This interface is needed to connect the phone to a PC, because the PC`s serial port works with voltage levels between -12 and 12V (RS232 protocol) and the phone operates between 0 and 5V (TTL protocol). Don`t even think in conecting your phone directly to.... -
There`s not much to this circuit. The two RJ-11 jacks are set up to feed the telephone circuit through from the wall to the phone. The active signal for a single phone is on the red and green wires. Yellow and black are usually used for a second phone line..... -
It uses old pulse dial handsets and replaces the AC bell set with a 9 volt DC buzzer. The whole circuit runs from a 12 volt regulated DC supply and is suitable for short term battery operation (eg: Gel Cell). The Link is designed to enable one call at a time.... -
The design also overcomes the shortcomings of modem interference protectors. The design eliminates mutual interference between phones and modems, is compatible with the line-usage indicators on multiline phones, can search for an idle phone line in multiline.... -
This version of the familiar current loop offers a simplified and somewhat novel implementation in which optocouplers serve triple duty as level converters, isolation/protection devices, and bus interfaces. Galvanic isolation avoids ground loops, increases....

This circuit differs from similar circuits in view of its simplicity and a totally different concept of generating the control signals. Usually remote control circuits make use of infrared light to transmit control signals. Their use is thus limited to a.... -
This is the lowest cost dialing alarm on the market and shows what can be done with an 8-pin microcontroller. The complete circuit is shown below. You cannot see all the features of this project by looking at the circuit - most of them are contained in the.... -
With this circuit can determine whether any of the phones of the same line is busy (it's up the handset), with the help of a LED.To circuit has no measurable effect on the telephone, so that there are problems with phone line company . The circuit is.... -
This circuit allows you to record audio from a telephone line into a tape recorder or computer soundcard. Most of the parts for this circuit can be scrounged from an old modem, with some work, it is possible to rewire the modem circuitry and use the old.... -
A while ago I got an email asking for the schematic of a circuit to detect cut phone lines. It didn`t take me long to find this circuit in Electronics Now. When the circuit detects that a phone line has been cut, it activates a MOSFET which can be used to.... -
This project is really a mixture of ideas, some simple, and others even simpler. The system I have installed in my biamp unit is fan cooling. Once a preset temperature is reached, the fans start, and remain on until the amp is turned off again. This is.... -
This is the basis of electronics telephone sets. You can use it to replace the talking circuit of an old telephone set with new design, better noise rejection and reliability one. Also you can use it to build a telephone set without dial circuit to answer a.... -
This really isn't much an electronics project as it is a telephone wiring project. Take note that this proejct involves connections to telephone lines. This may be frowned upon by your telephone service provider, AKA The Telephone Company. Always use proper.... -
The phone company provides 3 levels of power. With no devices 'off hook' the line rests at 48 volts DC. If you draw any more than a fraction of a milliamp or so, you get the phone company's attention and a dial tone. When the line rings, you get about 100.... -
The PIC16F870 chosen for this project has seval analog channels. One of these is used to capture the DTMF tones and decode the digits. The actual phone connections are made using a 'hacked' 5 line expandor from Radio Shack. This device connects between.... -
This circuit is used to give "1" signal when the phone is ringing. As you can see the ct. is directly connected to the phone line. The 4.7 uF blocks the DC loading on the phone line. This means that there is voltage on the 10K resistance only when the phone.... -
his circuit will allow you to connect any tape recorder that has a mic and remote input to a phone line and automatically record both sides of a conversation when ever the phone is in use. You will need to take a couple of voltage readings before connecting.... -
With this circuit mounted in or near every phone in the house, it will allow users to know if the phone is being used and not to pick up the phone. When a phone is taken off hook, the voltage across the tip and ring terminals drops to 10 volts or less. This.... -
This circuit will allow you to place a phone call on hold and if you wish to have them listen to music while they are on hold. The circuit operates as follows: The RED wire from the phone jack is typically positive and the GREEN wire is negative or ground..... -
This unit is an upgrade of the previous phone call interceptor. Instead of using an answering machine to provide the outgoing message and recording functions, it uses the ISD4004 (from Windbond Electronics). The ISD4004 records up to 8 minutes of audio. I.... -
Creating projects that connect to the phone line can be a real chore without some device like this. It generates the 48 volts DC for the on-hook condition, the 100 volts AC for the ring signal, and the 20 milliamperes DC for the off-hook condition. To use.... -
Many times exists the need recording some conversations from a telephone line and this it's relatively easy. If we want however to have the possibility recording from two telephone lines simultaneously in a tape recorder, we needed a circuit as what appears.... -
If we have a lot of parallel telephones on a telephone line, we needed a unit that will have the possibility of showing if somebody of the telephone has raised the earphone. Our this possibility give the circuit. The circuit is connected at parallel with the.... -
A very simple circuit, that will find application in the case where you have a lot of telephones installed on a telephone line and would want to know if somebody of them is open. Thus you will not be off any discussion. Simultaneously it can cut the certain.... -
The Videowire converts a baseband video signal into a low impedance differential signal that can be sent over ordinary four conductor telephone wire. A send board mounted close to the camera generates the differential signal and a receive board near the.... -
The UNIVERSAL HOLD circuit detects the dual tone, multi frequency (DTMF) tone that is generated when the # key is pressed and then activates a circuit that partially loads the telephone line so that the central office thinks a phone is still off hook even.... -
The above diagram is a standard low-pass telephone line filter (L1,C1,L3,C2). L2 and L4 are needed since we're dealing with the 'Tip' and 'Ring' of a phone line which may carry up to 90VAC. I used a similar circuit on 3 phone-lines back in the early 80's.... -
This project has two features. It will let you know when a single phone is using the line and also when two phones are on the line! The green LED indicates the first phone and the red LED indicates the second phone! There are many times when you need to.... -
R1 and R2 form a voltage divider, insuring that the phone line sees a high impedance load and that high voltages (such as the ring voltage) are easily dissipated by the protective diodes (CR1 and CR2). Also (obviously) they serve to divide all incoming....

This add-on device for telephones can be connected in parallel to the telephone instrument. The circuit provides audio-visual indication of on-hook, off-hook, and ringing modes. It can also be used to connect the telephone to a cid (caller identification.... -
Here is a teleremote circuit which enables switching on and off of appliances through telephone lines. It can be used to switch appliances from any distance, overcoming the limited range of infrared and radio remote controls. The circuit described here can.... -
Normally the base of a cordless phone has an adaptor and the handset has Ni-Cd cells for its operation. The base unit becomes inoperative in case of power failure. In such conditions, it is better to provide a backup using Ni-Cd cells externally. Here is a....
