1-CHANNEL DS3/E3 CLEAR-CHANNEL FRAMERLIU COMBO - CC/HDLC ARCHITECTURE
REV. P2.0.0
If the interrupting device turns out to be the XRT79L71 ATM UNI/PPP/Clear-Channel DS3/E3 Framer IC, then
the C/P must determine which functional block requested the interrupt. Hence, upon reaching this state,
one of the very first things that the C/P must do within the user supplied XRT79L71 Interrupt Service
Routine, is to perform a read of both of the following registers.
Operation Interrupt Status Register - Byte 1 (Address = 0x0112)
Operation Interrupt Status Register - Byte 0 (Address = 0x0113)
The bit-format of each of these registers is presented below.
NOTE: For Clear-Channel Framer Applications, it is not necessary to read out the contents of the "Operation Interrupt
Status Register - Byte 0".
Each of the Operation Block Interrupt Status Register presents the interrupt-request status of each of the
functional blocks within the chip. The purpose of these two registers is to help the C/P identify which
functional block(s) has requested the interrupt. Whichever bit(s) are asserted, in this register, identifies which
block(s) has requested the interrupt. Whichever bit(s) are asserted, in this register, identifies which block(s)
have experienced an interrupt-generating condition as presented in Table 7. Once the C/P has read this
register, it can determine which branch within the interrupt service routine that it must follow in order to properly
service this interrupt.
The XRT79L71 ATM UNI/PPP/Clear-Channel DS3/E3 Framer IC further supports the Operational Block
hierarchy by providing the Operation Block Interrupt Enable Register - Bytes 1 and 0. The bit format of these
two registers are identical to that for the Operation Block Interrupt Status Registers - Byte 1 and 0, and are
presented below for the sake of completeness.
