An ATM switching device and method for providing voice call service. In the ATM switching device, input time switch modules are connected to an input PSTN interface to switch channel data received over sub-highways to voice stream data grouped in accordance with destinations by sorting the received channel data according to time slots corresponding to numbers of destination time switch modules. Input cell assembly and disassembly modules are connected to the input time switch modules to assemble a group of voice data headed for the same destination into an identical ATM cell. An ATM switch is connected to the input cell assembly and disassembly modules and to an ATM interface to self-route the ATM cell, to switch the ATM cell, and to output the switched ATM cell to a corresponding destination. Destination cell assembly and disassembly modules disassemble the ATM cell received from the ATM switch into voice stream data. Output time switch modules are connected between the destination cell assembly and disassembly modules and a destination PSTN interface to interchange time slots of the disassembled voice stream data according to destinations, and to output each of the time-slot interchanged voice stream data to a corresponding PSTN destination interface.
