Features
- The MFR firmware, written entirely in TMS320 assembly language due to the poor efficiency of DSP C compilers at the time, was capable of decoding multiple channels of PCM digital audio while detecting the following signaling systems:
- MF, Multi-Frequency Tones
- DTMF, Dual-Tone Band, Multi-Frequency Tones
- Call Progress Tones
- Other system audio frequencies as needed for on-line, and off-line system testing
- A highly optimized version of the Goertzel algorithm was used as part of the firmware's frequency detection algorithms.
- Due to the tight timing involved in the designs, controlled impedance printed circuit board design techniques was introduced with the MFR-I layout in 1983.

Famous quotes containing the word features:
““It looks as if
Some pallid thing had squashed its features flat
And its eyes shut with overeagerness
To see what people found so interesting
In one another, and had gone to sleep
Of its own stupid lack of understanding,
Or broken its white neck of mushroom stuff
Short off, and died against the windowpane.””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“However much we may differ in the choice of the measures which should guide the administration of the government, there can be but little doubt in the minds of those who are really friendly to the republican features of our system that one of its most important securities consists in the separation of the legislative and executive powers at the same time that each is acknowledged to be supreme, in the will of the people constitutionally expressed.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“The features of our face are hardly more than gestures which force of habit made permanent. Nature, like the destruction of Pompeii, like the metamorphosis of a nymph into a tree, has arrested us in an accustomed movement.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
