OVERALL DESCRIPTION

■
■
■
The ST20190 is a new generation ADSL chipset
from STMicroelectronics. It is highly integrated
and has the flexibility to offer all standards, all an-
nexes while being fully optimised for CPE applica-
tions. It provides all the required functions to
implement a complete Utopia rate adaptive DMT
ADSL modem. It consists of the optimised ADSL
Analogue Front-End chip ST20184 and the digital
chip ST20196 which includes a DMT/ATM mo-
dem, and a dedicated ADSL Transceiver Control-
ler with associated Firmware.
As shown in Fig.2, the chipset interfaces have
been defined to allow direct integration into sys-
tems design, reducing both time-to-market and im-

plementation risks. The data interface is implemented as an ATM Utopia interface. A HW/FW command
and control interface (CtrlE) to communicate with external management entities, is directly provided, with-
out need for glue logic.
The chipset employs Discrete Multi-Tone modulation as specified in ANSI T1.413. It also supports ETSI
TS 101 388 and ITU standards G.992.1 (G.dmt) including Annex A, B and C; G.992.2 (G.lite) annex A, B
and C; G.992.3 (ADSL2) including Annex A, B, C, I, J and L; G.992.5 (G.ADSL+) including Annex A, B, C,
I, J and Annex L.
Flexible bit assignment is foreseen to support ADSL overlay over POTS and ISDN but also All Digital loop
and overlapping spectra. Additional Reed-Solomon forward error correction with optional interleaving pro-
vides maximum noise immunity.

THE MODEM ENVIRONMENT
An integrated ADSL-compatible line driver is used to drive the telephone twisted pair, and a POTS/ISDN
splitter or adequate distributed filtering is required to split the baseband analogue telephone or ISDN sig-
nal from the modulated ADSL signal. In G.Lite mode, the splitter can be removed and replaced by distrib-
uted POTS filters. Brief characteristics of the system are given in Section 6. The bit rate can be varied in
steps of 32 kbits/s in ADSL and in steps of 1 kbit/s in ADSL2/ADSL+ mode.

CHIPSET FUNCTIONS
The functions performed by each IC are as follows:
5.1 ST20184
This CMOS IC contains the analogue functions required in the transceiver. In order to cope with the high
attenuation of the line and in order to maintain an acceptable noise level of the signal, Programmable gain
amplifiers have been implemented at the analogue front of the transmission and reception paths. In Re-
ception, the signal goes through a LNA, a high pass filter to eliminate echo and LNA before a low pass
filter for anti-aliasing. The AD and DA converters provide 14-bit resolution at 2.2 MHz sampling rate.
Finally, for the transmission part, the control of the external hybrid driver is done by a highly integrated
linear line driver.

5.2 ST20196
5.2.1 Discrete Multi Tone (DMT) Modulation and Demodulation
The ST20196 includes a digital Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) mapper/demapper which allows
coding of up to 15 bits per tone. The device incorporates the necessary Inverse- and Fast Fourier Trans-
form (IFFT, FFT), an innovative unique Per Tone Equalizer (PTEQ), echo cancelling (EC), Trellis coding
and decoding plus timing units and a fully digital clock recovery scheme (TDI). These last blocks feature
efficient synchronization algorithms to improve the efficiency of the recovery of data. The ST20196 per-
formances rely on embedded programmable cores.
In ADSL2 mode the modem supports diagnostics modes, enhanced power management modes to reduce
the CO power (L2), 1 bit constellation, relocatable and modulated pilot.
5.2.2 Framing Functions
The ST20196 incorporates framing functions for the generic and ATM Transmission Convergence (TC)
layers. The new TC layer architecture is fully under the control of an embedded controller. This provides
the flexibility to adapt to different framing variants via firmware. The TC consists of data scrambling and
Reed-Solomon error correction with and without inter-leaving. It also includes the rate converter function-
ality as defined in G.dmt Annex C. Several framing variants are implemented (such as interleaved and
non-interleaved modes, full and reduced overhead) to ensure compliance with ANSI T1.413 Issue 2 and
ITU G.992.1 (G.dmt), G.992.2 (G.Lite), G.992.3 and G.992.4.

5.2.3 Interface to Utopia Bus
The IC contains the ATM-related functions to interface with the ATM utopia bus an supports level 1 and 2
modes.
5.2.4 Control of Transceiver Chip
The ST20196 runs the firmware controlling the operations of the ADSL transceiver (AFE, DMT modem,
Framer). During modem initialisation, the controller computes and sets up parameters for all programma-
ble DMT functions, filters and equalizers. The ATM TC includes cell level functions (such as cell delinea-
tion, insertion/ extraction of idle cells, payload scrambling, HEC check) and data frame generation. The
controller is able to run in different rate-adaptive modes as defined by the operator. During operation, the
ST20196 performs continuous line monitoring and initiates consecutive actions as specified by the oper-
ator (e.g. bit-swapping, dynamic bit-rate adaptation, power management, … etc.) and collects perfor-
mance and error information for use by management entities.
5.2.5 Interface to Management Entities
The ST20196 also runs the communication protocol to interface with external management entities. A spe-
cific ADSL modem control interface has been defined to ease the integration with both systems hardware
and firmware. This control communication channel is used to transfer information and commands between
modem and management entities. These commands/responses are fully described in the CtrlE specifica-
tion and can be categorized as follows:
- Configuration of a modem line
- De-allocation of a modem line
- Operational Data Retrieval
- Performance Data Retrieval
- Defect Retrieval
