Notes:

 

 

 

 

 

1.

Features disabled/enabled by Soft Fuse must be done during the boot-up sequence. A feature cannot be enabled after

 

being disabled without asserting a system reset.

2.

Features disabled by a specific part number, do not require pull-ups or pull-downs. Therefore, all pins can be left

 

unconnected.

 

 

 

3.

Features enabled by a specific part number — and required to be Soft Fuse-disabled, as stated in Note 1 — only require

 

pull-ups or pull-downs in the clock-input signals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.9.2Device Connection

The following example shown in Figure 13 shows a typical interface to an ADSL Framer via the UTOPIA bus. Notice that depending on the framer used some control signals might be required which can be derived from the Expansion bus or the GPIO signals.
