I will assume that you can solder, wire-wrap or whatever....

1) Decoders come in 2 flavors: "toll-quality" and "regular". The
toll-quality decoders (ie more $$$) have the following traits:

- better "talk-off". This is rejecting talking for DTMF tones
- better dial-tone rejection
- better "twist" reception. Twist is a stupid name for the amplitude
difference between the dual-tones. Usually this is around 2-3 dB.

THe leader of "toll-quality" chips is Teltone, with Mitel a close second.

2) The second-teir folks are good enough for home projects. The leader
there is Silicon Systems, with other chips like Sierra Semi.

If you want a schematic, then send me a SASE. I will provide circuits for
all known DTMF chips!
