PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
analog loopback
A distinctive feature of the TCM29C14A and TCM129C14A is the analog loopback capability. With this feature,
the user can test the line circuit remotely by comparing the signals sent into the receive channel (PCM IN) with
those generated on the transmit channel (PCM OUT). The test is accomplished by sending a control signal that
internally connects the analog input and output ports. When ANLG LOOP is TTL high, the receive output
(PWRO+) is internally connected to ANLG IN +, GSR is internally connected to PWRO –, and ANLG IN – is
internally connected to GSX (see Figure 8).

Figure 9. TCM29C14A and TCM129C14A Analog Loopback Configuration
Due to the difference in the transmit and receive transmission levels, a 0-dBm0 code into PCM IN emerges from
PCM OUT as a 3-dBm0 code, an implicit gain of 3 dB. Because of this, the maximum signal that can be tested
by analog loopback is 0 dBm0.
precision voltage references
Voltage references that determine the gain dynamic range characteristics of the device are generated internally.
No external components are required to provide the voltage references. A difference in subsurface charge
density between two suitably implanted MOS devices is used to derive a temperature- and bias-stable reference
voltage, which is calibrated during the manufacturing process. Separate references are supplied to the transmit
and receive sections, and each is calibrated independently. Each reference value is then further trimmed in the
gain-setting operational amplifiers to a final precision value. Manufacturing tolerances of typically ± 0.04 dB can
be achieved in absolute gain for each half channel, providing the user a significant margin to compensate for
error in other system components.
conversion laws
The TCM29C13A, TCM29C14A, TCM129C13A, and TCM129C14A provide pin-selectable µ-law operation as
specified by CCITT G.711 recommendation. A-law operation is selected when ASEL is connected to V_BB, and
µ-law operation is selected by connecting ASEL to V_CC or GND. Signaling is not allowed during A-law operation.
If µ-law operation is selected, SIGX is a TTL-level input that can be used in the fixed-data-rate timing mode to
modify the LSB of the PCM output is signaling frames.
The TCM29C16A and TCM129C16A are µ-law only; the TCM29C17A and TCM129C17A are A-law only.
