Device Reset (with pull-up). The active low –RESET input resets the device logic
and returns the configuration of the device to the original factory default values or
"stored values" in the NVRAM. –RESET is tied to VCC through a time-constant
circuit for “Power-on-Reset” functionality. The module is ready to accept commands
after a fixed amount of time (“X” Time) after power-on or reset.

*The SocketModem device may respond to a shorter reset pulse.
Reset Line Interface for the MT5656SMI, MT2456SMI, MT2456SMI-IP. The
modem’s reset line employs a .01uF cap and a 10K pull up resistor. Care must be
taken to ensure the system the modem is place into is not affected by the added
capacitance of the reset line. It is not advisable to use an open collector driver in the
embedded system's reset circuitry to drive a reset signal to the embedded modem
and other I.C.s in the customer’s design. Rather, if an open collector driver is to be
used, run that output to the modem only and use a separate driver for other
embedded components. The modem’s reset signal may also be driven by a circuit
that both sinks and sources current if desired.
It is also important to note that these modems do not require an external reset. They
have their own internal reset circuitry and voltage monitor and will function correctly
even if the reset input is open.
Reset GPRS and CDMA (MTSMC-G and MTSMC-C). This signal is used to force a
reset procedure by providing low level during reset of at least 500us. The signal is
considered an emergency reset only. A reset procedure is already driven by internal
hardware during the power-up sequence. If no external reset is necessary, this input
can be left open. If used (emergency reset), it has to be driven by an open collector
or an open drain.
Reset EDGE with pull-up (MTSMC-E). The active low –RESET input resets the
device logic and returns the configuration of the device to the original factory default
values of "stored values" in the NVRAM. –RESET is tied to VCC through a timeconstant circuit for “Power-on-Reset” functionality. The module is ready to accept
commands after a fixed amount of time after power-on or reset.
USB Voltage Sense. Senses the voltage level of the USB to determine if the bus is
available.

SocketWireless Bluetooth (MTS2BTSMI): No series resistor.
TX (Active High). Output from 74LCX14 with a 1000 Ohms resistor in series.
SocketWireless Bluetooth (MTS2BTSMI): No series resistor.
Request to Send (Active Low). –RTS is controlled by the DTE to indicated whether
or not the DTE is ready to receive data. –RTS ON (low) indicates that the DTE is
ready to receive data from the modem on RXD. –RTS OFF indicates to the module
that it should not transfer data on the RXD.
In the command state, the modem ignores –RTS.
Note: When the –RTS pin is not in use, it should be tied low.
* RESET – A Design Consideration: Allowing the host processor to control the RESET line of the module provides
the benefit of allowing the host to reset the device in the event of a failure to respond normally. Resetting the module
will return it to a known functional state.

Description
Received Data. The module uses the RXD line to send data to the DTE and to send
module responses to the DTE. In command mode, –RXD data presents the module
responses to the DTE. Module responses take priority over incoming data when the
two signals are in competition for –RXD. When no data is transmitted, the signal is
held in mark condition.
Transmitted Data. The DTE uses the –TXD line to send data to the module for
transmission or to transmit commands to the module. The DTE holds this circuit in
mark state when no data is being transmitted or during intervals between characters.
RING (Active Low). Incoming ring signal from phone.
Ring Indicate. –RI output ON (low) indicates the presence of an ON segment of a
ring signal on the telephone line. The modem will not go off-hook when –RI is active;
the modem waits for –RI to go inactive before going off-hook.
SocketWireless Bluetooth (MTS2BTSMI). Strobes 1/sec for slave indication.
Data Set Ready (Active Low). –DSR indicates module status to the DTE. –DSR
OFF (high) indicates that the DTE is to disregard all signals appearing on the
interchange circuits except Ring Indicator (–RI). It reflects the status of the local data
set and does not indicate an actual link with any remote data equipment.
Clear to Send (Active Low). –CTS is controlled by the module to indicate whether or
not the module is ready to transmit data. –CTS ON indicates to the DTE that signals
on TXD will be transmitted. –CTS OFF indicates to the DTE that it should not transfer
data on TXD.
Data Carrier Detect (Active Low). –DCD output is ON (low) when a data
connection is established and the module is ready to send/receive data.
Data Terminal Ready (Active Low). The –DTR input is turned ON (low) when the
DTE is ready to communicate. –DTR ON prepares the modem to be connected, and,
once connected, maintains the connection. –DTR OFF places the modem in the
disconnect state under control of the &Dn and &Qn commands.
Note: When the –DTR pin is not in use, it should be tied low.

