29.5.2

Superchannels and Receiving

The restrictions stated in Section 29.5 regarding using back-to-back timeslots with the same channel do

not apply to the receive side of the MCC. A user does not have to mark receive timeslots as

superchannelled in SIRAM programming unless transparent slot synchronization is being used (see

Section 29.5.3, “Transparent Slot Synchronization”). Note that no SCT is used for the receive side and the

channel numbers used when programming receive SIRAM timeslots should always be that of the actual

intended MCC receive channel FIFO.

A normal MCC receive FIFO is 2 bytes and a superchannelled MCC receive FIFO is 1 byte.

29.5.3

Transparent Slot Synchronization

Transparent slot synchronization (TSS) is used to ensure that data transmission and reception for a

transparent superchannel begins on the intended timeslot of that superchannel. It is not required that the

first timeslot that appears in the SIRAM programming for a transparent superchannel be the first to send

or receive when the superchannel first starts. The user indicates which timeslot in a superchannel should

be the first to send or receive by programming the CNT and BYT fields of the superchannelled timeslots

as described in Section 15.4.3, “Programming SIx RAM Entries.”

29.5.4

Superchannelling Programming Examples

The example in Figure 29-14 shows the SI RAM programming and the super-channel table for two

different transmitter superchannels running on the same TDM interface. One superchannel includes TDM

timeslots 1, 6, and 7, which also happen to be programmed to use MCC FIFO numbers 1, 6, and 7. The

second superchannel in this example is comprised of timeslots 2, 3, and 4 using MCC FIFOs 2, 3, and 4.

This approach of using a FIFO number which is the same as the timeslot number is arbitrary and no a

requirement.

Note that entries in the superchannel table for MCC FIFOs 1, 6 and 7 all are programmed to point to the

channel-specific and channel-extra parameters for channel 1. Superchannel table entries for MCC FIFOs

2, 3 and 4 are programmed such that these FIFOs are managed by the parameters of channel 2.
