Two way Simple Very Small Telephone Exchange

Summary of Two way Simple Very Small Telephone Exchange


This project is a very small two-line telephone exchange using a PIC16F84A microcontroller providing full bidirectional intercom between two ordinary telephones; when one goes off-hook the exchange rings the other and connects them. Power is from a 230 V supply with a step-down transformer producing multiple voltages; the controller interfaces two SLIC modules.

Parts used in the Very Small Telephone Exchange:

  • Step down transformer (230 V to 30 V, 15 V & 100 V)
  • Two bridge 1 A rectifiers
  • 7805 5V regulator
  • 7812 12V regulator
  • 1000 µF, 35 V electrolytic capacitor
  • 1000 µF, 16 V electrolytic capacitor
  • 150 mA fuse and fuse holder
  • Necessary wires and AC supply wiring
  • 2SC945 transistors x3
  • 1N4007 diode x1
  • 1N4148 diodes x2
  • LED x1
  • 4.7 µF (16 V) capacitors x4
  • 22 pF capacitors x2
  • 10 K resistors x4
  • 4.7 K resistors x4
  • 330 ohm resistor x1
  • 12 V telephone relay x1
  • Necessary wires for controller/SLIC connections
  • PIC16F84A microcontroller with firmware version 1.00
  • Two SLIC modules (each with TN, SD, RG connections)

This is a very small telephone exchange attached only two ordinary Tele phones. Fully bi-directional facility with an intercom system. When a phone is in off hook condition , Exchange will detect it & send ringing pulse to other phone. When it will be picked up , the connection will be established between both phones. This will be taken place vice-versa.

The Power Supply  Unit.
This is used normal step down transformer (400ma) for generating three type of deference voltages & 100 AC volt for rigging.

It doesn’t provided a PCB pattern for the power supply unit. So a Vero board can be used to build the unit.

Parts List :

1.Step down transformer ( 230 V to 30 V , 15 V  & 100 V )
2.Two bridged 1 A rectifiers
3.7805 – 5V regulator
4.7812 – 12V regulator
5.1000 uf – 35 V
6.1000 uf – 16 v
7.150 ma fuse & it’s holders.
8.Necessary Wires & a wire code for AC supply.

The controlling unit ( Exchange )

This circuit is base on PIC16F84A microcontroller. Two slimier SLIC are connected to The controlling unit. It needs to identify following connections on the controlling unit circuit diagram.

TN_SLIC_1 & TN_SLIC_2
SD_SLIC_1 & SD_SLIC_2
RG_SLIC_1 & RG_SLIC_2

One SLIC connections should be marked as,

1. TN_SLIC_1
2. SD_SLIC_1
3. RG_SLIC_1

Other SLIC connections should be marked as,

1. TN_SLIC_2
2. SD_SLIC_2
3. RG_SLIC_2

These connections should be connected as on the controlling unit circuit diagram.

Quick Solutions to Questions related to Very Small Telephone Exchange:

  • What microcontroller is used in the exchange?
    The PIC16F84A microcontroller is used with firmware version 1.00.
  • How many telephones can this exchange support?
    It is attached to two ordinary telephones only.
  • How does the exchange detect and connect calls?
    When a phone goes off hook the exchange detects it and sends a ringing pulse to the other phone; picking up establishes the connection bidirectionally.
  • What voltages does the power transformer provide?
    The step down transformer provides 30 V, 15 V, and 100 V AC outputs.
  • Are PCB patterns provided for the power supply unit?
    No PCB pattern is provided; a Vero board can be used to build the power supply unit.
  • What SLIC connections are required for each line?
    Each SLIC requires TN_SLIC_x, SD_SLIC_x, and RG_SLIC_x connections (for SLIC 1 and SLIC 2 respectively).
  • Which relay is used in the controlling unit?
    A 12 V telephone relay is used in the controlling unit.
  • What diodes are listed in the parts for the controller?
    The controller parts list includes one 1N4007 and two 1N4148 diodes plus one LED.
