Abstract

A current mode subscriber line interface circuit (SLIC) for telephone system in which AC and De impedances for tip and ring connections of the SLIC are separately set. A DC filter separates the DC and AC components of tip and ring currents, and a current amplifier amplifies the AC components separately from the DC components. A pair of resistors set the AC impedance value, and also may be used to set SLIC four-wire to two-wire gain separately from SLIC two-wire to four-wire gain.
