input TI should be reasonably low in order
to keep the gain spread down, saying that
R4//R5//R6 (see fig. 32) must be at least a
factor of 5 lower than the ZTin. Observe
that the capacitor C9 should have a
reasonably good temperature behaviour
in order to keep the impedance rather
constant. The V+C´s influence on the
transmitter DC-characteristic is shown in
the fig. 8 therefore the transmitter gain
would change if the transmitted signal
gives reason to an ac-voltage leak signal
across C9, this being a feedback point. If
Transmitter amplifier
The transmitter amplifier in PBL 3852
consists of three stages. The first stage is
an amplitude limiter for the input signal at
TI, in order to prevent the transmitted
signal to exceed a certain set level and
cause distortion. The second stage
amplifies further the signal from the first
and adds it to a DC level from an internal
DC-regulation loop in order to give the
required DC characteristic to the
telephone set. The output for this stage is
TO. The third stage is a current generator
that presents a high impedance towards
the line and has its gain from TO to +L.
The gain of this amplifier is ZL/R7 where
ZL is the impedance across the tele-
phone line. Hence, the absolute maxi-
use of the linear PD.
