UTC MC34118G-S28-R

As a voice switched speaker-phone integrated circuit, the UTC MC34118 includes the necessary amplifiers, attenuators, level detectors and control algorithm. To form the UTC MC34118’s internal circuit, there is an internal microphone amplifier with adjustable gain and mute control, internal transmit and Receive attenuators (operate in a complementary manner), level detectors at both input and output of both attenuators, and background noise monitors for both the transmit and receive channels. The dial tone can be pretended from being attenuated by the receive background noise monitor circuit by a dial tone detector. There are also two line driver amplifiers which can be used to form a hybrid network in conjunction with an external coupling transformer. A high-pass filter can be used for other filtering functions, and especially to filter out 60Hz noise in the receive channel. The UTC MC34118 which requiring typically 5mA may be operated from a power supply, or it can be powered from the telephone line.

Between operation of a speakerphone and a handset, the fundamental difference is that of half-duplex versus full-duplex. The UTC MC34118 includes the necessary level detectors, attenuators, and switching control for a properly operating speakerphone. The detection sensitivity and timing can be externally controlled. The UTC MC34118 also provides background noise monitors to make the circuit insensitive to room and line noise, hybrid amplifier to interface to Tip and Ring, the microphone amplifier, and other associated functions.
