Abstract :
An NNI/UNI (node network interface/user network interface) ATM framer ASIC which implements the SDH/SONET based transmission convergence (TC) sublayer of the B-ISDN reference model has been fabricated. The framer chip is suitable for 622.08 or 155.52 Mbit/s line rates. It incorporates 491 K transistors, consumes 2 W of power and has been implemented in 0.6 μm CMOS technology
