Abstract
A communication device and an echo cancellation method are provided. A digital echo canceller is coupled to a transmitting circuit and a receiving circuit to generate an echo energy indicator according to a digital output signal and a digital input signal. A transceiving front-end circuit receives the analog output signal and generates a hybrid interface signal. A hybrid fine-tune circuit generates a first and a second capacitance calibration signals according to the echo energy indicator. An analog echo cancellation circuit receives the first and second capacitance calibration signals, and includes a first and a second variable capacitors controlled by the first capacitance calibration signal and a third and a fourth variable capacitors controlled by the second capacitance calibration signal. The analog echo cancellation circuit receives the analog output signal and the hybrid interface signal, and generates the analog input signal according to the first and second capacitance calibration signals.
