Austria Mikro Systeme International AG
Single Chip 2-Wire Intercom
CMOS Integrated Circuit
General Description
The AS2507 is a CMOS integrated circuit that
contains all the functions needed to build a 2-
wire intercom network.
The device incorporates 2/4-wire conversion
(hybrid), soft clipping for high speech quality,
FSK modem and a simple interface to a
microcontroller.
The signalling mode is selectable between
FSK modulation and burst mode.
The low standby current (typ. 2 mA) allows
several devices to listen to the 2-wire line.
The speech circuit is designed for compatibility
with commonly used handset (150Ω earpiece
and electret microphone) with receive gain of
-6 dB and transmit gain of 32 dB (relative to
line).
Key Features

parallel operation of up to 25 terminals on a
bus pair with central supply
Parallel operation of up to 70 terminals if
supplied locally
Controllable via simple µC interface
Very few external components
Application
Entrance telephone system, intercom and data
transmission, alarm systems, toy phone
