Xecom's XE3386L combines high-speed data and
Group III send/receive fax in a compact component.
Xecom designed the XE3386L to be embedded by OEM
designers. Xecom also offers pin compatible 2400 BPS
14,400 BPS and 56 KBPS alternatives to the XE3386L
for applications with other date rate requirements.
The XE3386L is not a modem chip but a complete
modem including the telephone interface integrated into
a compact module. It provides user transferable FCC
Part 68 registration and can connect directly to the
telephone line through an RJ11 jack. The modem
connects to the host through a TTL level serial interface.
The XE3386L also includes MNP2-4, MNP10 and
V.42 error control and MNP5 and V.42bis data
compression to provide an error free connection with the
greatest possible data throughput rate.

XE3386L Pin Descriptions
PINNAMEDESCRIPTION
1RingRing provides half of the two-wire connection to the telephone network, RJ-11 Pin 4.
A 1500 volt barrier isolates Ring from all other circuits. This isolation must be preserved throughout the system. The battery voltage on Ring may be positive or negative
with respect to Tip.
2TipTip provides half of the two-wire connection to the telephone network, RJ-11 Pin 3. A
1500 volt barrier isolates Tip from all other circuits. This isolation must be preserved
throughout the system. The battery voltage on Tip may be positive or negative with respect to Ring.
3, 4Not UsedNo Connection should be made to these pins.
5SPKSPK provides the audio output to a speaker. Speaker output is controlled by the ATL
and ATM commands. The input impedance to the speaker driver must be greater than
300 ohms.
6-9N/CNo Connection
10TXDTXD provides serial data input from the host. A logic high represents a "Mark" and a
low represents a "Space".
11RXDRXD provides serial data output to the host. A logic high represents a "Mark" and a
low represents a "Space".
12/V-DThe Voice-Data output can be used to drive an external relay for switching between the
modem and handset connected to the same telephone line.
13/DTRData Terminal Ready is an active low input to the modem. The AT&D command sets
the function of DTR.
14/DSRData Set Ready is an active low output from the modem. Its operation is determined by
the AT&S command.
15/RIRing Indicator is an active low output which marks the presence of a ring on the line.
16/CTSThe XE3386L uses Clear to Send for hardware flow control. With hardware flow con-
trol active the modem raises \CTS to signal the host that the modem's transmit data
buffer is nearly full. When the buffer empties, the modem reactivates CTS.
17/DCDData Carrier Detect goes low to indicate receipt of a valid incoming carrier. The
AT&C1 command enables the carrier detect function.
18N/CNo Connection
19VCCVCC provides the +5 volt power required by the modem.
20GNDGround provides the common reference for the XE3386L.
21RSTThis active high input causes a hardware reset in the XE3386L. The reset pulse must be held
high for at least 10 milliseconds to correctly reset the modem.
22RTSThe modem uses Request to Send for hardware flow control. The modem stops sending data to
the host when the hosts raises /RTS. The modem resumes transferring data to the host when the
