ASCOT ADSL MODEM CHIP SET FOR CPE

STMicroelectronics 

ST70134 - ST70135A

ADSL Modem control software

The ADSL transceiver is based on a

programmable DMT modem (ST70135A) whose

configuration is loaded by an external controller.

Figure 4 : Software Architecture

USER HIGH LEVEL SOFTWARE

The modem Software core comes with two

software modules: Board Support Package (BSP)

and Application Programming Interface (API).

BSP manages the hardware dependent features

(i.e. interrupts, peripheral mapping).

APIs interface to the higher level application

software and to the OS.

ADSL Loop performances

The hereafter tables show the performances that

a system, which houses ASCOT, can achieve for

ANSI and ETSI loops. The following results refer

to an end-to end ADSL equipment with no

external disturbance.

Additionally to the control functions, STMicro-

electronics provides the DMT modem software.

The software is written in C++ language, and is

designed to be portable to any processor.

The driver has to be interfaced with a real time OS

kernel, it is compatible with any standard product

available on the market. The kernel manages the

tasks dedicated to modem software.
