FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
The SAMES SA54X1 is a family of keypad switchable Loop Disconnect (LD)/Dual Tone
multi-Frequency (DTMF) dialler devices for use in low-cost, dual dialling mode telephone
instruments.
The devices feature automatic storage of a single telephone number of up to 32 digits
for Last Number Redial (LNR) purposes. The low current consumption of the SA54X1
ensures memory retention while powered from the line.
Two modes of operation are available. The first is a LD/DTMF mode which operates
normally in LD mode, but can be switched temporarily via the keypad to DTMF mode
during a call. This mode is intended for applications such as home banking, credit-card
verification and other applications requiring low speed data communications. The
second mode allows DTMF dialling only.
The Lock function will be described in the Functional Description.
The SA54X1 is pin compatible with SAMES' SA54X5 family of diallers.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Note: All timing data assumes the use of a 560 kHz ceramic resonator as time base.
1. Power On
When power is applied to the chip, a power-on reset circuit operates and ensures that
the Last Number Redial (LNR) store is cleared and all logic is reset. The power-on
reset circuit is designed such that if the chip supply voltage drops to a level at which
the LNR store may be corrupted, it will always, under all conditions, clear the store
when power is restored, so that corrupt data is not retained.
2. Hookswitch Operation
The HSW input is used to inform the SA54X1 of whether the telephone is on-hook
or off-hook. Logic `0' is recognised as on-hook, Logic `1' is recognised as off-hook.
When the HSW input rises from `0' to `1' the off-hook state is recognised immediately
and keypad inputs are accepted. However, when the HSW input falls from `1' to `0'
the on-hook state is not recognised for 200-300ms. This ensures that short line
breaks of less than 200ms, such as line reversals applied by the exchange, are
ignored. In this case, the MASK and IMP outputs will go low immediately the HSW
input goes low in order to preserve current, but will resume normal operation
immediately HSW goes high.
On-hook state: In the on-hook state all chip outputs are set low, the oscillator circuit
is inhibited and no key inputs are accepted. This conserves supply current so that
the LNR store contents may be retained.
Off-hook state: When the HSW input goes high, the MASK output immediately
goes to the logic `1' level and remains there until dialling starts (see Figure 5).
COLUMN outputs also go high until a key is pressed. The oscillator circuit remains
inactive until a key is pressed, and is normally off whenever timing functions are not
required, hence reducing operating current.
3.
Keypad Operation
A single contact, normally open keypad is required. When off-hook, the COLUMN
outputs are normally held high and the ROW inputs are low (via internal pull-down
resistors). When a key is pressed, a COLUMN output is connected to a ROW input,
pulling the latter high.
This action initiates keyboard scanning. During keyboard scanning, the COLUMN
outputs are normally low but generate scanning pulses at 7ms intervals on each
output, in sequence. A key is accepted as valid when two successive scanning
pulses from the same COLUMN are seen on a ROW input. Hence, the minimum
bounce-free key closure period which is necessary to guarantee detection is
14ms(plus the oscillator start up time if it was not already running).

Simultaneous Key Depressions: If two keys are pressed simultaneously (i.e. a
second key is pressed before the first has been verified), neither key will be accepted
until both keys are released and the correct key is pressed again.

Dialling Mode Selection
The dialling mode may be selected via the SELECT pin (pin 2) as detailed in Table
3. Four Loop-Disconnect options are available with different Interdigit pauses (IDP)
and Break:Make ratios. If the DTMF mode is selected, dialling will remain fixed in
the DTMF mode. However, if one of the LD modes is selected, the chip will be in
LD mode in the initial off-hook condition, but may be switched to DTMF by pressing
either the
or # keys, provided that dialling is not in progress. If the
or # keys are
pressed during LD dialling, they will be ignored.
Once in DTMF mode, depression of either the
or # keys will cause the relevant
tone-pair to be output. Only digits entered prior to a DTMF switchover will be stored
and available for redialling (see Last Number Redial operation).
Once switched to DTMF, dialling will remain in this mode until either a Recall (Flash)
operation or until the device returns to the on-hook state.

