven or disabled (if
applicable). Note that the change is "sticky"; once the fallback has occurred, it will stay in its
new state until the system is reprogrammed. Clearing the CLKERR registers through the MCR
(Section 2.1.2 Master Control and Status Register) clears the fallback condition. A bit in the
SYSERR register will also note when a fallback has occurred.

2.4.7 CKMD, CKND, CKRD: Clocks, Main, NETREF,

The remaining clock registers are used to program the
three dividers. The main divider is programmed
through CKMD; the NETREF divider, through CKND;
and the resource divider, through CKRD. The dividers
are fully programmable, but only binary divides (1, 2, 4,
8, etc.) and divide by 193 produce 50% duty-cycle out-
puts. All other divisors will produce a pulse equal to
one-half of a (selected) clock cycle in width.
0x00 => Divide by 1 (bypass divider)
0x01 => Divide by 2
:
0xC0 => Divide by 193
:
0xFF => Divide by 256
In general, the register value is the binary equivalent of
the divisor-minus-one; e.g., an intended divisor of 193
is reduced by 1 to 192, so the register is loaded with
the binary equivalent of 192 which is 0xC0.
2.5 Interface Section
2.5.1 Microprocessor Interface
The grouping of the read, write, chip select, and
address latch enable signals, along with the data bus
and the address bus, permit access to the T8100 using
Intel nonmultiplexed interface (ALE = low), Motorola
nonmultiplexed interface (ALE = high), or
Intel multi-
plexed interface (ALE = active). ALE controls the micro-
processor mode. All control and status registers and
data and connection memory accesses are controlled
through this interface. All accesses are indirect, follow-
ing the pin descriptions in Table 1 and Table 2. Pro-
gramming examples and a more detailed discussion of
the indirect accesses can be found in Section 3 Using
the T8100.

2.5.2 General-Purpose Register
A simple, general-purpose I/O register is available. The
GPR has eight dedicated pins to the T8100. A write to
the register forces it to operate as an output. It remains
as an output until a read from the register is performed
(which 3-states the output). The register powers up in
the input state with a cleared register. The GPR corre-
sponds with I/O pins GP[0:7]. GP6 and GP7 are
unavailable if bit 5 of register CKN is low (see Section
2.4.6 Clock Control Register Definitions).
2.5.3 Framing Groups
Two groups of frame pulses are available. Each frame
group consists of 12 lines which are enabled sequen-
tially after a programmed starting point. They are
denoted as group A and group B. This section
describes framing group A. Framing group B is made
up of similar registers. Each frame group is controlled
by a pair of registers: FRHA and FRLA control the
spacing of the 12 frame pulses, their pulse width,
polarity, and the offset of the first pulse from the frame
boundary.

2.5.3 Framing Groups (continued)
The 12 outputs of the frame group are pulsed in
sequence, one every 8 bit times, where the bit time is
set by the rate option. Thus, the rate option controls the
spacing between output pulses. The pulse width is set
by the type option, and the pulse polarity is set by the
FAI bit. Note that double byte-wide types will produce
overlapping pulses.
The remaining bits (3 hi-start bits in FRHA and 8 bits of
FRHB) make up an 11-bit start address that sets the
offset of the group's first output (pin FGA0) relative to
the frame boundary. The offset is in increments of
61 ns (1/16.384 MHz). Thus, 2
11
values corresponding
to the 11-bit start address allow programming offsets
from 0 ns to 125
s. Notice that the resolution is less
than 1 bit. For example, if the frame group clock is pro-
grammed to 2.048 MHz, the resolution is 0.125 of a bit.
The frame boundary, shown in Figure 19 through Fig-
ure 21, is the point where /CT_FRAME is low and
CT_C8 is starting its low-to-high transition.
At zero offset, the rising edge of the first frame group
output is coincident with the rising edge of the 8 MHz,
4 MHz, and 2 MHz of the L_SC[3:0] clocks that occur in
the center of the CT_FRAME. This defines the start of
the frame, and the start of the first bit of the first time
slot on both the CT bus and local input and local output
buses.
In addition to sequenced pulses, the frame groups can
be used as simple programmed output registers. When
group A is used as a programmed output, the bits are
sent from the FRLA [0x20] and FRHA [0x21] registers.
Bits [0:7] of the programmed output come from bits
[0:7] of FRLA [0x20]. Bits [8:10] of the programmed
output come from the high start (bits [0:2]) of FRHA
[0x21], and bit 11 of the programmed output comes
from the FAI bit (bit 3) of FRHA [0x21]. When group B is
used as a programmed output, bits 0:7 of the output
come from bits 0:7 of separate register FRPL [0x24],
and bits [8:11] of the output come from bits 0:3 of
another register FRPH [0x25]. The upper nibble of
FRPH [0x25] also has output routing functions associ-
ated with it. Register FRPH [0x25] is illustrated below;
see Figure 14 for a diagram of the selection options.

