Note 1. Single−tone, low−group. Any VDD between 3.4V and 3.6V, odBm = 0.775V, RLOAD = 10K.
Note 2. Any dual−tone. Any VDD between 3.4V and 10.0V.
Note 3. Time from a valid keystroke with no bounce to allow the waveform to go from min to 90% of
the final magnitude of either frequency. Crystal parameters defined as RS = 100Ω, L = 96mH,
C = 0.02pF, and Ch = 5pF, VDD ≥ 3.4V, f = 3.57954Mhz ±0.02%.
Note 4. Only tones will be disabled when TD is taken to logical “0”. Other chip functions may activate.
Pull−up resistor on TD input will meet the same spec as other inputs. Logic 0 = GND.
Note 5. Stand−by condition is defined as no keys activated, TD = Logical 1, Single Tone Inhibit = Logical 0.
Note 6. One key depressed only. Outputs unloaded.
Pin Descriptions:
Row and Column Inputs (Pins 3, 4, 5, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14): With Single Tone Inhibit at VCC, connection
of GND to a single column will cause the generation of that column tone. Connection of GND to more
than one column will result in no tones being generated. The application of GND to only a row pin or
pins has no effect on the circuit. There must always be at least one column connected to GND for row
tones to be generated. If a single row tone is desired, it may be generated by tying any two column
pins and the desired row pin to GND. Dual tones will be generated if a single row pin and a single
column pin are connected to GND.
Any Key Down Output (Pin10): The any key down output is used for electronic control of receiver
and/or transmitter switching and other desired functions. It switches to GND when a keyboard button
is pushed and is open circuited when not. The any key down output switches regardless of the tone
disable and single tone inhibit inputs.
Tone Disable Input (Pin2): The Tone Disable input is used to defeat tone generation when the keyboard is used for other functions besides DTMF signaling. It has a pull−up to VDD and when tied to
GND tones are inhibited. All chip functions operate normally.
Single Tone Inhibit Input (Pin15): The Single Tone Inhibit is used to inhibit the generation of other
than dual tones. It has a pull−down to GND and when floating or tied to GND, any input situation that
would normally result in a single tone will now result in no tone, with all other chip functions operating
normally.
Tone Output (Pin16): The tone output pin is connected internally in the NTE1690 to the emitter of
an NPN transistor whose collector is tied to VDD. The input to this transistor is the on−chip operational
amplifier which mixes the row and column tones together and provides output level regulation.
Functional Description:
Oscillator
The network contains an on−board inverter with sufficient loop gain to provide oscillation when used
with a low cost television color−burst crystal. The inverter’s input is OSC in (Pin7) and the output is
OSC out (Pin5). The circuit is designed to work with a crystal cut to 3.579545Mhz to give the frequencies in Table 1. The oscillator is disabled whenever a keyboard input is not sensed.

Most crystals don’t vary more than 0.02%. Any crystal frequency deviation from 3.5795Mhz will be
reflected in the tone output frequency.
Output Waveform
The row and column output waveforms are digitally synthesized using on−chip D/A converters. Distortion measurement of these unfiltered waveforms will show a typical distortion of 7% or less. The on−
chip operational amplifier of the NTE1690 mixes the row and column tones together to result in a dula−
tone waveform.
Spectral analysis of this waveform will show that typically all harmonic and intermodulation distortion
components will be −30dB down when referenced to the strongest fundamental (column tone).
Output Tone Level
The output tone level of the NTE1690 is proportional to the applied DC supply voltage. Operation will
normally be with a regulated supply. This results in enhanced temperature stability, since the supply
voltage may be made temperature stable.
Keyboard Configuration
Each keyboard input is standard CMOS with a pull−up resistor to VCC. These inputs may be controlled
by a keyboard or electronic means. Open collector TTL or standard CMOS (operated off same as the
NTE1690) may be used for electronic control.
The switch contacts used in the keyboards may be void of precious metals, due to the CMOS network’s ability to recognize resistance up to 1KΩ as a valid key closure.
