Transmit voice channel functions comprise a microphone amplifier, soft limiter, bandpass filter, compressor, hard limiter, lowpass filter and a gain controlled amplifier to set deviation level. Additional transmit circuits include a DTMF generator, data and SAT filters, deviation setting amplifiers for data/ST and SAT and a modulation combiner. ACE9040’s receive path comprises a bandpass filter, expander, volume control and power amplifiers to directly drive an earpiece or handsfree transducer. Gain settings, mute switches and filter characteristics are programmed via a three wire serial interface. To implement a handsfree function, both transmit and receive paths have rectifiers for signal amplitude monitoring via an external pin and signal path attenuators controlled via the serial interface. ACE9040 combines minimum power consumption with low external component count. Standby modes greatly reduce supply current and extend battery charge intervals. Note: Pin 1 is identified by moulded spot and by coding orientation.

Transmit channel functions comprise a microphone amplifier, soft limiter, bandpass speech filter, compressor, pre-emphasis filter, hard limiter, lowpass transmit filter and a gain control stage to set the deviation. Additional transmit circuits include a DTMF generator, a lowpass filter for either control data or signalling tone (ST), filters for supervisory audio tone (SAT), either transponded or locally re-generated, and deviation setting amplifiers for Data, ST and SAT. The outputs from the transmit functions feed a modulation combiner whose gain can be adjusted before driving a modulator and external power amplifier. ACE9040’s receive path consists of a bandpass filter, expander, volume control and power amplifier to directly drive the earpiece, either differentially or in single ended modes. Sidetone and DTMF tones can be introduced into the receive path. Gain settings, filter characteristics and system control is programmed via a three wire serial interface to give optimum operation with either the AMPS or TACS analog cellular systems. To implement a handsfree function, both transmit and receive paths have rectifiers which enable signal amplitude monitoring via an external pin and signal path attenuators controlled via the serial interface. All filter characteristics are set by ratioed on-chip components and by a fixed externally input clock rate of 1·008 MHz and do not need trimming, filter response options are selected via the serial interface. Gain adjustments for different system specifications and component tolerancing are set via the serial interface using gain control blocks in the transmit and receive signal paths. These eliminate the need for any mechanically adjusted potentiometers. Some gain levels change automatically when the control bits for one of the standards are set, others are under user control. Power saving operates when an individual block is deselected and for the whole circuit when in Standby. The circuit combines high performance with minimum power consumption and uses as few external components as possible. Serial Control Bus All functions are controlled via a three wire serial interface. Input is via pins SD for serial data, SCLK for the clock input and LEN for the control message latch signal. Incoming data bits are clocked in on the rising edges of SCLK clock input. At the end of each control message comprising three 8-bit data bytes, the rising edge of the LEN pulse latches in the data. A system controller should clock data out on clock falling edges to ensure the maximum timing margins. The SCLK clock input must be at 1·008 MHz and continuous whenever the ACE9040 is active because ACE9040’s switched capacitor filters use clocks derived from SCLK to set frequency responses. ACE9040 expects a minimum of 30 clock cycles between LEN latch pulses, including the clock cycle containing the latch pulse. A minimum of 8 clock cycles before the beginning of an Operate command or after a Standby command are expected. Three data bytes DATA1, DATA2, and DATA3 contain bits for system selection, control and mute switches, gain control and filter response settings, as shown in figure 10. The last two bits of DATA3, DATA3[1] and [0], determine the message type, either “Operation”, “Initializing mode 0”, “Initializing mode 1” or “Handsfree”. The details of these four modes are described in tables 2 to 19.

