When both handsets are on-hook, resistors R1 and R2 supply power to them. When both hand-sets are off-hook, they transmit and receive their own audio. All the TCB does is supply power to them through R1 and R2. If switch S1 is closed, resistor R6 simulates a telephone being plugged into J2, permitting the testing of only one telephone. Now consider the situation where one handset is on-hook and one is off-hook. That causes the on-hook line to go to 24 Vdc and the off-hook line to go to 7 Vdc. The coil of relay RY1 is connected across the two telephone lines, and the voltage difference between the two lines energizes it. When the contacts of RY1 are closed, C2 charges through R4; it takes about 1 second for C2 to charge to 12 Vdc. The 12 Vdc across C2 causes a voltage-controlled switch consisting of R5, Q1, Q2, SCR1, and R8 to close, thus energizing RY2. When RY2 is energized, RY1 is removed from the circuit and a 60-Hz, 37-V p-p sine wave is placed on the telephone lines, causing the telephones to ring. Because RY1 is removed from the circuit, capacitor C2 starts discharging through R7. It takes about 1 second for the capacitor to discharge to about 2.4 Vdc. That lower voltage level causes the voltage-controlled switch to disable RY2, removing the ring voltage from the telephone lines and putting relay RY1 back in the circuit. If one telephone is still off-hook and one is on-hook, the cycle is repeated. (View)

Uses all four sections of Motorola MC3302 quad comparator. First section is connected as 20-kHz oscillator that supplies sawtooth output sweeping between voltage limits set by 100K positive feedback resistor and 15-V supply. Section 2 compares sawtooth output to feedback signal, to produce variable-duty-cycle output pulse for power switch of switching regulator. Sections 3 and 4 initiate current-limiting action; section 3 senses over current and triggers section 4 connected as mono MVBR. Limiting occurs at about 4 A. When load short is removed, regulator resets automatically. Point A goes to push-pull drive for power switch of regulator, and point B goes to current-sensing resistor in output circuit of regulator. Point y goes to 10-V supply.-R. J. Bayer, A New Approach to Switching Regulators, Motorola, Phoenix, AZ, 1975, AN-719, p 7. (View)

The circuit connects in series with either the tip or the ring (green or red) telephone line. Power for the circuit is full-wave bridge-rectified from the phone line by diodes Dl through D4. Transistor Q1, capacitors C1 and C8, and inductor L3 form an FM oscillator that operates at a frequency of around 93 MHz. Variable capacitor C8 allows the oscillator frequency to be adjusted between 90 and 95 MHz. To move the tuning area up to the 98- to 105-MHz range, C1 must be replaced with a 10-pF capacitor. Audio from the phone line is coupled through R3 and C2 to the base of Q1, where it frequency-modulates the oscillator. Transistor Q3, inductor L1, and capacitor C6 form a power amplifier. The signal tapped off L3 in the oscillator circuit is fed to the base of transistor Q2, and the FM signal is transmitted from Q2's collector. Inductor L2 is a radio-frequency shunt that decouples power and audio from the amplifier circuit. (View)

A new multiwinding transformer (configurable by the user for a variety of applications) enables an inverting controller to produce the high negative voltages required by an ISDN board or other telephone line card. Such line cards use a subscriber-line interface circuit (SLIC), such as the 79R79 ringing SLIC from AMD. This IC generates the off-hook and on-hook signal transmission, ring-tone generation, and ring-tip detection that constitute an analog telephone interface. For off-hook signal transmission, it requires a tightly regulated -24 or -48 V; to generate ring tones, it requires a loosely regulated -70 V. The five -ringer-equivalent requirement demands 9 to 10 W from the -70-V output, which translates to a full-load lout of about 150 mA. IC1 is an inverting switching regulator that usually converts a 3- to 16-V input to a fixed output of -5 V or an adjustable output. In the circuit shown, three pairs of windings in series (provided by a single off-the-shelf multiwinding transformer) enable IC1 to generate the high voltages needed by a SLIC IC1 (D1). Connecting a diode and output capacitors (C7 and C9) at the first or second pair of windings produces -24 V (as shown) or -48 V, respectively. Feedback to the IC via R1 and R2 achieves tight regulation at this output. The trans-former turns ratios establish a loose regulation at the -70-V output. The circuit can service a five telephone load (10 W) from an input of 12 V, ±10 percent. It operates down to 3 V and produces about 2.4 W at 3.3 V and 3.9 W at 5 V. The -70-V output depends on cross-regulation with respect to the -24-V output. It is, therefore, affected by relative loading on the two outputs (i.e., whether one is heavily loaded and the other lightly loaded, or vice versa). (View)
