Description
The L7591 Subscriber Line Interface Circuit (SLIC)
Protector is designed to protect line-feed circuitry
from fault-induced lightning and power-cross surge
pulses. If a fault current forces TIP and/or RING to a
more negative voltage than VS, current is conducted
through the trip circuit. When the specified trip current level is reached, transistors PNPN1 and/or
PNPN2 will turn on and "crowbar" the majority of the
current to ground. If similar pulses force TIP and/or
RING to a more positive state than ground, diodes
D1 and/or D2 will conduct the pulse to ground. The
L7591 SLIC Protector is available in an 8-pin, plastic
DIP (L7591AB) and in an 8-pin, plastic SONB package (L7591AS).

Absolute Maximum Ratings
(At 25 °C)
Stresses in excess of the Absolute Maximum Ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are
absolute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in
excess of those given in the operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to Absolute Maximum Ratings for
extended periods can adversely affect the device reliability.

Electrical Specifications
(TA = 25 °C)
The minimum and/or maximum limits specified for the parameters are based on the absolute system. The algebraic sign only applies to the direction of the parameter. These requirements apply to either the TIP or RING terminal; how e v er, the device is capab le of simultaneous Tip and Ring surges and continuous current, as noted below in
Tip and Ring leads. See Figure 3 and Table 5 for symbol and test condition definition.
