General Description
The Supertex HT0638 is an integrated electronic line switch
controllable from four logic-level inputs. These devices are
intended as a replacement for mechanical hook switches and
relays in telephones, answering machines, and similar telecom-
munications equipment. They switch the positive (Tip) side of the
telephone line using control inputs that are referenced to the
negative (Ring) side of the line. In the off state, it can hold-off 375
volts. In the on state, the series resistance is 15Ω maximum.
These devices provide adjustable current limiting via an external
sense resistor. Three of the control inputs are general purpose
and one is an override input that forces the switch to an off state
regardless of the state of the other inputs. This override input is
useful for ‘flash’ and pulse dialing purposes. Internal pull-up/
down resistors allow the inputs to be driven from single-ended
sources, push-pull sources, or left unconnected.
The HT0638 is powered from the phone line and are especially
useful in applications where external power is not available. Due
to their low quiescent current, both of these devices exceed the
on-hook resistance requirements of EIA-470-A.
