TQUAD/EQUAD REFERENCE DESIGN

OVERVIEW The TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design demonstrates PMC-Sierra's TQUAD and EQUAD chipsets. This reference design embodies PMC-Sierra's guidelines and suggestions for designing a four port DSX-1/E1 interface card. This design shows the simplicity of combining the TQUAD and EQUAD into one design, capable of interfacing to T1 or E1 signals. The TQUAD and EQUAD are pin-to-pin compatible, allowing both to be designed into the same footprint. By simply interchanging the TQUAD and EQUAD, and changing some resistors, the board can be converted between T1 and E1 mode. The TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design has both line and system side loopback capabilities. This permits the user to evaluate the performance of PMC-Sierra's TQUAD, EQUAD, and QDSX chipsets in an applications environment. An FPGA provides access to various timing options available within the TQUAD/EQUAD. These timing options allow the backplane to be timed to a number of different sources. The timing may be sourced from on-board oscillators or from clocks recovered within the TQUAD/EQUAD. The following figure gives an overview of the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design.

necessary to interface the QDSX device to cables carrying G.703-compliant signals. The PM4314 QDSX is a quad line interface unit with integrated DSX-1 and CEPT E1 interfaces. In this reference design, PMC Sierra's QDSX is being used to provide a T1/E1 interface for the four duplex serial data streams. The TQUAD/EQUAD is a quadruple T1/E1 framer. Each individual receiver performs clock recovery (optional), performs jitter attenuation (optional), finds frame alignment, monitors performance, extracts facility datalink and signaling bits, and retimes the signal to a backplane clock via the elastic store. Each individual transmitter receives the signal to be transmitted from the backplane, inserts framing, facility datalink, signaling, and other overhead bits, performs jitter attenuation, and transmits the digital signal to the line side. An on-board LED display indicates alarm conditions detected by the TQUAD/EQUAD. This LED Display is controlled by the microprocessor. The ACTEL A1460A FPGA provides a PRBS data generator, loopback schemes, timing options and extra logic required by the LED display. All necessary signals needed for microprocessor access to the FPGA have been provided. The microprocessor interface carries all the signals required to connect the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design to a host 8-bit multiplexed microprocessor bus. This connector provides access to the full set of registers in the TQUAD/EQUAD and QDSX.

3.2.1 PM4344 TQUAD The TQUAD is a quadruple T1 framer. Each individual receiver performs clock recovery (optional), performs jitter attenuation (optional), finds frame alignment, monitors performance, extracts facility datalink and signaling bits, and retimes the signal to a backplane clock via the elastic store. Each individual transmitter receives the signal to be transmitted from the backplane, inserts framing, facility datalink, signaling, and other overhead bits, performs jitter attenuation, and transmits the digital signal to the line side. Multiplexing and demultiplexing of the backplane data and signaling bits from the transmit and receive sides of the four T1 framers is supported but not available in this reference design. The full register set of the TQUAD, including Test Mode registers, are accessible to the host microprocessor. For a full description of the TQUAD, refer to the TQUAD Data book. 3.2.1.1 Configuring the TQUAD from Reset The microprocessor must first determine whether the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference board contains the TQUAD or the EQUAD. As the ID register is the same on both the TQUAD and the EQUAD, Register 006H must be used instead. The bit to check is shown in the following table. Table 1 Bit 4 TQUAD Register - Address: 006H Bit Value 0
After TQUAD power up, a software reset should be performed on the TQUAD to put it in a default state. A software reset is performed by setting the RESET bit (register 0DH) and then clearing it.

FPGA The ACTEL A1460A FPGA provides a PRBS generator, loopback capabilities, logic for alarm LEDs, and several timing options. The code for the FPGA is provided in Appendix D.
3.9.1 Minimum Requirements The system loopback functions, provided by the FPGA, must be programmed to use the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design. The backplane signals that must be looped back are described in the following paragraphs. BRPCM[4:1] are the backplane receive PCM serial data streams. These signals must be looped back to BTPCM[4:1]. BRSIG[4:1] are the backplane receive Signaling serial data streams which indicate the extracted robbed-bit signaling information of each PCM timeslot on BRPCM[4:1]. These signals must be looped back to BTSIG[4:1]. The FPGA must select a 1.544 MHz/2.048 MHz clock source for BRCLK to time the receive section. BRCLK is common to all four framers. The TQUAD/EQUAD may be configured to ignore the BRCLK and use the RCLKO[4:1] signal in its place when the Elastic Store is bypassed. A suitable framing pulse must be generated by the FPGA to frame align the received data to the system backplane. A pulse at least 1 BRCLK cycle wide must be provided on BRFPI every 256 bit periods. BRFPI is common to all four framers. BRFPO[4:1] must be looped back to the BTFP[4:1]. BRFPO[4:1] indicates the frame alignment of the BRPCM[4:1] data A 1.544 MHz/2.048 MHz clock must be provided to the BTCLK[4:1] to provide timing to the transmit section of the TQUAD/EQUAD. Other timing options may be selected in the FPGA but are not required for the operation of the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design. Additional timing options are described in the Timing Options section. 3.9.2 Additional Features A PRBS data generator has been provided to facilitate line side loopbacks. The PRBS pattern generated is 223-1.

