5.2 MX602 CIDCW (Calling Line Identity on Call Waiting) Operation
5.2.1 Introduction
CIDCW is a telephone service which identifies a waiting caller without interrupting your current call. It eliminates the ‘blind
spot’ in traditional Call Waiting by giving a telephone user the informed choice of whether or not to take the incoming call.
To support CIDCW, the circuits of Caller ID compatible telephone equipment and adjunct ‘boxes’ must detect a subtle
CPE Alert Signal (CAS), a dual tone injected into phone conversations. The CAS is transmitted by the central office to
initiate a CIDCW transaction consisting of an 80ms burst of simultaneous 2130Hz and 2750Hz tones. CAS detection
accuracy is very important because both missed and false signal detection is evident and annoying to telephone users.
Missed signal detection causes Caller ID information to be lost. False signal detection produces a disruptive tone which is
heard by the far end caller. Because the tone signals must be detected in the presence of conversations which both mask
and masquerade as the tone signals, this function is very difficult to accurately achieve.
This application note describes the use of the MX602 for CIDCW CAS detection. The MX602’s 1µA ring detect supply
current, 3.3 to 5.5 volt supply range, and 16 pin package offer significant advantages in battery life and final product size.
