Brief Description
The CMX631A is a low-power, system-selectable Subscriber Pulse Metering (SPM) detector that indicates
the presence of either 12kHz or 16kHz telephone call-charge frequencies on a telephone line.
Deriving its input directly from the telephone line, input amplitude/sensitivities are component adjustable to
the user's national ‘Must/Must-Not Decode’ specifications via an on-chip input amplifier. The 12kHz and
16kHz frequency limits are accurately defined by the use of an external 3.579545MHz telephone-system
Xtal or clock-pulse input.
The CMX631A demonstrates exceptional 12kHz and 16kHz performance in the presence of both voice and
noise. This device may operate from a single or differential analogue signal input, from which two individual
logic outputs will be produced; a Tone Follower Output and a Packet Mode Output.
This system (12kHz/16kHz) selectable integrated circuit, requires a 2.7V to 5.5V power supply which may be
line-powered, is available in the following packages: 24-pin SSOP (CMX631AD5), 16-pin SOIC
(CMX631AD4), and 16-pin PDIP (CMX631AP3). Additional package styles may be available to meet
specific design requirements.

The output of the input gain adjusting signal amplifier. See
Section 4.3, Sensitivity Setting and 4.4, ‘Will’/’Will Not’

This output provides a logic ‘0’ for the period of a detected
tone and a logic ‘1’ for a NOTONE detection. See 4.1, Tone
Follower Mode and Figure 3.
This output provides a logic ‘0’ for a detected tone and a
logic 1 for NOTONE detection and will ignore a small
fluctuation or fade during the tone signal. See Section 4.2,
Packet Mode and Figure 3.
This logic input selects the device operation to either 12kHz
(logic 1) or 16kHz (logic ‘0’) SPM systems. This input has an
internal 1MΩ pull-up resistor (12kHz).
Positive supply. A single, stable power supply is required.
Critical levels and voltages within the CMX631A are
dependent upon this supply. This pin should be de-coupled
to VSS by a capacitor mounted close to the pin. Note: If this
device is line powered, the resulting power supply must be
stable. See Section 5.1.1 - Protection against High Voltages.
No internal connection; leave open circuit.

The input to the on-chip clock oscillator; for use with a
3.579545MHz Xtal in conjunction with the Xtal output; circuit
components are on-chip. When using a Xtal input, the Clock
Out pin should be connected directly to the Clock In pin. If a
clock pulse input is used at the Clock In pin, this (Xtal/Clock)
pin must be connected directly to VDD . See Figure 2 and
Section 3 - External Components.
The output of the on-chip clock oscillator inverter.
A clock signal derived from the on-chip Xtal oscillator. If the
on-chip oscillator is used, this pin should be connected
directly to the Clock In pin. This output should not be used to
clock other devices
The 3.579545MHz clock pulse input to the internal clock
dividers. If an externally generated clock pulse is used, the
Xtal/Clock input pin should be connected to VDD. See
Section 3 External Components.

Table 2: Recommended External Components
Recommended External Component Notes:
1. When calculating input gain components, for correct operation R1 and R4 should always be ≥ 33kΩ.
2. For best results, a crystal oscillator design should drive the clock inverter input with signal levels of at
least 40% of VDD, peak to peak. Tuning fork crystals generally cannot meet this requirement. To obtain
crystal oscillator design assistance, consult your crystal manufacturer.
3. The on-chip crystal circuitry includes a feedback resistor (nominally 2MΩ) between pins 1 and 2 and
load capacitors on pins 1 and 2 (nominally 10pF each, excluding package and board parasitics).
4. When using an external clock input, X1 should be removed, Pin 1 (Xtal/Clock) should be tied to VDD,
the Clock In and Clock Out jumper should be removed, and the external clock signal applied to Clock In.