In Operate mode all parts of the circuit are active, except for any explicitly powered down and the DTMF generator which only powers up when tones are generated. The pin STBY is pulled high in Operate mode to supply V DD to external audio circuits, such as a compander. Power on Reset At power up ACE9040 is put into Standby mode. ACE9040 is set up by the controlling processor via the serial interface using four control messages: “Operation”, “Initializing mode 0”, “Initializing mode 1” and “Handsfree”. Usually the “Operation” control message would be sent last as it contains the power down/up bit PD. Standby Mode Standby mode is used when the cellular terminal is waiting for a call and is selected by an “Operation mode” control message with bit PD at “1”. In this mode all analog circuits, data paths, filters and their clock drivers are powered down giving a greatly reduced supply current. In standby mode all switch and level controls retain their previous state, the pin STBY is not driven removing the V DD supply from external circuits. To leave Standby mode an operate command should be given by using an “Operation mode” control message with bit PD at “0”. CELLULAR SYSTEM SELECTION Two control bits are used to set the filter responses and gain levels for the AMPS or TACS cellular systems. These bits are TACS in control message “Initializing mode 1” and AMPS in control message “Handsfree mode” and select the system as shown in table 19. Bits AMPS 0 0 1 1 Sleep Mode Sleep mode is the same as Standby but without a clock input. To enter sleep mode the standby command should be given and after a delay of at least 20 µs the SCLK clock stopped. To wake-up from sleep mode, the the SCLK clock must be started and after a delay of at least 100 µs an operate command given.

The microphone amplifier’s input can also be connected to the line input LI via the MLI switch. The microphone amplifier’s output drives the soft limiter via switch MIS which also allows higher level signals from the line input LI to bypass the microphone amplifier to drive the soft limiter directly. These two switches are controlled by the MIS and MIL bits in the “Operation mode” control message. Between the transmit bandpass filter and the compressor two extra functions are included for use with handsfree operation. Firstly an attenuator HFGAIN is provided to give progressive signal reduction in handsfree mode with a range of 0 to - 49 dB in 7 dB steps, set by bits THF[2:0] in the “Handsfree mode” control message. The HFGAIN attenuator’s output drives pin TBPO which is externally capacitively coupled to the compressor input at pin CIN and internally drives both the soft limiter and sidetone circuits. The second function provided for handsfree operation is a signal rectifier whose output, filtered by an external capacitor at pin TXC, drives output pin HF via switch HFS with a d.c. transmit level. Switch HFS is controlled by bit HFS in the “Handsfree mode” control message. Under control of bit HFS both receive and transmit levels are available at HF output pin for external comparison to implement the handsfree function. The handsfree system is further described in the section Handsfree Operation. Soft Limiter Signal amplitude is restricted without clipping to the correct level for maximum F.M. deviation by the soft limiter. This operates as an AGC system, controlled by the signal amplitude at the compressor input and the hard limiter output later in the signal processing path. If the signal is too large at either of these points the soft limiter forward gain is reduced. The nominal soft limiter gain range of 0 to - 30 dB in 64 steps of 0·5 dB covers all normal volume changes occuring during a conversation. Soft limiter attack and decay times are set by internal clocks derived from SCLK and ramp the gain steps at nominal rates of one step down every 40 µs when the signal is too large and one step up every 1·68 ms when the signal is too small. The soft limiter output at pin SLO is externally coupled with a capacitor to the input pin IPS of the following gain adjust stage, INPSENSE. When the speech channel is used to send DTMF signalling tones a switch, controlled by bit DTMFM in the “Operation mode” control message, selects the internal DTMF signal rather than the speech signal at input IPS. For test purposes TEST[1:0] bits in the “Initializing