Product details
Overview
PEF 3394 HL V2.2 from Infineon Technologies is a 4-channel analog voice access IC (VINETIC family) designed for residential gateways, VoIP routers, and ATAs. It integrates voice codec, DSP-based packet processing (AAL2/RTP), G.726 ADPCM, T.38 fax relay, and line echo cancellation with up to 128 ms tail support per channel.
For engineers reviewing the PEF 3394 HL V2.2 datasheet, PEF 3394 HL V2.2 pinout, PEF 3394 HL V2.2 application, or PEF 3394 HL V2.2 equivalent, this device delivers full VoIP voice processing in a single chip - including jitter buffering (up to 200 ms), integrated DTMF receiver, caller-ID generation/detection, and programmable ringing (85 VRMS balanced).
Technical Context
The PEF 3394 HL V2.2 implements a dedicated voice-processing DSP core supporting simultaneous multi-codec operation (G.726 at 16/24/32/40 kbit/s, G.711, and iLBC in preparation) and real-time AAL2/RTP packetization. It embeds hardware-accelerated line echo cancellation compliant with G.168-2002 and supports adaptive jitter buffering up to 200 ms.
It interfaces directly with Infineon SLIC devices (e.g., PEB 4266, PEF 4268) via standardized digital interface, enabling full analog front-end control - including programmable AC/DC line characteristics, metering pulse generation (2.5 VRMS), and FSK/DTMF caller-ID signaling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Analog Channels | 4 independent voice channels - enables single-chip support for 4-line residential gateway or ATA. |
| Voice Codecs | G.726 ADPCM (16/24/32/40 kbit/s), G.711 μ-law/A-law, iLBC (in preparation) - provides flexible compression for bandwidth-constrained packet networks. |
| Echo Cancellation | Up to 128 ms tail length, compliant with G.168-2002 - eliminates near- and far-end echo in hybrid telephone interfaces. |
| Jitter Buffer | Adaptive, up to 200 ms - dynamically compensates for network packet delay variation to preserve voice quality. |
| Fax Support | T.38 Fax Relay with V.17/V.21/V.27ter/V.29 modulation - enables interoperable fax transmission over IP without demodulation. |
| Ringing Voltage | Programmable internal balanced ringing up to 85 VRMS - meets global telephony line requirements without external transformer. |
| DTMF & Caller-ID | Integrated DTMF receiver + FSK/DTMF caller-ID generator/detector - eliminates need for external tone detection or signaling ICs. |
Pinout & Package
PEF 3394 HL V2.2 is housed in a PG-LBGA-176-3 package (176-pin low-profile ball grid array, 15 mm × 15 mm, 0.8 mm pitch). The package supports high-density PCB layout and thermal dissipation required for multi-channel voice processing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CLKIN / CLKOUT | Master clock input/output | Accepts 16.384 MHz crystal or external clock; drives SLIC and system timing synchronization. |
| SDATA_IN / SDATA_OUT | Serial data interface | Time-division multiplexed (TDM) interface to SLIC devices - carries digitized voice samples and control frames. |
| RESET_N | Active-low reset input | Hardware-initiated cold reset; asserts internal state machines and firmware reload sequence. |
| INT_N | Interrupt output | Signals event completion (e.g., DTMF detection, caller-ID frame received, echo convergence) to host processor. |
| VDDA / VSSA | Analog power supply/ground | Separate 3.3 V analog domain - isolates noise-sensitive codec and SLIC interface from digital logic. |
| GPIO[7:0] | General-purpose I/O | Configurable as inputs/outputs for LED control, hook-switch sensing, or external relay drivers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Encapsulated Voice Processing | Offloads all real-time-critical tasks (codec, echo cancellation, packetization) from host CPU - reduces host processing load and latency. |
| AITDF Line Testing | Enables automated loop resistance, capacitance, and fault diagnostics per line - supports GR-909-compliant remote maintenance. |
| Programmable Ringing | Generates balanced 85 VRMS or unbalanced 50 VRMS ringing signals internally - eliminates external ringing transformers and simplifies BOM. |
| SLIC Compatibility | Direct interface with Infineon SLIC-P, SLIC-E2, SLIC-S2, TSLIC-E, and SLIC-DC families - ensures plug-and-play analog front-end integration. |
| Vocoder Patent Indemnification | Infineon provides legal coverage for G.723.1, G.729 A/B/E, and G.728 implementations - mitigates licensing risk for OEM VoIP product deployment. |

FAQ
What SLIC devices are compatible with PEF 3394 HL V2.2?
PEF 3394 HL V2.2 is hardware- and software-compatible with Infineon's SLIC-P (PEB 4266), SLIC-E2 (PEB 4265-2), SLIC-S2 (PEB 4264-2), TSLIC-E (PEB 4365), and SLIC-DC (PEF 4268). Interface uses standard TDM serial bus with programmable framing and clocking - no external level-shifting or glue logic required.
Does PEF 3394 HL V2.2 support G.729AB and G.723.1 vocoders out of the box?
Yes - G.729A/B and G.723.1 codecs are fully implemented in the on-chip DSP and enabled via firmware. Infineon provides patent indemnification for these algorithms, and reference firmware images supporting both are included in the VINETIC Tool CD-ROM and EASY334 evaluation kit.
Is external SDRAM or Flash memory required for operation?
No - PEF 3394 HL V2.2 includes integrated code RAM for firmware download and execution, eliminating need for external non-volatile memory. External memory is optional only for extended feature sets (e.g., custom voice prompts or advanced diagnostics) beyond baseline VoIP functionality.
How is caller-ID implemented - FSK or DTMF?
PEF 3394 HL V2.2 supports both FSK (Bell 202, V.23) and DTMF-based caller-ID generation and detection per line. Configuration is done via register writes; FSK is used for North America and most European countries, while DTMF mode supports legacy Japanese and Korean PSTN networks.
