Author: Don LaFontaine
Reference Design using the HC55185 and
the AK2306/2306LV Dual PCM CODEC
equal to the desired terminating impedance ZL, minus the
value of the protection resistors (RP). The formula to
calculate the proper RS for matching the 2-wire impedance
is shown in Equation 1.
The purpose of this application note is to provide a reference
design for the HC55185 and AK2306/2306LV Dual PCM
CODEC.
(EQ. 1)
R S = 133.3 • ( Z L – 2RP )
The network requirements of many countries require the
analog subscriber line circuit (SLIC) to terminate the
subscriber line with an impedance for voiceband frequencies
which is complex, rather than resistive (e.g. 600Ω). The
HC55185 accomplishes this impedance matching with a
single network (RS Figure 1) connected between the VTX
pin and the -IN pin.
Equation 1 can be used to match the impedance of the SLIC
and the protection resistors (ZTR) to any known line
impedance (ZL). Figure 1 shows the calculations of RS to
match a resistive and 2 complex loads.
The AK2306/2306LV Dual PCM CODEC includes Selectable
A-law/µ-law function, Internal Gain Adjustment from +6dB to
-18dB by 1dB steps control and a selectable 16Hz/20Hz
Ring Tone Generator.

(EQ. 2)
RS = 66.9kΩ in series with 16.2nF. Note: Some impedance
models, with a series capacitor, will cause the op amp feedback
to behave as an open circuit DC. A resistor with a value of
about 10 times the reactance of the RS capacitor
(2.16µF/133.3 = 16.2nF) at the low frequency of interest
(200Hz for example) can be placed in parallel with the capacitor
in order to solve the problem (491kΩ for a 16.2nF capacitor).
Discussed in this application note are the following:
• 2-wire impedance matching
• Receive gain (4-wire to 2-wire) and transmit gain (2-wire to
4-wire) calculations
• Reference design for both 600Ω and
220Ω +820Ω||115nF Complex Impedance
EXAMPLE 2:
Impedance Matching
Calculate RS to make ZTR = 220 + 820//115nF
RP = 49Ω.
Impedance matching of the HC55185 to the subscriber load
is important for optimization of 2 wire return loss, which in
turn cuts down on echoes in the end to end voice
communication path. Impedance matching of the HC55185 is
accomplished by making the SLIC’s impedance (ZO, Figure 1)

SLIC in the Active Mode
Substitute Equation 10 into Equation 14
Figure 2 shows a simplified AC transmission model of the
HC55185 and the connection of the AK2306 to the SLIC.
Figure 3 shows a simplified AC transmission model of the
HC55185 and the connection of the “Low Voltage”
AK2306LV to the SLIC. The Low Voltage AK2306LV CODEC
requires a different connection to the HC55185 to achieve
the voltage gain required at tip and ring without clipping the
output signal of the CODEC.
The following analysis is performed with the AK2306
CODEC connection. Circuit analysis of the “Low Voltage”
circuit is left for the reader. Circuit analysis of the HC55185
yields the following design equations:
The Sense Amplifier is configured as a 4 input differential
amplifier with a gain of 3/4. The voltage at the output of the
sense amplifier (VSA) is calculated using superposition.
VSA1 is the voltage resulting from V1, VSA2 is the voltage
resulting from V2 and so on (reference Figure 2).

HC55185 Receive Gain (VRX to V2W)
4-wire to 2-wire gain across the HC55185 is equal to the

The receive gain is calculated using Equation 20.
Equation 21 expresses the receive gain (VRX to V2W) in
terms of network impedances. From Equation 13, the value
of RS was set to match the line impedance (ZL) to the
HC55185 plus the protection resistors (Z0 + RP). This results
in a 4-wire to 2-wire gain of -1, as shown in Equation 21.

Receive Gain Across the System
Combining Equations 24 and 25 results in Equation 26.
The receive gain across the system is defined as the gain
from DR to the phone (V2W). With the receive gain through
the HC55185 set to 1, the receive gain across the system is
entirely controlled by programming the AK2306. The
AK2306 can program the receive gain across the system
from +6dB to -18dB in 1 dB increments (reference Figure 4).

The 2-wire to 4-wire gain is equal to VTX/EG with VRX = 0,

A more useful form of the equation is rewritten in terms of

from EG to V2W as shown in Equation 27.

2-wire to 4-wire gain of 0.416 or -7.6dB.
Substituting Equation 23 into Equation 22 and simplifying.

The transmit gain across the system is defined as the gain
from the phone or 2-wire side (V2W) to the PCM highway

the attenuated signal through the HC55185. The system
gain is entirely controlled by programming the AK2306. The
AK2306 can program the transmit gain across the system
from +6dB to -18dB in 1 dB increments (reference Figure 4).

Transhybrid Balance G(4-4)
across the system, with the transmit gain of the AK2306 set
to 0dB, we set R8 equal to 49.9kΩ. as shown in Equation 30.
Transhybrid balance is a measure of how well the input
signal is canceled (that being received by the SLIC) from the
transmit signal (that being transmitted from the SLIC to the
CODEC). Without this function, voice communication would
be difficult because of the echo.

(EQ. 30)
The gain through the AMPT amplifier from VGSR must equal
the gain from VTX to achieve transhybrid balance. RA is
therefore equal to RF, as shown in Equation 31.
The signals at VGSR and VTX (Figure 4) are opposite in

follows:
The voltage equivalent to 0dBm0 into 897Ω (0dBm0(897Ω))