2.6 Error Registers
Four error registers are present in the T8100:
s
CLKERR1 [0x28]
s
CLKERR2 [0x29]
s
CKW [0x2B]
s
SYSERR [0x2A]
When programming the clock registers, writing to CKW
and CKS should be programmed last.
These are the clock error, watchdog enable, and sys-
tem error registers. The CLKERR1 register is used to
indicate failing clocks, and the CLKERR2 indicates
whether the failure is permanent or transient in nature.
If the clocks fail, i.e., disappear or momentarily drop
out, then corresponding bits in both registers will be
set. If the clock is reestablished, i.e., a transient error,
then the T bit(s) will clear, but the E bit(s) will remain
set. All of the E bits are ORed together and drive the
CLKERR pin.
The clocks listed above are sampled by the
16.384 MHz internal clock. Effectively, each clock has a
watchdog. If the clock is switching, the watchdog
clears. If the clocks stop, then the watchdog sets the
appropriate E and T bits. If the clock is reestablished,
then the E bits remain stuck, but the T bits clear with
the watchdog. Since fallback is triggered on the E bits,
a transient clock can force a fallback.
Table 48. CLKERR1 and CLKERR2: Error Indicator
and Current Status, 0x28 and 0x29
Table 48 describes both CLKERR1 and CLKERR2:
The CKW register works in conjunction with the two
registers above and with the clock circuitry. It is used to
enable the watchdogs for the clock lines. CKW uses the
same mapping as CLKERR1 and CLKERR2, so, for
example, a high in bit 7 will enable the watchdogs for
CT_C8A and /CT_FRAMEA. CKW functions as a
masking register for CLKERR1 and CLKERR2. If the
appropriate bit is not set, then a failing clock will not be
reported.
The SYSERR register is shown below, the bits are
ORed together with the CLKERR1 bits which, in turn,
drives the SYSERR pin. The SYSERR bits are sticky
as are the CLKERR1 bits so they must be reset by
clearing the register by setting a bit in the MCR (Sec-
tion 2.1 Register/Memory Maps).
Table 49. SYSERR: System Error Register, 0x2A
Table 49 describes SYSERR:
* This error bit is selective. It will only flag an error if the clocks that
fail correspond to the selected clock mode. For example, if
MVIP
mode is selected (in register CKM), the proper fallback mode has
been set (in register CKS), and the
MVIP clocks are not masked
(register CKW, above), then FBE will go high when a failure is
detected on /FR_COMPn, C2, or /C4. Thus, unmasked, failing non-
MVIP clocks will be flagged in the CLKERR1 and CLKERR2 regis-
ters but will not set the FBE flag in SYSERR.

2.7 The JTAG Test Access Port
2.7.1 Overview of the JTAG Architecture
Tap
A 5-pin test access port, consisting of input pins TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO,
and TRST, provides the standard interface to the test logic. TRST is an
active-low signal that resets the circuit.
TAP Controller
The TAP controller implements the finite state machine which controls the
operation of the test logic as defined by the standard. The TMS input
value sampled on the rising edge of TCK controls the state transitions.
The state diagram underlying the TAP controller is shown below.
Instruction Register (JIR)
A 3-bit scannable JTAG instruction register that communicates data or
commands between the TAP and the T8100 during test or HDS opera-
tions.
Boundary-Scan Register (JBSR)
A 211-bit JTAG boundary-scan register containing one scannable register
cell for every I/O pin and every 3-state enable signal of the device, as
defined by the standard. JBSR can capture from parallel inputs or update
into parallel outputs for every cell in the scan path. JBSR may be config-
ured into three standard modes of operation (EXTEST, INTEST, and
SAMPLE) by scanning the proper instruction code into the instruction reg-
ister (JIR). An in-depth treatment of the boundary-scan register, its physi-
cal structure, and its different cell types is given in Table 51.
Bypass Register (JBPR)
A 1-bit long JTAG bypass register to bypass the boundary-scan path of
nontargeted devices in board environments as defined by the standard.

