PBL 386 61/2
Preliminary
High-Pass Transmit Filter
WhenCODEC/filterwithasingel5Vpower
supply is used, it is necessary to separate
the different signal reference voltages be-
tween the SLIC and the CODEC/filter. In
the transmit direction this can be done by
connecting a capacitor between the VTX
output of the SLIC and the CODEC/filter
input. This capacitor will also form, togeth-
er with RTX and/or the input impedance of
theCODEC/filter, ahigh-passRCfilter. Itis
recommended to position the 3 dB break
point of this filter between 30 and 80 Hz to
get a fast enough response for the dc steps
that may occur with DTMF signaling.
Capacitor CLP
ThecapacitorCLP,whichconnectsbetween
the terminals LP and VBAT, positions the
high end frequency break point of the low
pass filter in the dc loop in the SLIC. CLP

Ω (references D in figure 13). The current
limitation region is adjustable between
0 mA and 65 mA13.
When the line current is approaching
open loop conditions, the overhead volt-
age is reduced. To ensure maximum open
loopvoltage, evenwithtelephonelineleak-
age, this occurs at a line current of approx-
imately 5 mA (references E in figure 13).
After the overhead voltage reduction, the
line voltage is kept nearly constant with a
steep slope corresponding to 2 • 25 Ω(ref-
erence G in figure 13).

Adaptive Overhead Voltage, AOV
The Adaptive Overhead Voltage feature
minimises the power dissipation and at the
same time provides a flexible solution for
differing system requirements and possi-
ble future changes concerning voice, me-
tering and other signal levels. This is done
by using an overhead voltage which auto-
matically adapts to the signal level (voice +
metering). With the AOV-pin left open, the
PBL 386 61/2 will behave as a SLIC with
fixed overhead voltage for signals in the 0
