The Challenge

The client had developed telecommunication devices using a number of network technologies, one of which was the "Asynchronous Transfer Mode" (ATM). This technology had achieved a high level of acceptance in the marketplace based on its speed. Facing the rapid growth of ATM technology, the company contracted LANIT-TERCOM to implement their decision to develop an ATM switch based on custom ASIC, and equipped with its own software.

The Solution

A set of program units for ATM-network access (8 type of units) was implemented on the FPGA (for prototyping), and a Motorola processor. The project included development of dozens of functionally completed VHDL units ("macrocells") with their subsequent synthesis to the target technology, as well as their integration and complex debugging of the newly developed ATM-equipment prototypes together with the network software. The final set of modules was successfully integrated to ASIC and installed into the target device.

Tools and Technologies

VHDL, FPGA Xilinx, Motorola tools, Mentor Graphics tools (Idea Station, QuickSim, BoardStation), Synopsis tools, Xilinx tools (Alianance, Foundation)