MT2456SMI-22 is a square wave output that can be optionally connected to a lowcost single-ended speaker; e.g., a sounducer or an analog speaker circuit.
Call progress on the MT9234SMI and the MT5634SMI is an analog output.
Speakerphone Output on the MT5656SMI is under the control of +FCLASS. This is
a single-ended analog output. SPKR is tied directly to the CODEC. One side of a
differential AC output coupled through a 6.8K ohm resistor and capacitor.
Design Considerations
Noise Suppression Design Considerations
Engineering noise-suppression practices must be adhered to when designing a printed circuit board (PCB)
containing the SocketModem module. Suppression of noise is essential to the proper operation and
performance of the modem itself and for surrounding equipment.
Two aspects of noise in an OEM board design containing the SocketModem must be considered: onboard/off-board generated noise that can affect digital signal processing. Both on-board and off-board
generated noise that is coupled on-board can affect interface signal levels and quality. Of particular concern
is noise in frequency ranges affecting modem performance.
On-board generated electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise that can be radiated or conducted off-board is
a separate, but equally important, concern. This type of noise can affect the operation of surrounding
equipment. Most local government agencies have stringent certification requirements that must be met for
use in specific environments.
Proper PC board layout (component placement, signal routing, trace thickness and geometry, etc.)
component selection (composition, value, and tolerance), interface connections, and shielding are required
for the board design to achieve desired modem performance and to attain EMI certification.
Other aspects of proper noise-suppression engineering practices are beyond the scope of this designer
guide. The designer should consult noise suppression techniques described in technical publications and
journals, electronics and electrical engineering text books, and component supplier application notes.
PC Board Layout Guidelines
In a 4-layer design, provide adequate ground plane covering the entire board. In 4-layer designs, power and
ground are typically on the inner layers. All power and ground traces should be 0.05 inches wide.
The recommended hole size for the SocketModem pins is 0.036 in. +/-0.003 in. in diameter. Spacers can be
used to hold the SocketModem vertically in place during the wave solder process. A spacer should be
placed on pin 32 and pin 64 of the SocketModem. A suggested part number for the spacer is BIVAR 9380.130 for P1 (0.310in) option SocketModems. The spacers can be left on permanently and will not effect
operation.
All creepages and clearances for the SocketModem have been designed to meet requirements of safety
standards EN60950 or EN60601. The requirements are based on a working voltage of 125V or 250V. When
the recommended DAA* circuit interface is implemented in a third party design, all creepage and clearance
requirements must be strictly followed in order to meet safety standards. The third party safety design must
be evaluated by the appropriate national agency per the required specification.
User accessible areas: Based on where the third party design is to be marketed, sold, or used, it may be
necessary to provide an insulating cover over all TNV exposed areas. Consult with the recognized safety
agency to determine the requirements.
Note: Even if the recommended design considerations are followed, there are no guarantees that a
particular system will comply with all the necessary regulatory requirements. It is imperative that specific
designs be completely evaluated by a qualified/recognized agency.
*DAA stands for Data Access Arrangement. DAA is the telephone line interface of the module.

