73M2901CE
V.22bis Single Chip Modem
APRIL 2004
DESCRIPTION
The 73M2901CE low speed modem integrates a
data pump, controller, and analog front end in a 3.3V
device with a powerful "AT" command host
interface. The modem reduces external component
count/cost by incorporating many features like
parallel phone detect, Line-In-Use and Ring
detection in software without additional components
required.
The device is a "one chip fits all” solution for
applications including set-top boxes, point-of-sale
terminals, automatic teller machines, utility meters,
vending machines and smart card readers.
Another distinctive feature of this device is pin
compatibility with TDK’s flagship embedded hard
modems, the 73M2901CL, and the 73M1903 soft
modem AFE. This offers customers a cost effective
method to design for both hard or soft modem
solutions in the same system as a risk-free cost
reduction path.

73M2901CE
V.22bis Single Chip Modem
HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
The 73M2901CE is designed to operate from a +3.6
to +2.7 volt supply with low power consumption
(~30mW @3.0 volts). The modem supports
automatic standby idle mode. The modem will also
accept a request to power down from the DTE via
hardware control. No additional m
ajor components
are required to complete the modem core logic. The
modem provides direct firmware LED support via
port pins.

INTERRUPT PINS
The external interrupt sources,
DTR
and
RING,
come
from dedicated input pins of the same name.
DTR informs the 73M2901CE that the host has
requested the 73M2901CE perform a specific
function. The function of
DTR
can be changed by
“AT” commands (described in full in the TDK
73M2901CE User’s Guide).
RING
is used to inform the 73M2901CE that the
external DAA circuitry or ring energy detector has
detected a ring signal. It will go active when each
“RING” message is sent on RXD.
In addition, sending any character on the TXD line
also generates an internal interrupt.
CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
The TDK 73M2901CE single chip modem can use
an external 11.0592 MHz reference clock or can
generate a clock using only a crystal and two
capacitors. If an external clock is used, it should be
applied to OSCIN.
but no clocks will be supplied to the CPU. Instruction
processing and activity on the internal busses is
halted. Normal operation is resumed when an
interruption such as assertion of
DTR
or
RING,
a
character is sent to the 73M2901CE TXD input, or a
reset occurs.
ANALOG LINE / HYBRID INTERFACE
The 73M2901CE provides a differential analog
output (TXAP and TXAN) and a single-ended analog
input (RXA) with internal A/D and D/A converters. A
driver is provided for an internal hybrid function.
The internal hybrid driver is capable of driving an
external load matching impedance and a line-
coupling transformer. The internal hybrid/line driver
senses the load and adapts itself to its requirements.
The 73M2901CE provides firmware control for a
hook relay driver (RELAY) as well as interrupt
support for a ring detect opto-coupler (RING).
POWER SUPPLY
Power is supplied to the 73M2901CE via the VPD
and VPA pins. The 73M2901CE is designed for a
single +3.6 to +2.7 volt supply and for low power
consumption (~30mW @ 3.0 volts). Ground is
supplied to the 73M2901CE via VND and VNA pins.
The 73M2901CE has been designed with separated
analog and digital supplies to insure the best
performance of the part by using separately filtered
power supplies. It is recommended that separate
locally bypassed traces be used to apply power to
the analog supply VPA and the digital supply VPD.
LOW POWER MODE
The TDK 73M2901CE supports a low power standby
mode. If the low power standby option is enabled the
73M2901CE will go into a power saving mode when
idle. The oscillator will be running, clocks will be
supplied to the UART, timers and interrupt blocks;

SPECIFYING A CRYSTAL
The manufacturer of a crystal resonator verifies its
frequency of oscillation in a test set-up, but to
ensure that the same frequency is obtained in the
application, the circuit conditions must be the same.
The TDK 73M2901CE modem requires a parallel
mode
(anti-resonant) crystal, the important
specifications of which are as follows:
Mode: Parallel (anti-resonant)
Frequency: 11.0592 MHz
Frequency tolerance: ±50 ppm at initial temperature.
Temp. drift: An additional ±50 ppm over full range.
Load capacitance: 18pF to 22pF
ESR: 75Ω max.
Drive level: Less than 1mW.
The peak voltage level of the oscillator should be
checked to assure it will not violate the maximum
voltage levels allowed on the oscillator pins. A
resistor in series with the crystal can be used, if
necessary, to reduce the oscillator’s peak voltage
levels.
Crystals with low ESRs may oscillate at higher than
specified voltage levels.
RESET
A reset is accomplished by holding the RESET pin
high. To ensure a proper power-on reset, the reset
pin must be held high for a minimum of 3
µs.
At
power on, the voltage at VPD, VPA, and RESET
must come up at the same time for a proper reset.
The signals
DCD, CTS
and
DSR
will be held inactive
for 25ms, acknowledging the reset operation, within
a 250ms time window after the reset -triggering
event. The 73M2901CE is ready for operation after
the 250ms window and/or after the signals
DCD, CTS
and
DSR
become active.
ASYNCHRONOUS AND SYNCHRONOUS SERIAL
DATA INTERFACE
The serial data interface consists of the TXD and
RXD data paths (LSB shifted in and out first) and the
TXCLK and RXCLK serial synchronous clock
outputs associated with the data pins;
CTS/RTS
flow
control;
DCD, DSR
and
DTR.
In asynchronous mode,
the data is passed at the bit rate (tolerance is +1%, -
2.5%).
