Abstract :
The ATM line terminator mono-chip (LTM) provides a highly integrated and cost effective implementation of the physical layer of the ATM network for cell-based interface. The LTM was designed in a BiCMOS process allowing the merging of CMOS data processing together with the high speed transceiver functions requested by ITU-T bit rates of 622.08 and 155.52 mbps. Internal design for testability provides easy testing at device and system levels