2.8 Testing and Diagnostics
There are several testing operations available for the
T8100:
s
JTAG
s
Forced output testing
s
Onboard diagnostics
During manufacturing, the T8100 is run through stan-
dard functional and electrical testing.
2.8.1 Testing Operations
JTAG is used primarily to test the array portion of the
T8100. It will not provide coverage for the CAMs, regis-
ter files, SRAMs, or PLLs. In JTAG, the manufacturer
provides a drop-in control block and scan-chain which
ties internal points to registers on the periphery of the
T8100, which are, in turn, tied to the I/O pins. Serial bit
patterns are shifted into the T8100 through the TDI pin,
and the results can be observed at the I/O and at a cor-
responding JTAG serial output, TDO. Since this JTAG
conforms to the JTAG standard, the TDI and TDO can
be linked to the JTAGs of other devices for systemic
testing. The TTS pin must be low for JTAG operations
to work. The TTS pin has an internal pull-down resistor
that defaults the T8100 to JTAG operations.
In forced output testing, the outputs are set to a particu-
lar state to measure their dc parameters. This can also
be used in applications for board-level diagnostics.
Forced output testing is selected by setting the TTS
(test type select) pin high. In this mode, the JTAG clock
pin, TCK, will act as an input pin. All outputs will be
enabled, and each output provides either an inverting
or normal response to the input pin. Adjacent pins
alternate inverting and normal function (i.e., a checker-
board pattern).
2.8.2 Diagnostics
The T8100 has onboard diagnostic modes for testing
the frame groups, SRAMs and CAMs, and some inter-
nal structures. These are intended for testing some of
the T8100 resources while it is in an application envi-
ronment (rather than a manufacturing test environ-
ment).
The diagnostics allow critical internal nodes to be out-
put through the frame groups, or to have the frame
groups operated in special cyclical manner, or to pro-
vide automatic filling of all memories (including CAMs)
with one of four selected patterns. The diagnostics are
activated and selected using three registers: DIAG1
[0x30], DIAG2 [0x31], or DIAG3 [0x32].
DIAG1 is used to select the frame group pins as either
monitors for internal nodes or normal operation (i.e., as
frame groups or programmed outputs). DIAG1 is also
used to control the memory fill diagnostic.
DIAG2 and DIAG3 modify the normal operation of the
frame groups and the main state counter. Normally, the
frame groups begin their cascade sequence when the
state counter (i.e., the frame-synchronized master
counter of the T8100) reaches a value equal to the
frame group's starting address. DIAG2 and DIAG3
allow the state counter to be modified for one of two dif-
ferent tests.

2.8.2 Diagnostics (continued)
The three registers are presented in order below:
The register fields are interpreted as follows:
DFA--Diagnostics, Frame Pin Selects, Group A:
DFn = 00, Normal operation
DFn = 01, State counter bits [10:0] routed to frame
group pins [10:0], pin 11 = L
DFn = 10, Even CAM hit routed to pin 11, pin 10 has
odd CAM hit, pins [9:0] have local data
memory address
DFn = 11, Pin 11 gets CUE error bit, pin 10 gets CUO
error bit, pin 9 gets CUL error bit, pin 8 gets
COE error bit, pins [5:0] get page pointers--
8 MHz read, 8 MHz write, 4 MHz read,
4 MHz write, 2 MHz read, and 2 MHz write
DFB--Diagnostics, Frame Pin Selects, Group B:
DFn = 00, Normal operation
DFn = 01, State counter bits [10:0] routed to frame
group pins [10:0], pin 11 = L
DFn = 10, CAM state register [1:0] indicating four sub-
states, routed to pins [11:10], and local con-
nection memory address routed to pins [9:0]
DFn = 11, Pin 11 gets local CAM hit flag, and pins
[10:0] get CAM state counter
DMF--Diagnostics, Memory, Fill Test Enable:
DMF = 0, Normal operation
DMF = 1, Fill all memories with the pattern selected
by DMP
DMP--Diagnostics, Memory, Fill Test Pattern
Select:
DMP = 00, Checkerboard 0--even locations get 0x55,
odd locations get 0xAA
DMP = 01, Checkerboard 1--even locations get 0xAA,
odd locations get 0x55
DMP = 10, Data locations equal address bits [7:0]
(CAMs are filled with their physical address)
DMP = 11, Data locations equal inverted address bits
[7:0]
DMD--Diagnostics, Memory, Done Indicator:
This is a status bit which indicates that the chosen
memory pattern has been written to all locations. Addi-
tional writes to the memory are disabled and reads are
enabled. This condition remains until the user clears
this bit.
DFC--Diagnostics, Frame Groups Cycle Test
Mode:
DFC = 0, Normal operation
DFC = 1, Cycle test mode enabled; forces the frame
groups to constantly cycle without waiting for
a frame signal to synchronize the start.
DSB--Diagnostics, State Counter, Break Carry
Bits:
DSB = 0, Normal operation
DSB = 1, Breaks the carry bits between the subsec-
tions of the state counter so that the state
counter is operating as three counters run-
ning in parallel. (This can be viewed on the
frame pins using the DFn = 01 selection
described above.) Status counter bits [0:3]
and [4:7] run as modulo-16 counters, and bits
[8:10] run as a modulo-8 counter.
DXF--Diagnostics, External Frame Input:
DXF = 0, Normal operation
DXF = 1, Forces /FR_COMP to act as a direct input
signal for T8100 framing. This effectively
bypasses the internally generated frame sig-
nal. The user is again cautioned since the
external frame can operate asynchronously
to the generated clocks if care is not taken.
DSE--Diagnostics, State Counter, Enable Parallel
Load:
DSE = 0, Normal operation
DSE = 1, Forces the state counter to load the value
held in DSH and DSL and continuously cycle
as a modulo-n counter where the n value is
determined by (DSH and DSL). With the DSE
pin high, the state counter is no longer syn-
chronized to the frame signal.
DSH--Diagnostics, State Counter, High Bits of Par-
allel Load:
DSH = State counter bits [10:8]
DSL--Diagnostics, State Counter, Low Bits of Par-
allel Load:
DSL = State counter bits [7:0]

