Hi all, I'm in trouble with a DTMF encoder that I'm trying to use in a new proyect, the HT9200A from HOLTEK, it's a serial (2 wire) DTMF encoder very easy to use, only 3 wires needed (CE , SDATA, SCLK), the logic is working fine and the tone is generated but at the begining and the end of each tone I heard a very short sound "TAC" , in the scope I can see that I have a DC jump at the begining and at the end of the tone and I have no idea how to avoid that DC jump!. using coupling capacitors I found no difference, the ugly sound persist :( the only way that I could avoid that sound is change the tone without stop it, but most dtmf decoders needs at least 30 ms of silence to detect a new tone, so I think that is not the solution. anyone have an idea about how to avoid this DC jump sound?. thanks in advance.
