Functional Description
THE LINE INTERFACE
The line interface section performs two to four wire conversion and provides impedance matching between the modem and the phone line.
INTRODUCTION
A modem is a device for transmitting and receiving serial
data over a narrow bandwidth communication channel. The
MM74HC942 uses frequency shift keying (FSK) of an audio
frequency tone. The tone may be transmitted over the
switched telephone network and other voice grade channels. The MM74HC942 is also capable of demodulating
FSK signals. By suitable tone allocation and considerable
signal processing the MM74HC942 is capable of transmitting and receiving data simultaneously.
The tone allocation by the MM74HC942 and other Bell 103
compatible modems is shown in Table I. The terms ‘‘originate’’ and ‘‘answer’’ which define the frequency allocation
come from use with telephones. The modem on the end of
the line which initiates the call is called the originate modem. The other modem is the answer modem.
THE LINE DRIVER
The line driver is a power amplifier for driving the line. If the
modem is operating as an originate modem, the second harmonics of the transmitted tones fall close to the frequencies
of the received tones and degrade the received signal to
noise ratio (SNR). The line driver must thus produce low
second harmonic distortion.
THE HYBRID
The voltage on the telephone line is the sum of the transmitted and received signals. The hybrid subtracts the transmitted voltage from the voltage on the telephone line. If the
telephone line was matched to the hybrid impedance, the
output of the hybrid would be only the received signal. This
rarely happens because telephone line characteristic impedances vary considerably. The hybrid output is thus a
mixture of transmitted and received signals.

Functional Description
The transmit level is programmable by placing a resistor
from TLA to VCC. With a 5.5k resistor the line driver transmits a maximum of b9 dBm. Since most lines from a phone
installation to the exchange provide 3 dB of attenuation the
maximum level reaching the exchange will be b12 dBm.
This is the maximum level permitted by most telephone
companies. Thus with this programming the MM74HC942
will interface to most telephones. This arrangement is called
the ‘‘permissive arrangement.’’ The disadvantage with the
permissive arrangement is that when the loss from a phone
to the exchange exceeds 3 dB, no compensation is made
and SNR may be unnecessarily degraded.
SNR can be maximized by adjusting the transmit level until
the level at the exchange reaches b12 dBm. This must be
done with the cooperation of the telephone company. The
programming resistor used is specific for a given installation
and is often included in the telephone jack at the installation. The modem is thus programmable and can be used
with any jack correctly wired. This arrangement is called the
universal registered jack arrangement and is possible with
the MM74HC942. The values of resistors required to program the MM74HC942 follow the most common code in
use; the universal service order code. The required resistors
are given in Table II.

THE DEMODULATOR SECTION
The Receive Filter
The demodulator recovers the data from the received signals. The signal from the hybrid is a mixture of transmitted
signal, received signals and noise. The first stage of the
receive filter is an anti-alias filter which attenuates high frequency noise before sampling occurs. The signal then goes
to the second stage of the receive filter where the transmitted tones and other noise are filtered from the received signal. This is a switched capacitor nine-pole filter providing at
least 60 dB of transmitted tone rejection. This also provides
high attenuation at 60 Hz, a common noise component.
The Discriminator
The first stage of the discriminator is a hard limiter. The hard
limiter removes from the received signal any amplitude
modulation which may bias the demodulator toward a mark
or a space. It compares the output of the receive filter to the
voltage on the 0.1 mF capacitor on the FTLC pin.
The hard limiter output connects to two parallel bandpass
filters in the discriminator. One filter is tuned to the mark
frequency and the other to the space frequency. The outputs of these filters are rectified, filtered and compared. If
the output of the mark path exceeds the output of the space
path the RXD output goes high. The opposite case sends
RXD low.
The demodulator is implemented using precision switched
capacitor techniques. The highly critical comparators in the
limiter and discriminator are auto-zeroed for low offset.
TABLE II. Universal Service Order Code Resistor Values
Carrier Detector
The output of the discriminator is meaningful only if there is
sufficient carrier being received. This is established in the
carrier detection circuit which measures the signal on the
line. If this exceeds a certain level for a preset period (adjustable by the CDT pin) the CD output goes low indicating
that carrier is present. Then the carrier detect threshold is
lowered by 3 dB. This provides hysteresis ensuring the CD
output remains stable. If carrier is lost CD goes high after
the preset delay and the threshold is increased by 3 dB.
MODULATOR SECTION
The modulator consists of a frequency synthesizer and a
sine wave synthesizer. The frequency produces one of four
tones depending on the O/A and TXD pins. The frequencies
are synthesized to high precision using a crystal oscillator
and variable dual modulus counter. The counters used respond quickly to data changes, introducing negligible bit jitter while maintaining phase coherence.
The sine wave synthesizer uses switched capacitors to
‘‘look up’’ the voltages of the sine wave. This sampled signal is then further processed by switched capacitor and
continuous filters to ensure the high spectral purity required
by FCC regulations.

CARRIER DETECT THRESHOLD ADJUSTMENT
The carrier detect threshold is directly proportional to the
voltage on CDA. This pin is connected internally to a high
impedance source. This source has a nominal Thevenin
equivalent voltage of 1.2V and output impedance of 100 kX.
By forcing the voltage on CDA the carrier detect threshold
may be adjusted. To find the voltage required for a given
threshold the following equation may be used;
VCDA e 244 c VON
VCDA e 345 c VOFF
CARRIER DETECT TIMING ADJUSTMENT
CDT: A capacitor on Pin 4 sets the time interval that the
carrier must be present before CD goes low. It also
sets the time interval that carrier must be removed
before CD returns high. The relevant timing equations
are:
TCDL j 6.4 c CCDT for CD going low
TCDH j 0.54 c CCDT for CD going high
Applications Information
TRANSMIT LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
The transmitted power levels of Table II refer to the power
delivered to a 600X load from the external 600X source
impedance. The voltage on the load is half the TXA voltage.
This should be kept in mind when designing interface circuits which do not match the load and source impedances.
Where TCDL & TCDH are in seconds, and CCDT is in mF.

DESIGN PRECAUTIONS
Power supplies to digital systems may contain high amplitude spikes and other noise. To optimize performance of the
MM74HC942 operating in close proximity to digital systems,
supply and ground noise should be minimized. This involves
attention to power supply design and circuit board layout.
Power supply decoupling close to the device is recommended. Ground loops should be avoided. For further discussion
of these subjects see the Audio/Radio Handbook published
by National Semiconductor Corporation.