3.1 Resets
3.1.1 Hardware Reset
A hardware reset utilizes the (active-low) RESET pin.
On activation, it immediately places all outputs into
3-state. Individual output sections must be reenabled
by setting the appropriate bits high in the MCR register.
Internally, the local memory is in an undefined state, all
CAM empty bits are set, all state machines are reset,
and all registers are cleared to zero.
3.1.2 Software Reset
This is accomplished by setting the MSB of the master
control and status register (see Section 2.1.2 Master
Control and Status Register). The local and H-Bus con-
nections are rendered invalid, all registers are cleared
except MCR, CLKERR1, CLKERR2, and SYSERR
(these registers are cleared with separate MCR control
bits); the state machines are also reset. Applying the
value 0xE0 to the MCR is a full software reset. Applying
0x0E enables all pin groups (though individual pins still
require setup). This soft reset is clocked by the crystal
oscillator.
3.1.3 Power-On Reset
No power-on reset is available. It is expected that the
host microprocessor or applications board will provide
an external control to the RESET pin for performing a
hardware reset. The PLLs must not be enabled prior to
establishing a stable supply voltage. There are two
methods to accomplish this:
s
Tie the En1 and En2 pins to the same line that drives
the RESET which forces the PLLs into an off condi-
tion while the T8100 resets asynchronously.
s
Add external capacitors from En1 to ground and from
En2 to ground. (The values of the capacitors should
be 1 F or greater.) The capacitors will form RC cir-
cuits with the En1 and En2 internal pull-ups and will
charge up to enable the PLLs after several millisec-
onds. The RC circuit affects the power-on reset for
the PLLs. The long rise time provides some delay.
3.2 Basic Connections
At a minimum, the T8100 requires power, ground, and
a 16.384 MHz crystal (or 16.384 MHz crystal oscilla-
tor). It is also recommended that the internal PLLs be
treated as other analog circuits are, so the user should
provide the appropriate filtering between the PLL1V
DD
and V
DD
pins (as well as PLL2V
DD
and V
DD
pins). The
RDY pin is operated as an open collector output. It is
actively driven low or into 3-state. The user should
apply a pull-up (e.g., 10 k
) to maintain standard
microprocessor interfacing. It is recommended that the
10 k
be tied to 3.3 V (since the T8100's nominal
V
OH
is 3.3 V), but the resistor may also be tied up
to 5 V without damaging the device. PLL connections
are shown in Figure 15. The H.100/H.110 clock
signals, CT_C8_A, CT_C8_B, /CT_FRAME_A,
/CT_FRAME_B, and CT_NETREF each require an
individual external pull-up of 100 k
to 5 V or 50 k
to
3.3 V.

3.2 Basic Connections

3.2.1 Physical Connections for H.110
Figure 16 shows the T8100 physical connections
required for use in an H.110 environment. There are
electrical differences between H.100 and H.110. For
H.110, external components are required to meet spec-
ifications. Figure 16 shows the T8100 NETREF termi-
nations and the required terminations for CT_C8A,
CT_FRAMEA, CT_C8B, and CT_FRAMEB. Each sig-
nal has a mechanism to short the 33
series resistor
and, in addition, a 10 k
pulldown resistor. The 50 k
internal pull-ups on the CT data bus are used for
H.100. For H.110, the DPUE pin should be tied low,
disabling these internal pull-ups. H.110 requires the CT
data bus to have pull-ups of 18 k
to 0.7 V. The control
leads of the FET switches would typically go to the
microprocessor.
3.2.2 H.100 Data Pin Series Termination
All data bus lines must have a 24
series
resistor, even if only data lines 16--31 are used
at 8.192 Mbits/s.
3.2.3 PC Board Considerations
There are no special requirements for the thermal balls
on the BGA package when designing a printed-circuit
board.

