PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Pin Names Type Description
AGND/DGND Ground Analog and digital ground.
A(TIP) Output Output of A(TIP) power amplifier.
BGND Ground Battery (power) ground.
B(RING) Output Output of B(RING) power amplifier.
C2C1 Input Decoder. SLIC control pins. C2 is MSB and C1 is LSB. TTL compatible.
CAS Capacitor Anti-saturation capacitor pin for capacitor to filter reference voltage when operating in
anti-saturation region.
DA Input Ring-Trip negative. Negative input to ring-trip comparator.
DB Input Ring-Trip positive. Positive input to ring-trip comparator.
DET Output Switchhook detector. When enabled, a logic Low indicates that selected condition is
detected. The detect condition is selected by the logic inputs (C2C1 and E0E1). The
output is open-collector with a built-in 15 k pull-up resistor.
E0 Input DET enable. A logic High disables DET. A logic Low enables DET.
E1 Input Ground-key enable. A logic High connects the off-hook/ring-trip detector to DET
, and a
logic Low connects the ground-key/ring-trip detector to DET
.
HPA Capacitor High-pass filter capacitor. A(TIP) side of high-pass filter capacitor.
HPB Capacitor High-pass filter capacitor. B(RING) side of high-pass filter capacitor.
NC No connect. This pin not internally connected.
RD Resistor Detect resistor. Detector threshold set and filter pin.
RDC Resistor DC feed resistor. Connection point for the DC feed current programming network. The
other end of the network connects to the receiver summing node (RSN). VRDC is negative
for normal polarity and positive for reverse polarity.
RINGOUT Output Ring relay driver. Open-collector driver with emitter internally connected to BGND.
RSN Input Receiver summing node. The metallic current (AC and DC) between A(TIP) and B(RING)
is equal to 1000 times the current into this pin. The networks that program receive gain,
two-wire impedance, and feed resistance all connect to this node.

should never be exposed to this temperature. Operation
above 145°C junction temperature may degrade device
reliability. See the SLIC Packaging Considerations for more
information.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent device failure. Functionality
at or above these limits is not implied. Exposure to Absolute
