Any number of MT88E43 devices can be connected as shown in Figure 8 such that only one crystal is required.
The connection between OSC2 and OSC1
can be D.C. coupled as shown, or the OSC1 input on all devices can be driven from a CMOS buffer (dc coupled)
with the OSC2 outputs left unconnected.
To meet BT and Bellcore requirements for proper tone detection the crystal must have a frequency tolerance of
0.1%.
VRef and CAP Inputs
V
Ref
is the output of a low impedance voltage source equal to V
DD/2
and is used to bias the input opamp. A 0.1µF
capacitor is required between CAP and V
SS
to eliminate noise on V
