DESCRIPTION
b0
BURST
BURST MODE
A logic ‘0’ enables the burst mode. When this mode is selected,
data corresponding to the desired DTMF tone pair can be written to
the Transmit Register resulting in a tone burst of a specific duration
(see AC Characteristics). Subsequently, a pause of the same
duration is induced. Immediately following the pause, the Status
Register is updated indicating that the Transmit Register is ready
for further instructions and an interrupt will be generated if the
interrupt mode has been enabled. Additionally, if call progress
(CP) mode has been enabled, the burst and pause duration is
increased by a factor of two. When the burst mode is not selected
(logic ‘1’) tone bursts of any desired duration may be generated.
b1
TEST
TEST MODE
By enabling the test mode (logic’1’), the IRQ/CP pin will present
the delayed steering (inverted) signal from the DTMF receiver.
Refer to Figure 9 (b3 waveform) for details concerning the output
waveform. DTMF mode must be selected (CRA b1=0) before test
mode can be implemented.
b2
b3
S/D
C/R
SINGLE /DUAL TONE
GENERATION
A logic ‘0’ will allow Dual Tone Multi-Frequency signals to be
produced. If single tone generation is enabled (logic ‘1’), either
row or column tones (low group or high group) can be generated
depending on the state of b3 in Control Register B.
COLUMN/ROW TONES
When used in conjunction with b2 (above) the transmitter can be
made to generate single row or single column frequencies. A logic
‘0’ will select row frequencies and a logic ‘1’ will select column
frequencies.
