This document describes the features and characteristics of MTC50150 September 2004 1, including WAN modem feature set, WAN connectivity, Session Control, ATM features, LAN feature set, Configuration and Provisioning, etc.
The MTC50150 is a low‑cost ADSL bridge and LAN router SOC built around an ARM946ES RISC processor. It integrates an ADSL transceiver, a 10/100 Base‑T Ethernet MAC with MII interface, and hardware blocks for ATM and IP processing, enabling both bridged and routed operation for residential gateways.
The document provides a complete hardware description, including package type, power supplies, clock options, and pin assignments, as well as a software architecture overview covering system services, network services, and development tools. An application example shows a reference design using the MTC50150 with an external ADSL front‑end chip and memory components.
