description
The TISP83121D is a dual-ga te reverse-blocking
unidirectional thyristor designed for the
protection of dual-voltage ringing SLICs
(Subscriber Line Interface Circuits) against
overvoltages on the telephone line caused by
lightning, a.c. power contact and induction.
The device chip is a four-layer NPNP silicon
thyristor structure which has an electrode
connection to every layer. For negative
overvoltage protection the TISP83121D is used
in a common anode configuration with the
voltage to be limited applied to the cathod e (K)
terminal and the negative reference potential
applied to the gate 1 (G1 ) terminal. For positive
overvoltage protection the TISP83121D is used
in a common cathode configuration with the
voltage to be limited applied to the anode (A)
terminal and the positive reference potential
applied to the gate 2 (G2) terminal.
The TISP83121D is a unidirectional protector
and to prevent reverse bias, requires the use of a
series diode between the protected line
conductor and the protector. Further, the gate
reference supply voltage requires an
appropriately poled series diode to prevent the
supply from being shorted when the
TISP83121D crowbars.
Under low level power cross conditions the
TISP83121D gate current will charge the gate
reference supply. If the reference su pply cannot
absorb the charging current its potential will
increase, possibly to damaging levels. To avoid
excessive voltage levels a clamp (zener or
avalanche breakdown diode) may be added in
shunt with the supply. Alternatively, a grounded
collector emitter -follower may be used to reduce
the charging current by the transistors H
value.
FE
This monolithic protection device is mad e with a
ion-implanted epi taxial-planar tech nology to give
a consistent protection performance and be
virtually transparent to the system in normal
operation.

with 350 V primary protection and a series conductor resistance (R) of 25Ω, the maximum conductor current
before the primar y protection ope rated would be 350/25 = 14 A or 28 A per line. For a total return current of
about 150 A the number of lines would be 150/28 = 5. At this current level, 5x28 = 140 A, the generator

voltage would be 140((25+25)/10+ 15) = 2 800 V. Another limitation is lon g term power cross. The long ter m
power cross capability of the TISP83121D is 3 A peak or 2.1 A rms. If the line conductor overcurrent
protection was given by a PTC resistor which switched at 0.2 A, the maximum number of conductors
becomes 2.1/0.2 = 10 or 5 lines.
battery supply impedance
In many designs, the batter y supply voltages are generated by switching mode power suppli es. This type of
power supply cannot be charged like a battery. Feeding a charging current to a switching mode power supply
will usually cause the supply to stop switching and the voltage to rise. The gate current of the TISP83121D is
a charging current for the supply. To avoid the supply voltage from rising and damaging the connected SLICs,
an avalanche diode voltage clamp can be connected across the supply (Figure 3. (A)).
Another approach is to reduce the gate charging current for the supply by a transistor buffer (Figure 3. (B)). If
the transistor gain was 50, a 200 mA gate current would be reduced to a supply charging current of
200/50 = 4 mA In both cases, the dissipatio n in the contr ol devices can be su bstantial an d power capability
needs to be taken into account in device selection.
