Figure 29-5. Address Compression Mechanism

Figure 29-5 shows VP_MASK selecting Þve VPI bits to index the VP-level table. The VP-
level table entry contains the 16-bit mask (VC_MASK) and the VC-level table offset
(VCOFFSET) for the next level of address mapping. The VC_MASK selects VCI bits 4Ð
10, which is used with VCT_BASE and VCOFFSET to indicate the received cellÕs channel
code.

Field Description

PHY
Addr

In multiple PHY mode, this Þeld contains the 4 least-signiÞcant bits of the current channelÕs physical
address. Because this comparison Þeld is limited to 4 bits, two sets of look-up tables are needed if using
more than 16 PHYs.The msb of the PHY address lines (bit 4) selects between the two sets of tables. If the
msb is zero, the CP accesses the tables at VPT_BASE and VCT_BASE; if the msb is set, the CP uses
VPT1_BASE and VCT1_BASE. See Section 15.4.1, ÒCMX UTOPIA Address Register (CMXUAR).Ó
In single PHY mode, clear this Þeld.
