Description
The MT3x7xB is a family of high performance DTMF
receivers which decode all 16 tone pairs into a 4-bit
binary code. These devices incorporate an AGC for
wide dynamic range and are suitable for end-to-end
signalling. The MT3x70B provides an early steering
(ESt) logic output to indicate the detection of a DTMF
signal and requires external software guard time to
validate the DTMF digit. The MT3x71B, with preset
internal guard times, uses a delay steering (DStD)
logic output to indicate the detection of a valid DTMF
digit. The 4-bit DTMF binary digit can be clocked out
synchronously at the serial data (SD) output. The
SD pin is multiplexed with call progress detector
output. In the presence of supervisory tones, the
call progress detector circuit indicates the cadence
(i.e., envelope) of the tone burst. The cadence
information can then be processed by an external
microcontroller to identify specific call progress
signals. The MT327xB and MT337xB can be used
with a crystal or a ceramic resonator without
additional components. A power-down option is
provided for the MT317xB and MT337xB.
