Product details
Overview
IDT7290820JG8 from Integrated Device Technology, Inc. is a 5V, 2,048 × 2,048 non-blocking time slot interchange (TSI) digital switch optimized for ST-BUS®/GCI and wide frame pulse (WFP) telecommunication interfaces. It supports serial data rates of 2.048 Mb/s, 4.096 Mb/s, or 8.192 Mb/s with per-channel variable or constant throughput delay, JTAG IEEE-1149.1 test port, and 16 RX/TX serial streams - deployed in PCM channel switching, TDM multiplexing, and voice/data concentrators.
For engineers reviewing the IDT7290820JG8 datasheet, IDT7290820JG8 pinout, IDT7290820JG8 application, or IDT7290820JG8 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 84-pin PLCC package (order code J), 5V supply compatibility, per-stream frame offset calibration, Processor/Connection mode flexibility, and support for both Motorola and Intel microprocessor bus interfaces.
Technical Context
The IDT7290820JG8 implements a dual-mode TSI architecture with dedicated data memory (up to 2,048 bytes) and connection memory (16×128 locations), enabling per-channel source address mapping (CAB/SAB bits) and real-time reconfiguration. Its timing unit synchronizes to F0i (8 kHz frame pulse) and CLK (4.096–16.384 MHz), with automatic ST-BUS®/GCI format detection when WFPS = LOW.
It integrates a JTAG boundary-scan controller (TMS/TDI/TDO/TCK/TRST), internal loopback (LPBK bit per channel), and programmable input frame offset registers (FOR) with ±4.5 CLK-period resolution. The ODE pin and OSB bit jointly control TX0–TX15 three-state output drivers, while CCO provides a synchronous 4.096/8.192/16.384 Mb/s control stream derived from connection memory CCO bits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Capacity | 2,048 × 2,048 channels @ 8.192 Mb/s; scales to 1,024 × 1,024 @ 4.096 Mb/s or 512 × 512 @ 2.048 Mb/s - defines maximum concurrent PCM time-slot interchanges without blocking. |
| Serial Data Rate | 2.048 / 4.096 / 8.192 Mb/s - determines frame size (32/64/128 slots/frame) and required master clock (CLK = 2× data rate). |
| Throughput Delay Mode | Per-channel selectable Variable (min. 3 time-slots) or Constant (min. 1 frame) delay - preserves voice latency or data frame integrity respectively. |
| Microprocessor Interface | Intel/Motorola compatible, multiplexed or non-multiplexed - eliminates glue logic via IM pin-driven auto-detection of bus timing mode. |
| JTAG Support | IEEE-1149.1 compliant (TMS/TDI/TDO/TCK/TRST) - enables boundary-scan testing and in-system debug without external probes. |
| Operating Voltage | +5.0 V ±5% - requires single-supply rail; all I/O pins are 5V-tolerant. |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade telecom equipment deployment. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 84-pin Plastic Leaded Chip Carrier (PLCC), 0.05″ pitch, 1.15″ × 1.15″ (order code J). Pin 1 marked by index notch; IC pin tied to GND for normal operation and IEEE-1149.1 compliance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RX0–RX15 | Serial input data streams | 16 bidirectional-capable inputs accepting 2.048/4.096/8.192 Mb/s ST-BUS®/GCI/WFP frames; each configurable for independent frame offset calibration. |
| TX0–TX15 | Serial output data streams | 16 three-state outputs driven by data memory or connection memory; output enable controlled globally (ODE/OSB) and per-channel (OE bit). |
| F0i | Frame synchronization input | Accepts 8 kHz frame pulse; automatically detects ST-BUS® (falling-edge aligned) or GCI (rising-edge aligned) format when WFPS = LOW. |
| FE/HCLK | Frame evaluation or HCLK input | In ST-BUS®/GCI mode: measures input frame skew vs. F0i; in WFP mode: provides 4.096 MHz HCLK for frame alignment. |
| CLK | Master serial clock input | Accepts 4.096 MHz (2.048 Mb/s), 8.192 MHz (4.096 Mb/s), or 16.384 MHz (8.192 Mb/s); clock edge determines bit sampling point per interface mode. |
| CS, DS/RD, R/W/WR, AS/ALE, IM, A0–A7, AD0–AD7, D8–D15 | Microprocessor interface signals | Supports Motorola non-multiplexed (16-bit data bus), Motorola multiplexed (AD0–AD7 + D8–D15), and Intel multiplexed modes - selected dynamically via IM and AS/ALE timing. |
