The IC takes a user-generated pulse width modulated (PWM) input and converts it to a high voltage sine wave suitable for telephone ringing applications. The LT1684 receives capacitor-isolated differential PWM input signals encoded with desired ring output cadence, frequency, and amplitude information. The LT1684 normalizes the pulse amplitude to ±1.25V for an accurate signal voltage reference. The cadence, frequency and amplitude information is extracted using a multiplepole active filter/amplifier, producing the output ring tone signal. The LT1684 uses its own ring tone output as a reference for generating local supply rails using complementary high voltage external MOSFETs as dynamic level-shifting devices. This “active tracking” supply mode of operation allows linear generation of the high voltage ring tone signal, reducing the need for large high voltage filtering elements. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

The PWM receiver implements a diode forward drop of input hysteresis (relative to IN A). This hysteresis and internal signal limiting assure common mode glitch rejection with isolation capacitor mismatches up to 2:1. For maximum performance, however, effort should be made to match the two PWM input isolation capacitors. Pin IN B is differentially clamped to pin IN A through back-to-back diodes. This results in a high impedance differential input through ±100mV beyond the input thresholds. 5k internal input resistors yield a 10k (nominal) differential overdrive impedance.

ATREF (Pin 7): Active Tracking Supply Reference. Typically connected to pin OUT.