3.3 Using the LAR, AMR, and IDR for Con-
nections
3.3.1 Setting Up Local Connections
Local connections require a physical location in the
local connection memory corresponding to the output
stream and time slot. The location contains a pointer to
a local data memory location which holds the actual
data that has come in or will be sent out. The local
memories are based on 1024 locations, so 10 bits are
required to specify the physical memory location where
a connection is placed or where data is stored. To sim-
plify the programming, the user supplies 11 bits in a
stream and time-slot format, which is converted by the
T8100 to the appropriate physical location. Relative to
describing a connection, a data memory location corre-
sponds with the FROM stream and time slot, and a
connection memory location corresponds with the TO
stream and time slot. To program a connection, the
user loads the data memory location into the connec-
tion memory location, effectively identifying where the
data resides.
The user programs 7 bits of the LAR for the time-slot
value (or 8 bits for pattern mode) and the lowest 4 bits
of the AMR for the stream value; these will then be con-
verted to the physical memory address. The upper bits
of the AMR select which field in the connection mem-
ory is being written into. Since the connection informa-
tion itself is 15 bits, two transfers (i.e., two fields) must
be made to the address in the connection memory.
In each case, the transfer is an indirect write of data to
the indirect data register, the IDR: The first transfer is
the lowest 7 bits (time-slot address) of the desired data
memory location. It is placed in the IDR after the LAR
and AMR have been set up with the appropriate con-
nection address.
Table 52 illustrates the decoding of the time-slot bits
(address value in the table refers to the hex value of the
7 bits comprising time slot).
When programming the registers for fallback, the CKS
and CKW registers should be programmed last.

The second transfer requires that data in the IDR be defined as follows:
After the second transfer is made, the entire 15 bits will be loaded into the connection memory; i.e., the second
transfer triggers the actual memory access. Figure 17 shows how the connections are made from the perspective
of the registers and memory contents.
If the user wishes to set up a pattern mode connection, then the first transfer is a full 8 bits (i.e., the pattern), rather
than the 7-bit time-slot value. This pattern byte will be stored in the lowest 8 bits of the selected connection memory
location. The pattern byte will be sent instead of a byte from local data memory during the output stream and time
slot which corresponds to the connection memory location.

Data buffer selection for setting delay type. (Refer to Appendix B for minimum and constant
delay setting.)
Address
4--0 All 5 bits are used for the stream address of the desired data memory location.
The CAM blocks are 256 locations each and the opera-
tions for the CAM blocks are selected by AMR (see
Section 2.1.3 Address Mode Register and Section
2.3.2 CAM Operation and Commands). Since the block
address is carried in the AMR, this reduces the number
of bits which are necessary to establish a connection.
Eleven (11) address bits, i.e., bits for stream and time-
slot identification, the 8-bit tag (pointer to the H-Bus
data memory), and 3 control bits all need to be written
into the selected CAM block for setting up a connec-
tion. (The empty bit is a status bit that is changed inter-
nally as a result of operations on the CAM.) Three
transfers, indirect writes through the IDR, are required
to set up a connection in the CAM, though the method
of transfer is different than with the local memory. Since
a specific physical address is not always necessary, the
CAM will automatically fill the first available slot. Thus,
the LAR is not required for setting up the connection.
(See the notes below.) The first transfer after program-
ming the AMR requires that the 7 bits which identify the
time-slot number (refer to Section 2.3.5 H-Bus Rate
Selection and Connection Address Format for the
proper format) be loaded into the IDR. The second
transfer uses a similar field description for the IDR as
presented for local connections (Section 3.3.1 Setting
Up Local Connections above). The address field con-
tains the stream number (5 bits), and the control field
contains only three control bits.
The third (and final) transfer for CAM connection setup
is the transfer of the 8-bit tag field. The tag is loaded
into the IDR. The connection for the CAM is actually set
up, i.e., the memory access takes place, using a fourth
write. It is an indirect write to the AMR (again through
the IDR) which corresponds with the specific command
and blocks the user requests. All CAM commands
require that the IDR be loaded with the same command
value as the AMR rather than a don't care or dummy
value.
Notes: If an address is to be matched, such as the
break connection command, then only the first
two transfers are required. The tag is unneces-
sary for identifying a connection.
The LAR is only used to read or query a spe-
cific location (i.e., 0--255) in a particular CAM
block. Refer to Section 2.1.3 Address Mode
Register and Section 2.3.2 CAM Operation
and Commands for details on these com-
mands.
For the CAMs, pattern mode is a 1/2 connection. Only
the intended output to the H-Bus (or to the local pins)
needs to be specified. The setup is the same as
described above, three transfers to the holding regis-
ters followed by the make connection command to the
appropriate CAM block. When the address is matched,
the tag value (from the pipeline SRAM) will be sent as
output to the bus.
Figure 18 illustrates how a CAM connection is made
from the perspective of registers and the memory loca-
tions. Note that each half of the connection, that is the
FROM and the TO, requires a separate setup, though
each half will point to the same location in the H-Bus
data memory.
Following Figure 18, some simple programming exam-
ples are shown using pseudoassembler code. The
local-to-local and H-Bus-to-local switching examples
from Figure 17 and Figure 18 are reused in code exam-
ples #2 and #3. The connections are referred to in
stream, time-slot format.

