streams, and trigger the PPCE interrupt bit. PPCE will be triggered by PPFRi moving from the expected time, but PPCE will not be triggered by a missing PPFRi. If the PPFRi input is held asserted, the parallel I/O will “lock up” and operation will be disrupted (including CPU access to the TPCM).

The PPFTi framing in TM1 with PFDI=1 operates similarly, using PCKT, but the PPCE interrupt does not monitor PPFTi. Instead, the TXPAA bit indicates that the PPFTi input is out of phase with F0i.

Output Driver Enable Control Capability

The MT90840 provides a bit (ODE) in the IMS Register that places all data outputs of the device (parallel and serial) in a high impedance state. The ODE bit (Output Drive Enable) is automatically set low by the reset input pulse applied to the device during system power up. When low, the ODE bit disables all TDM outputs of the MT90840 while Connection Memory initialization is performed by the CPU. This function is useful to avoid data collision when the MT90840 is sharing a transmit parallel bus with other devices. When ODE is set high, individual parallel and serial port time slots are controlled by the OE bits in TPCM High and RPCM High.

Timing and Switching Control

The MT90840 supports four major timing/switching modes:

•TM1/Ring Master: PDo timing slaved to STi/o timing, Receive Path has elastic buffer enabled;

•TM2/Ring Slave: STi/o timing slaved to PDi timing, fixed delay in Receive Path;

•TM3/Bus Slave: PDo and PDi tied together, STi/o timing slaved to parallel bus timing;

•TM4/Parallel Switching: 2430 (or 2048) channel switching from PDi to PDo.

The TM1-0 bits in the TIM Register are used to select the timing modes. The PFDI and SFDI bits in the same register can be used to enable parallel-device sub-modes of TM1 and TM2 respectively. In all MT90840 timing modes, the throughput delay when performing time interchange functions of grouped channel data is constant, maintaining the frame integrity of the input and output data.

Timing Mode 1 (TM1) - Ring Master

Asynchronous Parallel Port With ST-BUS Clock Master

Timing Mode 1 is used where the main TDM clock reference resides on the serial port side of the system. (An example is a node which is the clock master on a ring network.) Timing on the transmit parallel port is tightly tied to the serial port. The receive parallel port timing is elastic; there is an elastic buffer in the Receive Path and the Bypass Path. See Figure 5a for a connection example.

In TM1, the MT90840 receives the serial port frame pulse (F0i) and serial clock (C4/8R1 or C4/8R2). The MT90840 then generates the parallel port output frame pulse (PPFTo) synchronized to F0i. The transmit parallel port is fixed in phase relative to the serial port. (A fixed offset of 3.8 μsec exists between F0i and PPFTo due to serial-to-parallel conversion.) The transmit path does not provide an elastic buffer, and therefore the parallel port TX clock (PCKT) must be tightly locked (in frequency) to the serial port C4/8 and F0i clocks. (Jitter less than +/- 100nsec.)
