Abstract

See full text

A floating battery feed circuit employs a single primary winding, a pulse width control circuit and a peak detector for providing a controlled current to a subscriber loop. The amplitude of the controlled current is determined by the loop resistance. A comparator circuit has one input connected to the output of a peak detector via a breakdown diode. The second comparator input is connected to a reference voltage. When the voltage from the breakdown diode exceeds a predetermined value the comparator provides an 0 output to indicate an on-hook state. For a peak detector output voltage below said predetermined value, the comparator provides a +5 volt output indicating an off-hook state.
