dtmfout problem

[mister_e]

Any real circuit and code of that? Are you using 20MHz crystal?

The noise is always there?

Hi,

From the data I have here,...

I see a damping 680 Ohm res. on the Pic side of the line trafo. ( // with the winding !!! )

On the line side :

in series with the primary :

750 Ohms 2W // 1µF // TPJ ( to limit current to ~ 35 mA )

Hi,
I am using 20Mz
I think the problem is more hardware than software..

I think I might got the probe switch to 10x instead of 1x.. that would explain the 40v. I will check it once I get home...
if so I guess I would have would have something like 3.7v output peaks on the pin.

[lerameur]

Ok , the scoipe was set at 100x. now I read 4v at the output, but still a lot of noise after the filter, and only dials 50% of the times

Well, the PBP manual does say that any 'sound' output from the PIC, being 1-bit analog, is going to be 'noisy', a lot of harmonic content. And I would think that even if it's filtered well, it would still have a load of 'noise' in it. A low-pass 'brick wall' filter, with a steep 'slope/cutoff', with the -3db point set just above your highest frequency might handle that.
I guess I'm not really sure. I haven't relied on the PIC to do much sound (other than moving MP3 data back and forth for a player).

I was initially thinking of going with a specialized DTMF chip. They are hard to get around here
