Power-down and Inhibit Mode
A logic high applied to pin 6 (PWDN) will power down
the device to minimize the power consumption in a
standby mode. It stops the oscillator and the
functions of the filters.
Inhibit mode is enabled by a logic high input to the
pin 5 (INH). It inhibits the detection of tones
representing characters A, B, C, and D. The output
code will remain the same as the previous detected
code (see Table 1).
Differential Input Configuration
The input arrangement of the MT8870D/MT8870D-1
provides a differential-input operational amplifier as
well as a bias source (V
Ref
) which is used to bias the
inputs at mid-rail. Provision is made for connection of
a feedback resistor to the op-amp output (GS) for
adjustment of gain. In a single-ended configuration,
the input pins are connected as shown in Figure 10
with the op-amp connected for unity gain and V

Figure 6 - Differential Input Configuration
The internal clock circuit is completed with the
addition of an external 3.579545 MHz crystal and is
normally connected as shown in Figure 10 (Single-
Ended Input Configuration). However, it is possible
to configure several MT8870D/MT8870D-1 devices
employing only a single oscillator crystal. The
oscillator output of the first device in the chain is
coupled through a 30 pF capacitor to the oscillator
input (OSC1) of the next device. Subsequent devices
are connected in a similar fashion. Refer to Figure 7
for details. The problems associated with
unbalanced loading are not a concern with the
arrangement shown, i.e., precision balancing
capacitors are not required.