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Considerations
The following guidelines are offered to specifically help minimize EMI generation. Some of these guidelines
are the same as, or similar to, the general guidelines but are mentioned again to reinforce their importance.
In order to minimize the contribution of the SocketModem-based design to EMI, the designer must
understand the major sources of EMI and how to reduce them to acceptable levels.
1.
Keep traces carrying high frequency signals as short as possible.
2.
Provide a good ground plane or grid. In some cases, a multilayer board may be required with full
layers for ground and power distribution.
3.
Decouple power from ground with decoupling capacitors as close to the SocketModem module
power pins as possible.
4.
Eliminate ground loops, which are unexpected current return paths to the power source and
ground.
5.
Decouple the telephone line cables at the telephone line jacks. Typically, use a combination of
series inductors, common mode chokes, and shunt capacitors. Methods to decouple telephone
lines are similar to decoupling power lines; however, telephone line decoupling may be more
difficult and deserves additional attention. A commonly used design aid is to place footprints for
these components and populate as necessary during performance/EMI testing and certification.
6.
Decouple the power cord at the power cord interface with decoupling capacitors. Methods to
decouple power lines are similar to decoupling telephone lines.
7.
Locate high frequency circuits in a separate area to minimize capacitive coupling to other circuits.
8.
Locate cables and connectors so as to avoid coupling from high frequency circuits.
9.
Lay out the highest frequency signal traces next to the ground grid.
10.
If a multilayer board design is used, make no cuts in the ground or power planes and be sure the
ground plane covers all traces.
11.
Minimize the number of through-hole connections on traces carrying high frequency signals.
12.
Avoid right angle turns on high frequency traces. Forty-five degree corners are good; however,
radius turns are better.
13.
On 2-layer boards with no ground grid, provide a shadow ground trace on the opposite side of the
board to traces carrying high frequency signals. This will be effective as a high frequency ground
return if it is three times the width of the signal traces.
14.
Distribute high frequency signals continuously on a single trace rather than several traces radiating
from one point.
Electrostatic Discharge Control
All electronic devices should be handled with certain precautions to avoid damage due to the accumulation
of static charge.
See the ANSI/ESD Association Standard (ANSI/ESD S20.20-1999) – a document “for the Development of
an Electrostatic Discharge Control for Protection of Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies and
Equipment.” This document covers ESD Control Program Administrative Requirements, ESD Training, ESD
Control Program Plan Technical Requirements (grounding/bonding systems, personnel grooming, protected
areas, packaging, marking, equipment, and handling), and Sensitivity Testing.
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. strives to follow all of these recommendations. Input protection circuitry has been
incorporated into the Multi-Tech devices to minimize the effect of this static buildup, proper precautions
should be taken to avoid exposure to electrostatic discharge during handling.
Multi-Tech uses and recommends that others use anti-static boxes that create a faraday cage (packaging
designed to exclude electromagnetic fields). Multi-Tech recommends that you use our packaging when
returning a product and when you ship your products to your customers.

Labeling Requirements
United States Labeling Requirements (for Dial-Up Modems)
Telecom does not apply to all products. For example, this is not applicable for the SocketModem GPRS
and CDMA products.
Approved terminal equipment and approved protective circuitry shall prominently display the following
information using the format shown below:
• Responsible party
• Product Identification
• Equipment Code
• Ringer Equivalence
• Ringer Type
• Indication that the product meets the requirements of FCC Part 68
The information required by the first five items shall correspond to the records in the ACTA (America's
Carriers Telecommunications Association) database of approved equipment. The required information
shall be encoded in the following format:
US: AAAEQ##TXXX
Where:
US: Is a fixed field that indicates the equipment meets all requirements of 47 CFR Part 68, including the
requirements published by ACTA (America's Carriers Telecommunications Association).
AAA is the responsible party’s Grantee Code obtained previously from the FCC’s Common Carrier
Bureau or currently from ACTA.
EQ Is an Equipment Code indicating to the Service Provider any special signal handling or billing
requirements. The Equipment codes are listed in Annex A (normative).
## is the Ringer Equivalence Number without a decimal point (e.g. REN of 1.0 = 10, REN of 0.3 = 03).
In the case of a “Z” ringer, ZZ shall appear. In the case of approved equipment without a network
interface and equipment not connecting to circuits with analog ringing supplied then “NA” shall appear.
T is the ringer type letter associated with the Ringer Equivalence Number, in accordance with the
technical requirements. In the case of approved equipment without a network interface and equipment
not connecting to circuits with analog ringing supplied, the letter “N” shall appear.
XXX Is a product identifier, unique when combined with the responsible party’s Grantee Code, of at
least one and up to nine alphanumeric characters (including one or more dashes (-) if desired. A dash
shall not appear as the first or last character nor shall the identifier consist entirely of dashes). The
responsible party shall define this identifier.
Label Physical Characteristics
The information required above shall be permanently affixed and legible without magnification. It
may be etched, engraved, stamped, indelibly printed, or otherwise permanently marked.
Alternatively, the required information may be permanently marked on a nameplate of metal, plastic
or other material fastened to the enclosure by welding, riveting or with a permanent adhesive. Such
a nameplate shall be able to last for the expected lifetime of the equipment and shall not be readily
detachable.
Labeling Continuity and Changes
The labeling content and format requirements in effect when a product was approved shall be
effective for the life of the product. The labeling content and format requirements in effect at
approval shall also continue to be effective for modified products. However, the responsible party
shall have the option of conforming a product's labeling to current content and format requirements
at any time.
Other Label Requirements
The label shall be placed in one of the following locations in a location where it can be found after
installation:
• on an outside surface
• inside a readily available access door or panel
• on another readily accessible surface
For example, the label should not be placed on the rear of a permanently wall-mounted device in a
manner such that it is not readily accessible.

