Applications
Data Sheet
The circuit shown in Figure 3 illustrates the use of a MT327xB in a typical receiver application. It requires only a
coupling capacitor (C1) and a crystal or ceramic resonator (X1) to complete the circuit.
The MT3x70B is designed for user who wishes to tailor the guard time for specific applications. When a DTMF
signal is present, the ESt pin will go high. An external microcontroller monitors ESt in real time for a period of time
set by the user. A guard time algorithm must be implemented such that DTMF signals not meeting the timing
requirements are rejected. The MT3x71B uses an internal counter to provide a preset DTMF validation period. It
requires no external components. The DStD output high indicates that a valid DTMF digit has been detected.
The 4.194304 MHz frequency has a secondary advantage in some applications where a real time clock is required.
A 22-bit counter will count 4,194,304 cycles to provide a one second time base.
