27.4 Channel Extra Parameters
Table 27-2 describes extra parameters. This table is indexed by logical channel number.
27.5 Super-Channel Table
The super channel t able entry redirects an MCC slot to a different channel number. For this
reason, the transmitter super channel uses more FIFO (2 bytesÑhalf of a single channel
transmitter FIFOÑmultiplied by the number of the channels in the super channel) in the
MCC hardware.
On the transmitter side, super channels must be deÞned in the SI RAM (see Section 14.4.3,
ÒProgramming SIx RAM Entries,Ó for details) and a super-channel table must be created.
On the receiver side, the transparent super channels that require slot synchronization must
be programmed in the SI RAM as super channels (the slot synchronization ensures that the
data is aligned in the receiver buffer starting from the Þrst time slot after a sync pulse). In
this case, 1 byte of FIFO is allocated for each super channel. Transparent super channels
that do not require slot synchronization and HDLC super channels can be programmed in
the SI RAM as regular channels pointing to the same MCC channel. In this case the FIFO
allocated for each super channel is 2 bytes (and the CP load will be lower).
The example in Figure 27-3 shows the SI RAM programming and the super-channel table
for two transmitter super channels, one including slots 1, 6, and 7 and the second 2, 3, and
4. Figure 27-4 shows the SI RAM programming for the same transparent receiver super

TBASE
Hword TxBD base address. Offset of the channelÕs TxBD table relative to the MCCBASE (The
base address of the BD table for this channel 8*TBASE)

TBPTR
Hword TxBD pointer. Offset of the current BD relative to the MCCBASE. TBPTR is user-initialized
to TBASE before enabling the channel or after a fatal error before reinitializing the
channel. (The address of the BD in use for this channel 8*TBPTR)

RBASE
Hword RxBD base address. Offset of the channelÕs RxBD table relative to the MCCBASE. (The
base address of the BD table for this channel 8*RBASE)
0x06
RBPTR
Hword RxBD pointer. Offset of the current BD relative to the MCCBASE. RBPTR is user-
initialized to RBASE before enabling the channel or after a fatal error before reinitializing
the channel. (The address of the BD in use for this channel 8*RTBPTR)
