The diode has to be low
voltage drop type.
Receiver mute only.
Note #1 These values ensure that the
frequency behaviour of the transmitter is
not influenced. With the ratio 1/10 the
influenceis1dB, andwithratio1/20it´s0.5
dB.

Note #2 If the R7 is made low ohmic
compared with Zbal, it will load the latter
speech circuit it has to be isolated. If a
diode is used it has to be a low voltage
drop type. The input at mute has to be
below 300mV. If the mute signal has
reverse polarity out of the system it can be
phase changed like in e.) In case it is
required to mute the receiver only, d.) it
can be done by shorting the receiver input
togroundbeforeoraftertheinputcapacitor.
Shorting the input pin to ground (does not
have to be absolute ground) actuates a
mutebydrivingtheamplifierintosaturation
thus blocking the signal path and rende-
ring a mute with high attenuation but will
cause a DC-level shift at output which in

This can be softened with a slower mute
signal flank. If the second approach,
grounding before the input capacitor is
chosen,thegroundinghastobelowohmic

The circuit has a mute function at pin 5.
Sinking current from this pin will cut off the
gain in the microphone amplifier
(attenuation min. 60dB) and decrease the
gain in the receiver amplifier to reach the
confidence tone level at DTMF-dialling.
The receiver mute is ≈ 40dB down from the
unmuted value to satisfy those who keep
the handset close to the ear at dialling.

To alter the level, a signal can be taken
from DTMF generator output to receiver
input before the capacitor C6. The added
impedance to this point will hardly disturbe

the impedances unnecessary high will
make the circuit sensitive to RFI. All values

in the acoustical path between the

This type of side tone balancing will
help when for some reason there is a need
to make the R6 low < 47Ω and thus the
signal for balancing gets small across R6.

in fig.15 the possible signal level is 6 dB
higher than in the first case and it will also
help in case when a volume control is
added to the receiver.
Start up circuit
The circuit contains a start up device
which function is to fast charge capacitor
C1 when the circuit goes into hook- off
condition. The fast charge circuit is a

in an inoperative speech funktion. This
circuit can not retrigger before the voltage
level at C1 drops below 2V or the line
voltage is below 1V. See fig. 17.
