CML Semiconductor Products Call Progress Tone Detector FX643 D/643/4 March 1996 1.0 Features Provisional Issue • Worldwide Application • Voice Detected • Single Tone Decoding • Wide Dynamic Signal Range • Dual Tone Decoding • Low Working Voltage • US-Busy Tones Identified • Standard 3.58MHz Clock Input • Special Information Tones Identified • Standard 8-pin DIP and 16-pin SOIC Packages 1.1 Brief Description The FX643 decodes the audible tone signals provided by Telecom Systems Worldwide to indicate Dial, Ringing, Busy, Unobtainable and other stages of a call attempt. Detection of these signals is essential to applications involving machine dialling or automatic call placement. The FX643 provides the key features needed for intelligent full-function Call Progress monitoring. In addition to detecting the full range of standard Call Progress tones, the FX643 adds single and dual tone decoding for better cross-system Call Progress monitoring. The FX643 also directly identifies the "US Busy" tones, and the international Special Information Tones, saving the time needed for "cadence verification" under Busy and Unobtainable conditions. The FX643 will also decode and indicate speech, or other Non-Call Progress signals: this reduces voice-falsing of Call Progress tones and adds Voice-Answer as a "connected" prompt. The FX643 uses new digital signal processing techniques to provide these advantages. It is a low cost, low power product with superior performance. It is available in industry standard 8-pin and 16-pin packages. 1996 Consumer Microcircuits Limited Call Progress Tone Detector FX643 CONTENTS Section Page 1.0 Features......................................................................................................1 1.1 Brief Description ........................................................................................1 1.2 Block Diagram............................................................................................3 1.3 Signal List ..................................................................................................4 1.4 External Components ................................................................................5 1.5 General Description ...................................................................................6 1.5.1 Overall Function Description .........................................................6 1.5.2 Glossary.......................................................................................6 1.5.3 Block Diagram Description............................................................7 1.5.4 Decode Output Truth Table ..........................................................8 1.6 Application Notes ......................................................................................8 1.6.1 General ........................................................................................8 1.7 Performance Specification ........................................................................9 1.7.1 Electrical Performance..................................................................9 1.7.2 Packaging ..................................................................................14 1996 Consumer Microcircuits Limited 2 D/643/4 Call Progress Tone Detector 1.2 FX643 Block Diagram Note: XTALN for 16-pin SOIC (D4) package only.

Many traditional devices use a bandpass filter followed by an energy detector. The filter is usually designed to pass input signals with a frequency between about 300Hz and 700Hz, and the amplitudes of signals in this range are then checked against a level threshold. Any signal of acceptable level in this frequency band is classed as a Call Progress tone, including signals due to speech and noise. False outputs caused by speech are a common feature with these products, and background noise may lead to a stuck "detect" output. The FX643, by contrast, uses a stochastic signal processing technique based on analysis in both the frequency and time domain, with signal amplitude forming a minor part in the decision process. This analysis includes checks on whether the signal has a "profile" which matches international standards for Call Progress tones or Special Information Tones, or a profile more likely to match that of speech, noise or other non-call-progress signals. It checks on whether the signal is a single tone. It also adds checks on whether tones which include frequencies corresponding with the "US Busy" signals have been detected. The following Glossary, and the Decode Truth Table in section 1.5.4, provide a simple explanation of the decoding functions and features offered by the FX643. 1.5.2 Glossary Call Progress Tones: The single and dual frequency tones in the range 350Hz to 620Hz specified widely for call progress signalling. Call Progress Band: The nominal range 340Hz to 650Hz within which the FX643 will detect Call Progress tones. The detection algorithm requires that the tones have the characteristics typical of Call Progress Tones. Call Progress Low Band: The nominal range 340Hz to 490Hz. The FX643 will detect single or dual tones falling entirely within this range as Call Progress Low Band tones. Call Progress High Band: The nominal range 600Hz to 650Hz. Single tones in this range, or dual tones having a material frequency component within this range (e.g. 480 + 620Hz), are detected as Call Progress High Band tones. Special Information Tone: The nominal frequencies 950Hz or 1400Hz or 1800Hz. Non Call Progress Signal: A signal falling within the nominal range (a) 200Hz to 800Hz, but NOT within the Call Progress Band, or (b) within the nominal range 200Hz to 800Hz, but NOT meeting the DETECTION REQUIREMENTS when the signal falls in the Call Progress Band. Subject to the duration and other characteristics of such signals, the FX643 will usually interpret these as a Non Call Progress Signal (e.g. speech or other signal activity). Minimum Input Signal: The minimum signal level for the specified tone decoding performance. The lower level at which absence of an input signal will be registered is not specified. 1996 Consumer Microcircuits Limited 6 D/643/4 Call Progress Tone Detector FX643 No Signal: A signal falling outside the nominal range 120Hz to 900Hz or Special Information Tone or the absence of an input signal. Either will be detected as a No Signal condition. Nominal: Subject to dynamic tolerances within the signal analysis process. Absolute values are not material or adverse to performance. 1.5.3 Block Diagram Description (reference Figure 1) Slicer The input signal to the slicer is amplified by a self-biased inverting amplifier. The dc bias of this input is internally set at ½VDD. Signal Analyser The frequency range, quality and consistency of the input signal is analysed by this functional block. The signal to noise ratio must be 16dB or greater. The signal must be consistent over a period of about 140 ms. These decode criteria are continuously monitored and the assessment is updated every 7 ms, reference Figure 3. The analyser samples the call progress signal at 9.3kHz; so care should be taken to avoid high frequency signals (e.g. 18kHz) aliasing into the call progress band. Control Logic This block categorises the nature of the signal into various decoded output states and controls the two output pins. See the Decode Output Truth Table in section 1.5.4. Clock An external clock source is to be connected to the XTAL/CLOCK input pin. Alternatively, the internal oscillator may be used with an external crystal if the 16-pin SOIC (D4) version of the FX643 is used. 1996 Consumer Microcircuits Limited 7 D/643/4 Call Progress Tone Detector 1.5.4 FX643 Decode Output Truth Table DETECT3 DETECT2 DETECT1 CONDITIONS 0 0 0 No Signal 1 0 0 Special Information Tone: Will detect 950, 1400 and 1800Hz tones 0 0 1 Call Progress Low Band: Will detect 350+440, 400+450 and 440+480Hz tones, for example 1 0 1 Call Progress Low Band: Will detect single 400, 425, 440, and 450Hz tones, for example 0 1 1 Call Progress High Band: Will detect 480+620Hz tones, for example 1 1 1 Call Progress High Band: Will detect single 600 and 620Hz tones, for example 0 1 0 Non Call Progress signal, e.g. Voice Activity 1 1 0 Will detect a single tone lying outside the Call Progress Band and within the Non Call Progress signal range Note that: DETECT1 responds to the whole range of call progress signals from 340Hz to 650Hz DETECT2 responds to higher frequency call progress signals and voice or similar activity DETECT3 responds to and indicates the presence of a single tone 1.6 Application Notes 1.6.1 General On power-up, a logic "0" at the ENABLE input may be used to disable and initialise the device. 1996 Consumer Microcircuits Limited 8 D/643/4 Call Progress Tone Detector 1.7 Performance Specification 1.7.1 Electrical Performance FX643 Absolute Maximum Ratings Exceeding these maximum ratings can result in damage to the device.
