Abstract
A control device includes a circuit operable to sense an analog input voltage dependent on a line current flowing via a communication line of a terminal generate an analog difference voltage in a constant line current operation based on a difference between the sensed analog input voltage and an analog feedback voltage which depends on an adjustable nominal direct-current value and filter a sequence of control error values from a sequence of digital difference voltage values converted from the generated analog difference voltage. The circuit is further operable to convert a control value generated from the sequence of control error values in the constant line current operation to an analog direct voltage for supplying the terminal and convert the nominal direct-current value into the analog feedback voltage in the constant line current operation.
