description
The TCM320AC54 is comprised of a single-chip PCM codec (pulse-code-modulated encoder and decoder) and
PCM line filter. This device provides all the functions required to interface a full-duplex (2-wire) voice telephone
circuit with a TDM (time-division-multiplexed) system. Primary applications include:
•
•
•
•
Line interface for digital transmission and switching of T1 carrier,
PABX, and central office telephone systems
Subscriber line concentrators
Digital-encryption systems
Digital signal processing
The device is designed to perform the transmit encoding (A/D conversion) and receive decoding (D/A
conversion) as well as the transmit and receive filtering functions in a PCM system. It is intended to be used
at the analog termination of a PCM line or trunk. The device requires two transmit and receive master clocks
that may be asynchronous (1.536 MHz, 1.544 MHz, or 2.048 MHz), transmit and receive data clocks that are
synchronous with the master clock (but can vary from 64 kHz to 2.048 MHz), and transmit and receive
frame-sync pulses. The TCM320AC54 provides the band-pass filtering of the analog signals prior to encoding
and after decoding of voice and call progress tones.
The TCM320AC54 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.
These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the CMOS gates.

NAME
DESCRIPTION
NO.
ANLG GND
2
Analog ground. All signals are referenced to ANLG GND.
BCLKR/CLKSEL
7
Receive bit (data) clock /clock select terminal for master clock. BCLKR/CLKSEL shifts data into DR after the FSR
leading edge and can vary from 64 kHz to 2.048 MHz. Alternately, BCLKR/CLKSEL can be a logic input that selects
either 1.536 MHz/1.544 MHz or 2.048 MHz for the master clock in the synchronous mode. BCLKX is used for both
transmit and receive directions (see Table 1).
10
Transmit bit (data) clock. BCLKX shifts out the PCM data on DX and can vary from 64 kHz to 2.048 MHz, but must
be synchronous with MCLKX.
BCLKX
DR
6
DX
11
Receive data input. PCM data is shifted into DR following the FSR leading edge.
The 3-state PCM data output that is enabled by FSX
FSR
5
Frame sync clock input for receive channel. FSR is an 8-kHz pulse train that enables BCLKR to shift PCM data in DR
(see Figures 1 and 2 for timing details).
FSX
12
Frame sync clock input for transmit channel. FSX is an 8-kHz pulse train that enables BCLKX to shift out the PCM
data on DX (see Figures 1 and 2 for timing details).
GSX
14
Analog output of the transmit input amplifier. GSX is used to externally set gain.
MCLKR/PDN
8
Receive master clock (must be 1.536 MHz, 1.544 MHz, or 2.048 MHz). MCLKR/PDN may be synchronous with
MCLKX but should be synchronous with MCLKX for best performance. When the input is continuously low, MCLKX
is selected for all internal timing. When the input is continuously high, the device is powered down.
MCLKX
9
Transmit master clock (must be 1.536 MHz, 1.544 MHz, or 2.048 MHz). MCLKX may be asynchronous with MCLKR.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
system reliability and design considerations
TCM320AC54 system reliability and design considerations are described in the following paragraphs.
Latch-up is possible in all CMOS devices. It is caused by the firing of a parasitic SCR that is present due to the
inherent nature of CMOS. When a latch-up occurs, the device draws excessive amounts of current and will
continue to draw heavy current until power is removed. Latch-up can result in permanent damage to the device
if supply current to the device is not limited.
Even though the TCM320AC54 is heavily protected against latch-up, it is still possible to cause latch-up under
certain conditions in which excess current is forced into or out of one or more terminals. Latch-up can occur when
the positive supply voltage drops momentarily below ground, when the negative supply voltage rises
momentarily above ground, or possibly if a signal is applied to a terminal after power has been applied but before
the ground is connected. This can happen if the device is hot-inserted into a card with the power applied, or if
the device is mounted on a card that has an edge connector and the card is hot-inserted into a system with the
power on.
