Tip
The Ring and Tip signals connect the modem to the telephone line. FCC Part 68
Rules require a 1500 volt isolation barrier between the telephone line and all other
circuits. This isolation must be preserved throughout the system.
The telephone company places a DC “Battery” voltage across Tip and Ring on public
switched telephone lines. The XE5690H operates regardless of the polarity of this
voltage. The “Battery” voltage drives up to 100 milliampere of DC loop current.
UL60950 requires minimum creepage and clearances distances between the Tip and
Ring and all other circuits. Clearance is the shortest distance between conductive
circuits; creepage is the distance between conductive points along the surface

DESCRIPTION
3
/DSR
/DSR is an active low output from the modem and is forced to the active condition.
4
/DCD
/DCD is an active low output from the modem. An active /DCD indicates the
presence of a valid carrier signal. The AT&C command controls when the XE5690H
asserts /DCD.
5
/DTR
/DTR is an active low input to the modem. An active /DTR signals the terminal is
available for communications. The AT&D command determines how the modem
interprets activity on /DTR.
6
/RI
The /RI signal reports on the presence of an incoming ring signal. When a ring occurs
across Tip and Ring, the /RI output goes low and toggles with the cadence of the ring
signal.
7
SPKR
SPKR provides a Pulse Width Modulated version of the signal on Tip and Ring
allowing connection of a speaker to the modem to monitor modem operations. The
recommended speaker circuit is shown on Page 9 of this data sheet. The signal on
SPKR is controlled by the ATL and ATM commands.
8
Ground
Ground provides the reference voltage for all host interface signals.
9
/TXD
/TXD provides the path for transmitted data and modem commands to be passed
from the host controller to the modem.
10
/RXD
/RXD provides the path for received data and modem responses to be sent from the
modem to the host controller.
11
/RESET
/RESET is an active low input which initiates a modem hardware reset. /RESET
must be active for a minimum of 100 milliseconds for a proper modem reset
sequence. No external reset is required; if none is used the RESET signal should be
left open.
12
/CTS
/CTS is an active low output from the modem. When hardware flow control is set,
the modem asserts /CTS to indicate that it can accept data from the terminal
equipment on /TXD.
13
/INT
/INT provides an active low hardware interrupt signal from the XE5690H. The
operation of this interrupt pin is programmable using the modem’s register U70.
14
VCC
VCC provides 3.3 volt power to the modem.
15
/RTS
/RTS is an active low input to the modem. When hardware flow control is set, an
active /RTS indicates to the modem that the host has data to send.

Notes:
1 Capacitors, C1 and C2, may be required for EMI filtering in your system. Without these components
you may experience unintended radiation when the telephone cable is attached. C1 and C2 are high-
voltage capacitors. We recommend the Novocap ES2211N681K502NXTM . This 680 pfd, 5000 volt
capacitor will direct the high frequency harmonics to the system ground.

XE5690H Boot Command
The XE5690H allows a default command string to be automatically loaded into the modem on power-up or
modem reset. A series of commands loads the default command string in Hex form into the modem’s
EEPROM. The EEPROM has 256 bytes available for command storage.
The sequence to load the default commands into EEPROM must begin with the Boot command and end
with a double carriage return. All commands are loaded into the EEPROM in Hex form beginning with
address M0000. Up to 8 addresses may be loaded with each command in the sequence.
The following example uses a typical configuration for an embedded application. ATE0 disables command
echo; ATQ1 disabled modem responses, and ATS0=1 sets the modem to automatically answer on the first
ring. This sequence is loaded into the modem EEPROM with the Boot command using the command
sequence below. This places the modem into the desired configuration each time power is applied or the
modem is reset
