Description
The MT8930C Subscriber Network Interface Circuit
(SNIC) implements the ETSI ETS 300-012, CCITT
I.430 and ANSI T1.605 Recommendations for the
ISDN S and T reference points. Providing point-to-
point and point-to-multipoint digital transmission, the
SNIC may be used at either end of the subscriber
line (NT or TE).
An HDLC D-channel protocoller is included and
controlled through a Motorola/Intel microprocessor
port. A controllerless mode allows the SNIC to
operate without a microprocessor.
The MT8930C is fabricated in Mitel’s CMOS
process.

HALF
Description
HALF Input/Output:
this is an input in NT mode and an output in TE mode identifying
which half of the S-interface frame is currently being written/read over the ST-BUS
(HALF = 0 sampled on the falling edge of C4b within the frame pulse low window,
identifies the information to be transmitted/received in the first half of the S-Bus frame
while HALF = 1 identifies the information to be transmitted/received into the second half
of the S-Bus frame). Tying this pin to V
SS
or V
DD
in NT mode will allow the device to
free run. This signal can also be accessed from the ST-BUS C-channel.
4.096 MHz Clock:
a 4.096 MHz ST-BUS Data Clock input in NT mode.
In TE mode, a 4.096 MHz output clock phase-locked to the line data signal.
Frame Pulse:
an active low frame pulse input indicating the beginning of active ST-
BUS channel times in NT mode. Frame pulse output in TE mode.
Delayed Frame Pulse Output:
an active low delayed frame pulse output indicating
the end of active ST-BUS channels for this device. Can be used to daisy chain
to other ST-BUS devices to share an ST-BUS stream.
Data ST-BUS Input:
a 2048 kbit/s serial PCM/data ST-BUS input with D, C, B1, and B2
channels assigned to the first four timeslots. These channels contain data to be
transmitted on the line and chip control information.
Data ST-BUS Output:
a 2048 kbit/s serial PCM/data ST-BUS output with D, C, B1 and
B2 channels assigned to the first four timeslots respectively. The remaining timeslots
are placed into high impedance. These channels contain data received from the line
and chip status information.
Controller Mode Select Input:
when high, microprocessor control is selected. When
low the controllerless mode is enabled and the microport pins are redefined as control
inputs and status outputs.
TE Clock/Network Termination Mode Select Input.
For TE mode, this pin must be
tied to V
SS
or to a 4.096 MHz clock (a clock is required for standard ISDN TE
applications). For NT mode, this pin must be tied to V
DD
. Refer to “ST-BUS Interface”
section for further explanation. A pull-up resistor is needed when driven by a TTL
device.

R/W
/
WR
Read/Write or Write Input (Cmode = 1):
defines the data bus transfer as a read (R/
W=1) or a write (R/W=0) in Motorola bus mode. Redefined to WR in Intel bus mode.
AFT/PRI
Adaptive-Fixed Timing/Priority Select Input (Cmode=0):
in NT mode, causes the
PLL and Rx filters and peak detectors to be disabled in favour of fixed timing and fixed
thresholds for short passive bus operation (0=fixed, 1=adaptive). In TE mode, this is the
Priority input. High priority (PRI=1) is normally reserved for signalling.
DS/RD
Data Strobe/Read Input (Cmode = 1):
active high input indicates to the SNIC that
valid data is on the bus during a write operation or that the SNIC must output data
during a read operation in Motorola bus mode. Redefined to RD in Intel bus mode.
D-Channel in B1 Timeslot Input (Cmode = 0):
active high input that causes all
eight ST-BUS D-channel bits, instead of the usual two bits, to be routed to and
from the S-interface B1 timeslot. When active, marks are transmitted in the
S-interface D-channel.
Address Strobe/Address Latch Enable Input (Cmode = 1):
in Motorola bus mode
the falling edge is used to strobe the address into the SNIC during microprocessor
access. Redefined to ALE in Intel bus mode.
Parallel/Serial Control Input (Cmode = 0):
determines if the serial C-channel
(P/SC=0)
or microport pins (P/SC=1) are the source of chip control when controllerless
mode is selected. If the ST-BUS is chosen as the source, the dedicated Control input
pins are ignored but the status output pins remain valid.
Chip Select Input (Cmode=1):
active low input used to select the SNIC for
microprocessor access.
D-Channel Request Input (Cmode = 0):
an active high input that in TE mode only
causes the SNIC to transmit a “01111110” flag immediately if the D-channel is free, or
wait until it becomes available and then transmit the flag. The DCack signals the
successful acquisition of the D-channel. If DReq is tied low, continuous ones are
transmitted in the S-Bus D-channel.
Internal Connection (Cmode = 0):
tie to V
SS
for normal operation in NT mode only.
Interrupt Request (Open Drain Output) (Cmode = 1):
an output indicating an
unmasked HDLC interrupt. The interrupt remains active until the microprocessor clears
it by reading the HDLC Interrupt Status Register. This interrupt source is enabled with
B2=0 of Master Control Register.
New Data Available (Open Drain Output) (Cmode = 1):
an active low output signal
indicating availability of new data from the S-Bus. This signal is selected with B2=1 of
Master Control Register.
D-Channel Acknowledge (Open Drain Output) (Cmode = 0):
in TE mode only
indicates that the SNIC has gained access to the D-channel in response to a DReq and
has transmitted the first zero of an opening flag. The user should immediately begin
transmitting the rest of the packet over the ST-BUS D-channel. If this signal goes high
in the middle of transmission, the TE has lost the bus and must regain access of the D-
channel before retransmitting the packet.
Internal Connection (Open Drain Output) (C-mode=0).
This pin is not used in NT
mode and should be left disconnected.
This pin must be tied to V
DD
with a 10kΩ resistor.
Ground.
Bidirectional Address/Data Bus (Cmode = 1):
electrically and logically compatible to
either Intel or Motorola micro-bus specifications. If DS/RD is low on the rising edge of
AS/ALE then the chip operates to Motorola specs. If DS/RD is high on the rising edge
of AS/ALE Intel mode is selected. Taking Rsti low sets Motorola mode.
Internal State Outputs (Cmode =0):
Binary encoded state number outputs.