Tone Follower Mode
The Tone Follower Output produces a logic ‘0’ when a valid signal is detected. A logic ‘1’ signifies a NOTONE
or bad decode. See Figure 3.
4.2
Packet Mode
The Packet (Cumulative Tone) Mode Output will respond and/or de-respond after a cumulative 40ms of good
tone (or NOTONE) in any 48ms period by providing a Logic level output. See Figure 3.
This process will ignore small fluctuations or fades of a valid frequency input and is available for µProcessor

Sensitivity Setting
The CMX631A input sensitivity can be accurately adjusted and set to support many national 12kHz and 16kHz
SPM specifications.
4.3.1
Input Gain Calculation
The input amplifier, with external circuitry, is used to set the sensitivity of the CMX631A to conform to the user's
national level specification with regard to ‘Must’ and ‘Must-Not’ decode signal levels.
With reference to the graphs in Figure 4 and Figure 5, the following steps will assist in the determination of the
required gain/attenuation.
1. Draw two horizontal lines from the Y-axis [Signal Level (dB)] in Figure 4 and Figure 5. The upper line
represents the required ‘Must’ decode level. The lower line represents the required ‘Must-Not’ decode level
2. Mark the intersection of the upper horizontal line and the upper sloping line; drop a vertical line from this
point to the X-axis [Amplifier Gain (dB)]. The point where the vertical line meets the X-axis indicates the
minimum Input Amp gain required for reliable decoding of valid signals.
3. Mark the intersection of the lower horizontal line and the lower sloping line; drop a vertical line from this
point to the X-axis. The point where the vertical line meets the X-axis will indicate the maximum allowable
Input Amp gain. Input signals at or below the ‘Must-Not’ decode level will not be detected as long as the
amplifier gain is no higher than this level.

Input Gain Components
Refer to the gain components found in Table 2 and Figure 2. The user should calculate and select external
components (R1/R2/C3 and R3/R4/C4) to provide amplifier gain within the limits obtained in 4.3.1 Input Gain
Calculation.
Component tolerances should not move the gain-figure outside these limits. The graphs Figure 4 and Figure 5 are
for the calculation of input gain components for a CMX631A using a VDD of 3.0 (±0.1) or VDD of 5.0 (±0.5).

5.1.1
Protection Against High Voltages
Telephone systems may have high DC and AC voltages present on the line. If the CMX631A is a part of host
equipment that has its own signal input protection circuitry, there will be no need for further protection as long as the
voltage on any pin is limited to within VDD +0.3V and VSS -0.3V.
If the host system does not have input protection, or there are signals present outside the device's specified limits,
the CMX631A will require protection diodes at its signal inputs (+ and -). The breakdown voltage of the capacitors
and the peak inverse voltage of the diodes must be sufficient to withstand the sum of the DC voltages plus all
expected signal peaks.

5.1.2
CMX631A
Aliasing
Due to the sampling nature of switched-capacitor filters used in the CMX631A, high frequency noise or
unwanted signals can alias into the passband, disrupting detection. External components must be chosen
carefully to avoid alias effects.
Possible Alias Frequencies:
12kHz Mode = 52kHz
16kHz Mode = 69kHz
If other filtering in the system has not attenuated these alias frequencies, capacitors should be employed
across resistors R1 and R4 to provide anti-alias filtering.
The low-pass cutoff frequency should be chosen to be approximately 20kHz to 25kHz for a 12kHz system, or
25kHz to 30kHz for a 16kHz system.
i.e.
C =
1
2 x π x f x (R1 or R4)
0
When anti-alias capacitors are used, an allowance must be made for reduced gain at the SPM frequency
(12kHz or 16kHz).
The ‘Clock-Out’ Pin
The Clock-Out pin is intended to drive the CMX631A Clock-In pin only. It is not recommended that it be used to
clock other devices within the host equipment.

maintaining their separate new names (CML Microcircuits (UK) Ltd, CML Microcircuits (USA)
Inc and CML Microcircuits (Singapore) Pte Ltd), now operate under the single title CML Microcircuits.
These companies are all 100% owned operating companies of the CML Microsystems Plc
Group and these changes are purely changes of name and do not change any underlying legal
entities and hence will have no effect on any agreements or contacts currently in force.
CML Microcircuits Product Prefix Codes
Until the latter part of 1996, the differentiator between products manufactured and sold from
MXCOM, Inc. and Consumer Microcircuits Limited were denoted by the prefixes MX and FX
respectively. These products use the same silicon etc. and today still carry the same prefixes.
In the latter part of 1996, both companies adopted the common prefix: CMX.