| DTA | Data transfer acknowledgment | Active-LOW open-drain signal indicating completion of microport access; transitions HIGH → high-Z to enable faster bus cycles with weak pull-up. |
| CCO | Control channel output | Serial 4.096/8.192/16.384 Mb/s stream carrying CCO bits from connection memory - synchronized to TX streams, output one channel early. |
| ODE | Output drive enable | Global enable/disable for TX0–TX15 drivers; overrides per-channel OE bits when asserted LOW with OSB = LOW. |
| RESET | Asynchronous device reset | Active-LOW Schmitt-trigger input clearing internal registers, counters, and forcing TX outputs into high-Z state; requires ≥100 ns pulse width. |
| WFPS | Wide frame pulse select | When HIGH: enables WFP mode (requires FE/HCLK = 4.096 MHz, CLK = 16.384 MHz); when LOW: enables auto-detect ST-BUS®/GCI mode. |
| TMS, TDI, TDO, TCK, TRST | JTAG test port | IEEE-1149.1 boundary-scan interface; TRST asynchronously resets TAP controller; all pins have internal pull-ups except TDO (high-Z when disabled). |
| IC | Internal connection | Must be connected to GND for functional operation and JTAG compliance; not user-accessible signal path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Per-stream frame offset calibration | Compensates for inter-stream skew up to ±4.5 CLK periods using programmable FOR registers - critical for multi-chip TSI systems with unequal PCB trace lengths. |
| Processor Mode operation | Enables microprocessor to write time-slot data directly to connection memory for dynamic channel routing - supports real-time status/control exchange in voice gateways. |
| Automatic ST-BUS®/GCI identification | Detects frame sync polarity and bit-clock alignment on F0i without configuration - reduces firmware initialization overhead in mixed-interface systems. |
| Memory block programming | Loads identical upper 5 bits (BPD0–BPD4) across all 2,048 connection memory locations in two frames - accelerates boot-time configuration of broadcast or multicast mappings. |
| Per-channel loopback (LPBK) | Internally routes TXn,Chm → RXn,Chm for diagnostics - isolates physical layer faults without external loopback cables or switches. |

FAQ
What is the function of the IC pin on the IDT7290820JG8?
The IC pin on the IDT7290820JG8 is an internal connection that must be tied to GND for normal operation. This connection ensures proper biasing of internal circuitry and compliance with IEEE-1149.1 boundary-scan requirements. Leaving IC floating or connecting it to VCC will prevent the IDT7290820JG8 from functioning correctly or passing JTAG tests.
Does the IDT7290820JG8 support both ST-BUS® and GCI interfaces simultaneously?
No - the IDT7290820JG8 automatically detects and configures for either ST-BUS® or GCI format based on the polarity and edge alignment of the F0i frame pulse, but only when WFPS = LOW. It does not operate in dual-format mode; the interface mode is determined per power-on cycle and cannot be switched dynamically during runtime without reinitialization.
How is the master clock (CLK) frequency related to the serial data rate on the IDT7290820JG8?
The CLK frequency must be exactly twice the selected serial data rate: 4.096 MHz for 2.048 Mb/s, 8.192 MHz for 4.096 Mb/s, and 16.384 MHz for 8.192 Mb/s. This 2:1 ratio ensures correct bit sampling timing - rising edge for ST-BUS®, falling edge for GCI - and is enforced by the IDT7290820JG8's internal PLL-free serial interface architecture.
Can the IDT7290820JG8 perform per-channel high-impedance control on TX outputs?
Yes - the IDT7290820JG8 supports per-channel high-impedance control via the OE bit in each connection memory location. When enabled (OE = 1), the corresponding TX output driver enters high-Z state independently of other channels. This capability works alongside global ODE/OSB control and is essential for dynamic channel shutdown in energy-efficient telecom systems.
What is the purpose of the CCO pin on the IDT7290820JG8?
The CCO pin on the IDT7290820JG8 outputs a synchronous serial control stream derived from the CCO bits stored in connection memory. It operates at the same data rate as the main serial streams (4.096/8.192/16.384 Mb/s) and transmits one CCO bit per time-slot, offset by one channel - enabling external logic to monitor or synchronize with internal routing decisions in real time.
