HC5515
FN4235.6
ITU CO/PABX SLIC with Low Power
Standby
Features
The HC5515 is a subscriber line interface circuit which is
interchangeable with Ericsson’s PBL3860 for distributed
central office applications. Enhancements include immunity
to circuit latch-up during hot plug and absence of false
signaling in the presence of longitudinal currents.
• Programmable Current Feed (20mA to 60mA)
The HC5515 is fabricated in a High Voltage Dielectrically
Isolated (DI) Bipolar Process that eliminates leakage
currents and device latch-up problems normally associated
with junction isolated ICs. The elimination of the leakage
currents results in improved circuit performance for wide
temperature extremes. The latch free benefit of the DI
process guarantees operation under adverse transient
conditions. This process feature makes the HC5515 ideally
suited for use in harsh outdoor environments.
• Compatible with Ericsson’s PBL3860

Circuit Operation and Design Information
The HC5515 is a current feed voltage sense Subscriber Line
Interface Circuit (SLIC). This means that for short loop
applications the SLIC provides a programed constant current to
the tip and ring terminals while sensing the tip to ring voltage.
The following discussion separates the SLIC’s operation into
its DC and AC paths, then follows up with additional circuit
and design information.
Constant Loop Current (DC) Path
SLIC in the Active Mode
The DC path establishes a constant loop current that flows
out of tip and into the ring terminal. The loop current is
programmed by resistors RDC1, RDC2 and the voltage on
the RDC pin (Figure 12). The RDC voltage is determined by
the voltage across R1 in the saturation guard circuit. Under
constant current feed conditions, the voltage drop across R1
sets the RDC voltage to -2.5V. This occurs when current
flows through R1 into the current source I2. The RDC voltage
establishes a current (IRSN) that is equal to VRDC/(RDC1
+RDC2). This current is then multiplied by 1000, in the loop
current circuit, to become the tip and ring loop currents.
For the purpose of the following discussion, the saturation
guard voltage is defined as the maximum tip to ring voltage
at which the SLIC can provide a constant current for a given
battery and overhead voltage.

For loop resistances that result in a tip to ring voltage less than
the saturation guard voltage the loop current is defined as:
2.5V
I L = --------------------------------------  1000
R DC1 + R DC2
(EQ. 1)
where: IL = Constant loop current, and
RDC1 and RDC2 = Loop current programming resistors.
Capacitor CDC between RDC1 and RDC2 removes the VF
signals from the battery feed control loop. The value of CDC
is determined by Equation 2:

DC2
(EQ. 2)
where T = 30ms.
NOTE: The minimum CDC value is obtained if RDC1 = RDC2 .
Figure 13 illustrates the relationship between the tip to ring
voltage and the loop resistance. For a 0 loop resistance
both tip and ring are at VBAT/2. As the loop resistance
increases, so does the voltage differential between tip and
ring. When this differential voltage becomes equal to the
saturation guard voltage, the operation of the SLIC’s loop
feed changes from a constant current feed to a resistive
feed. The loop current in the resistive feed region is no
longer constant but varies as a function of the loop
resistance.

Notice from Figure 14 that for a loop resistance <1.2k (RSG

region and for resistances >1.2k the SLIC is operating in
the resistive feed region. Operation in the resistive feed
region allows long loop and off-hook transmission by
keeping the tip and ring voltages off the rails. Operation in
this region is transparent to the customer.

The Saturation Guard circuit (Figure 12) monitors the tip to
ring voltage via the transconductance amplifier A1. A1
generates a current that is proportional to the tip to ring
voltage difference. I1 is internally set to sink all of A1’s
current until the tip to ring voltage exceeds 12.5V. When the
tip to ring voltage exceeds 12.5V (with no RSG resistor) A1
supplies more current than I1 can sink. When this happens
A2 amplifies its input current by a factor of 12 and the current
through R1 becomes the difference between I2 and the
output current from A2. As the current from A2 increases, the
voltage across R1 decreases and the output voltage on RDC
decreases. This results in a corresponding decrease in the
loop current. The RSG pin provides the ability to increase the
saturation guard reference voltage beyond 12.5V. Equation
3 gives the relationship between the RSG resistor value and
the programmable saturation guard reference voltage:
RL = Loop resistance.

