Functional Description
The SLIC performs a transformerless 2-wire to 4-wire conversion of the analog signal. The 2-wire circuit is the
balanced line going to the subscriber loop, while the 4-wire circuit is the audio signal going to and from devices
such as the voice codec or switching circuit. The SLIC also provides a switch hook (SHK) status output which goes
high when the telephone is set off-hook.
Constant Current Feed
The MH88612BV-K family employs complex feedback circuits to supply a constant current feed or, if necessary,
constant voltage feed to the line. With a nominal -48 V battery the device will supply a constant current of typically
25 mA to a line up to 1100
Ω.
For longer lines there is insufficient battery voltage so the device automatically
switches to constant voltage mode where Tip and Ring will stay at their minimum and maximum voltage levels and
the supplied current will be reduced accordingly. The maximum line resistance supported is 2000
Ω
including the
telephone set.
Switch Hook Detection
The SHK pin will go to logic 1 to indicate that a telephone connected to the line has gone off-hook (on-line). Off-
hook will not be indicated if the loop resistance (including the telephone set) is too high for the device to support.
The SHK output will toggle to indicate dial pulses on the line. If the capacitor on CAP (Pin 19) has not been
switched out of circuit the dial pulses will be distorted.
Ringing And Ring Trip Detection
In Figure 3 a ringing signal (e.g.,90 Vrms and -48Vdc) is applied to the line by disconnecting pin 15 (RV) from pin
11(RF), and connecting the ringing voltage at pin 11 (RF) by use of the relay K1.
The SLIC can detect an off-hook condition during ringing but there is a large AC component which must be filtered
out to give a true off-hook condition at SHK.
A 1.0
µF
capacitor connected from pin 19 (CAP) to ground will provide adequate attenuation when ringing is
applied. Once an off-hook condition has been detected a logic low should be applied to pin 13 (RC) which will
deactivate the relay (K1) to disconnect the ringing voltage from pin 11 and reconnect to pin 15. At that time the SLIC
will revert to constant current feed operation.

Data Sheet
For applications requiring Dial Pulse Detection the Capacitor connection to ground C1 should be controlled such
that the capacitor is disconnected during Pulse Dialling.
If the signalling method is unknown, a capacitor of approximately 56 nf should be permanently fitted between CAP
(pin 19) and ground. This should be in addition to the capacitor mentioned in the above paragraph.
During off-hook conditions (on-line), the capacitor (C1) should not have a low impedance path to ground. This can
be achieved using a transistor (Q1) and resistor (R2) as shown in Figure 3, with R2 providing a high impedance
path for C1. When ringing is applied (RC = 5V) the transistor will short circuit R2 which will give C1 a low impedance
path to ground and provide the required filtering.
Other methods can be used to switch out C1, such as a relay or a codec system drive output (with a similar
configuration as above).
For applications using DTMF signalling, C1 can be permanently connected to ground.
Current Limit
The Tip or Ring of the telephone line may accidentally be shorted to ground. In such a case, current will only flow through
the feed resistor. This high current will be sensed and reduced by the current limit circuit to a lower value to protect the
internal circuitry.
Power Denial
The power denial function is a feature of the MH88612 which allows for powering down of the subscriber loop. A
logic high voltage applied to the power denial input effectively removes the battery voltage from the loop driver
circuitry. The resulting I
LOOP
is negligible and power consumption is minimized. The power denial function is useful
for disabling a loop which may have a ground fault.
