• Manufacturer Part Number: mt90224
• Description: 8-port Ima/tc Phy Device
• Manufacturer: Zarlink Semiconductor

5.6
In IMA mode, many MT90222/3/4s, with up to eight UTOPIA ports each (one port per IMA Group), can be served by
an external UTOPIA L2 ATM-Layer device provided the UTOPIA limitation of 31 ports in total is observed. This
provides up to 31 different logical IMA-channels. Note that port 31 (1F in hexadecimal format) is reserved.
Pease also refer to Technical Note ZLAN-88: UTOPIA Interface between MT90224/3/2 and Specific ATM
Controllers, as there might be some limitations on maximum number of PHY addresses supported depending on the
type of ATM controller that is interfaced with MT90224/3/2.

With UTOPIA loopback enabled
interface. The Rx UTOPIA interface will then output these cells.The UTOPIA loopback is enabled by setting the bit
9 in UTOPIA Input Control Register (0x0052). With UTOPIA loopback, only one PHY address can be tested at a
time.