Overall system power is saved by configuring the SLIC in the
standby state when not in use. In the standby state the tip
and ring amplifiers are disabled and internal resistors are
connected between tip to ground and ring to VBAT. This
connection enables a loop current to flow when the phone
goes off-hook. The loop current detector then detects this
current and the SLIC is configured in the active mode for
voice transmission. The loop current in standby state is
calculated as follows:

The purpose of the transhybrid circuit is to remove the receive
signal (VRX) from the transmit signal (VTX), thereby preventing
an echo on the transmit side. This is accomplished by using an
external op amp (usually part of the CODEC) and by the
inversion of the signal from the 4-wire receive port (RSN) to the
4-wire transmit port (VTX). Figure 16 shows the transhybrid
circuit. The input signal will be subtracted from the output signal

Supervisory Functions
The loop current and the ring trip detector outputs are
multiplexed to a single logic output pin called DET. See
Table 1 to determine the active detector for a given logic
input. For further discussion of the logic circuitry see section
titled “Digital Logic Inputs”.
Before proceeding with an explanation of the loop current
detector and the longitudinal impedance, it is important to
understand the difference between a “metallic” and
“longitudinal” loop currents. Figure 17 illustrates 3 different
types of loop current encountered.
Case 1 illustrates the metallic loop current. The definition of
a metallic loop current is when equal currents flow out of tip
and into ring. Loop current is a metallic current.
FN4235.6
June 6, 2006
HC5515
Cases 2 and 3 illustrate the longitudinal loop current. The
definition of a longitudinal loop current is a common mode
current, that flows either out of or into tip and ring
simultaneously. Longitudinal currents in the on-hook state result
in equal currents flowing through the sense resistors R1 and
R2 (Figure 17). And longitudinal currents in the off-hook state
result in unequal currents flowing through the sense resistors
R1 and R2. Notice that for case 2, longitudinal currents flowing
away from the SLIC, the current through R1 is the metallic loop
current plus the longitudinal current; whereas the current
through R2 is the metallic loop current minus the longitudinal
current. Longitudinal currents are generated when the phone
line is influenced by magnetic fields (e.g., power lines).
Loop Current Detector
Figure 17 shows a simplified schematic of the loop current
detector. The loop current detector works by sensing the
metallic current flowing through resistors R1 and R2 . This
results in a current (IRD) out of the transconductance
amplifier (gm1) that is equal to the product of gm1 and the
metallic loop current. IRD then flows out the RD pin and
through resistor RD to VEE . The value of IRD is equal to:
I TIP – I RING
IL
I RD = ------------------------------------ = ---------600
300
(EQ. 24)
The IRD current results in a voltage drop across RD that is
compared to an internal 1.25V reference voltage. When the
voltage drop across RD exceeds 1.25V, and the logic is
configured for loop current detection, the DET pin goes low.
The hysteresis resistor RH adds an additional voltage
effectively across RD , causing the on-hook to off-hook
threshold to be slightly higher than the off-hook to on-hook
threshold.
Taking into account the hysteresis voltage, the typical value
of RD for the on-hook to off-hook condition is:
465
R D = -------------------------------------------------------------------------I ON – HOOK to OFF – HOOK
Taking into account the hysteresis voltage, the typical value
of RD for the off-hook to on-hook condition is:
375
R D = -------------------------------------------------------------------------I OFF – HOOK to ON – HOOK
(EQ. 26)
A filter capacitor (CD) in parallel with RD will improve the
accuracy of the trip point in a noisy environment. The value
of this capacitor is calculated using the following Equation:
T
C D = -------RD
(EQ. 27)
where: T = 0.5ms.
Ring Trip Detector
Ring trip detection is accomplished with the internal ring trip
comparator and the external circuitry shown in Figure 18.
The process of ring trip is initiated when the logic input pins
are in the following states: E0 = 0, C1 = 1 and C2 = 0. This
logic condition connects the ring trip comparator to the DET
output, and causes the Ringrly pin to energize the ring relay.
The ring relay connects the tip and ring of the phone to the
external circuitry in Figure 18. When the phone is on-hook
the DT pin is more positive than the DR pin and the DET
output is high. For off-hook conditions DR is more positive
than DT and DET goes low. When DET goes low, indicating
that the phone has gone off-hook, the SLIC is commanded
by the logic inputs to go into the active state. In the active
state, tip and ring are once again connected to the phone
and normal operation ensues.
Figure 18 illustrates battery backed unbalanced ring injected
ringing. For tip injected ringing just reverse the leads to the
phone. The ringing source could also be balanced.
NOTE: The DET output will toggle at 20Hz because the DT input is
not completely filtered by CRT. Software can examine the duty cycle
and determine if the DET pin is low for more that half the time, if so
the off-hook condition is indicated.

