Serial Interface RAM

Each SI has a transmit RAM and a receive RAM, each with four banks of 64 halfword entries that enable
it to control TDM channel routing to all serial devices, including the MCCs. The SIx RAMs are
uninitialized after power-on reset; unwanted results can occur if the user does not program them before
enabling the multiplexed channels.

Each 16-bit SI RAM entry defines the routing of 1–8 bits or bytes at a time. In addition to the routing, up
to four strobe pins (logic OR of four strobes in the transmit RAM and four in receive RAM) can be asserted
according to the programming of the RAMs. The four SIx RAM banks can be configured in many different
ways to support various TDM channels. The user can define the size of each SIx RAM that is related to a
certain TDM channel by programming the starting bank of that TDM. Programming the starting shadow
bank address, described in

Section 15.5.3, “SIx RAM Shadow Address Registers (SIxRSR),

determines

whether this RAM has a shadow for changing SIx RAM entries while the TDM channel is active. This
reduces the number of available SIx RAM entries for that TDM.
