GL6840A are monolithic integrated circuits designed
to replace the mechanical bell in telephone sets,
in connection with an electro acoustical converter.
The device can drive either directly a piezo ceramic
converter(buzzer) or a small loudspeaker. In this
case a transformer is needed. The two tone frequencies generated are switched by an internal oscillator
in a fast sequence and made audible across output
amplifiers in the transducer, both tone frequencies
and switching frequency can be externally adjusted.
The supply voltage is obtained from the AC rings
signal and the circuit is designed so that noise on the
line or variations on the ringing signal cannot affect
the correct operation of the devices.
The output bridge configuration allows to use a high
impedance transducer with acoustical results much
better than in a single ended configuration. The two
outputs can also be connected independently to
different converters or actuators(acoustical, opto and
logic)
