Descript io n
The Mitel MH88610 Subscriber Line Interface Circuit
provides a complete interface between a switching
system and a subscriber loop. Functions provided
include battery feed and ringing feed to the
subscriber line, 2-Wire to 4-Wire hybrid interfacing,
constant current, loop length and dial pulse
detection. The device is fabricated using thick film
hybrid technology in a 20-pin single in-line package.

Preliminary Information MH88610
Functional Description
The MH88610 performs a transformerless 2-wire to
4-wire conversion of the analog signal. The 2-wire
circuit is the balanced line going to the subscriber
loop, while the 4-wire circuit is the audio signal going
to an from devices such as the voice codec or
switching circuit. The SLIC also provides two status
signals. switch hook (SHK
) and loop length (Loop).
The Loop signal is an analog voltage which is
proportional to the loop length and the SHK
goes low
when the telephone set is off-hook.
Constant Current Feed
The MH88610 employs a complex feedback circuit to
supply a constant feed current to the line. This is
done by sensing the sum of the voltages across the
internal feed resistors and comparing it to an input
reference voltage (VRef) that determines the
constant feed current. This gives the loop current as:
I
= 25 - (VR e f) mA (+2 mA)
Loop

Switch Hook De tect io n
been detected an external circuit will deactivate the
relay (K1) to disconnect the ringing voltage from pin
11 and reconnect to pin 15. At that time the SLIC will
revert to constant current feed operation.
For applications requiring Dial Pulse Detection the
Capacitor connection to ground should be controlled
such that the capacitor is only connected during
ringing.
During off-hook conditions (closed loop), the
capacitor should be switched out. This can be
performed using a transistor, relay or system drive
output of a codec. Applying GNDA to the Ring Trip
Filter Control pin will switch in the filter, whilst
removing GNDA, (with the switch in a tristate
condition), will switch out the filter.
For applications using DTMF signalling, the
capacitor can be permanently connected to ground.
Current Limit
The Tip or Ring may accidentally short to ground. In
such a case, current will only flow through the feed
resistor. This high current will be sensed and
reduced by the current limit circuit to a lower value to
protect the internal circuitry.
When the DC current exceeds an internal threshold
level, the switch hook (SHK
resistance is so high that V
) will go low. If the loop
can no longer supply
Bat
the required amount of loop current as determined
by constant current supply circuit, the output of the
switch hook (SHK
) will go high impedance (open
collector output) to indicate that the loop resistance
is too high and the line is on hook.
Ringing And Ring Trip Detection
In Figure 3 a ringing signal (e.g., 90Vrms=+/-48Vdc)
is applied to the line by disconnecting pin 15 (RV)
from pin 11(RF), and connecting the ringing voltage
at pin 11 (RF) by use of the relay K1.
The SLIC can detect an off-hook condition during
ringing but there is a large AC component which
must be filtered out to give a true off-hook condition
at S H K
A 1.0µF capacitor connected from pin 19 (CAP) to
ground will provide adequate attenuation when
ringing is applied. Once an off-hook condition has
