Description
The MT8985 Enhanced Digital Switch device is an
upgraded version of the popular MT8980D Digital
Switch (DX). It is pin compatible with the MT8980D
and retains all of the MT8980D's functionality. This
VLSI device is designed for switching PCM-encoded
voice or data, under microprocessor control, in digital
exchanges,
PBXs
and
any
ST-BUS/MVIP
environment. It provides simultaneous connections
for up to 256 64kb/s channels. Each of the eight
serial inputs and outputs consist of 32 64 kbit/s
channels multiplexed to form a 2048 kbit/s stream.
As the main function in switching applications, the
device provides per-channel selection between
variable or constant throughput delays. The constant
throughput delay feature allows grouped channels
such as ISDN H0 to be switched through the device
maintaining its sequence integrity. The MT8985 is
ideal for medium sized mixed voice/data switch and
voice processing applications.

Functional Description
With the integration of voice, video and data services
into the same network, there has been an increasing
demand for systems which ensure that data at N x 64
Kbit/s rates maintain frame sequence integrity while
being transported through time slot interchange
circuits. Existing requirements demand time slot
interchange devices performing switching with
constant throughput delay while guaranteeing
minimum delay for voice channels.
The MT8985 device provides both functions and
allows existing systems based on the MT8980D to
be easily upgraded to maintain the data integrity
while multiple channel data are transported. The
device is designed to switch 64 kbit/s PCM or N x 64
kbit/s data. The MT8985 can provide both frame
integrity for data applications and minimum
throughput switching delay for voice applications on
a per channel basis.
By using Mitel Message mode capability, the
microprocessor can access input and output time
slots on a per channel basis to control devices such
as the MITEL MT8972, ISDN Transceivers and T1/
CEPT trunk interfaces through the ST-BUS interface.
Different digital backplanes can be accepted by the
MT8985 device without user's intervention. The
MT8985 device provides an internal circuit that
automatically identifies the polarity and format of
frame synchronization input signals compatible to
ST-BUS and GCI interfaces.
Device Operation
A functional block diagram of the MT8985 device is
shown in Figure 1. The serial ST-BUS streams
operate continuously at 2.048 Mb/s and are arranged
in 125 µs wide frames each containing 32 8-bit
channels. Eight input (STi0-7) and eight output
(STo0-7) serial streams are provided in the MT8985
device allowing a complete 256 x 256 channel nonblocking switch matrix to be constructed. The serial
interface clock for the device is 4.096 MHz, as
required in ST-BUS and GCI specifications.
Data Memory
The received serial data is converted to parallel
format by the on-chip serial to parallel converters
and stored sequentially in a 256-position Data
Memory. The sequential addressing of the Data
Memory is generated by an internal counter that is
reset by the input 8 kHz frame pulse (F0i) marking
the frame boundaries of the incoming serial data
streams.
Depending on the type of information to be switched,
the MT8985 device can be programmed to perform
2-47
MT8985
time slot interchange functions with different
throughput delay capabilities on a per-channel basis.
For voice applications, the variable delay mode can
be selected ensuring minimum throughput delay
between input and output data. In multiple or
grouped channel data applications, the constant
delay mode can be selected maintaining the integrity
of the information through the switch.
Data to be output on the serial streams may come
from two sources: Data Memory or Connect Memory.
Locations in the Connect Memory, which is split into
HIGH and LOW parts, are associated with particular
ST-BUS output streams. When a channel is due to
be transmitted on an ST-BUS output, the data for the
channel can either be switched from an ST-BUS
input (connection mode) or it can be originated from
the microprocessor (message mode). If a channel is
configured in connection mode, the source of the
output data is the Data Memory. If a channel is
configured in message mode, the source of the
output data is the Connect Memory Low. Data
destined for a particular channel on the serial output
stream is read from the Data or Connect Memory
Low during the previous channel time slot. This
allows enough time for memory access and internal
parallel to serial conversion.
Connection and Message Modes
In connection mode, the addresses of input source
for all output channels are stored in the Connect
memory Low. The Connect Memory Low locations
are mapped to each location corresponding to an
output 64 kb/s channel. The contents of the Data
