Abstract

A time slot assignment circuit capable of performing channel setting with a high efficiency and with a high degree of freedom of channel setting with respect to a large volume of transmission data and in addition having a small circuit scale and low power consumption, provided a time switch provided with a transmission data memory into which transmission data is sequentially written and performing switching in a time domain with respect to the transmission data, a space switch for performing switching in a space domain with respect to an output thereof, an address control memory which outputs a channel setting address for controlling the two switches, and a channel setting information converting unit for converting a channel setting information from the outside to a channel setting address and an accessing address for the memory.
