REV. 1.0.1
OCTAL T1/E1/J1 FRAMER
DMA-0 WRITE DMA INTERFACE
DMA 0 Controller Interface handles data transfer between external memory and the selected Transmit HDLC
Buffer.
The DMA cycle starts when the XRT84L38 asserts the REQ0 output pin. The external DMA Controller then
responds by asserting the ACK0 input pin. The contents of the Microprocessor Interface bi-directional data bus
are latched into the XRT84L38 each time the pWRL (Write Strobe) input pin is strobed “Low”.
The XRT84L38 ends the DMA cycle by negating the DMA request input (REQ0) while WR is still active. The
external DMA Controller acknowledges the end of DMA Transfer by driving the ACK0 input pin “High”.

1.5 Memory and Register Map
This section presents a complete list of the Framer external memory address map and the internal memory
map. In addition, the allocations of the three internal storage spaces is depicted.
1.5.1 Memory Mapped I/O Indirect Addressing
The XRT84L38 employs a complete indirect addressing approach for the Microprocessor Interface; in order to
support multiple channel implementations, maintaining rich user-controlled features, minimizing the total pin
count and providing future scalability without sacrificing performance for microcontroller access. Eight address
bits are used with the 4 MSB (most significant bits) identifying each of the eight framers channels and the 4
LSBs to address the indirect mapping registers.
The XRT84L38 framer has approximately 5,800 addressable spaces internally. If each of these addresses has
to be accessed directly, it would require a 13-bit address bus. In order to control total pin count as well as to
provide future scalability, the XRT84L38 employs an Indirect Addressing Scheme. Using this technique, only 7
address input pins on the XRT84L38 are needed.
The addressable spaces within the XRT84L38 are divided into groups of registers. Each register group
consists of a specific number of indirect address registers and a same number of indirect data registers with
the exception of LAPD Buffer 0 and 1. Of the 7 total address input bits, the 3 MSB pins are used to identify
each of eight T1/E1 framer channels. The remaining 4 LSB bits are used to address the register groups.
Table 8 indicates the address mapping of all the register groups within the XRT84L38. Please note that the
indirect address registers are with even addresses and the corresponding indirect data registers are with odd
addresses with the exception of, again, the LAPD Buffer 0 and 1. The n corresponds to the channel number.