memory at the selected address are then transferred
to the parallel to serial converters. By having the
output channel to specify the input channel through
the connect memory, the user can route the same
input channel to several output channels, allowing
broadcasting facility in the switch.
In message mode the CPU writes data to the
Connect Memory Low locations which correspond to
the output link and channel number. The contents of
the Connect Memory Low are transferred to the
parallel to serial converter one channel before it is to
be output. The Connect Memory Low data is
transmitted each frame to the output until it is
changed by the CPU.
The per-channel functions available in the MT8985
are controlled by the Connect Memory High bits,
which determine whether individual output channels
are selected into specific conditions such as:
message or connection mode, variable or constant
throughput delay modes, output drivers enabled or in
2-48
three-state condition. In addition, the Connect
Memory High provides one bit to allow the user to
control the state of the CSTo output pin.
If an output channel is set to three-state condition,
the TDM serial stream output will be placed in high
impedance during that channel time. In addition to
the per-channel three-state control, all channels on
the TDM outputs can be placed in high impedance at
one time by pulling the ODE input pin in LOW. This
overrides the individual per-channel programming on
the Connect Memory High bits.
The Connect Memory data is received via the
Microprocessor Interface at D0-D7 lines. The
addressing of the MT8985 internal registers, Data
and Connect memories is performed through
address input pins and some bits of the device's
Control register. The higher order address bits come
from the Control register, which may be written or
read through the microprocessor interface. The lower
order address bits come directly from the external
address line inputs. For details on the device
addressing, see Software Control and Control
register description.
Serial Interface Timing
The MT8985 master clock (C4i) is a 4.096 MHz
allowing serial data link configuration at 2.048 Mb/s
to
be
implemented.
The
MT8985
frame
synchronization pulse can be formatted according to
ST-BUS or GCI interface specifications; i.e., the
frame pulse can be active in HIGH (GCI) or LOW
(ST-BUS). The MT8985 device automatically detects
the presence of an input frame pulse and identifies
the type of backplane present on the serial interface.
Upon determining the correct interface connected to
the serial port, the internal timing unit establishes the
appropriate serial data bit transmit and sampling
edges. In ST-BUS mode, every second falling edge
of the 4.096 MHz clock marks a bit boundary and the
input data is clocked in by the rising edge, three
quarters of the way into the bit cell. In GCI mode,
every second rising edge of the 4.096 MHz clock
marks the bit boundary while data sampling is
performed during the falling edge, at three quarters
of the bit boundaries.
Delay through the MT8985
The transfer of information from the input serial
streams to the output serial streams results in a
delay through the MT8985 device. The delay through
the MT8985 device varies according to the mode
selected in the V/C bit of the connect memory high.
MT8985
Variable Delay mode
The delay in this mode is dependent only on the
combination of source and destination channels and
it is not dependent on the input and output streams.
The minimum delay achievable in the MT8985 device
is 3 time slots. In the MT8985 device, the information
that is to be output in the same channel position as
the information is input (position n), relative to frame
pulse, will be output in the following frame (channel
n, frame n+1). The same occurs if the input channel
has to be output in the two channels succeeding
(n+1 and n+2) the channel position as the
information is input.
output frame N+2. In Constant Delay mode, the
device throughput delay is calculated according to
the following formula:
DELAY = [32 + (32 - IN) + (OUT - 1)];
(expressed in number of time slots)
Where:
IN is the number of the input time slot
(from 1 to 32).
OUT is the number of the output time slot
(from 1 to 32).
Microprocessor Port
The information switched to the third timeslot after
the input has entered the device (for instance, input
channel 0 to output channel 3 or input channel 30 to
output channel 1), is always output three channels
later.
Any switching configuration that provides three or
more timeslots between input and output channels,
will have a throughput delay equal to the difference
between the output and input channels; i.e., the
throughput delay will be less than one frame. Table 1
shows the possible delays for the MT8985 device in
Variable Delay mode:
Input

