RMX[3:0]
Ring Assertion Maximum Count.
These bits set the maximum ring frequency for a valid ring signal. During ring qualification,
a timer is loaded with the RAS[5:0] field upon a TIP/RING event and decrements at a reg-
ular rate. When a subsequent TIP/RING event occurs, the timer value is compared to the
RMX[3:0] field, and if it exceeds the value in RMX[3:0], the frequency of the ring is too
high, and the ring is invalidated. The difference between RAS[5:0] and RMX[3:0] identifies
the minimum duration between TIP/RING events to qualify as a ring, in binary-coded incre-
ments of 2.0 ms (nominal). A TIP/RING event typically occurs twice per ring tone period.
At 20 Hz, TIP/RING events would occur every 1/(2 x 20 Hz) = 25 ms. To calculate the cor-
rect RMX[3:0] value for a frequency range [f_min, f_max], the following equation should be
used: RMX[3:0] x 2 ms = RAS[5:0] – 2 ms – (1/(2 x f_max)).