To help ensure that latch-up does not occur, it is considered good design practice to connect a reverse-biased
Schottky diode (with a forward voltage drop of less than or equal to 0.4 V – 1N5711 or equivalent) between the
power supply and GND (see Figure 3). If it is possible that a TCM320AC54-equipped card that has an edge
connector could be hot-inserted into a powered-up system, it is also important to ensure that the ground edge
connector traces are longer than the power and signal traces so that the card ground is always the first to make
contact.
device power-up sequence
Latch-up can also occur if a signal source is connected without the device being properly grounded. A signal
applied to one terminal could then find a ground through another signal terminal on the device. To ensure proper
operation of the device and as a safeguard against this sort of latch-up, it is recommended that the following
power-up sequence always be used:
1. Ensure that no signals are applied to the device before the power-up sequence is complete.
2. Connect GND.
3. Apply VBB (most negative voltage).
4. Apply VCC (most positive voltage).
5. Force a power down condition in the device.
6. Connect clocks.
7. Release the power down condition.
8. Apply FS synchronization pulses.
9. Apply the signal inputs.
When powering down the device, this procedure should be followed in the reverse order.

internal sequencing
Power-on reset circuitry initializes the TCM320AC54 when power is first applied, placing it into the power-down
mode. DX and VFRO outputs go into high-impedance states and all nonessential circuitry is disabled. A low level
or clock applied to MCLKR/PDN powers up the device and activates all circuits. DX, a 3-state PCM data output,
remains in the high-impedance state until the arrival of the second FSX pulse.
synchronous operation
For synchronous operation, a clock is applied to MCLKX. MCLKR/PDN is used as a power-down control. A low
level on MCLKR/PDN powers up the device and a high level powers it down. In either case, MCLKX is selected
as the master clock for both receive and transmit direction. BCLKX must also have a bit clock applied to it. The
selection of the proper internal divider for a master-clock frequency of 1.536 MHz, 1.544 MHz, or 2.048 MHz
can be done via BCLKR/CLKSEL. The device automatically compensates for the 193rd clock pulse of each
frame.
A fixed level on BCLKR/CLKSEL selects BCLKX as the bit clock for both the transmit and receive directions.
Table 1 indicates the frequencies of operation that can be selected depending on the state of BCLKR/CLKSEL.
In the synchronous mode, BCLKX can be in the range from 64 kHz to 2.048 MHz but must be synchronous with
MCLKX.

The encoding cycle begins with each FSX pulse, and the PCM data from the previous cycle is shifted out of the
enabled DX output on the rising edge of BCLKX. After eight bit-clock periods, the 3-state DX output is returned
to the high-impedance state. With an FSR pulse, PCM data is latched via DR on the falling edge of BCLKX (or
BCLKR, if running). FSX and FSR must be synchronous with MCLKX and MCLKR.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
asynchronous operation
For asynchronous operation, separate transmit and receive clocks can be applied. MCLKX and MCLKR must
be 1.536 MHz or 1.544 MHz and need not be synchronous. For best performance, however, MCLKR should
be synchronous with MCLKX. This is easily achieved by applying only static logic levels to MCLKR/PDN. This
connects MCLKX to all internal MCLKR functions. For 1.544-MHz operation, the device compensates for the
193rd clock pulse of each frame. Each encoding cycle is started with FSX and FSX must be synchronous with
MCLKX and BCLKX. Each decoding cycle is started with FSR and FSR must be synchronous with BCLKR. The
logic levels shown in Table 1 are not valid in the asynchronous mode. BCLKX and BCLKR can operate from
64 kHz to 2.048 MHz.
