Telephone Speech Circuit
with Loudhearing and Handsfree
Austria Mikro Systeme International AG
General Description
Key Features
The AS2520/21/20B/21B are CMOS integrated
circuits that contain all the audio functions needed to
form a high comfort, line-powered telephone.
❑ Line/speech circuit, loudhearing, handsfree and
dc/dc converter on one 28 pin CMOS chip
❑ Operating range from 13 to 100 mA (down to 5
mA with reduced performance)
❑ Soft clipping control eliminating harsh distortion
❑ Volume control of receive signal with squelch and
automatic loop gain compensation
❑ Line loss compensation pin selectable
❑ Low noise (max. - 72 dBmp)
❑ Real or complex impedance adjustable
❑ NET 4 compatible
The devices incorporate line adaptation, speech
circuit, loudhearing and handsfree - all supervised by
the novel voice and power control circuit. A switching
converter is also provided for converting the ring
signal. The interface to a dialler/controller is made
very simple to allow easy adaptation to a telecom
microcontroller.
❑ Dynamically controlled voice switching
❑ Same monitor amplifier for loudhearing, handsfree
and tone ringer
❑ Very few external components
❑ Power derived from ring signal by switching
converter during ringing
The AS2520 series incorporate volume control for the
earpiece and the loudspeaker (AS2520 digital with +/-
keys and AS2521 analogue with potentiometer). The
volume control circuit automatically compensates the
loop gain to ensure acoustic stability.
