I am interested in building a 1200 buad modem either from a kit or
just from a design. I know of many 300 buad designs and kits, but no
1200 buad versions. This is probably because the 1200 buad modems
encompass an entirely different design. Does anyone have a 1200 buad
design/kit they could send me? Or even the address of some place to
contact. Any info on costs and difficulties of building such a modem,
would also be apprecciated.

"I am interested in building a 1200 buad modem either from a

A big difficulty is that you aren't allowed to hook the modem to the
telephone network until it's been certified by the FCC. This isn't
something that an individual does on a hobby project; it takes the
resources of a company that's designing modems for a profit.
If you do hook up your modem without permission, and it brings down
some of the network, the phone company will Own Your Soul. You're
liable for the entire cost of repair, including labor, and may find
yourself brought up on criminal charges.

Summary:
While the process for getting an approved phone line interface is indeed
arduous, you can by approved "black box" line interface which meet the
requirements for you. There are (1) full blown DAAs at $100 to $150
(2) small modules designed to be built in to modems (aimed at small
manufacturers or small lots to avoid certification hassles).
This is the easy part of building a 1200 bps full duplex modem.

Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you can build a
direct connect modem without going thru FCC certification; however
you must use an FCC certified DAA to do so. Off hand, I believe
Cermetec and Novation build FCC certified DAA's, there are probably
other manufacutrers also. Anyway, the DAA's are EXPENSIVE in single
unit purchases, they aren't even cheap in 100,000 unit pricing.
It may be cheaper and less headache to buy a modem than build your
own. Good Luck!

If PLI's are around 100 to 150, how do these $9.95 phones manage to have a
be so cheap? They must have a PLI with spike cutouts, etc, right?

Summary:
The main reasons you can buy $10 phones but $100 interfaces (DAAs):
1) DAAs have several relays rather than cheap molded switches
2) The phone is self-contained. As a result, max output can be done as a
byproduct of design (e.g. microphone saturates below limit). Required
isolation from power lines done by 1/16 inch of plastic shell, etc.
An unrestricted DAA has to deal with some fool connecting 110V AC or a 100 W
audio output stage to line, and still achieve isolation (until it melts
down).
3) Mass production. DAAs are a specialty item, mostly holdovers from when
the phone company was paranoid or predatory about what you connect. Modems
made in any quantity have it designed in as another $10 or $20 feature.

AT&T now makes a two chip set, called the 882A switched capacitor modem.
These two chips perform all the functions of a 212A or a CCITT V.22; 300 and
1200 baud; synchronous or asynchronous. Adding a third chip allows 2400 baud.
If you want to build a kit, it would be hard to find an easier one (just two
chips)! (For any further info, contact your AT&T sales rep, not me)

Exar also offers a 1200-baud modem chip set. They also publish an application
note that gives a schematic diagram for a auto-sense 300/1200-baud modem.
You could connect it to the phone line through a simple acoustic coupler
(Ciarcia, in his Circuit Cellar article, "A Build-it-yourself Modem for Under
$50", shows such a setup) or a direct-connect setup.
I once priced components for such a modem (with acoustic coupler). You should
be able to build it (if you have sufficient technical knowledge and ability)
for about $200-$250. You can write Exar at:

Hope this will be able to help you.
