V.34/Group 3 High Performance Fax Modem Family
The Conexantä FM336Plus High Performance Fax Modem family offers ITU-T V.34 half-
duplex mode operation that supports synchronous Group 3 facsimile send and receive
speeds up to 33600 bits per second (bps). The FM336Plus-D and FM336Plus-D90
support ITU-T V.34 duplex data and synchronous/asynchronous modes with rates up to
33600 bps. The FM336Plus-D90 also supports ITU-T V.90 PCM mode, which can receive
data at speeds up to 56 kbps.
The device has low voltage operation and is housed in a 100-pin Plastic Quad Flat
Package (PQFP). The modem’s small size and low power consumption allow the design
of compact system enclosures for use in industrial, office, and home environments.
Table 1 lists the FM336Plus Modem Family models and features.
Utilizing V.34 and V.90 techniques to optimize modem configuration for line conditions,
the modem connects at the optimal selected data rate that the channel can support from
2400 bps up to 56 kbps. The modem can operate over the Public Switched Telephone
Network (PSTN) through a line terminator provided by a Data Access Arrangement
(DAA).
The FM336Plus is backward pin compatible with the previous Conexant FM336 fax
modem, and supports all features of the FM336 family. The FM336Plus also has
numerous feature and performance enhancements. For more information on the
enhancements, refer to the FM336Plus High Performance Fax Modem Designer’s Guide
(Doc No. 101360A).

V.34/Group 3 High Performance Fax Modem Family FM336Plus
101361C Conexant 3
Group 3 Facsimile Modem
(Entire FM336Plus Family)
The modem satisfies the requirements specified in ITU-T
Recommendations V.34 half-duplex, V.17, V.33, V.29,
V.27 ter, V.21, and meets the binary signaling
requirements of V.8 and T.30 with Annex F.
Internal HDLC support eliminates the need for an external
serial input/output (SIO) device in the DTE for products
incorporating error detection and T.30 protocol. The
modem can perform HDLC framing per T.30 at all data
speeds. CRC generation/checking along with zero
insertion/deletion enhances SDLC/HDLC frame
operations. Two FSK (V.21 Ch. 1 and V.21 Ch. 2) flag
pattern detectors facilitate FSK detection during high-
speed reception. The modem features a programmable
DTMF transmitter/receiver and three programmable tone
detectors.
Duplex Data Mode (-D / -D90)
The duplex data mode supports Internet facsimile
applications. The modem can connect at the highest data
rate up to 33600 bps with auto fall back to V.32 bis. The
FM336Plus-D and FM336Plus-D90 modems satisfy the
requirements specified in ITU-T Recommendations V.34,
V.32 bis, V.32, V.22 bis, V.22, V.23, V.21, Bell 208, Bell
212A, and Bell 103.
ITU-T V.90 PCM Mode (-D90)
The ITU-T V.90 PCM mode can receive data at speeds
up to 56 kbps from a digitally connected V.90 central site
modem. The FM336Plus-D90 takes advantage of the
PSTN which is primarily digital to the central office local
loop (except for the client modem) and is ideal for
applications such as remote access to an Internet
Service Provider (ISP), online service, or corporate
intranet. The modem can send upstream data at speeds
up to the V.34 rate.
Technical Specifications
The FM336Plus modem provides the processing core for
a complete facsimile modem design.
Configurations and Rates
Selectable modem configurations, signaling rates, and
data rates are listed in Table 2.
Automatic Mode Selection (-D / -D90)
When Automatic Mode Selection (AMS) is enabled, the
modem configures itself to the highest compatible data
rate supported by the remote modem. Automode
operation is supported in V.90 (-D90 only), V.34, V.32 bis,
V.32, V.22 bis, V.22, V.21, V.23, Bell 208, Bell 212A, and
Bell 103 modes.
Automatic Rate Adaptation
In V.34 duplex, V.34 half-duplex, and V.32 bis modes,
Automatic Rate Adaptation (ARA) can be enabled to
select the optimal highest acceptable data rate based on
the Eye Quality Monitor (EQM). This selection occurs
during startup.
