Switching matrix with asynchronous transfer mode

摘要

This matrix includes: - N queues (Q0, ..., Q15) at each input (E0, ..., E15), each queue corresponding to one of the outputs of the matrix (S0, ..., S15) - a complete interconnection network (RI) making it possible to link the output of any queue to any output of the matrix; - an arbitration circuit (CLA) controlling this complete interconnection network on the basis of the contents of the queues, so as to transmit one cell at most to each output of the matrix, during each cell period. Application to the production of switching systems for telecommunications in the field of local networks or public networks transmitting data.