n+2
m-n + 32 timeslots

32-(n-m) time slots
Table 1
Constant Delay Mode
In this mode frame integrity is maintained in all
switching configurations by making use of a multiple
Data-Memory buffer technique where input channels
written in any of the buffers during frame N will be
read out during frame N+2. In the MT8985, the
minimum throughput delay achiev-able in Constant
Delay mode will be 32 time slots; for example, when
input time slot 32 (channel 31) is switched to output
time slot 1 (channel 0). Likewise, the maximum delay
is achieved when the first time slot in a frame
(channel 0) is switched to the last time slot in the
frame (channel 31), resulting in 94 time slots of
delay.
To summarize, any input time slot from input frame N
will be always switched to the destination time slot on
The MT8985 microprocessor port has pin
compatibility with Mitel MT8980 Digital Switch device
providing a non-multiplexed bus architecture. The
parallel port consists of an 8 bit parallel data bus
(D0-D7), six address input lines (A0-A5) and four
control lines (CS, DS, R/W and DTA). This parallel
microport allows the access to the Control registers,
Connection Memory High, Connection Memory Low
and the Data Memory. All locations are read/written
except for the data memory which can be read only.
Accesses from the microport to the connection
memory and the data memory are multiplexed with
accesses from the input and output TDM ports. This
can cause variable Data Acknowledge delays (DTA).
In the MT8985 device, the DTA output provides a
maximum acknowledgement delay of 800 ns for
read/write operations in the Connection Memory.
However, for operations in the Data Memory
(Message Mode), the maximum acknowledgement
delay can be 1220 ns.

Software Control
The address lines on the microprocessor interface
give access to the MT8985 internal registers and
memories. If the A5,A1,A0 address line inputs are
2-49
MT8985
LOW, then the MT8985 Internal Control Register is
addressed (see Figure 3). If A5 input line is HIGH,
then the remaining address input lines are used to
select Memory subsections of 32 locations
corresponding to the number of channels per input or
output stream. As explained in the Control register
description, the address input lines and the Stream
Address bits (STA) of the Control register give the
user the capability of selecting all positions of the
MT8985 Data and Connect memories.
The data in the Control register consists of Split
memory and Message mode bits, Memory select and
Stream Address bits (see Figure 4). The memory
select bits allow the Connect Memory HIGH or LOW
or the Data Memory to be chosen, and the Stream
Address bits define an internal memory subsections
corresponding to input or output ST-BUS streams.
Bit 7 (Split Memory) of the Control register allows
split memory operation whereby reads are from the
Data memory and writes are to the Connect Memory
LOW.
The Message Enable bit (bit 6) places every output
channel on every output stream in message mode;
i.e., the contents of the Connect Memory LOW

(CML) are output on the ST-BUS output streams
once every frame unless the ODE input pin is LOW.
If ME bit is HIGH, then the MT8985 behaves as if bits
2 (Message Channel) and 0 (Output Enable) of every
Connect Memory HIGH (CMH) locations were set to
HIGH, regardless of the actual value. If ME bit is
LOW, then bit 2 and 0 of each Connect Memory
HIGH location operates normally. In this case, if bit 2
of the CMH is HIGH, the associated ST-BUS output
channel is in Message mode. If bit 2 of the CMH is
LOW, then the contents of the CML define the source
information (stream and channel) of the time slot that
is to be switched to an output.
If the ODE input pin is LOW, then all serial outputs
are high-impedance. If ODE is HIGH, then bit 0
(Output Enable) of the CMH location enables (if
HIGH) or disables (if LOW) the output drivers for the
corresponding individual ST-BUS output stream and
channel.
The contents of bit 1 (CSTo) of each Connection
Memory High location (see Figure 5) is output on
CSTo pin once every frame. The CSTo pin is a 2048
Mbit/s output which carries 256 bits. If CSTo bit is set
HIGH, the corresponding bit on CSTo output is

