block drives, through the STLC60134’sintegrated
VCXO controller, the NT crystal oscillator which
comes up in an excellent synchronisation (less
than2ppm)between ATU-C and ATU-R.
FRAMING Functions
STLC60135 performs framing functions for ge-
neric and ATM TC sub layers.
ATMTC sub layerperformscell level functions:de-
lineation,idle cells or unassignedcells insertion/ex-
traction, payload scrambling, Header Error Correc-
tion(HEC)checkanddataframegeneration.
In order to comply with T1.413 Issue 2 rules and
full interoperability with other manufacturers’ mo-
dems (providing they guarantee compliance with
either Issue 1 or Issue 2) framing features (such
as interleaving and fast mode) are implemented
with programmableparameters.
ATM frames can be bypassed in order to carry
non-ATM bit streams, which makes the chip set
very fit for applications using dedicated framing
such as Frame-relay,etc.

Time-domain equalisation
Decimation, interpolation,

ADSL Modem control software
The ADSL transceiver is based on a programma-
ble DMT modem (STLC60135) whose configura-
tionis loaded by an externalcontroller.
Additionally the control functions, STMicroelec-
tronics provides the DTM modem software. The
software is written in C++ language, and is de-
signed to be portableto anyprocessor.
The driver has to be interfaced with a real time
OS kermel, it is compatible with any standard
product available on the market. The kernel man-
ages the tasksdedicated to modemsoftware.
The modem 5W core comes with three additional
two software modules: a Board Support Package
(BSP) and two Application Program Interfaces
(API). BSP manages the hardware dependent
features(i.e. interrupts,peripheral mapping).
APIs interface to the higher level application soft-
ware and to the OS.
ADSL Loop performances
The hereafter tables show the performances that
a system, which houses TOSCA, can achieve for
ANSI and ETSI loops. The following results refer
