FEATURES
❏ 350V breakdown voltage ❏ 18Ω maximum switch resistance ❏ Current limiting protection ❏ Operates at 2.0V input GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Supertex HT18LG and HT19LG are electronic line switch circuits that replace the mechanical hook switch contact or a discrete hook switch in a telephone handset or modem. They switch the positive side of the telephone line using control inputs that are referenced to the negative side of the line. In the off state, they can withstand 350V on the positive input. In the on state their series resistances are 18Ω maximum. The devices provide current limiting determined by an external resistor. There are three control inputs. The HKS pin turns on the hook switch when connected to the TPG pin. This can be accomplished by using a mechanical switch which closes when the handset is physically off-hook. The LS pin allows a logic signal to turn on the hook switch. The dial pulse, Pin 6, is used to turn the hook switch off for pulse dialing. For Application...