short-frame sync operation
The device can operate with either a short- or a long-frame sync pulse. On power up, the device automatically
goes into the short-frame mode where both FSX and FSR must be one bit-clock period long with timing
relationships specified in Figure 1. With FSX high during a falling edge of BCLKX, the next rising edge of BCLKX
enables the 3-state output buffer, DX, which outputs the sign bit. The remaining seven bits are clocked out on
the following seven rising edges and the next falling edge disables DX. With FSR high during a falling edge of
BCLKR (BCLKX in synchronous mode), the next falling edge of BCLKR latches in the sign bit. The following
seven falling edges latch in the seven remaining bits. The short-frame sync pulse can be utilized in either the
synchronous or asynchronous mode.
long-frame sync operation
Both FSX and FSR must be three or more bit-clock periods long to use the long-frame sync mode with timing
relationships as shown in Figure 2. Using the transmit frame sync (FSX), the device detects whether a shortor long-frame sync pulse is being used. For 64-kHz operation, the frame-sync pulse must be kept low for a
minimum of 160 ns. The rising edge of FSX or BCLKX, whichever occurs later, enables the DX 3-state output
buffer. The first bit clocked out is the sign bit. The next seven rising edges of BCLKX edges clock out the
remaining seven bits. The falling edge of BCLKX following the eighth rising edge or FSX going low, whichever
occurs later, disables DX. A rising edge on FSR, the receive-frame sync pulse, causes the PCM data at DR to
be latched in on the next eight falling edges of BCLKR (BCLKX in synchronous mode). The long-frame sync
pulse can be utilized in either the synchronous or asynchronous mode.
transmit section
The transmit section input is an operational amplifier with provision for gain adjustment using two external
resistors. The low-noise and wide-bandwidth characteristics of this device provide gain in excess of 20 dB
across the audio passband. The operational amplifier drives a unity-gain filter consisting of an RC active prefilter
followed by an eighth-order switched-capacitor band-pass filter clocked at 256 kHz. The output of this filter
directly drives the encoder sample-and-hold circuit. As per µ-law coding conventions, the ADC is a companding
type. A precision voltage reference provides a nominal input overload of 2.5 V peak. The sampling of the filter
output is controlled by the FSX frame-sync pulse. Then, the successive-approximation encoding cycle begins.
The 8-bit code is loaded into a buffer and shifted out through DX at the next FSX pulse. The total encoding delay
is approximately 290 µs. Any offset voltage due to the filters or comparator is cancelled by sign-bit integration.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
receive section
The receive section consists of an expanding DAC that drives a fifth-order low-pass filter clocked at 256 kHz.
The decoder and the fifth-order low-pass filter corrects for the (sin x)/x attenuation caused by the 8-kHz sampleand-hold circuit. The filter is followed by a second-order RC active post-filter/power amplifier capable of driving
a 600-Ω load to a level of 7.2 dBm. The receive section is unity gain. At FSR, the data at DR is clocked in on
the falling edge of the next eight BCLKR (BCLKX) periods. At the end of the decoder time slot, the decoding
cycle begins and 10 µs later, the decoder DAC output is updated. The decoder delay is about 10 µs (decoder
update) plus 110 µs (filter delay) plus 62.5 µs (1/2 frame), or a total of approximately 180 µs.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
power supplies
While the terminals of the TCM320AC54 are well protected against electrical misuse, it is recommended that
the standard CMOS practice be followed, ensuring that ground is connected to the device before any other
connections are made. In applications in which the printed-circuit board can be plugged into a hot socket with
power and clocks already present, an extra long ground pin in the connector should be used.
All ground connections to each device should meet at a common point as close as possible to ANLG GND. This
minimizes the interaction of ground return currents flowing through a common bus impedance. VCC and VBB
supplies should be decoupled by connecting 0.1-µF decoupling capacitors to this common point. These bypass
capacitors must be connected as close as possible to VCC and VBB.
For best performance, the ground point of each codec /filter on a card should be connected to a common card
ground in star formation, rather than via a ground bus. This common ground point should be decoupled to VCC
and VBB with 10-µF capacitors.
