ered a valid pause. This capability, together with the
ability to select the steering time constants externally,
allows the designer to tailor performance to meet a wide
variety of system requirements.
Figure 3 Basic Steering Circuit
Guard Time Adjustment
Where independent selection of receive and pause are
not required, the simple steering circuit of Figure 3 is
applicable. Component values are chosen according to
the formula:
tREC = tDP + tGTP
tGTP @ 0.67 RC
The value of tDP is a parameter of the device and tREC is
the minimum signal duration to be recognized by the
receiver. A value for C of 0.1 µF is recommended for
most applications, leaving R to be selected by the
designer. For example, a suitable value of R for a tREC of
40 ms would be 300 K ohm. A typical circuit using this
steering configuration is shown in Figure 4. The timing
requirements for most telecommunication applications
are satisfied with this circuit. Different steering arrange-
ments may be used to select independently the guard
times for tone-present (tGTP) and tone-absent (tGTA). This
may be necessary to meet system specifications that
place both accept and reject limits on both tone duration
and interdigit pause.
Guard time adjustment also allows the designer to tailor
system parameters such as talkoff and noise immunity.
Increasing tREC improves talkoff performance, since it
reduces the probability that tones simulated by speech
will maintain signal condition long enough to be regis-
tered. On the other hand, a relatively short tREC with a
long tDO would be appropriate for extremely noisy envi-
ronments where fast acquisition time and immunity to
dropouts would be required. Design information for
guard time adjustment is shown in Figure 5.
Input Configuration
The input arrangement of the M-88L70 provides a dif-
ferential input operational amplifier as well as a bias
source (VREF) to bias the inputs at mid-rail. Provision is
made for connection of a feedback resistor to the op-
amp output (GS) for gain adjustment.
In a single-ended configuration, the input pins are con-
nected as shown in Figure 4 with the op-amp connect-
ed for unity gain and VREF biasing the input at 1/2VDD.
Figure 7 shows the differential configuration, which per-
mits gain adjustment with the feedback resistor R5.