Mode 1” control message can configure switches to give access to the softlimiter comparator inputs. When TEST[1:0] bits are high the 3 & 97 % window comparator is switched from the hard limiter output to PREIN input and the 92 % comparator is switched to IPS input. Inpsense Amplifier and TXBPF Filter Both microphone and transmit voice path tolerances are trimmed in the INPSENSE gain adjustment block following the soft limiter and DTMF switch. INPSENSE has a nominal gain of 8·0 dB with a trim range of - 12·0 to + 12·4 dB relative to the nominal gain set by bits INPS[4:0] in the “Initializing mode” control message. Transmit signal preconditioning is completed by a bandpass filter TXBPF to limit the audio signal to a speech bandwidth of 300 Hz to 3·4 kHz. This filter uses switched capacitor techniques and is preceded by an anti-alias filter and followed by a smoothing filter to remove the clock from its output. The typical frequency response is shown in figure 4 which also shows the mask defined by type approval limits. System TACS AMPS Vmax at CIN Vrms dB 1.0 + 25 1.0 + 23 Vmin at CIN mVrms dB 1.77 - 30 2.25 - 30 Compressor ACE9040 provides a 2:1 compressor to halve the transmit dynamic range as required by analog cellular systems. Within the operating signal range each 2 dB change in input level gives a 1 dB change in output level. A transmit signal is input through pin CIN and output on pin COUT, the signal is referenced to a mid-supply voltage. CRCIN and CRCOUT are connections for the external attack and delay time constant setting components. The compressor’s nominal unity gain level is 707 mV. Above this level the signal at CIN is attenuated and below this level the signal is amplified to achieve the 2:1 dB compression. Table 20 gives the nominal, Vmax and Vmin levels at CIN and nominal levels at COUT corresponding with the TACS and AMPS systems for 0 dB, maximum and minimum deviation. The gain of the INPSENSE amplifier should be set so that the compressor operates within these signal levels for a given input signal at the MIC or LI input. For the usual attack time of 3·0 ms and decay time of 13·5 ms a 180 kΩ resistor is connected between CRCIN and CRCOUT pins and a 100 nF capacitor between CRCIN and GND pins. An 82 nF capacitor should be connected between the VMIDTX and GND pins. Attack and decay time is measured with a 12 dB step, - 8 dB to - 20 dB relative to the unaffected level. Attack and decay times are respectively defined at points on the output envelope where it reaches x 1·5 and x 0·75 of the final steady state level. External compressor connections allow the use of external coupling capacitors to remove d.c. offsets and optionally an external compander. The compressor can be internally bypassed allowing use of ACE9040 without companding in non-cellular applications, or for test purposes. Bits COMP[2:1] in the “Initializing mode 0” control message control the operation of the internal compander and are used to switch both the transmit compressor and receive expander into or out of the signal path. When not in use the internal compressor and expander are both powered down. Nominal Input at CIN (0dB) levels mVrms 56 71 Nominal Output at COUT levels mVrms 200 225 Table 20 - Compressor CIN and COUT signal levels for TACS and AMPS 21 ACE9040 Advance Information Final Modulation Preparation Pre-emphasis “V485”. For the nominal supply voltages of 4.85 V and 3.75 V gain is respectively 16 dB (V485 pin at “1”) and 13.5 dB (V485 pin at “0”). An 8 dB attenuator follows the limiter to prevent any further clipping of the signal in the following transmit lowpass filter. A pre-emphasis filter follows the compressor to boost the amplitude of higher audio frequencies by tilting the frequency response by 6 dB per octave across the whole speech band as shown in figures 5 and 8. To prevent overload in the pre-emphasis filter the signal first passes through an attenuator set to suit the system in use. If an external compander is used or the companding function is bypassed the gain is set to 0 dB. When using the internal compander the gain is set to – 7 dB for TACS or – 11·0 dB for AMPS. Compander bypass is determined by control bits COMP[2:1]. The pre-emphasis filter and attenuator input is pin PREIN and the output is an internal connection to the hard limiter. The preemphasis filter, but not