OVERVOLTAGE & OVERCURRENT
PROTECTION FOR TELECOM LINE
MAIN APPLICATIONS
Any telecom equipment submitted to transient
overvoltages and lightning strikes such as :
Analog and ISDN line cards

DESCRIPTION
The CLP30-200B1 is designed to protect
telecommunication equipment. It provides both a
transient overvoltage protection and an
overcurrent protection.
The externalcomponents(balanced resistors, ring
relays contact, ...) needed by the CLP30-200B1
protection concept require very low power rating.
This results in a very cost effective protection
solution.

1.INTRODUCTION
The aim of this section is to show the behavior of
our new telecom line protection device.

Figure 1 is a simplified block diagram of a
subscriber line protection that is mainly used so
far.
This shows two different things :
■
A “primary protection” located on the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) eliminates coarsely the
high energy environmental disturbances (lightning transients and AC power mains disturbances) for which theITU-T-K20 requires a 4kV
10/700 µs test. This can be assumed either by
gas-tubes or silicon protection such as the
TLPxxM.
■
A “secondary protection” located on the line
card eliminates finely the remaining transients
that have not been totally suppressed by the
first stage. The ITU-T-K20 requires a 1 kV
10/700 µs test. At this stage, the protection is
managed by the CLP30-200B1.
2.STMicroelectronics CLP30-200B1CONCEPT
2.1 Evolution of the SLIC protection
Over the years, the performances of the SLICs
considerably increased and therefore the need of
the protection has also evolved.
The CLP30-200B1 is especially designed for the
protection of this new generation of SLIC. For this,
it is based on both overvoltage and overcurrent
protection modes.

Figure above shows the topology of a protected
analog subscriber line at the line card side.
■ A first stage based on CLP30-200B1 manages
the high power issued from the external surges.
When used in ringing mode, the CLP30-200B1
operates in voltage mode and provides a
symmetrical and bidirectional overvoltage
protection above 200 V on both TIP and RING
lines. When used in speech mode, the
CLP30-200B1 operates in current mode and
the activation current of the CLP30-200B1 is
adjusted by R
■
A second stage which is the external voltage
SENSE
.
reference device defines the firing threshold
voltage during the speech mode and also
assumes a residual power overvoltage
suppression. This stage can be either a fixed or
programmable device such as LCP1511D.
