The QAM receiver directly samples a tuner output with a 11-bit A/D converter and input ACG amplifier. The receiver digitally resamples and demodulates the signal with recovered clock and carrier timing, filters and equalizes the data and passes soft decisions to an ITU-T J.83 Annex A/B/C compatible decoder. The receiver supports variable symbol rate 4/16/32/64/128/256/512/1024-QAM FEC decoding. The final received data stream is delivered in a serial MPEG-2 transport format. All gain, clock, and carrier, acquisition and tracking loops are integrated in the QAM receiver. The upstream transmitter takes burst or continuous data, provides FEC encoding and pre-equalization for DOCSIS applications, filters and applies 2/4/8/16/64/128/256-QAM or S-CDMA, modulation to the data stream, amplifies the signal through the integrated upstream power amplifier and provides a direct 0–65 MHz analog output. DOCSIS 2.0 MAC Module 200-MHz MIPS32 Core with MMU SPI I/F Serial FLASH (optional) 8/8-KB I/D Cache BCM3348 The BCM3348 Media Access Controller (MAC) includes all features required for full DOCSIS 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0 compliance, including full support for baseline privacy (BPI+) encryption and decryption. Single-user support includes 4 SIDS in downstream, 4 DA perfect-match filters, a 256-entry CAM for multicast/unicast hash filter, and 4 independent upstream queues for simultaneous support of QoS and BE traffic. To enhance operational support, the BCM3348 MAC provides extended network management MIB/diagnostic features, as well as immediate UCC (on-the-fly) using independent resets for downstream and upstream and both individual queue reset/flush for upstream queues. The BCM3348 uses advanced PROPANE techniques to provide packet acceleration to significantly improve upstream channel utilization. With the incorporation of an upstream power amplifier, the BCM3348 allows a complete cable modem to be assembled with a minimal set of external components. When used with the silicon tuner, the BCM3348 offers the lowest-price solution for a high performance, single-user DOCSIS 2.0 cable modem.
