DTMF Decoder
This board decodes DTMF signal either from an audio source or phone line to 4 bit binary TTL(5V) level output. It also indicates outputs with LED. Can use directly with microcontrollers to develop various DTMF related applications like remote monitoring, remote control, Caller ID, Auto Dialer and such.

Features
Decodes DTMF as 4 bit binary TTL level output for direct connection to microcontrollers Low power 5V DC operation LED indication of outputs Simple to use Based on excellent MT8870 IC

Applications
Remote Control systems Caller ID applications FM receiver based remote control Remote control using Mobile phone

Specification
Parameter Operating Voltage Operating Current Value 5 100 Unit V DC mA Notes Regulated power supply input

Information
Connect regulated +5V DC supply for operation of board. Outputs Q1-4 and VT are active high output at 5V level. If any LED is on means that output is at high level. VT LED blinks once a new DTMF tone is received. The binary data appears at Q1 to Q4. Details of this output is on next page. Board has two terminals 1) DTMF Audio Input for microphone amp, FM radio receiver, Bluetooth audio receiver and such. 2) Land line phone terminal. Before connection take a Multimeter and identity the plus and minus of your phone line. Then connect to its terminal of Phone+ and Phone- accordingly.
