off hook.

Switch Hook (Output). The output of this pin goes low when the phone goes "Off Hook"
and can be used externally to switch MSE off.
Functional Description
The MH88614 is an ONS SLIC for use with a
programmable / intelligent CODEC or DSP. The SLIC
performs all of the normal interface functions
between the CODEC and the analog telephone set
whilst having such additional features as Earth
Ground Button Detection, message switching and
Ringing switching with zero crossing.
The MH88614 is available as a 30 pin SIL package
to increase board densities.
2 Wire to 4 Wire Conversion
The hybrid performs 2 wire to 4 wire conversion by
taking the 4 wire signal from the programmable
CODEC at VR and converting it to a 2 wire
differential signal at Tip & Ring. The 2 wire signal
applied across Tip & Ring by the phone is converted
to 4 wire signal at Vx which is the output from the
SLIC to the programmable CODEC. Both the VR
input & Vx output are internally a.c. coupled.
Loop Supervision
The Loop Supervision circuit monitors the state of
the phone line and provides three different output
stages.
When the phone goes "Off Hook" the SHK pin goes
low to indicate this state. This pin reverts to a high
state when the phone goes back "On Hook" (see
figure 3).
When the phone is off hook the circuitry can also
detect two other features of the line status namely
Earth Ground Button & Loop Alarm.
A logic low signal on the Earth Ground Button output
indicates that an earth ground path has been applied
to the Tip or Ring lead of the telephone. This function
can be used for recall operations on phone sets with
Earth Ground Buttons.
The Loop Alarm signal low to indicate that the R
Loop
has been exceeded and that the circuit will no longer
support the line.

proportional to the loop length / resistance. LA must
be high for I

Constant Current Control
Whilst working within the R

maximum limit set by

Bat
levels chosen the circuit allows the loop
current to be set to one of the two discrete levels by
the use of the loop current adjust pin. Applying a logic
low to this pin sets the constant current to the lowest
level. By changing the level to a logic high the constant
current is set to the highest level. This feature can be
used with the loop alarm signal when setting up the
line to chose the loop current setting most suitable.
Line Drivers & Battery Feed
The Line Drivers & Battery Feed circuit provide
power to the line and allow bi-directional audio
transmission.
The line impedance present by the line driver
circuitry is a nominal 600 ohms, allowing the circuit
to be used on its own in a PABX application. The
nominal impedance can be modified to look like a
complex impedance such as those used within

Europe by allowing an impedance to be reflected
through the SLIC from the CODEC or DSP module.
The outputs at tip & ring protected from short term
over voltage between tip & gnd, ring to gnd or tip to
ring reducing the requirement for secondary
protection circuitry.
There is also long term protection on the outputs
against short circuits applied across tip & ring, tip to
gnd, ring to gnd and tip & ring to gnd.
Switch circuits
There are three switches built into the functionality of
this circuit, they are Ringing Enable, Message Signal
Enable and Power Denial.
Ringing Enable allows a logic level to be applied to a
pin and the ringing voltage superimposed on a d.c.
level to then be switched onto the line. The ringing
signal applied to the line at zero voltage crossing and
switched off at zero current. (see figure 3). The
ringing signal can be terminated by either returning
the Ringing Enable pin to a logic low level or it will
automatically stop when the phone goes off hook
regardless of the state of the input pin.
The Message Signal Enable pin provides the
switching control of the message voltage. A logic
high on the MSE pin applies the message voltage to
the line. Internal circuitry allows the input signal to
MSE to be cadenced, causing the output signal to be
cadenced, without causing bell tinkle. This is
possible by conditioning the rising and falling edges
of the output signal. Message Signal Enable also has
auto trip facility.

When applying ringing and message signal to the
phone the two signals should be applied separately
to minimise total power consumption. Figure 4
indicates how the timing of this process could best
be achieved for cadenced and uncadenced message
signalling.
Power Denial can be applied at any time to remove
the line from service. The Power Denial input
enables the line to be isolated from the battery under
fault conditions or for maintenance purposes. A logic
low will remove the battery feed whilst a logic high
will provide power to the line.