SYNC/BA
Synchronization/Bus Activity Output (Cmode = 0):
output indicating synchronization
to incoming RX frames when activation request is asserted and the deactivation request
is ’0’ (AR = 1 and DR = 0). Synchronization is declared once three successive frames
conforming to the 14-bit bipolar violation criteria have been detected. If part is
deactivated or activation request is ’0’ (AR = 0 or DR = 1), this pin indicates the
presence of bus activity.
MFR
Multiframe Input/Output (Cmode=0):
multiframe input in NT mode or output in TE
mode. Setting this pin to one in NT mode when HALF = 1, forces the F
A
, N pair to 1, 0
respectively. This pin going high in TE mode indicates that F
A
= 1 & N= 0 has been
received. This signal is updated on the rising edge of the HALF signal.
Maintenance Channel (Q-channel) Input/Output (Cmode=0):
an output in NT mode
which is valid only in the frame following the transmission of MFR. In TE mode, this is
the maintenance channel (Q-channel) input which is transmitted in the F
A
and L bits
following the reception of the multiframe signal. This input is sampled on the falling
edge of the HALF signal.
M/S Input/Output (Cmode=0):
M/S bit input in NT mode or M/S bit output in TE mode.
M is read or written when HALF=1 while S is read or written when HALF=0.
Activate Request Input (Cmode = 0):
asserting AR with DR = 0 will initiate the
appropriate S-interface activation sequence coded in the NT or TE activation/
deactivation controller.
Deactivate Request Input (Cmode = 0):
asserting DR high will initiate the appropriate
S-interface deactivation sequence coded in the NT or TE activation/ deactivation
controller.
Reset Input:
Schmitt trigger reset input. If ’0’, sets all control registers to the default
conditions, resets activation state machines to the deactivated state, resets HDLC,
clears the HDLC FIFO‘s. Sets the microport to Motorola bus mode.

Star/Reset (Open Drain Output):
192kbit/s Rx data output fixed relative to the ST-
BUS timebase. A group of NTs, in fixed timing mode, can be wire or’ed together to
create a Star configuration. Active low reset output in TE mode indicating 128
consecutive marks have been received. Can be connected directly to Rsti to allow NT
to reset all TEs on the bus. This pin must be tied to V
DD
with a 10 kΩ resistor.
LRx
Receive Line Signal Input:
this is a high impedance input for the pseudoternary line
signal to be connected to the line through a 2:1 ratio transformer. See Figures 20 and
21. A DC bias level on this input equal to V
Bias
must be maintained.
Transmit Line Signal Output:
this is a current source output designed to drive a
nominal 50 ohm line through a 2:1 ratio transformer. See Figures 20 and 21.
Bias Voltage:
analog ground for Tx and Rx transformers. This pin must be decoupled
to V
DD
through a 10µF capacitor with good high frequency characteristics (i.e.,
tantalum).

Preliminary Information
Functional Description
The MT8930C Subscriber Network Interface Circuit
(SNIC) is a multifunction transceiver providing a
complete interface to the S/T Reference Point as
specified in ETS 300-012, CCITT Recommendation
I.430 and ANSI T1.605. Implementing both
point-to-point and point-to-multipoint voice/data
transmission, the SNIC may be used at either end of
the digital subscriber loop. A programmable digital
interface allows the MT8930C to be configured as a
Network Termination (NT) or as a Terminal
Equipment (TE) device.
The SNIC supports 192 kbit/s (2B+D + overhead) full
duplex data transmission on a 4-wire balanced
transmission line. Transmission capability for both B
and D channels, as well as related timing and
synchronization functions, are provided on chip. The
signalling capability and procedures necessary to
enable customer terminals (TEs) to be activated and
deactivated, form part of the MT8930C’s
functionality. The SNIC handles D-channel resource
allocation and prioritization for access contention
resolution and signalling requirements in passive bus
line configurations. Control and status information
MT8930C
allows implementation of maintenance functions and
monitoring of the device and the subscriber loop.
An HDLC transceiver is included on the SNIC for link
access protocol handling via the D-channel.
Depacketized data is passed to and from the
transceiver via the microprocessor port. Two 19 byte
deep FIFOs, one for transmit and one for receive,
are provided to buffer the data. The HDLC block can
be set up to transmit or receive to/from either the
S-interface port or the ST-BUS port. Further, the
transmit destination and receive source can be
independently selected, e.g., transmit to S-interface
while receiving from ST-BUS. The transmit and
receive paths can be separately enabled or disabled.
Both, one and two byte address recognition is
supported by the SNIC. A transparent mode allows
data to be passed directly to the D channel without
being packetized.
A block diagram of the MT8930C is shown in Figure
1. The SNIC has three interface ports: a 4-wire
CCITT compatible S/T interface (subscriber loop
interface), a 2048 kbit/s ST-BUS serial port, and a
general purpose parallel microprocessor port. This
8-bit parallel port is compatible with both Motorola or
