DESCRIPTION
LS1240A is a mon olith ic in tegrated circ uit de signed
to replace the mechanical bell in telephone sets in
connection with an electro-acoustical converter. It
can drive directly a piezoceramic converter (buzzer)or a dynam ic loudspe ak er .
The output current capability of LS1240A is higher
than standard ringer. For driving a dynamic loudspeaker LS 124 0A c an simply us e a dec oupling capacitor, thus elim inating the us ual trans f or m er .
No curre nt limitation is provided on the outpu t stage
of LS1240A, so a minimum load DC of 50 Ω is adviced, in s er ies with a proper c apac itor.
The two tone frequencies generated are switched
by an inte rnal oscillator in a fas t sequence and m ade
audible across an output amplifier in the loudspeaker, both tone frequencies and the switching
frequency c an be externally adj us t ed.

The suppl y voltage is obtained from the A C ring signal and the circuit is designed so that noise on the
line or variations of the ringing signal cannot affect
correct operation of the device.
