ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for interfacing between a Segmentation and Reassembly (SAR) circuit and an ATM Cell Interface is disclosed. The interface circuit comprises a transmit FIFO and a receive FIFO. The transmit FIFO transfers data from the System and ATM Layer Core in the SAR circuit to a Cell Interface block, which in turn dispatches the data to the ATM Cell Interface. The receive FIFO transfers data received from the ATM Cell Interface via the Cell Interface block, to the Core. Various interface signals provided between the Core and the transmit FIFO, the transmit FIFO and the Cell Interface block, the Core and the receive FIFO, and the receive FIFO and the Cell Interface block, are used to coordinate data transfer. The interface circuit insulates the Core from the ATM Cell Interface, allowing the Core to operate independently from ATM Cell Interface specifics.
