Advance Information
MT91L62
Companding law selection for the Filter/Codec is
provided by the A/µ companding control pin. Table
1 illustrates these choices.
Overview
The 3V Single-Rail Codec features complete Analog/
Digital and Digital/Analog conversion of audio
signals (Filter/Codec) and an analog interface to a
standard analog transmitter and receiver (analog
Interface). The receiver amplifier is capable of
driving a 20k ohm load.

Filter/Codec
Table 1: Law Selection
The Filter/Codec block implements conversion of the
analog 0-3.3 kHz speech signals to/from the digital
domain compatible with 64 kb/s PCM B-Channels.
Selection of companding curves and digital code
assignment are programmable. These are ITU-T
G.711 A-law or µ-Law, with true-sign/Alternate Digit
Inversion.
Analog Interfaces
Standard interfaces are provided by the MT91L62.
These are:
• The analog inputs (transmitter), pins AIN+/AIN-.
The maximum peak to peak input is 2.123Vpp
µ−law across AIN+/AIN-
The Filter/Codec block also implements a transmit
audio path gain in the analog domain. Figure 3
depicts the nominal half-channel for the MT91L62.
and 2.2Vpp A-law
across these pins.
• The analog outputs (receiver), pins AOUT+/
AOUT-.This internally compensated fully
differential output driver is capable of driving a
load of 20k ohms.
The internal architecture is fully differential to provide
the best possible noise rejection as well as to allow a
wide dynamic range from a single 3 volt supply
design. This fully differential architecture is
continued into the Analog Interface section to
provide full chip realization of these capabilities for
the external functions.
PCM Serial Interface
A serial link is required to transport data between the
MT91L62 and an external digital transmission
device. The MT91L62 utilizes the strobed data
interface found on many standard Codec devices.
This interface is commonly referred to as Simple
Serial Interface (SSI).

The transmit filter is designed to meet ITU-T G.714
specifications. An anti-aliasing filter is included. This
is a second order lowpass implementation with a
corner frequency at 25 kHz.
The receive filter is designed to meet ITU-T G.714
specifications. Filter response is peaked to
compensate for the sinx/x attenuation caused by the
8 kHz sampling rate.
