Device Description
IDT provides proven, industry-leading network search engines (NSEs) that enable and accelerate the intelligent processing of network services in communications equipment. As a part of the complete IDT classification subsystem that includes content inspection engines, the IDT family of NSEs delivers high-performance, feature-rich, easy-to-use, integrated search accelerators. The IDT 75N43102 is ideally suited for cost-sensitive applications in the enterprise and access markets. It is a full-ternary 32K x 72 entry device where each entry location in the NSE has both a Data entry and an associated Mask entry. The NSE devices integrate content addressable memory (CAM) technology with high-performance logic. The device can perform Lookup operations plus Read and Write maintenance operations. The IDT 75N43102 NSE device has a bi-directional bus that is a multiplexed address and data bus that can support 62.5 million sustained searches per second. This device can be configured to enable multiple width lookups from 72 to 288 bits wide. The IDT 75N43102 requires a 1.5-volt VDD1 supply and a 2.5-volt VDD2 supply. The IDT 75N43102 NSE utilizes the latest high-performance 1.5V CMOS processing technology and is packaged in a JEDEC Standard, 256 pin low profile Ball Grid Array.

System Configurations
The IDT NSEs are designed to fulfill the needs of various types of networking systems. In solutions requiring data searching such as routers, a system configuration as shown in Figure 1.0 may be realized. In this compatible configuration, the NSE interfaces directly to an ASIC/ FPGA for lookups and routes an Index directly back to the ASIC/ FPGA. Control of the associated handshake signals is provided by the NSEs for this configuration.

www.DataSheet4U.com Bus Interface The NSE utilizes a dual bus interface consisting of the NSE Request Bus and the NSE Response Bus. The NSE Request Bus is comprised of the Command Bus and the Request Data Bus. The Command Bus handles the instruction to the NSE while the Request Data Bus is the main data path to the NSE. The 72 bit bi-directional Request Data Bus functions as a multiplexed address and data bus, which performs the writing and reading of NSE entries, as well as presenting lookup data to the device. The NSE Response Bus is comprised of an independent unidirectional Index Bus which drives the result of the lookup (or index) to an ASIC.
Functional Highlights
Data and Mask Array The NSE has Data cell entries and associated Mask cell entries as shown in Fig. 1.1. This combination of Data and Mask cell entries enables the NSE to store 0, 1 or X, making it a full ternary Network Search Engine. During a lookup operation, both arrays are used along with a Global Mask Register to find a match to a requested data word. Figure 1.1

Command Bus The Command Bus loads the specific instructions into the NSE. These include: s Read or Write A Read or Write instruction operates on a specified data entry, mask entry, or register. s Lookup A lookup can be requested in 72-bit, 144-bit or 288-bit widths. A 36bit lookup can be accomplished by using two Global Mask Registers. Registers There are three basic types of registers supported: s Configuration Registers are used at initialization to define the segmentation of the entries. s Global Mask Registers are provided to support Lookup instructions by masking individual bits during a search. s Reply Width Registers are used with Lookup operations.