4 Electrical Characteristics
4.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are abso-
lute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess
of those given in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended
periods can adversely affect device reliability.
4.2 Handling Precautions
Although protection circuitry has been designed into this device, proper precautions should be taken to avoid expo-
sure to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during handling and mounting. Lucent employs a human-body model (HBM)
and a charged-device model (CDM) for ESD-susceptibility testing and protection design evaluation. ESD voltage
thresholds are dependent on the circuit parameters used to define the model. No industry-wide standard has been
adopted for CDM. However, a standard HBM (resistance = 1500
, capacitance = 100 pF) is widely used and
therefore can be used for comparison purposes. The HBM ESD threshold presented here was obtained by using
these circuit parameters:

4.3 Crystal Oscillator
Table 55. Crystal Oscillator
The T8100 requires a 16.384 MHz clock source. To supply this, a 16.384 MHz crystal can be connected between
the RCLK and XTALOUT pins. External 18 pF, 5% capacitors must be connected from XTALIN and XTALOUT to
V
SS
. Crystal specifications are shown below. The
32 ppm tolerance is the suggested value if either the DPLL is
used or fallback to the oscillator is enabled while mastering the bus. Otherwise, a crystal with a lesser tolerance
can be used.

When XTALIN is driven by a CMOS signal instead of an oscillator, it must meet the requirements shown below:

When static skew is 10 ns and, in the same clock cycle, each clock performs a 10 ns phase correction in opposite directions, a maximum
skew of 30 ns will occur during that clock cycle.

Meeting the skew requirements in Table 10 and the requirements of Section 2.3 H-Bus Section could require the PLLs generating CT_C8
to have different time constants when acting as primary and secondary clock masters.