the attenuator, can be bypassed if the PREEMPH bit in the “Operation mode” control message is set to “1”. A TXLPF lowpass filter with an optimised stop band response limits the signal bandwidth to a cut-off frequency of 3·0 kHz, the frequency response is shown in figure 6. The combined frequency response of the pre-emphasis and lowpass filter stages is shown in figure 8. It is possible for test purposes to bypass this lowpass filter by setting bit TEST[0] in the “Initializing mode 1” control message to a “1”. Hard Limiter Speech Deviation Level Setting To ensure compliance with the peak deviation specification for cellular telephone systems, a hard limiter follows the pre-emphasis filter to remove any transient level changes that have passed through the soft limiter. This limiter will handle large signals and has symmetrical clipping levels close to the supply rails VDD & VSS (GND). To ensure clipping at the same hard limiter input signal level with both the nominal power supply voltages, hard limiter gain is adjusted by an external pin A controlled gain stage AUDIODEV sets the output level to give the required FM deviation for speech. The gain is set by bits AUDEV[3:0] in the “Initializing mode 1” control message. AUDIODEV is followed by a transmit audio mute switch enabled by bit TXM in the “Operation mode” control message. A buffer drives output pin TLPO with the transmit speech signal (and DTMF when in use) which is added with DATA/ST and SAT tones in the modulation combiner. TX Lowpass Filter TXLPF Transmit Data and DTMF Paths 16/20kHz DATAF[1:0] DATI -2.8 to + 3.2dB DATD[3:0] DATM LOW-PASS FILTER DATO DATADEV VMID DTMF[3:0] DTMF DTWIST DTMFMODE[2:1] PREEMPHASIS MODE IPS DTMFM TONEM TRANSMIT VOICE PATH RECEIVE VOICE PATH RXI DTMF Figure 12 - Transmit Data and DTMF Paths Transmit Data Data communication from mobile terminals to base stations in the AMPS and TACS cellular phone systems takes place over the Reverse Control Channel (RECC) during call set-up and in short bursts over the Reverse Voice Channel (RVC) during a call. RECC or RVC data is transmitted for AMPS or TACS as a 10 kHz or 8 kHz Manchester Coded FSK signal 22 respectively. The data signal is generated by the ACE9050 “System Controller and Data Modem” or similar digital circuit to drive ACE9040’s DATI input pin. The DATI input data signal is filtered using a 4th order Butterworth lowpass filter with nominal - 3 dB points of 16 kHz for TACS, or 20 kHz for AMPS. This filter is implemented using switched capacitor techniques and is preceded by a continuous time anti-alias Advance Information filter, the output buffer includes a clock rejection filter. The cutoff frequencies are programmed by bits DATAF[1:0] in the “Initializing mode 1” control message. Filtered data passes through the mute switch DATM and a variable gain stage DATADEV with a range of – 2·8 to + 3·2 dB to set the required level of deviation. The mute switch is controlled by bit DATM in the “Operation mode” control message. DATADEV is controlled by bits DATD[3:0] in the “Initialising Mode 1” control message. The data signal is buffered out to pin DATO to drive the modulation combiner. DTMF DTMF tones are generated when commanded via the serial interface and conform to the standard CCITT frequencies. All 16 standard tone pairs or any individual tone can be generated. To select DTMF tones data bits for transmission DTMFEN, DTMFMODE[1:0] and DTMF[3:0] need to be set using an “Operation mode” control message. Data bits DTMFMODE[1:0] select low, high or both tones of the pair as shown in table 6. Bits DTMF[3:0] select the tone pair as shown in table 7. DTMFEN set to “1” enables DTMF ACE9040 operation. To change DTMF tones, an “Operation mode” control message with DTMFEN set to “0” must be sent to cancel the previous selection as the DTMF tone can only be changed when DTMFEN=0. This prevents any spurious tones being generated. An optional pre-emphasis of 2 dB of the high frequency tone group above the level of the low frequency group is enabled by bit DTWIST in the “Initializing mode 0” control message. DTMF tones can be selected to replace the speech in either or both the transmit and receive paths. In the transmit path setting bit DTMFM to “1” as in the “Operation mode” control message will connect the DTMF signal to INPSENSE gain adjustment block’s input in place of the