Two ARA modes are available. ARA in ROM is an
adaptive selection made by the modem based upon a
fixed ROM table. ARA in RAM is based on the host
programmable RAM table and can be changed by the
user.
Data Encoding
The data encoding conforms to ITU-T Recommendations
V.90 (-D90 only), V.34, V.32 bis, V.32, V.17, V.33, V.29,
V.27 ter, V.22 bis, V.22, V.23, or V.21, and is compatible
with Bell 208, 212A, or 103, depending on the
configuration.
Tone Generation
The modem can generate single or dual voice-band tones
from 0 Hz to 3600 Hz with a resolution of 0.15 Hz and an
accuracy of ± 0.01%. Tones over 3000 Hz are
attenuated. DTMF tone generation allows the modem to
operate as a programmable DTMF dialer.
FM336Plus V.34/Group 3 High Performance Fax Modem Family
4Conexant 101361C
Supervisory Tone Detection
Three parallel tone detectors (A, B, and C) are provided
for supervisory tone detection. The signal path to these
detectors is separate from the main received signal path.
Each tone detector consists of two cascaded second
order IIR biquad filters. The coefficients are host
programmable. Each fourth order filter is followed by a
level detector which has host programmable turn-on and
turn-off thresholds allowing hysteresis. A pre-filter and
squarer precede tone detector C. This circuit is useful for
detecting a tone with a frequency equal to the difference
between two tones that may be simultaneously present
on the line. The SQDIS bit may disable the squarer
causing tone detector C to be an eight-order filter. The
tone detectors are disabled in data mode.
The tone detection sample rate is 9600 Hz in V.8 and
V.34 modes and is 7200 Hz in non-V.34 modes. The
default call progress filter coefficients are based on a
7200 Hz sampling rate and apply to non-V.34 modes
only. The maximum detection bandwidth is equal to one-
half the sample rate.
Auto-Dialing and Auto-Answering Control
Features are provided to allow the host to perform auto-
dialing and auto-answering. These functions include
DTMF or pulse dialing, ring detection, and a
comprehensive supervisory tone detection scheme. The
major control parameters are host programmable.
Transmitted Data Spectrum
The transmitter spectrum is shaped by raised cosine filter
functions, either the square root of 12.5% (V.34, V.32 bis,
V.32), 20% (V.17, V.33, and V.29), 50% (V.27 ter, Bell
208), or 75% (V.22 bis, Bell 212A).
Scrambler/Descrambler
A self-synchronizing scrambler/descrambler is used in
accordance with the selected configuration.
Transmit Level
The transmitter output level is selectable from 0 dBm to
-15 dBm in 1 dB steps and is accurate to ±0.5 dB when
used with an external hybrid. The output level can also be
tuned by changing a gain constant in the modem DSP
RAM. The maximum V.34 transmit level for acceptable
receive performance should not exceed -9 dBm.
Answer Tone (-D / -D90)
When the NV25 bit is a zero, the modem generates a
2100 Hz answer tone at the beginning of the answer
handshake for 5.0 seconds (V.8) or 3.6 seconds
(V.32 bis, V.32, V.22 bis, V.22, V.23, and V.21). The
answer tone has 180° phase reversals every 0.45
seconds to disable network echo cancellers (V.8,
V.32 bis, and V.32).
Receive Level
The modem satisfies performance requirements for
received line signal levels from 0 dBm to -43 dBm
measured at the receiver analog (TIP and RING) input in
V.17, V.33, V.29, V.27 ter, and DTMF modes. In V.90,
V.34, V.32 bis, V.32, V.22 bis, V.22, and V.23 modes, the
receive level range is from -9 dBm (-15 dBm at RIN) to -43
dBm. (A 6 dB pad is required between TIP/RING and RIN;
RIN is 6 dB lower than TIP and RING.)
Carrier Recovery
The carrier recovery circuit can track a ±7 Hz frequency
offset in the received carrier.
