Case Study on VLSI Design
 
Development of an ATM network processor board and software
 
 
The customer
The customer was a leading US based network test equipment manufacturer specializing in the optical networking market.
 
The challenge
The challenge was to design a board targeted for portable test equipment having stringent size and interface constraints and implementation of various ATM standards in FPGA .
 
The solution

Wipro developed an OC-12 rate ATM protocol processor board as well as ATM protocol processor software. The entire system was a portable network test equipment, a fact that placed major restrictions on dimensions of the board. The Wipro designed ATM processor board interfaced to an SDH/SONET board, sending and receiving ATM traffic from it, as well as performing ATM traffic analysis.

Key aspects of the design included
Various ATM standards implementation in FPGA logic such as I432 for HEC, PRBS/User defined traffic generation and detection, PLCP framing, AAL1/5, Cell Delay Variation, ATM header and payload error generation/detection, O.191, Utopia interface, PCI interface .etc.
MPC860 micro processor, Segmentation And Re-assembly Processor
Application software running on VxWorks managing the ATM protocol processor board having ATM traffic with AAL0/1/5 protocols for profiles such as CBR/VBR/UBR/ABR
GUI application for user interaction having interface to the board via Ethernet
 
The benefit
The on-time, on-budget execution of the ATM processor board enabled yet another of Wipro’s customers to realize the true value of outsourcing to a reliable and quality design service provider. The successful implementation of the project, mainly from offshore, once again demonstrated Wipro’s capabilities in professional project management of a complex hardware project.
