The VE8901 chipset is a highly integrated, low-cost, 1FXO chipset which provides an interface to the Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN). The VE8901 chipset utilizes patented low value PCB capacitors, resulting in best in class DAA performance in both common mode and RF immunity. The VE8901 chipset performs all the necessary voice telephony functions, from sensing the high voltage line to DSP codec functions. All AC, DC, and signaling parameters are fully programmable via the Microprocessor Interface (MPI).The chipset can be programmed in software to meet worldwide requirements with a single hardware design. The VE8901 chipset is a member of the VE890 Series, which also features the VE8910 (1FXS), VE8911 (1FXS + 1FXO) and the VE8921 (2FXS + 1FXO). Designers can mix multiple members of the VE890 Series or VE880 Series and have a solution with the correct number of FXS and FXO interfaces. Product variants are easily supported due to the modularity in the hardware builidng blocks as well as a common software API.
