Abstract
A subscriber line interface circuit is provided for a telephone system for interconnecting a two-wire telephone channel with a four-wire telephone channel. The circuit includes a pair of power amplifiers employing complementary circuitry and being coupled in complementary fashion to the two-wire channel so as to provide for both DC electrical excitation to the two-wire channel, as well as providing for an impedance match over the voice frequency spectrum, thereby reducing power dissipation while improving the coupling of voice and/or data signals. The presence of any noise on power line is rejected by use of transistor biasing circuits and by use of feedback circuitry. Both resistive and capacitive feedback branches are provided for the impedance matching.
