CY7C955 Overview
The Cypress Semiconductor CY7C955 is a Transceiver chip designed to carry ATM cells across SONET/SDH systems. On the transmit side, ATM cells ing from the Utopia interface are being mapped into SONET/SDH frames and then serialized for transmission over fiber or twisted pair (through an optical module or an equalizer chip). On the receive side, serial SONET/SDH datastreams ing from an optical module or an equalizer...
