TO O L B R I E F The EASY2256 Evaluation System includes specially optimized modular hardware and software components designed to demonstrate the performance of Infineon's FALC(R)56 (PEF 2256 H) in a real-world telecommunications environment. Each module is controlled by a its own device driver and API including SSM (Synchronization Status Message support). The API and SSM run on Infineon's C165UTAH controller together with the firmware. The EASY 2256 provides system vendors with a highly integrated, software programmable interface reference design for sophisticated E1/T1/J1 framer and Line Interface Unit (LIU) applications based on Infineon's FALC(R)56 transceiver. The EASY2256 Evaluation System is AT&T and ETSI certified. Functionality Meets all relevant E1/T1/J1 standards for pulse template, jitter, receiver return loss, line attenuation for short and long haul applications. Flexible hardware clocking system with a single clock oscillator as the source for the FALC(R)56 reference clock in E1/T1 or J1 mode Features ITU-T K.20/21 approved line interface circuitry (R) The FALC 56 driver code is downloaded to the board via RS-232 or USB connections to communicate with the Microsoft Windows(R) menu-based WinEASY program.

TO O L B R I E F Hardware Description The EASY2256 board includes the FALC(R)56 with an external line front end. The FALC(R)56 is connected to a 16-bit CPU C165UTAH. Two serial interfaces provide download and debug capability. The board can be connected to standard E1/T1/J1 test equipment via an RJ-45 or BNC connection. The AFE represents an optimized generic E1 and T1/J1 platform to meet the pulse shape requirements. The AFE also meets receive and transmit return loss and impedance towards GND specifications without resistor switching for E1-120 , E1-75 and T1-100 cables. Test connectors provide easy access to all system interface, clock and boundary scan signals. Four LEDs are included to indicate the synchronization state, loopback status, loss of signal (red alarm), and remote alarm (yellow alarm). Schematics and layout files are part of the CD-ROM package. Software Description In addition to the WinEASY GUI, the software package includes the Device Driver System (DDS) and API driver modules for the FALC(R)56. The FALC(R)56 API provides state-of- the-art calls and call back functions to configure and maintain the device, and also supports SSM (Synchronization Status Messages). The API is easily ported to various platforms using adaptation layers. The FALC(R)56-API contains all device specific functions for data and status transfer, including signaling, performance, and alarms, as well as for overall device configuration.
