will set both the low-frequency
termination and receive gain for the complex case. In
the complex case, additional high-frequency compen-
sation, via C
N
, R
N1
, and R
N2
, is needed for the return
loss characteristic. For resistive termination, C
N
, R

,
and R
N2
are not used and R
CVN
is tied to ground and a
resistor.
Determine the receive gain, G
RCV
, taking into account
the impedance transformation in a manner similar to
transmit gain.

There is an input offset voltage associated with nodes

CVN
, R
CVP
. To minimize the effect of the mismatch of
this voltage at T/R, the equivalent resistance to ac
ground at R
CVN
should be approximately equal to that
at R

. Refer to Figure 22 (schematic with dc blocking
capacitors). To meet this requirement, R

If a +5 V only codec such as an Agere T8503 is used,
dc blocking capacitors must be added as shown in
Figure 22. This is because the codec is referenced to
+2.5 V and the SLIC to ground. With the ac coupling, a
dc bias at T/R is eliminated and power associated with
this bias is not consumed.