speech signal. In the receive path setting bit TONEM to “1” in the “Operation mode” control message will connect the DTMF signal to the input to RXSENSE gain adjustment block in place of the speech input at pin RXI. In each case the DTMFEN bit must also be “1”. DTMF signals are generated as sinewaves by an internal digital to analog converter and are smoothed by the transmit and receive filters. DTMF waveforms start and stop at a zero crossing to avoid transients in the filters and to limit their bandwidth. The DTMF signal is brought out directly on pin DTMF without further buffering. The DTMF generator is powered down whenever a tone is not being generated, by setting DTMFMODE[1:0] to “00”. Transmit & Receive SAT Paths RSO 10dB RSI RXSAT 6kHz FILTER SCHMITT -4.5 to +4.8dB SATD[4:0] SATS SATM TSO -12dB TSI -15dB TXSAT 6kHz FILTER SATDEV VMID Figure 13 - Transmit and Receive SAT Paths. Re-transmitted SAT ACE9040 provides two alternative paths for Supervisory Audio Tones (SAT). The first of these re-transmits the received SAT tone to the base station after narrow band filtering and providing signal level adjustment. This path is selected by setting SATS bit to “0” in the “Initializing mode 1” control message. The baseband signal from the receiver FM discriminator drives the ACE9040 through the RSI pin into the RXSAT 6 kHz bandpass filter required for AMPS or TACS. The recovered SAT signal then passes through a 10 dB amplifier and the SATS selector switch to the deviation setting amplifier SATDEV. This is controlled by bits SATD[4:0] in the “Initializing mode 0” control message. SAT then passes through the SATM mute switch, controlled by bit SATM in the “Operation mode” control message, to output pin TSO for input to the modulation combiner. Regenerated SAT The alternative SAT path externally measures the SAT frequency and generates a local tone to match. This route is 23 ACE9040 Advance Information selected by setting the SATS bit to “1” in the “Initializing mode 1” control message. The ACE9040 connects the receive filter RXSAT output through a Schmitt trigger to drive pin RSO with a logic level version of the received SAT. A system controller, such as an ACE9050, detects the frequency and generates a digital signal to drive back into the ACE9040 on pin TSI. After the signal level is reduced by -12 dB a 6 kHz bandpass filter TXSAT converts this square-wave into a sinewave. This is followed by a - 15 dB attenuator to reduce the near logic level signal to a normal modulation level. This signal drives the same SATDEV deviation setting stage and mute switch SATM as the returned signal to give an output at TSO. Base Station Originated SAT ACE9050, System Controller, can be used to generate a squarewave SAT at 6 kHz which is input to pin TSI and filtered by the TXSAT filter and output at TSO. The RXSAT filter path with its output at RSO, can be used to filter the received SAT from a mobile for verification by an external frequency detector that the mobile is transponding the correct tone. This is the same as the regeneration loop above but starting with generation. Transmit Signal Combiner TLPO TSO DATO AUDIO AUDIODEV SAT SATDEV DATA DATADEV SUMO 30dB SUMI -2.8 to +3.2dB TXSEN[3:0] - MOD + VMID TXSENSE Figure 14 - Transmit Signal Combining Network and Modulation Driver Used to modulate the transmitted r.f. output, the speech and optional DTMF signals at TLPO, SAT at TSO, and data and ST at DATO, are combined using an internal op-amp. This op-amp has an inverting input at pin SUMI and output at pin SUMO, the non-inverting input is internally biased to VMID. With an external feedback resistor between SUMI and SUMO, external resistors sum the inputs into pin SUMI and are chosen for each different cellular system to select the relative and absolute gains to give the correct deviation for each component of the modulation. Individual fine adjustments to take out 24 component value tolerances can be made by setting: AUDIODEV, SATDEV and DATADEV gains, described in more detail in the sections TRANSMIT VOICE PATH, TRANSMIT AND RECEIVE SAT PATHS, and TRANSMIT DATA AND DTMF PATHS. A fine adjustment is made to the combined signal level by TXSENSE which drives the modulator through pin MOD. The gain of TXSENSE is set by bits TXSEN[3:0] in the “Initializing mode 1” control message over the range – 2·8 to + 3·2 dB.