Appendix A. Application of Clock
Modes
In the diagrams that follow, four clock modes are illus-
trated using Figure 12, the T8100 clocking diagram, as
the basis of each illustration. The key signal paths are
shown in solid lines, and unused paths with narrow
dashes. Two examples also indicate fallback paths. A
register profile (programming values) for all four exam-
ples is on the last page of the appendix.
In Figure 30, the T8100 is operating as a bus master,
so it must link to either an 8 kHz recovered frame refer-
ence or 2.048 MHz recovered bit clock reference from
the E1 framers. In addition, the T8100 can provide one
of the basic resource clocks to run the framers. In
this case, the TCLK is selecting the T8100's
16.384 MHz oscillator. The framers are returning a
2.048 MHz bit clock which is selected through the clock
selector. It is not divided, so the main divider is
bypassed (divide-by-1), the clock is smoothed
through an external DJAT, and the smooth 2.048 MHz
signal is routed to PLL #1 through the clock resource
selector. PLL #1 multiplies the 2.048 MHz input up to
65.536 MHz which, in turn, runs the rest of the T8100,
all bus clocks, and the local clocks (if desired). If the
T8100 is not providing NETREF generation, then the
NETREF from the bus is routed to the local clocks via
the NETREF internal/external selector. Since the
NETREF generation resources are not needed here,
the TODJAT and FROMDJAT pins are free for use with
the general-purpose register as bits GP6 and GP7,
respectively.
Figure 31 shows the T1 version of a bus master. In this
scenario, a 1.544 MHz recovered bit clock from the
framers is routed to a multiclock adapter (with built-in
jitter attenuation) which produces smooth 4.096 MHz
and 3.088 MHz outputs. The 4.096 MHz is routed
up to PLL #1 for a times-16 rate multiplication to
65.536 MHz. This drives the bus clocks and the local
clocks. The smooth 3.088 MHz is also rate multiplied
times 8. This produces a 24.704 MHz clock. This is
divided back down to produce a smooth 12.352 MHz
which is fed back to the framers. (PLL outputs produce
one tightly bound edge and one with significant phase
jitter. Dividing a higher-frequency signal based on its
clean edge produces a lower frequency with two clean
edges.)
Figure 32 shows an H-
MVIP slave arrangement for E1.
In this example, the C16 differential clocks provide the
main source for PLL #1. The 16.384 MHz signal is
divided down to 4.096 MHz and then rate multiplied up
to 65.536 MHz for driving the rest of the T8100. The
frame sync for the state machines is derived from the
/FRAME and C16 inputs as well as the state informa-
tion provided by C2 and /C4.
Note: The bit slider is enabled for a smooth phase
alignment between the internal frame and the
frame sync.
The bus clocks are not driven, but the local clocks are
available. A path for NETREF is shown as well, also
based on a 2.048 MHz input. The signal is smoothed
and then divided down to an 8 kHz signal via the
NETREF divider. The internal oscillator is again chosen
for routing to the framers via TCLK.
Figure 33 shows an H-
MVIP slave for T1. This is identi-
cal to the E1 case with regard to slaving, and a
NETREF path is illustrated in this example, too. The
NETREF divider has been changed to accommodate
the 1.544 MHz bit clock rate. The primary difference is
the use of the C16 clock through the main divider to
generate a 2.048 MHz signal which can be routed off-
chip and adapted to a 1.544 MHz signal using an exter-
nal device. The 1.544 MHz signal is returned to the
T8100 via the 3MHzIN for rate multiplication up to
24.704 MHz and then division to a clean 12.352 MHz
signal which is routed to the framers via TCLK.

Table 64. Clock Register Programming Profile for the Four Previous Examples
The programming displays how similar the four basic modes of operation are. Local outputs (CK32 and CK10) are
obviously not constrained by the mode of operation. The primary difference between E1 and T1 is in the use of the
PLL #2 (which is optional). The primary difference between master and slave is in the clock path to PLL #1, which
is covered by registers CKM, CKR, CKMD, and CKRD.
Note:
CKR does include an example of running PLL #1 at X32 for E1 master and X16 for all other cases.
The watchdogs have been set up to monitor all CT Bus signals, though fallback (to the oscillator) is shown as
enabled in all examples. It is recommended that the default condition, CKS = 0x00, be used for systems which do
not have specific fallback clocking schemes. Also, while programming the T8100 on powerup, it is recommended
that the watchdogs are disabled (CKW = 0x00) until the device is fully programmed to prevent false error conditions
(uninitialized clocks, for example) from changing the operating mode.

Appendix B. Minimum Delay and Con-
stant Delay Connections
B.1 Connection Definitions
Forward
A forward connection is defined as one
Connection
in which the output (to) time slot has a
greater value than the input (from) time
slot, or put another way, the delta
between them is positive.
Reverse
A reverse connection is defined as one
Connection
in which the input (from) time slot has
a lesser value than the output (to) time
slot, and the delta between them is
negative.
So, for example, going from TS(1) to TS(38) is a for-
ward connection, and the TS
is +37, but going from
TS(38) to TS(1) is a reverse connection, with a TS
of
37:
where TS
= TS(to) TS(from).
Similarly, a delta can be introduced for streams which
will have a bearing in certain exceptions (discussed
later):
STR
= STR(to) STR(from)
There is only one combination which forms a TS
of
+127 or 127:
TS
= TS(127) TS(0) = +127, and
TS
= TS(0) TS(127) = 127,
but there are two combinations which form TS
s of
+126 or 126:
TS
= TS(127) TS(1) = TS(126) TS(0) = +126, and
TS
= TS(1) TS(127) = TS(0) TS(126) = 126,
there are three combinations which yield +125 or 125,
and so on.
The user can utilize the TS
to control the latency of
the resulting connection. In some cases, the latency
must be minimized. In other cases, such as a block of
connections which must maintain some relative integ-
rity while crossing a frame boundary, the required
latency of some of the connections may exceed one
frame (>128 time slots) to maintain the integrity of this
virtual frame.
The T8100 contains several bits for controlling latency.
Each connection has a bit which is used for selecting
one of two alternating data buffers. These bits are set
in the local connection memory for local switching or in
the tag register files of the CAM section for H-Bus
switching. There are also 2 bits in the CON register,
address 0x0E, which can control the buffer selection on
a chip-wide basis. Bit 1 of the register overrides the
individual FME bits. Bit 0 becomes the global, chip-
wide, FME setting.