The low frequency modulation component of this signal represents the desired output waveform. Changing the PWM input can thus dynamically control the frequency, cadence, amplitude and DC offset of the desired output. This method of sine wave generation can accomodate all popular ring tone frequencies including 17Hz, 20Hz, 25Hz and 50Hz. The LT1684 receives the PWM input by a capacitorisolated differential input at pins IN A and IN B. This signal is amplitude normalized by a bandgap reference and output single-ended on the BGOUT pin such that the PWM carrier is ±1.25V about the voltage on the OUT pin. The low frequency component of the normalized PWM signal is recovered using an active filter circuit constructed using an onboard driver amplifier. This amplifier also provides current drive for the final ring tone output. The ring tone output is used as the reference for a floating active biasing scheme by pin ATREF. As the ring tone output rises and falls through its typical range of hundreds of volts, the LT1684 “tracks” the output signal, maintaining local supply voltages across the IC of approximately ±10V. Input Receiver/Reference Buffer The differential receiver for the PWM input signal requires minimum differential input levels of 1.6V to assure valid change-of-state. The receiver inputs are capacitor coupled, isolating the LT1684 from the PWM generator. The receiver is leading edge triggered. The input receiver controls a switched-state output that forces an amplitude normalized voltage (referenced to the OUT pin) of ±1.25V that follows the PWM input. This switched voltage is driven off-chip on pin BGOUT. When the IN A input is driven higher than IN B (by the required * Contact Linear Technology for code. U (Refer to Functional Block Diagram) 1.6V), the reference drives BGOUT to +1.25V above OUT. When IN B input is driven higher than IN A, BGOUT is forced to –1.25V relative to OUT. The amplitude normalized representation of the input PWM signal is used as the input for the active filter element and output driver. Output Amplifier/Driver The normalized PWM signal output on the BGOUT pin is converted to the final ring tone signal by an active filter. This filter consists of an onboard amplifier and a few external components. Although many different types of filters can be constructed, a 2-pole Multiple Feedback (MFB) configuration generally provides adequate performance and is desirable due to its simplicity and effectiveness. The low frequency component of the ±1.25V PWM signal contains the desired ring tone frequency and cadence information. The MFB active filter strips this information from the PWM signal and amplifies this low frequency component to generate the final desired output. Active Tracking Supplies Implementation of the active tracking supply technique enables linear generation of the ring tone output, and takes advantage of the intrinsic supply noise immunity of a linear amplifier, reducing the need for large high voltage filtering elements. Two external power MOSFETs act as voltage level-shifting devices and generate the power supply voltages for the LT1684. The LT1684 uses its own output as a voltage reference for the FET level shifters, “suspending” itself (by these generated supply voltages) about the signal output. In this manner, the LT1684 can linearly generate a signal hundreds of volts in amplitude at its output, while maintaining ±10V local supply rails across the IC itself. 7 LT1684 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Encoded PWM Signal Input Basics The LT1684 accepts a user-supplied PWM carrier that represents the desired output ring tone signal. This PWM input is normalized by the LT1684 such that ring tone output amplitudes can be accurately encoded into the PWM input. The LT1684 accepts a differential input to maximize rejection of system transients and ground noise. If no differential signal is readily available from the PWM controller, a simple inverter/buffer block can be used to create the differential signal required. Each differential input is internally connected through a 5k series resistor to back-to-back isolation-base diodes. These devices internally clamp the differential input signal to ±100mV greater than the input comparator hysteresis range. The input comparator toggles with a differential hysteresis equal to that of a standard diode forward voltage (0.7V nominal). As such, the differential impedance of the input remains high throughout the input hysteresis region, then reduces to a nominal value of 10k (7k minimum) as the input is overdriven beyond the comparator input threshold. A minimum differential input of 1.6V is specified to assure valid switching. The PWM signal can be visualized in terms of instantaneous ring tone amplitude, normalized to the LT1684 amplitude reference. For a given desired output voltage VOUTN, the input pulse train required follows the relation: VOUTN = 2 • VREF • (DC – 0.5), or DC = [VOUTN / (2 • VREF)] + 0.5, where: VREF = 1.25V normalized peak voltage DC = PWM input duty cycle 8 U A 10% to 90% duty cycle range is a practical limit for a 10kHz input carrier. This corresponds to normalized signal amplitude of ±1V. Duty cycles exceeding this range can cause increased output signal distortion as signal energy is lost due to finite rise and fall times becoming a significant percentage of the signal pulses. The associated reduction in the pulse energy manifests itself as a “soft clipping” of the output signal resulting in an increase in harmonic distortion. The normalized PWM signal is amplified to the desired output signal level by the active filter/amplifier stage. Thus, dividing the desired peak output amplitude by the peak normalized encoded amplitude (VOUT/VOUTN) yields the required DC gain of the active filter. System Considerations Assuming use of a 10% to 90% maximum PWM range, the peak normalized signal will be: VPWM(pk) = ± 0.8 • VREF = ±1.0V, and: VOUT(pk) = VPWM(pk) • Filter DC Gain Thus, the DC gain of the output filter equals the desired peak voltage of the output ring tone signal. The frequency characteristics of the lowpass output filter must reflect the allowable carrier ripple on the output signal. For example, a 10kHz carrier system could use a 2-pole Butterworth lowpass with a cutoff frequency of 100Hz. This filter provides 40dB of input signal rejection at 10kHz yielding 25mVP-P output ripple. If the DC gain of the output filter/amplifier was 100, the output ripple voltage would be riding on a ±100V sine wave, and therefore be about – 78dB relative to the output ring signal. W UU LT1684 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO For applications that are extremely output ripple sensitive, additional carrier rejection can be accomplished by modifying the output filter/amplifier characteristics such as implementing elliptical filter characteristics with a lower cutoff frequency or implementation of additional poles. Filter Design and Component Selection The ring tone information represented in the low frequency component of the input PWM signal is retrieved using an active filter. This filter also generates the appropriate low frequency gain required to produce the high voltage output signal and references the output to ground (or other system reference). The frequency and gain characteristics of this circuit element are both configurable by the appropriate choice of external passive filter elements. Because of the active tracking supply mode of operation, conventional active filter topologies cannot be used. Most amplifier/filter topologies can, however, be “transformed” into active tracking supply topologies.

