Abstract :
The line terminator (LT) is designed to support the transmission convergence (TC) sublayer in the physical layer of the ATM network. It provides high speed data communication; CCITT bit rates of 622.08 Mbit/s and 155.52 Mbit/s are supported. The LT chip has a standard microprocessor interface for ATM components. The transmit and receive sections of the LT chip are independent and can operate simultaneously