Chapter 1 – Universal Socket Connectivity
Canadian Labeling Requirements (for Dial-Up Modems)
The following requirements are established under section 69.3 of the Telecommunications Act for
purposes of section 5 of the Telecommunications Apparatus Regulations.
Registered equipment shall bear the following identifying marks, and the Declaring Party shall ensure
that these marks are permanently affixed to the equipment:
(a) The registration number — Specifications of this mark are given in the document: Self-Marking of
the Certification/Registration Number on Terminal Equipment — Application Procedure and
Agreement; and
(b) The model identification number under which the product was registered.
A statement of compliance with Industry Canada requirements, such as the one given below, shall
accompany each unit of equipment whether registered under this procedure or previously certified:
"This product meets the applicable Industry Canada technical specifications"
For terminal equipment intended for connection to loop-start or ground-start interfaces, the Ringer
Equivalence Number (REN) must be calculated as per Section 1.8 of CS-03, Part I. A REN higher than
that determined may be assigned by manufacturers to allow for production variations. The REN must be
marked on the terminal equipment itself or added to the note below. A note similar to the following shall
accompany each unit of equipment whether registered under this procedure or previously certified:
"The Ringer Equivalence Number is an indication of the maximum number of devices allowed to
be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any
combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the RENs of all the
devices does not exceed five".
Pursuant to section 69.3 of the Telecommunications Act, certified or self-declared TE will bear a valid
identifying certification number or registration number. The marking of the certification or registration
number on the product shall be as follows:
(a) TAC holder/DP will be responsible for permanently affixing the certification/registration number on
the TE. The certification/registration number (see example below) identifies Certified or selfdeclared TE to the public, representatives of the telecommunications common carriers, the
Department, and other interested parties. The letter height must be no less than 1.5 mm and the
letters must be legible without magnification.
(b) For integrated devices, e.g. a modem or one that is intended to become a sub-assembly of host
equipment e.g. a data terminal, computer etc. that are designed to interface directly with the
network, the certification/registration number shall be affixed to the integrated device itself.
(c) The certification/registration number for a packaged TE will denote that the total package has been
registered. However, the marking will normally be placed on that unit of the package which
connects to the network; e.g., in a PBX the marking will be placed on the common equipment which
connects to the network, rather than on plug-in components which may be added later. The
Terminal Equipment List will show the common equipment but not the standard station apparatus
or any proprietary station apparatus.
(d) The marking format of the certification/registration number is as follows:
IC: XXXXXX-YYYYYYYY
Where:
• The letters "IC" have no other meaning or purpose than to identify the Industry Canada
certification/registration number, and
• “XXXXXX-YYYYYYYY” is the certification/registration number; “XXXXXX” is the Company
Number¹ (CN); it consists of up to six alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) assigned by Industry
Canada; and “YYYYYYYY” is the Unique Product Number (UPN); it consists of up to eight
alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) assigned by the applicant. Other characters, (such as & # *-)
may not be used. Alphabetic characters must be capitalized.
¹ Note: The Company Number of registered equipment ends with an alphabetic character.
(e) Certification Numbers granted prior to the implementation of the above marking format are
grandfathered.
(i) For previously certified TE, the self-marking format shall consist of the old certification number
preceded by “IC:” For example, if the certification number is “123 1234 A”, then the self-mark
would read “IC: 123 1234 A”.
(ii) For a new model that is registered to a family of previously certified TE, the self-marking format
shall be: IC: XXXXXX-ZZZZZZZZ
Where:
• “XXXXXX” is the Company Number, as in (d) above; and
• “ZZZZZZZZ” is either the old certification number minus the old company number, or a new
Unique Product Number assigned by the applicant. For example, if a new model is registered to
the family of products with certification number “123 1234 A”, and that the Company Number for
the registration is “123A”, then the self-mark for this new model would read “IC: 123A-1234 A”. If
the applicant decides to replace “1234 A” with a new UPN, say “5678", then the self-mark would
read “IC: 123A-5678".