corresponding bit on the CSTo output is transmitted
in LOW. The contents of the 256 CSTo bits of the
CMH are transmitted sequentially on to the CSTo
output pin and are synchronous to the ST-BUS
streams. To allow for delay in any external control
circuitry the contents of the CSTo bit is output one
channel before the corresponding channel on the STBUS streams. For example, the contents of CSTo bit
in position 0 (ST0, CH0) of the CMH, is transmitted
synchronously with ST-BUS channel 31, bit 7. The
contents of CSTo bit in position 32 (ST1, CH0) of the
CMH is transmitted during ST-BUS channel 31 bit 6.
Bit V/C (Variable/Constant Delay) on the Connect
Memory High locations allow per-channel selection
between Variable and Constant throughput delay
capabilities.
Initialization of the MT8985
On initialization or power up, the contents of the
Connection Memory High can be in any state. This
is a potentially hazardous condition when multiple
MT8985 ST-BUS outputs are tied together to form
matrices, as these outputs may conflict. The ODE
pin should be held low on power up to keep all
outputs in the high impedance condition.

MT8985
During the microprocessor initialization routine, the
microprocessor should program the desired active
paths through the matrices, and put all other
channels into the high impedance state. Care should
be taken that no two connected ST-BUS outputs
drive the bus simultaneously. When this process is
complete, the microprocessor controlling the
matrices can bring the ODE signal high to relinquish
high impedance state control to the CMHb0s.
Applications
time slots to carry voice, data and video (channels of
128, 256 Kb/s, ISDN H0 and others), the central
routing matrix has to guarantee constant throughput
delay to maintain the sequence integrity between
input and output channels.
Figure 7 shows an
example where the MT8985 device guarantees data
integrity when data flows from the T1/E1 to the S/U
interface links and vice-versa. Modern technologies
available today such as Frame Relay network using

Isochronous Network

predictable data transfer delays that can be
implemented at a reasonable cost. The Low Latency
Isochronous Network is one of the alternatives that
system designers have chosen to accommodate this
requirement (see Figure 8a). This network can be
implemented using existing TDM transmission media
devices such as ISDN Basic (S or U) and Primary
rates trunks (T1 and CEPT) to transport mixed voice
and data signals in grouped time slots; for example,
2B channels in case of ISDN S or U interfaces or up
to 32 channels in case of a CEPT link.
Figure 8b shows a more detailed configuration
whereby several PCs are connected to form an
Isochronous network. Several services can be
interconnected within a single PC chassis through
the standardized Multi Vendor Integration Protocol
(MVIP). Such an interface allows the distribution and
interconnection of services like voice mail, integrated
voice response, voice recognition, LAN gateways,
key systems, fax servers, video cards, etc.
The information being exchanged between cards
through the MVIP interface on every computer as
well as between computers through T1 or CEPT links
is, in general, of mixed type where 64Kb/s and
N*64Kb/s channels are grouped together. When
such a mixed type of data is transferred between
cards within one chassis or from one computer to
another, the sequence integrity of the concatenated
channels has to be maintained. The MT8985 device
suits this application and can be used to form a
complete non-blocking switch matrix of 512 channels
(see Figure 9). This allows 8 pairs of ST-BUS
streams to be dedicated to the MVIP side whereas
the remaining 8 pairs are used for local ancilliary
functions in typical dual T1/E1 interface applications
(Figure 10).
Another application of the MT8985 in an MVIP
environment is to build an ISDN S-interface card
(Figure 11). In this card, 7 pairs of ST-BUS streams
are connected to the MVIP interface while the
remaining pair is reserved for the interconnection of
MITEL MT8930 (SNIC), MT8992 (H-PHONE) and
the MVIP interface.
