ABSTRACT:
A speech network (11) for a telephone set including a receiver (12) circuit and a transmitter (13) circuit connected in parallel between a tip lead (16) and a ring lead (17). An amplifying transistor (Q4) can be connected in either of two modes, including a normal receive mode for amplifying received signals from the line and applying the amplified receive signal to the receiver circuit. A voice-operated switching unit (Q6,20) is provided for sensing a voice-signal output from the transmitter and connecting the transistor (Q4) in a transmit mode, in which the transistor amplifies the transmitter output for transmission to the line. A sidetone generating circuit (R31, Q5) is connected in parallel with the receiver circuit in the transmit node, for applying a reduced portion of the amplified transmit signal to the receiver.
