Device Overview
The MT90820 Large Digital Switch is capable of switching up to 2,048 × 2,048 channels. The MT90820 is designed
to switch 64 kbit/s PCM or N x 64 kbit/s data. The device maintains frame integrity in data applications and
minimum throughput delay for voice applications on a per channel basis.
The serial input streams of the MT90820 can have a bit rate of 2.048, 4.096 or 8.192 Mbit/s and are arranged in
125 µs wide frames, which contain 32, 64 or 128 channels, respectively. The data rates on input and output
streams are identical.
By using Zarlink’s message mode capability, the microprocessor can access input and output time-slots on a per
channel basis. This feature is useful for transferring control and status information for external circuits or other ST-
BUS devices. The MT90820 automatically identifies the polarity of the frame synchronization input signal and
configures its serial streams to be compatible to either ST-BUS or GCI formats.
Two different microprocessor bus interfaces can be selected through the Input Mode pin (IM): Non-multiplexed or
Multiplexed. These interfaces provide compatibility with multiplexed and Motorola non-multiplexed buses.
The frame offset calibration function allows users to measure the frame offset delay using a frame evaluation pin
(FE). The input offset delay can be programmed for individual streams using internal frame input offset registers,
see Table 11.
The internal loopback allows the ST-BUS output data to be looped around to the ST-BUS inputs for diagnostic
purposes.
Functional Description
A functional Block Diagram of the MT90820 is shown in Figure 1.
Data and Connection Memory
For all data rates, the received serial data is converted to parallel format by internal serial-to-parallel converters and
stored sequentially in the data memory. Depending upon the selected operation programmed in the interface mode
select (IMS) register, the useable data memory may be as large as 2,048 bytes. The sequential addressing of the
data memory is performed by an internal counter, which is reset by the input 8 kHz frame pulse (F0i) to mark the
frame boundaries of the incoming serial data streams.

Output Drive Enable (Input): This is the output enable control for the STo0 to STo15
serial outputs. When ODE input is low and the OSB bit of the IMS register is low, STo0-
15 are in a high impedance state. If this input is high, the STo0-15 output drivers are
enabled. However, each channel may still be put into a high impedance state by using the
per channel control bit in the connection memory.
Data Stream Output 0 to 7 (Three-state Outputs): Serial data Output stream. These
streams have selectable data rates of 2.048, 4.096 or 8.192 Mb/s.
No connection.
