Frequently Asked Questions

What companding law and bit depth does the TCM320AC37CDW support for voice encoding?

The TCM320AC37CDW implements A-Law companding with 13-bit linear coding, which is the standard used in European and international telephony. This produces 8-bit PCM output at 64 kbps per channel, meeting ITU-T G.711 requirements for voice-band transmission in PBX and VoIP gateway applications.

Can the TCM320AC37CDW operate in both synchronous and asynchronous PCM clock modes?

Yes, the TCM320AC37CDW supports both synchronous and asynchronous operating modes, giving engineers flexibility when interfacing with different PCM backplane or DSP clock sources. This dual-mode capability reduces the need for external clock recovery circuits in mixed-timing telecom line card designs.

For a PBX line card design, what gain tolerance does the TCM320AC37CDW's internal filter provide?

The internal filter in the TCM320AC37CDW maintains a maximum gain tolerance of 1 dB across the voice band, ensuring consistent signal levels in multi-channel PBX line cards. This precision reduces the need for external trimming components, simplifying board design and lowering BOM cost.

What is the package and operating temperature range of the TCM320AC37CDW, and how does it affect PCB assembly?

The TCM320AC37CDW comes in a 20-pin SOIC (PDSO-G20) package with a plastic/epoxy body, rated from 0°C to 70°C. The wide 20-pin pitch of the SOIC makes it compatible with standard SMT reflow assembly, simplifying manufacturing compared to fine-pitch alternatives in commercial telecom equipment.