Appendix B. Minimum Delay and Con-
stant Delay Connections
(continued)
B.2 Delay Type Definitions
Constant Delay In the T8100, this is a well-defined,
predictable, and linear region of
latency in which the to time slot is at
least 128 time slots after the from time
slot, but no more than 256 time slots
after the from time slot.
Mathematically, constant delay latency is described as
follows*, with L denoting latency, and FME set to the
value indicated:
Forward Connections, FME = 1: L = 128 + TS
(0
TS
127)
Reverse Connections, FME = 0: L = 256 + TS
(127
TS
0)
* Since TS
= TS(to) TS(from), the user can modify the equations
to solve for either TS(to) or TS(from).
Example:
Switching from TS(37) to TS(1) as a con-
stant delay, the delta is 36, so FME is
set to 0 and the resulting latency is 256
36 = 220 time slots. Thus, the connec-
tion will be made from TS(37) of
Frame(n) to TS(1) of Frame(n + 2).
Simple
Summary:
Use constant delay for latencies of 128
to 256 time slots, set FME = 1 for forward
connections, set FME = 0 for reverse
connections.
Minimum Delay This is the most common type of
switching, but has a shorter range
than constant delay, and the user must
be aware of exceptions caused by
interactions between the T8100's
internal pipeline and the dual buffer-
ing. The to time slot is at least three
time slots after the from time slot, but
no more than 128 time slots after the
from time slot. Exceptions exist at
TS
s of +1, +2, 126, and 127.
Forward Connections, FME = 0: L = TS
(3
TS
127)
Reverse Connections, FME = 1: L = 128 + TS
(125
TS
0)
Example:
Using the same switching from the
example above, TS(37) to TS(1), the
delta is 36, so FME is set to 1 to effect
the minimum delay (setting to 0 effects
constant delay), and the resulting
latency is 128 36 = 92 time slots. The
relative positions of the end time slots
are the same in both minimum and con-
stant delay (i.e., they both switch to
TS[1]), but the actual data is delayed by
an additional frame in the constant delay
case.
Simple
Summary:
Use minimum delay for latencies of 3 to
128 time slots, set FME = 0 for forward
connections, set FME = 1 for reverse
connections.

B.2.1 Exceptions to Minimum Delay
Up until this point in the discussion, the STRDs have
not been discussed because the to and from streams
have been irrelevant in the switching process*. Rather
than try to list the exceptions mathematically, a table is
provided. The latencies in these cases may exceed two
frames due to the interaction of the intrinsic pipeline
delays with the double buffering.
Table 65. Table of Special Cases (Exceptions)
Graphically, the minimum delay latency equations are
illustrated below. The exceptions to the minimum delay
have been included in the diagram, connected to the
main function by dashed lines.
B.2.2 Lower Stream Rates
The discussion has centered on 128 time-slot frames
which correspond to 8.192 Mbits/s data rates. How
does one make similar predictions for lower stream
rates?
For 4.096 Mbits/s, multiply the to and from time-slot
values by two, i.e., time slot 0 at 4.096 Mbits/s corre-
sponds to time slot 0 at 8.192 Mbits/s, and time slot 63
at 4.096 Mbits/s corresponds to time slot 126 at 8.192
Mbits/s. Similarly, multiply values by four to convert
2.048 Mbits/s values. The latency equations can then
be applied directly.
* The one universally disallowed connection on the T8100 is a TS
of
0 and a STR
of 0. This is a stream and time-slot switching to itself.
Loopback on the local bus, e.g., LDO_0 to LDI_0 is permissible.

B.2.3 Mixed Minimum/Constant Delay
An interesting mix of delays occurs when the individual
FME bits are overridden and a chip-wide selection for
FME is used. In short, when the T8100 is placed in this
mode, and when register bits CON[1:0] = 10, forward
connections provide minimum delay, reverse connec-
tions provide constant delay. When CON[1:0] = 11,
reverse connections provide minimum delay, forward
connections provide constant delay. The latter is inter-
esting because, graphically, the TS
to latency map-
ping appears as a linear monotonic function covering
255 time slots. (Graphs are in the section which fol-
lows.) The latency equations follow:
CON[1:0] = 10:
Forward Connections: L = TS
(3
TS
127).
Reverse Connections: L = 256 + TS
(127
TS
0).
CON[1:0] = 11:
Forward and Reverse: L = 128 + TS
(125
TS
127).
Table 65, Table of Special Cases (Exceptions), applies
to the mixed delays in a similar manner. Simply use bit
0 of CON for the FME value in Table 65.
