  • Patent number: 4723278
    Abstract: A voice circuit of a telephone is provided with a differential amplifier and an impedance setting circuit. An output of an amplifier to amplify an output signal of a transmitter is supplied to the inverting input terminal of the differential amplifier. An output of the impedance setting circuit is supplied to the noninverting input terminal of the differential amplifier. An output signal of the differential amplifier is supplied to a line driver. A positive feedback loop is constituted by the differential amplifier, line driver, telephone line, and impedance setting circuit. By controlling a feedback amount in this positive feedback loop, an AC impedance is controlled.
