WP3161D4NFEI-400B1 [Microchip]

Microchip's WinPath3-SuperLite (WP3-SL) provides a powerful, yet lower cost WinPath3 solution for access processing in the access infrastructure and CPE (customer premises equipment) market. This new family of devices leverages Microchip's broad portfolio of hardened market-ready protocols and industry preferred I/O interfaces and provides this solution in devices priced less than previous WinPath devices. It has the same processing elements as the WinPath3, but a reduced number (six) running up to 400 MHz. These processing elements support the latest packet based protocols such as Ethernet, PWE3 (for Ethernet TDM, HDLC, ATM), and Packet Network Synchronization (IEEE1588v2, Synchronous Ethernet, adaptive and differential clock recovery). It also supports ML-PPP, IMA, CES, OAM (for Ethernet and ATM), QoS (policing, shaping, per-flow queuing, WRED), plus many other protocols. The WP3-SL incorporates the new WinPath3 hardware accelerators such as a flexible high performance classifier, a hierarchical shaper, an integrated security engine and more. The WP3-SL family broadens the Microchip solution to include a high performance yet lower cost option providing WinPath users a program of minimum design risk and short time to market.
