Abstract:
A telephone interfacing circuit. A digital bandpass filter transmits a continuous pulse stream in response to a ringing signal which has a frequency in the normal range of voice signals. A high frequency reference pulse source clocks a first counter to determine a final interval. Then a second counter establishes a second interval corresponding to the bandwidth. During this interval, a gate can pass incoming signals in the pass band. Another circuit discriminates a continuous pulse stream to actuate a ringing signal oscillator for transmitting a ringing signal at another frequency.
