Trillium's software supports the complete functionality of Fujitsu's Adaptation Layer Controller (ALC), Network Termination Controller (NTC), and Address Translation Controller (ATC). It also supports all AAL 3/4 and 5 protocols, configurable buffers and buffer descriptors, and multiple physical links. The drivers are delivered in portable C code, with documentation, training, warranty and support, allowing system designers to develop ATM products and systems as cost-efficiently as possible.
"By combining the high-performance of Fujitsu's ATM chips with Trillium's proven drivers, a system developer can dramatically reduce ATM system development time and total cost," said Vincent Sollitto, Fujitsu Microelectronics' vice president and general manager of business operations. "By working closely with Trillium, we can meet one of the basic customer objectives -- providing the optimal ATM design solution with minimal cost and design time."
Trillium's ATM Portable Communication Software also may be licensed by manufacturers in source form. The software, including LES, LEC, UNI Signaling, private network-to-network interface, B-ICI) complies with the ATM Forum specifications and ITU standards, and may be used to develop products more ATM DRIVER SOFTWARE AVAILABLE FOR FUJITSU ATM ICS /2 that need ATM access and networking capabilities. Designed using the Trillium Advanced Portability Architecture (TAPA), the source software can be integrated into a wide range of product architectures.