A variety of amplifier/filter configurations can be realized using the transformation technique. A 2-pole filter is generally adequate for most ringer applications. Due to the relative simplicity of infinite-gain Multiple Feedback (MFB) configurations, these filters are good candidates for ringer applications. Component selection and active tracking supply transformation will be described for the following 2-pole MFB infinite-gain lowpass filter.

Attempting such a configuration with generic “jelly-bean” components is not recommended for the faint of heart or type-A personalities. The LT1684, however, makes for a simplistic approach to active tracking component selection. The high voltage MOSFET transistors used in the circuit must have an operating VDS specified at greater than the corresponding high voltage supply rail plus the opposite maximum excursion of the output signal. For example, if a system is designed with a 240V supply (+ 120V, –120V) and outputs a ring signal that has a 100V peak amplitude, the MOSFET VDS ratings must be greater than 240/2 + 100 = 220V. Active Filter Tuned Oscillator— No PWM Input Required A simple yet effective method of producing a high quality sine wave is to place a high-Q bandpass filter and a hard limited gain element in a positive feedback loop. This circuit will oscillate at the bandpass frequency, producing a sine wave at the filter output. The product of the fundamental component of the limiter and the filter gain at the bandpass frequency determines the output amplitude. This type of circuit is commonly referred to as an active filter tuned oscillator. LT1684 APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO Active Filter Tuned Oscillator Block Diagram 1684 F03 The LT1684 can be implemented easily into a telephone ringer circuit based on the active filter tuned oscillator topology, eliminating the need for a user-supplied PWM input signal. The LT1684’s active filter amplifier can be used as a high-Q bandpass filter element by configuring it as an active tracking supply bandpass. The LT1684’s controlled output receiver/buffer is also convenient for use as the hard limiter. Because the LT1684 receiver/ buffer requires a true differential input for proper operation, a dual comparator IC such as the LT1017 must be bootstrapped along with the LT1684 to provide differential control signals. The LT1017 and LT1684 receiver/ buffer combine to create a high gain hard limiter whose Bandpass MFB Filter CF2 RF3 RF1 CF1 + VIN – RF2 VOUT – + 1684 F4a Active Tracking Bandpass MFB Filter – RF1 RF2 CF1 VIN + – VOUT + 1684 F5b CF2 RF3 U output is controlled to ±1.25V. The LT1684 active bandpass filter is then connected as a positive feedback element with the limiter component, which completes the active filter tuned oscillator topology. The active bandpass filter circuit is easily configured using a basic MFB bandpass configuration, however, the active tracking supply technique used by the LT1684 requires “transformation” of this topology. This “transformation” swaps the amplifier signal polarity, references all signals to the output, and references all feedback elements to ground as described previously in the Filter Design and Component Selection section. The design equations for the active tracking bandpass filter are the same as the pretransformation MFB topology, such that if CF1 = CF2 = C: RF1 = Q/(ωO • C •H0) RF2 = Q/(2Q2 –H0)(ωO • C) RF3 = 2Q/(ωO • C) Example: Conditions: Output peak voltage = 95V Ring frequency = 20Hz Bandpass Q = 9.4 A square wave with peak amplitude A has a fundamental component with amplitude 4A/π, where A = 1.25V. Therefore, the desired filter’s bandpass gain HO = 95/(4 • 1.25/π) ~ 60. Given capacitor values C = 0.22µF (a convenient value) and desired filter characteristics of: Q = 9.4, HO = 60, ωO = 2π(20Hz), then: RF1 = 5.6k, RF2 = 2.7k, RF3 = 680k. The amplitude, frequency and envelope response time of the output signal can be adjusted by simply changing the values of resistors RF1 to RF3 accordingly. This produces a high voltage, high quality 20Hz sine wave at the filter output with a peak amplitude of 95V. Differential amplitude and frequency characteristics are achieved by simply changing a few resistor values. The output of the LT1684 is internally current limited to a minimum of ±100mA peak, allowing this ring tone generation circuit to be used with loads up to 7 REN with no degradation of the output waveform.