Clamping
Received Data (RXD) is clamped to a constant mark
whenever the Received Line Signal Detector (RLSD) is
off. RLSD can be clamped off (RLSDE bit).
Echo Canceller (-D / -D90)
A data echo canceller with near-end and far-end echo
cancellation is included for 2-wire duplex V.90/V.34/
V.32 bis/V.32 operation. The combined echo span of
near and far cancellers can be up to 40 ms. The
proportion allotted to each end is automatically
determined by the modem. The delay between near-end
and far-end echoes can be up to 1.2 seconds.

Async/Sync and Sync/Async Conversion
(-D / -D90)
An asynchronous-to-synchronous converter is provided in
the transmitter and a synchronous-to-asynchronous
converter is provided in the receiver. The converters
operate in both serial and parallel modes. The
asynchronous character format is 1 start bit, 5 to 8 data
bits, an optional parity bit, and 1 or 2 stop bits. Valid
character size, including all bits, is 7, 8, 9, 10, or 11 bits
per character. Two ranges of signaling rates are provided:
Basic range: +1% to -2.5%
Extended overspeed range: +2.3% to -2.5%
When the transmit converter is operating at the basic
signaling rate, no more than one stop bit will be deleted
per eight consecutive characters. When operating at the
extended rate, no more than one stop bit will be deleted
per four consecutive characters. Break handling is
performed as described in V.14.
Asynchronous characters are accepted on the TXD serial
input and are issued on the RXD serial output.
V.54 Inter-DCE Signaling (-D / -D90)
The modem supports V.56 inter-DCE signaling
procedures in synchronous and asynchronous
configuration. Transmission and detection of the
preparatory, acknowledgment, and termination phases as
defined in V.54 are provided. Three control bits (VT54T,
V54A, and V54P) in the transmitter allow the host to send
the appropriate bit patterns. Three control bits (V54TE,
V54AE, and V54PE) in the receiver are used to enable
one of the three bit pattern detectors. A status bit
(V54DT) indicates when the selected pattern detector has
found the corresponding bit pattern.
V.13 Remote RTS Signaling (-D / -D90)
The modem supports V.13 remote RTS signaling.
Transmission and detection of signaling bit patterns in
response to a change of state in the RTS bit or the /RTS
input signal are provided. This feature may be used to
clamp/unclamp the local/RLSD and RXD signals in
response to a change in the remote /RTS signal in order
to simulate controlled carrier operation in a constant
carrier environment. The modem automatically clamps
and unclamps /RLSD.
511 Pattern Generation/Detection (-D / -D90)
In synchronous mode, a 511 pattern can be generated
and detected (control bit S511). Use of this bit pattern
during self-test eliminates the need for external test
equipment.
In-Band Secondary Channel (-D / -D90)
A duplex in-band secondary channel is provided in V.34
(all speeds) and V.32 bis/V.32 (7200 bps and above)
modes. The secondary channel operates in parallel data
mode with independent transmit and receive interrupts
and data buffers. The main channel may operate in
parallel or serial mode.
In V.34 modes, the secondary channel rate is 200 bps.
In V.32 bis/V.32 modes, the secondary channel rate is
150 bps. This rate is also host programmable in
V.32 bis/V.32 modes.
Transmit FIFO Buffer and Receive FIFO Buffer
Two 16-byte first-in first-out (FIFO) data buffers allow
the DTE/host to output up to 16 bytes of transmit data
to the Transmit FIFO Buffer (TXFIFO) and input up to
16 bytes of accumulated received data from the
Receive FIFO Buffer (RXFIFO).
V.34/Group 3 High Performance Fax Modem Family FM336Plus
101361C Conexant 7
The RXFIFO is always enabled. The host can enable
the TXFIFO. Status bits indicate when the TXFIFO is
not full, the TXFIFO is half-full (eight or more bytes
loaded), the RXFIFO is empty, and the RXFIFO is half-
full. An interrupt mask register allows an interrupt
request to be generated whenever the status bits
change state.
