Figure 34-1. MLB Device Top-Level Block Diagram
The MLB implements the 3-pin MediaLB mode and can run at speeds up to 1024Fs. It
does not implement MediaLB controller functionality. All MediaLB devices support a set
of physical channels for sending data over the MediaLB. Each physical channel is 4 bytes
in length (quadlet) and grouped into logical channels with one or more physical channels
allocated to each logical channel. These logical channels can be any combination of
channel type (synchronous, asynchronous, control, or isochronous) and direction
(transmit or receive).
The MLB provides support for up to 16 logical channels and up to 31 physical channels
with a maximum of 124 bytes of data per frame. Each logical channel is referenced using
an unique channel address and represents a unidirectional data path between a MediaLB
device transmitting the data and the MediaLB device(s) receiving the data.
34.1.2 Supported Feature
• Synchronous, asynchronous, control and isochronous channel.
• Up to 16 logical channels and 31 physical channels running at a maximum speed of
1024Fs
• Transmission of commands and data and reception of receive status when
functioning as the transmitting device associated with a logical channel address