Table 1 is the logic truth table for the TTL compatible logic
input pins. The HC5515 has an enable input pin (E0) and
two control inputs pins (C1, C2).
Longitudinal Impedance
The enable pin E0 is used to enable or disable the DET
output pin. The DET pin is enabled if E0 is at a logic level 0
and disabled if E0 is at a logic level 1.
The feedback loop described in Figure 19(A, B) realizes the
desired longitudinal impedances from tip to ground and from
ring to ground. Nominal longitudinal impedance is resistive
and in the order of 22.
A combination of the control pins C1 and C2 is used to select
1 of the 4 possible operating states. A description of each
operating state and the control logic follow:
In the presence of longitudinal currents this circuit attenuates
the voltages that would otherwise appear at the tip and ring
terminals, to levels well within the common mode range of
the SLIC. In fact, longitudinal currents may exceed the
programmed DC loop current without disturbing the SLIC’s
VF transmission capabilities.
Open Circuit State (C1 = 0, C2 = 0)
In this state the SLIC is effectively off. All detectors and
both the tip and ring line drive amplifiers are powered
down, presenting a high impedance to the line. Power
dissipation is at a minimum.
The function of this circuit is to maintain the tip and ring
voltages symmetrically around VBAT/2, in the presence of
longitudinal currents. The differential transconductance
amplifiers GT and GR accomplish this by sourcing or sinking
the required current to maintain VC at VBAT/2.
Active State (C1 = 0, C2 = 1)
The tip output is capable of sourcing loop current and for
open circuit conditions is about -4V from ground. The ring
output is capable of sinking loop current and for open circuit
conditions is about VBAT +4V. VF signal transmission is
normal. The loop current detector is active, E0 determines if
the detector is gated to the DET output.
When a longitudinal current is injected onto the tip and ring
inputs, the voltage at VC moves from it’s equilibrium value
VBAT/2. When VC changes by the amount DVC, this change
appears between the input terminals of the differential

AC Transmission Circuit Stability
To ensure stability of the AC transmission feedback loop two
compensation capacitors CTC and CRC are required.
Figure 20 (Application Circuit) illustrates their use.
Recommended value is 2200pF.

returned to system ground.
The fuse resistors (RF) serve a dual purpose of being
nondestructive power dissipaters during surge and fuses
when the line in exposed to a power cross.
Power-Up Sequence
The HC5515 has no required power-up sequence. This is a
result of the Dielectrically Isolated (DI) process used in the
fabrication of the part. By using the DI process, care is no
longer required to insure that the substrate be kept at the
most negative potential as with junction isolated ICs.
Printed Circuit Board Layout
Care in the printed circuit board layout is essential for proper
operation. All connections to the RSN pin should be made as
close to the device pin as possible, to limit the interference
that might be injected into the RSN terminal. It is good
practice to surround the RSN pin with a ground plane.
The analog and digital grounds should be tied together at the
device.

where RHP = 330k.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
The HC5515’s thermal shutdown protection is invoked if a
fault condition on the tip or ring causes the temperature of
the die to exceed 160°C. If this happens, the SLIC goes into
a high impedance state and will remain there until the
temperature of the die cools down by about 20°C. The SLIC
will return back to its normal operating mode, providing the
fault condition has been removed.
Surge Voltage Protection
The HC5515 must be protected against surge voltages and
power crosses. Refer to “Maximum Ratings” TIPX and
RINGX terminals for maximum allowable transient tip and
ring voltages. The protection circuit shown in Figure 20
utilizes diodes together with a clamping device to protect tip
and ring against high voltage transients.
Positive transients on tip or ring are clamped to within a
couple of volts above ground via diodes D1 and D2 . Under
normal operating conditions D1 and D2 are reverse biased
and out of the circuit.
Negative transients on tip and ring are clamped to within a
couple of volts below ground via diodes D3 and D4 with the
help of a Surgector. The Surgector is required to block
conduction through diodes D3 and D4 under normal