With TONEM switch set to RXI the input signal is amplified in the block RXSENSE with a gain of + 8 dB. RXSENSE also provides fine adjustment over a range of - 6·0 dB to + 6·4 dB to take up signal level tolerances in the receiver output. Fine gain adjustment is controlled by RXSEN[4:0] bits in the “Initializing mode 0” control message. When the DTMF generator in the transmit section is in use its output can be switched into the receive path to replace the RXI signal by setting bit TONEM in the “Operation mode” control message to “1”. This does not affect the transmitted signal but allows the user to hear DTMF tones to confirm key press operation. ACE9040’s companion device “ACE9030: Radio Interface and Twin Synthesiser” are bandlimited by its output filter and ACE9040’s internal DTMF tones are generated as sinewaves without the need for a further anti-aliasing filiter. RXBPF filter output passes through the receive mute switch controlled by bit RXM in the “Operation mode” control message and is buffered to drive pin RBPO by amplifier EXPGAIN. During mute the RBPO pin is driven to the signal ground voltage at mid supply (as found on pin BIAS). EXPGAIN gain is nominally 12.3 dB when using the internal expander and 0 dB when using an external expander. The output circuit driving RBPO includes a smoothing filter to remove clock noise. Expander RX Bandpass Filter The RXSENSE amplifier’s output is bandpass filtered to the speech bandwidth of 300 to 3400 Hz by receive bandpass filter RXBPF, as shown in figure 7. RXBPF uses switched capacitor filter techniques but does not include an anti-alias input filter as signals at RXI from the external receiver’s output and the internal DTMF generator’s output are already bandlimited. The F.M. discriminator output signals from Input to the expander at pin EIN is coupled by an external capacitor from RBPO to remove any d.c. voltage offsets. Using external coupling also allows the option of using an external compander or bypassing the expander if a linear system is required. In either case the signal should feed back into ACE9040 at pin HFGIN. ACE9040’s compander can be bypassed by setting bits COMP[2:1] in the “Initializing mode 0” control message to “00”. A ring tone from the BAR (Beep, Alarm, Ring) generator of ACE9050 “System Controller” can be added to the 25 ACE9040 Advance Information expander input EIN by using an external summing network and internally open circuiting the drive to pin RBPO during the tone (not just muting the speech). This is achieved with bits COMP[2:1] in the “Initializing mode 0” control message set to “01”. Signal dynamic range at input pin EIN is doubled in the 1:2 expander to restore the original signal. Within the operating signal range each 1 dB change in input level gives a 2 dB change in output level. The expander output drives pin EOUT which is coupled by an external capacitor to the input pin HFGIN. The external connection allows use of an external compander and removes any d.c. voltage offsets. Bits COMP[2:1] in the “Initializing mode 0” control message can be used to select external companding mode and power down the internal compressor and expander. The expander’s unity gain level EIN to EOUT is 1V. Above this level gain is applied to the signal at EIN and below this level the signal is attenuated to achieve 1:2 dB expansion. Table 21 gives nominal, Vmax and Vmin levels at EIN and nominal levels at EOUT corresponding with the TACS and AMPS systems for 0 dB, maximum and minimum deviation. The gain of the RXSENSE amplifier should be set so that the expander operates within these signal levels for a given demodulated signal range at the RXI input. Expander pins ERCIN and ERCOUT are used to set the attack and decay times for the expansion process. For the usual attack time of 3.0 ms and decay time of 13.5 ms, a resistor of 180 k Ω is connected between ERCIN and ERCOUT pins and a capacitor of 100 nF from ERCIN to GND. An 82 nF capacitor should be connected between VMIDRX and GND. Attack and decay time is measured with a 6 dB step, - 4 dB to - 10 dB relative to the unaffected level. Attack and decay times are defined respectively at points on the output envelope where it reaches x 0.57 and x 1.5 of the final steady state level. Volume Control and Handsfree Attenuator Two variable gain stages follow the expander, RXLEVEL for the volume control and HFATTEN for use with handsfree mode. Both blocks provide attenuation, expressed as gain to assist system level design, RXLEVEL from 0 to - 21 dB and HFATTEN from 0 to - 49 dB. RXLEVEL is controlled by bits RXV[2:0] in the “Operation mode” control message and HFATTEN is controlled by bits RHF[2:0] in the “Handsfree mode” control message. 