[asterisk-dev] using Hardware TDM switch

Thanks. I see how it works. I am hoping having a HW TDM switch makes things
a lot more deterministic and hopefully I can get rid of a lot of code.


One of the things I am playing around is for a secondary microcontroller to
control the POTS line cards (FXO and FXS) and connecting to the
main processor via a DP-RAM. The idea is that the signalling info
is filled in by the uC and the main processor just gets an interrupt to indicate
signalling data is available in the DP-RAM. It is an overkill (but I am curious to see if my setup can hadle FXS port in the 400-800 range) but as I said I am just
playing around and fortunately have acccess to a HW prototyping setup !
