Transhybrid Balance G(4-4)
Transhybrid balance is a measure of how well the input
signal is canceled (that being received by the SLIC) from the
transmit signal (that being transmitted from the SLIC to the
CODEC). Without this function, voice communication would
be difficult because of the echo.
The signals at V
PWRO+
and V
TX
(Figure 3) are opposite in
phase. Transhybrid balance is achieved by summing two
signals that are equal in magnitude and opposite in phase
into the GSX amplifier.
Transhybrid balance is achieved by summing the PWRO+
signal with the output signal from the UniSLIC14 when
proper gain adjustments are made to match V
PWRO+
and
V
TX
magnitudes.
For discussion purpose, the GSX amplifier is redrawn with
the external resistors in Figure 4.

Transhybrid balance is achieved by adjusting the magnitude

so their equal to each other.
Reference Design of the UniSLIC14 and
the TCM38C17 With a 600
Load
The design criteria is as follows:
4-wire to 2-wire gain (VP
CMIN
to V
2W
) equal 0dB
2-wire to 4-wire gain (V
2W
to VP
CMOUT
) equal 0dB
Two Wire Return Loss greater than -30dB (200Hz to
4kHz)
Rp = 30
Figure 5 gives the reference design using the Intersil
UniSLIC14 and the Texas Instruments TCM38C17 Quad
Combo. Also shown in Figure 5 are the voltage levels at
specific points in the circuit.
Impedance Matching
The 2-wire impedance is matched to the line impedance Z
0
using Equation 1, repeated here in Equation 24.
For a line impedance of 600
, Z
T
equals:

The closest standard value for Z

Transhybrid Balance (Z
L
= 600
)
The internal GSX amplifier of the TCM38C17 is used to
perform the transhybrid balance function. Transhybrid
balance is achieved by summing two signals that are equal
in magnitude and opposite in phase into the GSX amplifier.
From Equation 23, repeated here in Equation 26, a Transmit
Gain (V
PCMOUT
/ V
2W
) of one is achieved if we make

The TCM38C17 receive gain is programmed to 1.0 by
maximizing R

resistor values (Figure 2).
The gain from PWRO+/V