2·8 to + 3·2 dB. A sidetone signal from the output of the handsfree attenuator HFGAIN at pin TBPO is added at EARSENSE's input if bit SD in the “Initializing mode 0” control message is set to “1”. The output of this block is at pin EAMPI. The signal at pin EAMPI is amplified by an opamp whose gain is set by external resistors, allowing overall gain setting for different models of cellular terminal. A resistor is connected from EAMPI to the amplifier input pin EAMPFB and a feedback resistor is connected from the amplifier output EAMPO to EAMPFB. The ratio of these two resistors sets the gain and the opamp’s output including feedback resistors should not be loaded with less than 15 kΩ. Additional filtering can also be added to the receive path using the EAMP opamp. Earpiece The earpiece drivers have outputs at pins EPOP and EPON. One of three modes of output drive or a muted output condition is selected by bits EPH1 and EPH0, see table 5. A dynamic earpiece, typically of 150 Ω resistance in series with 800 µH, can be driven when connected between pin EPON and EPOP. The drive mode can be either differential (EPH1 = 1, EPH0 = 1) or single ended (EPH1 = 1, EPH0 = 0). The differential output, drives a minimum of 4 Vpp into the load. The single ended output appears at EPON and drives a minimum of 2 Vpp into a load referenced to pin EPOP, which provides an output voltage at mid-supply. Output drive is setup for an external handsfree earpiece with EPH1 = 0 and EPH0 = 1. This load, typically of 64 Ω resistance in series with 3.3 µF, is driven from pin EPON to ground and the EPOP output is put into a high impedance state. The minimum drive into this load is 1.1 Vpp. The input for the EPOP and EPON output drivers is driven by the signal at the EAMPO pin for single ended and differential outputs or from EAMPI directly for a handsfree earpiece, bypassing the EAMP opamp. The gain from the earpiece drivers’ common input, to both EPON's inverting and and EPOP's non-inverting outputs, is nominally + 6 dB. Line Output Line output amplifier LODRIVE with its output at pin LO has a gain of + 5 dB and is used to drive an external audio power amplifier. LODRIVE can drive a 1 kΩ load with a minimum of 1 Vrms. The LO output can be put into a high impedance state by setting bit HIZ in the “Operation mode” control message to “0”. During power down EPON and EPOP and LO are tied to mid-supply voltage. RX Audio Output: Line Output and Earpiece Following the handfree attenuator the signal path splits into two parallel paths: a line output for loudspeaking phones and drivers for a dynamic earpiece or external handsfree earpiece. Bits EPH1 and EPH0 in the “Operation Mode” and “Initializing Mode 0” control messages respectively control the operation of these outputs, see table 5. The earpiece output path begins with a variable gain stage EARSENSE which is controlled by bits EARS[3:0] in the “Initializing mode 1” control message to give a gain range of - System TACS AMPS Vmax at EIN Vrms dB 1.0 + 12.5 1.0 + 12.3 Vmin at EIN mVrms dB 43 - 15 22 -21 Handsfree Operation In a handsfree telephone the simplest method of preventing ‘howl round’ caused by acoustic feedback is to attenuate either the forward or return path until the loop gain is too low for sustained oscillation. The least active path is attenuated so the signal level in each path must be detected and compared so that the quieter can be attenuated. In the ACE9040 the signal level in both the transmit and the receive paths are rectified, with smoothing capacitors at Nominal Input at EIN (0dB) levels mVrms 245 245 Nominal Output at EOUT levels mVrms 60 60 Table 21 - Expander EIN and EOUT signal levels for TACS and AMPS 26 Advance Information pins TXC and RXC respectively, to give d.c. voltages corresponding to the signal levels. A