ISDN and 16-bit Audio
8-3
DBRI Overview
8.2.1
TE and NT Ports
The TE port provides the basic network connection to the ISDN. The NT
port is not used in SPARCbook 3.
An internal FIFO buffer is used as a pipe to hold data transfering between
interfaces. Data is moved between the various ports by assigning pipes and
time slots to connect them. The D channel input and output streams use the
High Data Level Link Control (HDLC) protocol, as required by ISDN.
Once a connection is made through a pipe, little or no service is required to
maintain it other than to manage buffer pools of data received and for
transmission.
8.2.2
CHI Port
The CHI port is used to connect the audio CODEC. It provides a
synchronous serial link which is used to transfer frames of audio data
between the DBRI and audio CODEC. The CHI uses four wires to
communicate: the data transport clock (CHIK); a frame synchronization
pulse (CHIFS); a data transmit data wire; and a receive data wire. Data
frames exchanged between the two devices contain digital audio or control
information. Specific time slots within each frame are assigned to carry
particular types of data.
8.2.3
SBus Interface
The 32-bit bus port is a fully compliant SBus DMA master that supports up
to 64-byte DMA bursts. Up to sixteen pipes, each 80 bytes long, can be used
to support DMA operations.
