ROHM BA8201

Communication ICs
Pseudo inductance for telephones
BA8201 / BA8201F
The BA8201 and BA8201F are ICs with a choke coil action, capable of extracting the DC current from a telephone line
while maintaining a high inductance on the telephone line side. This eliminates the need for a choke coil, and facilitates
use of the telephone set line in a variety of applications.
Applications
Household telephones

Application example
Attached components
C1:
This is a capacitor for phase compensation, and is normally connected at 68pF.
C2:
This is a coupling capacitor. The inductance from the
telephone line changes based on this value. Normally, a
value of 2.2µF to 10µF is appropriate.
C3:
This is a capacitor for phase compensation, and is normally connected at 47pF.
C4:
This is the capacitor for balancing the output. It suppresses rippling in the output and also carries out decoupling for the bias voltage supply of the IF pin. It should
be adjusted based on the output current, load, and other
factors.
R1:
Bias is applied from this pin to the IF pin. The inductance
from the telephone line changes based on this value.
Normally, a value of 100kΩ is appropriate.
R2:
This can be connected between Pins 6 and 7 to clamp the
output voltage. The output voltage is expressed using the
equation below.
Vo (V) = 2 22 (µA) R2 (Ω) (reference value)
∗22µA is the reference internal current source for
the IC.