switch HFS with its output at pin HF can be internally toggled between TXC and RXC to allow measurement of the two levels at these pins by an external level sensing circuit such as an analog to digital converter input of ACE9030. The HFS switch is controlled by bit HFS in the “Handsfree mode” control message. The system controller after comparison of the voltage levels at TXC and RXC pins can attenuate the weaker signal path by up to 49 dB, in 7 dB steps using blocks HFGAIN for transmit and HFATTEN for receive. Bits THF[2:0] and RHF[2:0] in the “Handsfree mode” control message are used to set the gains of HFGAIN and HFATTEN respectively. The rate of change of gain should be limited in the system controller to allow normal conversation. Attack and decay time constants are set by the resistance and capacitance on the TXC and RXC pins. With the internal resistor to ground of approximately 500 kΩ and an external capacitor to ground of 68 nF the normal attack time of 1 ms and decay time of 35 ms is achieved. By adding a parallel resistor the ratio of attack to decay time can be altered. To save power in a hand portable when handsfree operation is not needed, the transmit and receive signal rectifiers can be switched off by setting bit HFP in the “Handsfree mode” control message to “0”. BIAS RREF 100kΩ/ 68kΩ* MICBIAS BGAP Reference currents for all the internal op-amps are set by an external resistor connected from pin RREF to ground (V SS). Nominal values are 100 kΩ for VDD = 4·85 V and 68 kΩ for VDD = 3·75 V. A stable discrete resistor should be used to ensure consistent operation over a wide temperature range. Power Supply Comparator - Reset Output A power supply comparator is provided to give a reset at power-on and enable the system controller to initiate a clean shut-down sequence if the battery voltage falls too low. When VDD is below a band-gap derived threshold the open-drain outut pin LVN drives to a logic low. This occurs for V DD exceeding 1 V but less than a typical threshold of 3·35 V. An external resistor at LVN provides a pull-up to VDD with a capacitor to ground (V SS) to give a power-on reset delay. Typical values for RC are 220 kΩ and 150 nF. This RC combination also removes short transients or noise pulses from the signal at LVN during power up. If this comparator is not required the bandgap and comparator can be powered down by setting bit PDLVC in the “Initializing mode 0” control message to a “1”. Serial Data Clock Amplifier 2 6 5 64 44 BIAS GENERATOR 3.3µF OP-AMP Reference Current All switched capacitor filter switching clocks are derived from the serial data clock SCLK which must be fixed at 1·008 MHz to ensure correct frequency responses. Biases and References DEC ACE9040 VMIDRX An uncommitted op-amp is provided with its non-inverting input internally connected to VMID, inverting input at pin AMPI and output at pin AMPO. VMIDTX 10nF *VDD = 3.75V Figure 16 - Bias Circuits BIAS, VMID and MICBIAS Within ACE9040 most signals are single ended and swing either side of a mid-supply reference voltage. These internal references are all labelled VMIDxx in this data sheet. A low impedance voltage source at mid-supply for use as an external signal ground is available on pin BIAS. This is a buffered copy of the voltage at pin DEC which is from an internal high impedance potential divider between V DD and VSS. The DEC pin should be decoupled to ground with a capacitor of greater than 3.3 µF. Two additional buffers provide copies of DEC’s voltage at pins VMIDTX and VMIDRX, these are used as internal signal grounds for the transmit and receive paths respectively. VMIDTX and VMIDRX pins should be decoupled to GND with 82 nF capacitors. By using separate mid-supply signal grounds crosstalk due to the compander time constant circuits and the speech and tone signals are kept to a minimum. Pin MICBIAS gives the bias needed for an electret microphone nominally 0·8 times VDD, e.g. when V DD is 3·75 V MICBIAS = 3 V 27 ACE9040 Advance Information Applications Information To help with system set up tables 22 to 25 show ACE9040's functions and their respective controlling bits. Table 23 shows the gains and filter characteristics predetermined when setting the TACS & AMPS cellular system selection bits.