The FPGA provides timing options such as Flow Through Timing, Common Backplane Timing, and External Timing. 3.9.3 Timing Options The FPGA provides timing options such as Flow Through Timing, Common Backplane Timing, and External Timing. Flow Through Timing uses the 1.544/2.048 MHz clock to source timing for the BTCLK[4..1]. The data streams are stored in the FIFO timed to the BTCLK[4..1]. The BTCLK[4..1] is received by the Jitter Attenuator, where the BTCLK[4..1] is smoothed out, and transmitted as TCLKO[4..1]. Flow Through Timing is shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5
Flow Through Timing
Common Backplane Timing is similar to Flow Through Timing except it uses the same clock to time BTCLK and BRCLK. It allows for use of the 2.048MHz oscillator for timing the backplane (T1 mode only). Common Backplane Timing is shown in Figure 6.

External Timing facilitates the use of any N*8 kHz external clock, where N is an integer, to generate the TCLKO[4..1] clock signal. Provided TCLKI[4..1] is jitter free when divided down to 8 kHz, then it is possible to derive TCLKO[4..1] from TCLKI[4..1] when TCLKI[4..1] is a multiple of 8 kHz. The specified maximum frequency for TCLKI[4..1] is 3.096 MHz. External Timing is shown in Figure 7.

The divided clock is also required to generate a framing pulse used in the receive section for frame alignment. The frame pulse is output once every 256 clock cycles for the EQUAD, or once every 193 clock cycles for the TQUAD (thus always producing an 8kHz pulse). DIP Switch 0 is used to select between timing options. A `0' selects Flow Through Timing and a `1' selects Common Backplane Timing. A 223-1 PRBS generator allows the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design to loopback the line side T1/E1 signals. The PRBS generator is selected by DIP Switch 1. A `0' selects the receive data, from BRPCM, to be sent to the transmit section, whereas a `1' selects the PRBS data to be sent to the transmit section. DIP Switch 2 is used when the auxiliary oscillator is installed on the board (2.048MHz), in order to time the backplane to it. This feature is only available when using Common Backplane Timing (DIP Switch 0 set to `1'). DIP Switch 3 is used to set TCLKI to either an external oscillator or to hold it low. DIP Switches 4 through 7 are the signaling bits of the backplane. They are converted to serial form within the FPGA and put out on the backplane. Some extra logic is provided to enable microprocessor control of an on board LED display. When chip select 2 and write data byte signals are low and make the transition to high, the data on the multiplexed address-data bus is clocked into flip flops. When a `0' value is clocked into the flip flop, the LED in question turns on. A `1' must be clocked to turn the LED off. The code for the FPGA is provided in Appendix D: VHDL Code. 3.10 Alarms An on-board LED display is available to indicate the status of four alarm conditions: RED Alarm, Alarm Indication Signal (AIS), Out Of Frame (OOF), and Remote Alarm Indication (RAI). The LED display is intended to be controlled by the microprocessor via communication with the FPGA, however the code for this has not been developed at this time. Table 15 shows the intended LEDs and their corresponding alarms.

The EQUAD detects and indicates the presence of remote alarm and AIS patterns, and also integrates Red and AIS alarms as per industry specifications. 3.10.2 TQUAD Alarms The TQUAD supports the detection of various alarm conditions such as Loss of Signal, Pulse Density Violation, Red Alarm, Yellow Alarm, and AIS alarm. The TQUAD detects the presence of Yellow and AIS patterns and integrates Yellow, Red and AIS alarms as per industry specifications. 3.10.3 Interrupts The only efficient way of processing events that may have a low frequency of occurrence is to use interrupt driven routines (instead of polling). The events (alarm conditions, timers, datalink servicing) on the TQUAD/EQUAD with QDSX reference design will, on average, be low frequency. When the host microprocessor detects an interrupt indication on its external interrupt input pin, it must determine the source of the interrupt. The microprocessor polls the TQUAD/EQUAD and the QDSX to determine the source of the interrupt. Then the appropriate device's registers must be polled to determine the event that caused the interrupt.

There are only a few high speed lines on the board that require controlled impedance traces and terminations. All pull down resistors are placed near the output pins.

To reduce signal degradation due to reflection and radiation, the traces that carry high speed signals should be treated as micro strip transmission lines with controlled impedance and matched resistive termination. The trace impedance is calculated using the formula: 87 ae 5.98 x h o x ln e Zo = r + 1.41 0.8 x w + t o

Given a characteristic impedance Zo, the dielectric thickness h1 is proportional to the trace width. A small h1 will result in the traces being too thin to be accurately fabricated. Wider traces can be more precisely manufactured, but they take up too much board space. Therefore, the thickness of the board for a given trace impedance and adequate trace width should be chosen so that the traces take up as little board space as possible yet still leaving enough margin to allow accurate fabrication. For example, using the same dielectric thickness, copper trace thickness, and dielectric constant, a 16 mil trace has a characteristic impedance of approximately 50 Ohms while a 6 mil trace has a characteristic impedance of 75 Ohms. 4.3 Power and Ground A ground plane and power plane cover the entire board, except for the line interface area.

avoided as they will increase trace inductance and increase crosstalk. These slots can be accidentally created by making clear-out holes too large. The line interface area that connects the bantam connectors to the transformers has its own separate chassis ground plane. This chassis ground plane is formed on the same layer of the board as the main ground and power plane, except is separated from these planes in an entire section of the board, underneath the transformers. Signals will not cross from one ground plane to another, except across the transformers. This setup isolates the T1/E1 lines from the rest of the board. The placement of the digital ground and power planes, as well as the chassis ground plane, can be seen in Figure 12. 4.4 Routing * * * * All power and ground traces are as wide and short as possible to minimize trace inductance. All high speed traces are routed over continuous image planes (power or ground planes). All traces carrying transmit and receive line rate data should be routed on the same side and kept as short as possible. Both signals of a differential pair are of equal length and routed close to each other.
