Broadcom CFAX34

Description

The LSI CFAXxx chip set is a two-chip solution consisting of an LSI CFAXxx modem controller and a CSP1040 DAA.

The CFAXxx devices support FAX modes with rates up to 33.6 kbits/s and include support for ECM using an on-chip 64 Kbyte buffer. The CFAX device is available in a 48-pin TQFP suitable for most applications. In this package, the internal ARM7 is running from the on-chip ROM. For code development and for applications where customized code is required, the CFAX device is also offered in a 100 FSBGA package.Figure 2 shows a typical application using a CFAX34 modem controller along with a CSP1040 silicon DAA to add FAX capability to a system.All CFAX devices support a PWM output for low-cost audio and an optional T38 audio codec for applications requiring a digitally connected handset or microphone and speaker for telephone answering machine or speakerphone applications. The T38 codec provides both single-ended and differential inputs and outputs tailored for use with mic/speaker and handsets.