Transmit Extended FIFO Buffer and Receive
Extended FIFO Buffer
The TXFIFO and RXFIFO can be extended up to an
additional 255 bytes with the Transmit Extended FIFO
Buffer (TXEFIFO) and the Receive Extended FIFO
Buffer (RXEFIFO). The size of the FIFO extension is
255 bytes overall and can be divided between the two
extended FIFOs in any proportion.
DMA Support for Interrupt Request Lines
DMA support is available in synchronous data modes.
When DMA support is enabled, the modem /RI and /DSR
lines are assigned to Transmitter Request (TXRQ) and
Receiver Request (RXRQ) hardware output interrupt
request lines, respectively. The TXRQ and RXRQ signals
follow the assertion of the Transmit Data Buffer Empty
(TDBE) and Receive Data Buffer Full (RDBF) interrupt
bits, thereby allowing the DTE/host to respond
immediately to the interrupt request without masking out
status bits to determine the interrupt source.
NRZI Encoding/Decoding
NRZI data encoding/decoding may be selected in
synchronous modes instead of the default NRZ via
control bit NRZIEN. In NRZ encoding, a 1 (one) is
represented by a high level and 0 (zero) is represented
by a low level. In NRZI encoding, a 1 is represented by
no change in level and a 0 is represented by a change
in level.
ITU-T CRC-32 Support
ITU-T CRC-32 generation/checking may be selected
instead of the default ITU-T CRC-16 in HDLC mode using
DSP RAM access.
ADPCM Voice Mode (Conexant Proprietary)
A Conexant proprietary Adaptive Differential Pulse Code
Modulation (ADPCM) voice coder and decoder (codec) is
provided to compress and decompress voice signals for
efficient digital storage of voice messages. The codec
operates at 32 Kbps, 24 Kbps, or 16 Kbps (4-bit, 3-bit, or
2-bit quantization, respectively) with an 8.0 kHz sampling
rate.
Caller ID Demodulation
Caller ID information can be demodulated in the V.23
1200 receive configuration and presented to the
DTE/host in serial (RXD) or parallel (RBUFFER) form.
Single Tone Detection in Data Mode
A tone detector is provided to perform single tone
detection and is available in V.90, V.34, V.32bis, V.32,
V.17, V.29, and V.27ter modes. By default, single tone
level down to approximately -28 dBm can be detected.
The detector can tolerate near-end echo levels up to
10 dB above the call waiting tone level.
Telephone Line Interface
Line Transformer Interface. V.90/V.34 places high
requirements upon the Data Access Arrangement (DAA)
connection to the telephone line. Due to the wider
bandwidth requirement of V.90 and V.34, the DAA must
maintain linearity from 150 to 3950 Hz for V.34, and from
10 to 4000 Hz for V.90.
Relay Control. Direct control of the off-hook and
talk/data relays is provided. Internal relay drivers allow
direct connection to the off-hook and talk/data relays. The
talk/data relay output can optionally be used for pulse
dial.
Speaker Interface. A SPKR output is provided with
on/off and volume control logic incorporated in the
modem, requiring only an external amplifier to drive a
speaker.
Clock Sources
The modem is offered in two configurations depending
upon the selected clock source. One configuration utilizes
a crystal source and the other uses an oscillator source.
For the crystal configuration, the crystal is connected to
XTALI (pin 85) and XTALO (pin 86). For the oscillator
source, the oscillator is connected to CLKIN (pin 85) and
XTALO (pin 86) is not connected.

Hardware Interface Signals
Figure 1 illustrates the functional interface signals. In this
diagram, an active low signal is indicated by a forward
slash “/” (e.g., /RESET). A clock intended to activate logic
on its rising edge (low-to-high transition) is called active
high (e.g., TDCLK), while a clock intended to activate
logic on its falling edge (high-to-low transition) is called
active low (e.g., /RDCLK).
Figure 2 illustrates the modem pin assignments.
Table 3 provides the signal descriptions.
