Product details
Overview
LE58QL063HVCT from Zarlink Semiconductor is a quad-channel, low-voltage subscriber line audio-processing circuit (QLSLAC™) implementing codec, filter, and two-to-four-wire conversion functions for telecom line cards. It operates on 3.3 V CMOS with 5 V-tolerant digital inputs, supports pin-programmable PCM/MPI or GCI interface modes, delivers 2.048 Mbits/s data rate, and integrates four independent signal processing channels - enabling full BORSCHT functionality when paired with Zarlink SLIC devices in telephone switch line card applications.
For engineers reviewing the LE58QL063HVCT datasheet, LE58QL063HVCT pinout, LE58QL063HVCT application, or LE58QL063HVCT equivalent, this device requires attention to its dual-mode interface selection (PCM/MPI vs. GCI), time slot assigner configuration (up to 128 channels/port), programmable digital I/O debouncing, A-law/µ-law/linear coding support, and chopper clock compatibility (256 kHz or 293 kHz) with Zarlink SLICs.
Technical Context
The LE58QL063HVCT implements four fully independent digital signal processing channels, each with configurable transmit/receive gain, equalization, transhybrid balance, and analog impedance scaling. Its architecture uses digital filters derived from master clock (MCLK/PCLK) or DCL to perform band-limiting, frequency response correction, and speech coding per channel.
It supports two distinct operational modes: PCM/Microprocessor Interface (PCM/MPI) with standard TDM timing and General Circuit Interface (GCI) mode where control and PCM data share a single port at 2.048 MHz or 4.096 MHz. Clock slot selection, transmit edge polarity, and supervision signaling are software-configurable via MPI or GCI monitor channel commands.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-channel subscriber line audio-processing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LE58QL061BVC | 44-pin TQFP package; lacks GCI mode support; identical core functionality and register map. | Targeted at space-constrained but lower-channel-count line cards without GCI bus requirements. | Select LE58QL061BVC only if GCI interface and 64-pin layout flexibility are unnecessary. |
| ZL38004 | Single-channel, VoIP-optimized audio processor with integrated DSP; no SLIC interface or chopper clock. | Suitable for endpoint VoIP phones or conferencing units - not for central-office line card BORSCHT roles. | Choose ZL38004 for endpoint voice enhancement; avoid for telecom infrastructure requiring quad-channel SLIC coordination. |
Compared with LE58QL063HVCT, LE58QL061BVC offers identical audio processing but reduced I/O and no GCI capability, while ZL38004 targets endpoint voice quality rather than line-card BORSCHT implementation - making LE58QL063HVCT uniquely suited for scalable, software-configurable telecom infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the LE58QL063HVCT in telecom systems?
The LE58QL063HVCT performs quad-channel codec, digital filtering, and two-to-four-wire conversion - essential functions for BORSCHT implementation in telephone line cards. It digitizes analog voice signals into PCM format, applies programmable gain and equalization, and interfaces directly with Zarlink SLIC devices to manage battery feed, overvoltage protection, ringing, supervision, coding, and hybrid functions.
Does the LE58QL063HVCT support both A-law and µ-law companding?
Yes, the LE58QL063HVCT supports A-law, µ-law, and linear PCM coding formats via software configuration. This allows seamless integration into ETSI (A-law) and North American (µ-law) telephony networks without hardware changes, and the selection is made per-channel through the operating conditions register.
How does the LE58QL063HVCT handle clocking in GCI versus PCM/MPI mode?
In PCM/MPI mode, the LE58QL063HVCT uses PCLK for bit timing and MCLK for internal filtering; in GCI mode, it uses DCL (2.048 or 4.096 MHz) as the sole clock source for both data and control. The GCI mode consolidates control and PCM data onto one port, eliminating separate frame sync and control lines required in PCM/MPI.
Can the LE58QL063HVCT be used with non-Zarlink SLIC devices?
The LE58QL063HVCT is optimized for use with Zarlink SLIC devices - especially regarding chopper clock generation (256/293 kHz) and SLIC I/O register mapping. While analog interface pins are standard, full BORSCHT functionality (e.g., supervision, ringing control) requires compatible SLIC register sets; interoperability with third-party SLICs must be validated per design.
What diagnostic capabilities does the LE58QL063HVCT provide for production testing?
The LE58QL063HVCT includes built-in test modes: digital loopback, tone generation (for analog path verification), and real-time data register access via µP interface. These features enable comprehensive in-circuit testing of transmit/receive paths, clock integrity, and interrupt response - reducing reliance on external test equipment during manufacturing.
