30.12.2 UTOPIA Interface Slave Mode

In UTOPIA slave mode (single or multiple PHY), cells are transferred using cell-leve l and octet-leve l

handshakes as defined by the UTOPIA level-2 standard. The FCC allows cell transfer to be halted or

paused. If the master negates TXENB, the cell that the FCC is transmitting is halted. If the master negates

RXENB, the cell that the FCC is receiving is paused. Note the following restriction on halting a cell

transfer: there cannot be a halt immediately before the transfer of the last data word. There is no restriction

on pausing a cell transfer.

UTOPIA slave signals are shown in Figure30-58.

Signal Description
TxDATA[15–0]/[7–0] Transmit data bus. Carries transmit data from the ATM controller to the master device.
TxDATA[15]/[7] is the msb, TxDATA[0] is the lsb.
TxSOC Transmit start of cell. Asserted by an ATM controller as the first byte of a cell is sent on the
TxDATA lines.
TxENB Transmit enable. An input to the ATM controller. It is asserted by the UTOPIA master to signal
the slave to send data in the next TxCLK cycle.
TxCLAV Transmit cell available. Asserted by th e ATM controller to indicate it has a complete c ell to
transmit.
TxPRTY Transmit parity. Asserted by the ATM controller. It is an odd parity bit over the TxDATA.
TxCLK Transmit clock. Provides the synchronization reference for the TxDATA, TxSOC, TxENB,
TxCLAV, and TxPRTY signals. All of the above signals are sampled at low-to-high transitions of
TxCLK.
TxADD[4–0] Transmit address. Address bus from the master to the ATM controller used to select the
appropriate M-PHY device.
RxDATA[15–0]/[7–0] Receive data bus. Carries receive data from the master to the ATM controller. RxDATA[15]/[7]
is the msb, RxDATA[0] is the lsb.
RxSOC Receive start of cell. Asserted by the master device whenever the first byte of a cell is being
received on the RxDATA lines.
