Abstract
A telephone set line circuit ringing current injection device having a hybrid circuit in which each feed wire is connected in series with a resistor, and a stage consisting of a diode connected in parallel with the collector-to-emitter circuit of a transistor. The cathode of one diode is connected to the collector of the transistor on the side of one of the feed wires, the anode of the other diode and the emitter of the other transistor are connected to the other wire.
Claims3
A telephone set line circuit ringing current injection device comprising a hybrid circuit having feeding terminals connected to a ringing current generator, and outputs connected to a subscriber's lines;
- said hybrid circuit comprises a pair of power transistors connected between said feeding terminals and said outputs;
- each power transistor including a diode connected across its collector-to-emitter path with the emitter being connected to the anode of the diode;
- and a resistor connected in series with the output of the power transistor and one of said outputs;
- a control flip-flop having an output coupled to the bases of said power transistors, said flip-flop having a clock input which is connected to a central unit for receiving a synchronization signal for validating a ringing order when the voltage on a subscriber's line is on hook or zero;
- said control flip-flop's clock input being connected to said central unit for receiving a ringing order, and said control flip-flop having a reset input connected to an output of a line loop detector for resetting said flip-flop when the receiver of the called telephone set is off hook.
