Product details
Overview
PEF 3304 HL V2.1 from Infineon Technologies is a 4-channel analog voice access IC optimized for VoIP residential gateways and ATAs, featuring integrated DSP with G.729/G.723.1/G.726 codec support, T.38 fax relay, and up to 128 ms line echo cancellation compliant with G.168-2002.
For engineers reviewing the PEF 3304 HL V2.1 datasheet, PEF 3304 HL V2.1 pinout, PEF 3304 HL V2.1 application, or PEF 3304 HL V2.1 equivalent, key selection criteria include channel count, SLIC compatibility (SLIC-DC, SLIC-E2), jitter buffer depth (up to 200 ms), AAL2/RTP packetization, and integrated caller-ID generation/detection.
Technical Context
The PEF 3304 HL V2.1 implements a dedicated voice-over-packet processing engine supporting both ATM AAL2 and IP-based RTP transport layers, with adaptive jitter buffering up to 200 ms and hardware-accelerated echo cancellation meeting G.168-2002 specifications for far-end echo suppression.
It integrates a programmable 4-channel CODEC compliant with ITU-T Q.552 and G.712, supports external SLIC interfacing via serial control bus, and embeds real-time voice compression/decompression for G.729A/B/E, G.723.1, G.726 ADPCM (16–40 kbit/s), and G.711 µ-law/A-law.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Channels | 4 independent POTS line interfaces with full-duplex PCM I/O |
| Echo Cancellation Tail | Up to 128 ms - meets G.168-2002 for far-end echo in DSL/FTTH access networks |
| Jitter Buffer Depth | Adaptive up to 200 ms - maintains voice quality under variable packet delay in VoIP routers |
| Vocoder Support | G.729A/B/E, G.723.1, G.726 (16/24/32/40 kbit/s), G.711 - enables multi-standard interoperability in ATAs |
| Fax Relay | T.38 compliant with V.17/V.21/V.27ter/V.29 - enables lossless fax transmission over IP without demodulation |
| Caller-ID | Integrated FSK/DTMF generator and detector - eliminates external tone decoder IC in residential gateways |
| SLIC Interface | Serial control bus compatible with SLIC-DC (PEF 4268), SLIC-E2 (PEB 4265-2), and TSLIC-S (PEB 4364) |
Pinout & Package
PEF 3304 HL V2.1 is housed in a PG-LBGA-144-1 package (144-pin low-profile ball grid array, 12 mm × 12 mm, 0.8 mm pitch), designed for high-density voice access board layouts with thermal pad grounding and symmetric I/O distribution.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDIO / VDDA / VDDD | Power supply domains | Separate 3.3 V I/O, 3.3 V analog, and 1.8 V digital core rails - enable noise isolation between voice ADC/DAC and DSP logic |
| PCM_TX / PCM_RX | Primary TDM interface | 8-bit or 16-bit PCM data lanes synchronized to FS and BCLK - directly connects to host controller or FPGA without glue logic |
| SLIC_SCLK / SLIC_SDAT / SLIC_CS | SLIC control bus | 3-wire serial interface for configuring external SLICs (e.g., PEF 4268) - supports dynamic line parameter adjustment per channel |
| RESET_N / CLK_IN | System initialization & timing | Active-low asynchronous reset and 24.576 MHz clock input - matches standard telephony sampling rate (8 kHz × 32 slots) |
| INT_N | Interrupt output | Open-drain status signal indicating DTMF detection, caller-ID event, or echo convergence - reduces polling overhead in embedded firmware |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Encapsulated Voice Processing | Offloads all real-time-critical tasks (codec, echo cancellation, jitter management) from host CPU - enables use of low-cost ARM7 or MIPS24K controllers |
| Advanced Integrated Test & Diagnostic Functions (AITDF) | Enables automated line testing (loopback, impedance, battery feed) per GR-909 - reduces field service time in CPE deployments |
| Programmable Ringing Generator | Internal balanced ringing up to 85 VRMS - eliminates need for external high-voltage transformer in ATA designs |
| Patent-Indemnified Vocoder Suite | G.729A/B/E and G.723.1 licensing covered by Infineon - removes royalty risk for volume VoIP gateway OEMs |
| Hardware-Based T.38 Fax Relay | Dedicated fax processing engine handles V.21/V.27ter modulation/demodulation in silicon - avoids software-based latency and packet loss sensitivity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 4-channel VoIP codec applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PEF 3304 EL2 | Same pinout and firmware compatibility; includes enhanced power management and extended temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) | Required for industrial-grade DSLAM line cards operating in uncontrolled environments | Select when extended thermal stability and lower standby current (<50 µA) are mandatory |
| PEB 3324 HL | 4-channel variant with higher DSP performance tier (supports simultaneous G.729 + G.723.1 + iLBC), no internal ringing generator | Suitable for VoIP-PBX systems requiring multi-vocoder concurrency but using external ringing transformers | Select when concurrent multi-standard vocoder operation is needed and external SLIC provides ringing |
Compared with PEF 3304 EL2, the HL version trades extended temperature rating for lower cost and standard industrial grade; compared with PEB 3324 HL, it offers integrated ringing and reduced DSP headroom-ideal for cost-sensitive residential gateways where single-vocoder operation suffices.
