HC-55564/883
Continuously Variable Slope
Delta-Modulator (CVSD)
Description
The HC-55564/883 is a half duplex modulator/demodulator
CMOS intergrated circuit used to convert voice signals into
serial NRZ digital data and to reconvert that data into voice.
The conversion is by delta-modulation, using the
Continuously Variable Slope (CVSD) method of modulation/
demodulation.
While the signals are compatible with other CVSD circuits,
the internal design is unique. The analog loop filters have
been replaced by very low power digital filters which require
no external timing components. This approach allows
inclusion of many desirable features which would be difficult
to implement using other approaches.
The fundamental advantages of delta-modulation, along with
its simplicity and serial data format, provide an efficient (low
data rate/low memory requirements) method for voice
digitization. The device may be easily configured with the
National TP3040 PCM/CVSD filter.
The HC-55564/883 is usable from 9k bits/sec to above
64kbps. For more applications information, see Application
Notes AN576 and AN607.

DESCRIPTION
Positive Supply Voltage. Voltage range is +3.2V to +6.0V.
Analog Ground connection to D/A ladders and comparator.
Audio Out recovered from 10-bit DAC. May be used as side tone at the transmitter. Presents
approximately 75kΩ source with DC offset of V
DD
/2. Within
±2dB
of Audio Input. Should be exter-
nally AC coupled.
Automatic Gain Control output. A logic low level will appear at this output when the recovered
signal excursion reaches one-half of full scale value. In each half cycle full scale is V
DD
/2. The
mark-space ratio is proportional to the average signal level.
Audio Input to comparator. Should be externally AC coupled. Presents approximately 200kΩ in
series with V
DD
/2.
No internal connection is made to these pins.

Clock
Logic ground. 0V reference for all logic inputs and outputs.
Sampling rate clock. In the decode mode, must be synchronized with the digital input data such
that the data is valid at the positive clock transition. In the encode mode, the digital data is clocked
out on the negative going clock transition. The clock rate equals the data rate.
A single CVSD can provide half-duplex operation. The encode or decode function is selected by the
logic level applied to this input. A low level selects the encode mode, a high level the decode mode.
Alternate Plain Text input. Activating this input caused a digital quieting pattern to be transmitted, how-
ever; internally the CVSD is still functional and a signal is still available at the A
OUT
port. Active low.
Input for the received digital NRZ data.
Force Zero input. Activating this input resets the internal logic and forces the digital output and the
recovered audio output into the “quieting” condition. An alternating 1-0 pattern appears at the
digital output at 1/2 the clock rate. When this is decoded by a receive CVSD, a 10mV
P-P
inaudible
signal appears at audio output. Active low.
Output for transmitted digital NRZ data.

NOTES:
1. There is one NRZ (Non-Return Zero) data bit per clock period. Data is clocked out on the negative clock edge. Data is clocked into the
CVSD on the positive going edge (see Figure 2). Clock may be run at less than 9kbps.
2. Logic inputs are CMOS compatible at supply voltage and are diode protected. Digital data input is NRZ at clock rate.
3. Logic outputs are CMOS compatible at supply voltage and will withstand short-circuits to V
DD
or ground; however, the short circuit duty
cycle must not exceed 5% in order to maintain an acceptable current density level. Digital data output is NRZ and changes with negative
clock transitions. Each output will drive one LS TTL loads.
4. Recommended voice input range for best voice performance. Should be externally AC coupled.
5. May be used for side-tone in encode mode. Should be externally AC coupled.
6. Presents series impedance with audio signal. Zero signal reference is approximately V
DD
/2. Varies with audio input level by
±2dB.
7. The minimum audio output voltage change that can be produced by the internal DAC.
8. The “quieting” pattern or idle-channel audio output steps at 1/2 the bit rate, changing state on negative clock transitions.
9. A logic “0” will appear at the AGC output pin when the recovered signal reaches one-half of full-scale value (positive or negative), i.e. at
V
DD
/2
±25%
of V
DD
.
10. The recovered signal will be clamped, and the computation will be inhibited, when the recovered signal reaches three-quarters of full-
scale value, and will unclamp when it falls below this value (positive or negative).
11. No load condition measured from audio in to audio out.
12. The parameters listed in this table are controlled via design or process parameters and are not directly tested. These parameters are
characterized upon initial design release and upon design changes which would affect these characteristics.
13. The minimum audio input voltage above which encoding is guaranteed to take place.