3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only that Telecom has
accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions for connection to its network. It indicates
no endorsement of the product by Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it
provides no assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another item of
Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that any product is
compatible with all of Telecom’s network services.
This equipment is not capable under all operating conditions of correct operating conditions of
correct operation at the higher speed which it is designated. 33.6 kbps and 56 kbps connections
are likely to be restricted to lower bit rates when connected to some PSTN implementations.
Telecom will accept no responsibility should difficulties arise in such circumstances.
Immediately disconnect this equipment should it become physically damaged, and arrange for its
disposal or repair.
This modem shall not be used in any manner which could constitute a nuisance to other Telecom
customers.
This device is equipped with pulse dialing, while the Telecom standard is DTMF tone dialing. There
is no guarantee that Telecom lines will always continue to support pulse dialing.
Use of pulse dialing, when this equipment is connected to the same line as other equipment, may
give rise to 'bell tinkle' or noise and may also cause a false answer condition. Should such
problems occur, the user should NOT contact the Telecom Faults Service.
The preferred method of dialing is to use DTMF tones, as this is faster than pulse (decadic) dialing
and is readily available on almost all New Zealand telephone exchanges.
Warning Notice: No '111' or other calls can be made from this device during a mains power failure.
This equipment may not provide for the effective hand-over of a call to another device connected to
the same line.
Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s Telepermit requirements are dependent
on the equipment (PC) associated with this device. The associated equipment shall be set to
operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom’s Specifications:
For repeat calls to the same number:
• There shall be no more than 10 call attempts to the same number within any 30 minute
period for any single manual call initiation, and
• The equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than 30 seconds between the end
of one attempt and the beginning of the next attempt.
For automatic calls to different numbers:
• The equipment shall be set to ensure that automatic calls to different numbers are spaced
such that there is no less than 5 seconds between the end of one call attempt and the
beginning of another.
For correct operation, total of the RN’s of all devices connected to a single line at any time should
not exceed 5.
South African Statement
This modem must be used in conjunction with an approved surge protection device.

Regulatory Requirements for the Antenna
This section covers how to use the modular transmitter in order to maintain the modular transmitter approval
and RF exposure compliance.
Conditions to Satisfy Modular Transmitter Approval
This device is intended only for use by OEM integrators under the following 3 conditions:
1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and the end user
for all installations.
2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
3) The communications device is approved using the FCC "unlicensed modular transmitter approval"
method. Therefore, the communication device must only be used with the originally approved
antennas.
As long as the 3 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the
OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements
with this communication device installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral
requirements, etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that any of these conditions CANNOT be met (for example certain
laptop configurations, co-location with another transmitter, or use of a different type antenna), then the
FCC authorization for the communications device is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID CANNOT
be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
RF Exposure Statements Developers Must Include in the Their User Manual for Their End Users
The user manual for consumers must include the following information in a prominent location:
"IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF safety exposure limits, the antenna used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must
not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter."
Regulatory Requirements for End Product Labeling
Suggested End Product Labeling
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in devices where the antenna may be installed in such a
way that 20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and the users (for example access points,
routers, wireless ASDL modems, and similar equipment). The final end product must be labeled in a
visible area on the exterior of the enclosure with the following or similar text: "Contains TX FCC ID:
AU792U07B06821".
FCC & IC Information to Consumers
The user manual for the consumer must contain the statements required by the following FCC and IC
regulations: 47 C.F.R. 15.19(a)(3), 15.21, 15.101 and RSS-Gen Issue 2 dated June 2007, Sections 7.1.4
and 7.1.5.
Additional Information That Must be Provided to OEM Integrators
The end user should NOT be provided any instructions on how to remove or install the modular
transmitter.
