1.3 TECHNICAL OVERVIEW
1.3.1 General Description
Modem operation, including dialing, call progress, telephone line interface, telephone handset interface, voice/speakerphone
interface, and host interface functions are supported and controlled through the V.250, V.251, and V.253-compatible
command set.
The modem hardware connects to the host processor via a PCI/MiniPCI/CardBus bus interface. The OEM adds a crystal
circuit, EEPROM, DIB and LSD power rectifier and filter components, telephone line interface, optional telephone handset
interface, optional voice/speakerphone interface, and other supporting discrete components as required by the modem model
and the application to complete the system.
1.3.2 Host Modem Software
The host modem software performs the following tasks:
1. General modem control, which includes command sets, fax Class 1, TAM, voice/speakerphone, error correction, data
compression, and operating system interface functions.
2. Modem data pump (MDP) control. Binary DSP executable code controlling MDP operation is downloaded as required
during operation. Signal processing, including data and facsimile modulation and demodulation, as well as voice sample
formatting, is performed in the hardware DSP.
3. SmartDAA control, which includes HSD SmartDAA Interface control, LSD configuration and control, telephone line
interface parameter control, and telephone line impedance control.
Configurations of the modem software are provided to support modem models listed in Table 1-1.
1.3.3 Operating Modes
Data/Fax Modes
In V.90/K56flex data modem mode, the modem can receive data from a digital source using a V.90- or K56flex-compatible
central site modem at line speeds up to 56 kbps. Asymmetrical data transmission supports sending data at line speeds up to
V.34 rates. This mode can fallback to full-duplex V.34 mode, and to lower rates, as dictated by line conditions.
In V.34 data modem mode, the modem can operate in 2-wire, full-duplex, asynchronous modes at line rates up to 33.6 kbps.
Data modem modes perform complete handshake and data rate negotiations. Using V.34 modulation to optimize modem
configuration for line conditions, the modem can connect at the highest data rate that the channel can support from 33600
bps down to 2400 bps with automatic fallback. Automode operation in V.34 is provided in accordance with PN3320 and in
V.32 bis in accordance with PN2330. All tone and pattern detection functions required by the applicable ITU or Bell standard
are supported.
In V.32 bis data modem mode, the modem can operate at line speeds up to 14.4 kbps.
