    摘要: An AC impedance matching architecture which provides programmable AC impedance matching in a given range using a digital filter to filter a signal fed back from the impedance matched line to generate an AC impedance emulation control signal. The AC impedance emulation control signal is combined with a transmit signal (if desired) and drives a voltage controlled current source, which is in parallel with a reference impedance. A voltage is developed across the reference impedance to drive, e.g., the telephone line. The reference impedance is chosen based on a desired maximum AC impedance. The gain of the digital filter, a first order sigma delta filter in the disclosed embodiment, is chosen based on the desired value of the AC impedance. The transfer function of the digital filter is derived based on a desired AC impedance.

    摘要: The present invention provides a digital pre-distortion filter in arrangement with a data access arrangement (DAA) on the component side (e.g., in a modem chipset). This arrangement of the pre-distortion filter outside of the DAA allows digital processes such as digital emulation of the central office impedance to remain unaffected by the pre-distortion in the transmitted signal, allowing the dynamic range of the transmitted signal to be flattened to minimize return loss without complicating the transfer function of the digital emulation of the central office complex load. In the case of a digital emulation filter, placement of a digital pre-distortion filter outside of an analog-to-digital (A/D) digital-to-analog (D/A) loop also minimizes the noise otherwise associated with the use of a pre-distortion filter. Thus, benefits of a pre-distortion filter can be gained without interfering with emulation of impedance, and without causing a significant amount of noise in the transmitted signal.

    摘要: DC transients are removed from a digital filter such as a sigma delta filter (in particular from a sigma delta high pass filter) from the outset by presetting an input summing node to a sigma delta modulator. While the input summing node may be preset using any appropriate input, in a disclosed embodiment, a sigma delta high pass filter is preset by switching a partial feedback term between an input containing the non-zero preset value and the normal input comprising the output from the input summing node. The preset value is chosen based on the value of the zero of the transfer function of the sigma delta high pass filter, e.g., with the complement of the gain factor.

    摘要: Telephone line service type identification is provided to a telephone technician in the field by the placement of one or more tuned circuit(s) across the telephone line. In one embodiment, an inexpensive tuned circuit such as a ceramic resonator forms a telecom service resonator ID device which is placed across a telephone line, either at the central office or at the customer premises. Injection of a test current at a predetermined frequency, and a suitable amplitude of the same indicates to the technician aspects of telecom service to that particular telephone line (e.g., the existence of POTS, ISDN, and/or xDSL) and or use of the telephone line by a home network such as HPNA. In another embodiment, a telecom service transponder ID device is formed to provide line service identification to an interrogating line technician. The telecom service transponder ID device is activated when the test signal including an appropriate frequency is present to cause excitation in the telecom service transponder ID device. The resonator and transponder devices preferably have very high impedances at all frequencies except at the desired resonant frequency, and thus avoids violation of telephone service standards. The resonator or transponder ID devices may be placed anywhere along the telephone line, but preferably at the customer premises, or in installed equipment utilizing the telephone line. More than one resonation frequency may be implemented with parallel tuned circuits to indicate additional features of service on the telephone line (e.g., the number of services, the existence of a data service, etc.). The frequencies of resonance of the tuned circuits are preferably chosen to exist between the spectrum utilized by the various operating services.

    摘要: A line powered data access arrangement (DAA) is disclosed which adaptively allows proper operation with power supplied from a telephone line as conditions warrant, while at the same time satisfying the relevant requirements of many countries. In the line powered codec, a startup procedure for the international line powered codec uses register settings, e.g., country-specific register settings, which are powered and maintained from the low voltage side (e.g., from the PC or modem side) of the line powered codec. In this way, even during low line power conditions the programmed state of the line powered codec can be maintained, thus a default condition will not necessarily returned to by the line powered codec upon reset due to a power loss in the telephone line. In another aspect, a charge storage device such as a charge capacitor is charged from a charge pump formed from a differential clock signal from the low voltage side. A current and voltage detection module in the line powered codec is always powered from the telephone line. Upon detection of an off-hook signal or a power down condition, the current detection module determines if/when the current and voltage on the telephone line is sufficient to power certain circuits on the line powered codec. If sufficient power is not present, the line powered codec does not power up. However, the line powered codec will power up if sufficient current is detected. In another aspect, a plurality of power rails may be provided. A first power rail may be associated with the line power, a second power rail may be associated with a low voltage side power source, e.g., a charge storage device. A third (and other) power rails may be switchably connected to either the first power rail or second power rail as line power conditions and on-hook/off-hook conditions warrant.

A startup procedure uses country-specific register settings, which are powered and maintained from a low voltage side other than the telephone line.

In another aspect, a current and voltage detection module in the line powered codec is always powered from the telephone line. If sufficient power is not present, the line powered codec does not power up. In yet another aspect, a plurality of power rails may be provided.
