Product details
Overview
SAF 82526 N V2.2 from Siemens AG is a single-channel High-Level Serial Communication Controller Extended (HSCX) IC implementing HDLC/LAPB/LAPD/SDLC Layer-2 protocol handling with integrated DPLL clock recovery, 64-byte TX/RX FIFOs, and DMA/interrupt data transfer. It operates at up to 4 Mbit/s, consumes 25 mW active power at 4 MHz, and targets ISDN terminal adapters and X.25 packet-switching equipment.
For engineers reviewing the SAF 82526 N V2.2 datasheet, SAF 82526 N V2.2 pinout, SAF 82526 N V2.2 application, or SAF 82526 N V2.2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its single-HDLC-channel architecture, P-LCC-44 package compatibility with SAB 82525/SAF 82525, 8-bit demultiplexed bus interface, and support for auto/non-auto/transparent operating modes in telecom infrastructure designs.
Technical Context
The SAF 82526 implements one full-duplex HDLC channel with independent command/status registers and dedicated 64-byte transmit/receive FIFOs. Its DPLL enables robust clock recovery from serial data streams, and dual baudrate generators (one per channel in dual variants; one in SAF 82526) support programmable time-slot assignment (1–256 bits) for TDM systems.
It supports three primary operating modes: Auto-mode for LAPB/LAPD/SDLC frame handling (I/S/U frames, modulo-8/128), Non-Auto mode for manual control of HDLC functions, and Transparent modes for raw byte transmission without flag insertion, bit stuffing, or CRC. The 8-bit demultiplexed adaptive bus interface ensures direct compatibility with Intel/Motorola 8/16-bit microcontrollers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| DPLL Clock Recovery | Eliminates need for external clock recovery ICs in ISDN or leased-line modems |
| Transparent Mode Support | Allows raw byte streaming without HDLC framing-essential for proprietary or non-standard protocols |
| Programmable Time-Slot Length | Configurable 1–256 bit slots enable precise alignment with PCM/TDM frame structures (e.g., E1/T1) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar HDLC controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAB 82525 N | Dual-channel HDLC controller; identical pinout and software interface; higher power (active ~35 mW) | Supports two independent HDLC links (A+B); required where dual-BRI or redundant link needed | Select when dual-channel capability justifies added cost and power |
| SAF 82525 N | Pin/software compatible dual-channel variant in same P-LCC-44 package; identical electrical specs | Same dual-link functionality as SAB 82525 but with SAF-series qualification (e.g., extended temp range) | Choose for industrial environments requiring wider operating temperature or enhanced reliability screening |
Compared with SAB 82525 N and SAF 82525 N, SAF 82526 N V2.2 provides identical feature depth and timing performance in a lower-cost, lower-power single-channel configuration-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, single-link telecom endpoints where dual-channel redundancy is unnecessary.

FAQ
Is SAF 82526 N V2.2 pin-compatible with SAB 82525?
Yes, SAF 82526 N V2.2 is pin-compatible with SAB 82525 N in the P-LCC-44 package. However, pins 30 (DACKA), 36 (TxCLKA), and 39 (DRQRA) are No Connect on SAF 82526, reflecting its single-channel (B-only) implementation versus the dual-channel SAB 82525.
What clock sources does the SAF 82526 support for HDLC operation?
The SAF 82526 supports both external clock input (via AxCLKB) and on-chip DPLL-based clock recovery from the RxDB data stream. The DPLL locks to NRZ-encoded signals within ±100 ppm frequency deviation, enabling reliable operation without a separate clock line in many ISDN and leased-line applications.
Does SAF 82526 support both LAPB and LAPD protocols simultaneously?
No. The SAF 82526 supports LAPB (X.25) and LAPD (ISDN D-channel) in Auto-mode, but only one protocol instance per channel. Since it implements only Channel B, it handles either LAPB or LAPD-not both concurrently. Protocol selection is configured via mode register bits during initialization.
Can SAF 82526 operate in transparent mode without HDLC framing?
Yes. In Transparent Mode 0 or 1 (selected by MDS1/MDS0/ADM pins), the SAF 82526 bypasses flag detection, bit stuffing, and CRC generation-transferring raw bytes between RxDB/TxDB and FIFOs. This mode is used for proprietary protocols or when framing is handled externally by FPGA or DSP.
