Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Controller

ATM Controller Architecture
The ATM interface manages ATM network operations at three levels:
UCC5 provides the FIFOs for internal data storage and flow
RISC operations manipulate data as required by the supported protocol
The UPC maintains traffic flow on the ATM network (UTOPIA or POS)
Figure 18-16 shows the basic architecture of the ATM controller.
See the QUICC Engine™ Block Reference Manual with Protocol Interworking (QEIWRM) for
details on configuring and programming ATM operations.
18.8.3
UTOPIA Physical Interfaces
The UPC external signal descriptions are divided into UTOPIA mode and POS mode signal
groups. There are several bus configurations, depending on the implemented protocol
(UTOPIA/POS), the polling method, number of devices in the UTOPIA/POS configuration, and
the data bus width. For example, one UTOPIA device configuration requires a total of 36 I/O
ports for 8-bit mode and 52 bits in 16-bit mode. Table 18-13 summarizes all possible I/O pins
assignments combinations.