Last Number Redial (LNR)
The function of the on-chip LNR store is to automatically retain a manually dialled
number for redialling later. The capacity of the store is 32 digits. If a number longer
than 32 digits is dialled, redialling will be inhibited.
The LNR store has two features designed to assist the user,viz: Moving Cursor
Facility and Mixed Mode Dialling.
Moving Cursor Facility: This facility is provided to aid use in PABX applications,
where the user must first dial an access digit or digits, and then wait for a second dial-
tone before continuing dialling.
If the first digits of a new number dialled match the contents of the LNR store, then
pressing LNR button will dial out the remaining digits.
If there is a mismatch in the numbers then redial is inhibited until the next on-hook
and the LNR store will contain the new number.
If the user manually dials the first digit(s) matching those stored in LNR, and then
goes on-hook, the whole contents of the store will be retained.
Mixed Mode Dialling: In the case of a call which starts in LD mode and is switched
by the user (via the
or # keys) to DTMF mode, only the digits dialled in LD mode
will be retained. Provided that the number of digits dialled in LD mode does not
exceed 32, the digits will be retained regardless of the number of DTMF digits
entered subsequently.
6.
Earth Loop Recall (ELR) / Timed Break Recall (TBR) (Timed Flash)
The SA54X1 supports both TBR and ELR and offers a common operating protocol
in both cases.
After a Recall (Flash) operation, the dialling mode selected via the SELECT pin will
be restored. Only the digits dialled after the ELR/TBR operation will be retained in
the LNR store.
A TBR of 100ms (300ms on SA54X14) is generated when the TBR key is pressed.
The MASK output goes low in order to produce the line break. When in DTMF mode,
the MF OUT output also goes low for the duration of the break.
ELR is supported via the C3 pin. If this pin is connected to ground for a minimum
of 20ms during an ELR operation, the chip will offer the same operating protocol as
for TBR.
The ELR function may be achieved by use of the circuit shown in Figure 2, or by use
of a double contact switch.

Oscillator Circuit
This requires an external 560KHz ceramic resonator connected between OSC IN
and OSC OUT, providing a timing reference for all chip functions.
Consult your resonator supplier for recommendation of a suitable resonator type.
8.
Tone Filtering
The spectral purity of the DTMF output is sufficient for most applications. However,
where lower distortion DTMF tones are required, an on-chip Darlington pair is
provided (accessible via pins 6 & 7) for use in a low pass active filter.
Figure 3 shows how a 2-pole Sallen and Key filter may be implemented. The typical
component values have been chosen to give a second order Butterworth response
with a cut-off frequency of about 3,5KHz and a nominal pass-band insertion loss of
0,5dB. The relative values of R3 and R4 may be adjusted to achieve the desired
DTMF amplitude which varies with supply voltage.

DTMF Tone Filtering
Figure 3: 2-Pole Sallen and Key Filter Circuit
9.
DTMF Dialling (Figure 4)
During DTMF dialling, the MUTE output goes to logic `1' and remains there for the
duration of the tone transmission. The IMP output remains low during tone
transmission. The MF OUT output rises to its d.c. level of 0,9 V
DD
at the start of the
tone transmission and is kept there between tone bursts. This is to avoid transients
at the beginning and end of tone bursts.
The maximum rate at which tones are sent to line is 100ms on, followed by 100ms
off. If keys are activated faster than this, they are placed in a temporary store and
then sent to line at the maximum rate. Dialling from the LNR store occurs at the
maximum rate.
If a key is held down for longer than 100ms, the tone output will continue until the
key is released.

10. Loop Disconnect Dialling (Figures 5 and 6)
The MASK output is provided in order to disable the speech circuit during LD dialling.
Consequently, the MASK output is normally at logic '1' in the off-hook condition, but
changes to logic '0' during LD dialling. MASK also changes to logic '0' in order to
signal a Timed Break Recall (Flash) to the line. Both MUTE and MF OUT remain
low during LD dialling.
LD dialling is signalled on the IMP output. A break is signalled by a logic '0', make
periods and IDP times are signalled by a logic '1'. When not dialling, the IMP output
remains at logic '0'.

11. LOCKING FACILITY
This feature is available on the SA54L1. Pin 11 (LOCK) should be connected to V
SS
if the device is to be locked and to V
DD
if the device is to be unlocked. This feature
can be controlled by an inexpensive low voltage SPDT switch. When locked,
columns 1,2 and 3 on the keypad are disabled making it impossible to dial out any
digits. However column 4 is not disabled, thus allowing the user to redial the contents
of the LNR store. The user would therefore typically store an emergency number
in the LNR memory before locking the keypad.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The circuit in Figure 7 uses a constant current supply to draw current from the
telephone line which is used to power the SA54X1. The 2,5V reference diode
produces a stabilised supply voltage which determines the DTMF tone level of the
SA54X1.
In Figure 8, a stabilising voltage from the speech circuit is used to supply the SA54X1
during DTMF dialling to give accurate tone levels.
The SA54X1 is powered via the 150K
resistor during TBR operations and LD
dialling breaks, and via T1 during dialling makes. This configuration minimises the
component count, at the expense of allowing a leakage current of about 450A
during dialling breaks. The 47F reservoir capacitor maintains and smoothes the
supply to the chip.
