The physical construction of the device is two chips. The first chip is manufactured in Agere 90 V complementary bipolar integrated circuit (CBIC-S) technology. This chip contains the SLIC functionality: ■ ac transmission path ■ dc feedback and functions ■ Active dc current limit ■ Latched parallel input data interface with reset ■ Active mode loop supervision ■ Adjustable current limiter: — 10 mA to 45 mA programming range ■ Thermal shutdown ■ Adjustable loop closure detector with hysteresis: — 4 mA detect, 2.5 mA no detect minimum, upper limit of 15 mA detect — Hysteresis, typical 20% of programmed on-hook to off-hook threshold ■ Ring trip detector: — Single-pole filtering ■ Thermal shutdown protection with hysteresis ■ Line break switch will foldover into a low-current state under high-voltage fault conditions ■ Battery out-of-range monitor circuit: — All-off upon loss of battery (low battery condition) — All-off upon high battery (fault condition) ■ Longitudinal balance: — TR-57 balance ■ RFI/EMC-CISP-22 The second chip is manufactured in Agere dielectrically isolated 320 V bipolar CMOS diffused metal oxide semiconductor (BCDMOS III) technology. This chip contains the following: ■ Ring access relay ■ Scan clamp circuitry ■ Logic control ■ Ring trip ■ Thermal shutdown ■ Battery monitor circuit The LILAC family requires a +5 V and battery supply to operate. No –5 V supply is required. A battery switch is included that automatically, based on subscriber loop length, will apply either the primary higher-voltage battery or an optional lower-voltage auxiliary battery. Use of this feature will minimize off-hook power dissipation. * Telcordia Technologies is a trademark of Bell Communications Research, Inc. 4 Agere Systems Inc. Data Sheet July 2001 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Description (continued) Switching Behavior section of this data sheet for more details on switching behavior. The switch point is a function of the user-programmed dc current limit and the magnitude of the auxiliary battery. Switching from the high-voltage to low-voltage battery is quiet, without interruption of the dc loop current, thus preventing any impulse noise generation at the switch point. Design equations for the switch point and a graph showing loop/battery current versus loop resistance are given in the dc Characteristics in the Applications section of this data sheet. Voltage transients or impulse noise associated with ring cadence or ring trip are minimized or eliminated with the L9312, thus possibly eliminating the need for external zero-cross switching circuitry. If the user does not want to provide an auxiliary battery, the design of the L9312 battery switch allows use of a power control resistor at the auxiliary battery input. This scheme will not reduce short-loop, off-hook power dissipation, but it will control power dissipation on the SLIC by sharing power among the SLIC, power resistor, and dc loop. However, in most cases, without the auxiliary battery, the power dissipation capabilities of the 44-pin PLCC package are adequate so that the power control resistor will not be needed. Design equations for power control options are given in the dc Characteristics section of this data sheet. The L9312 is a forward battery only SLIC that supports on-hook transmission. A low-power scan mode is available to reduce idle mode on-hook power. This mode is realized by using a scan clamp circuit. In low-power scan mode: ■ The scan clamp circuitry is active. ■ Loop closure is active. ■ All ac transmission, dc feed, and other supervision circuits, including ring trip, are shut down. ■ Thermal shutdown is active. ■ Low battery sense shutdown is on. ■ On-hook transmission is disabled. A forward disconnect mode, where all circuits are turned off and power is denied to the loop, is also provided. During this mode, the NSTAT supervision output will read on-hook. In the ring mode, the line break switches are opened and the power ring access switches are closed. In this mode, the ring trip detector in the SLIC is active and all other detectors and the tip/ring drive amplifiers are turned off to conserve power. Make-before-break or break-before-make switching is achievable during ring cadence or ring trip. Toggling directly into or directly out of the ring mode table will give make-before-break switching. To achieve breakbefore-make switching, go to an intermediate all-off state (use forward disconnect state) before entering the ring mode or before leaving the ring mode. See the Agere Systems Inc. Both the ring trip and loop closure supervision functions are included. Loop closure threshold is set by applying a voltage source to the LCTH input. The voltage source may be an external voltage source or derived from the SLIC VREF output. A programmable external voltage source may be used to provide software control of the loop closure threshold. Design equations for the loop closure threshold are given in the Supervision section of this data sheet. Hysteresis is included. The ring trip detector requires only a single-pole filter at the input. This will minimize the required number of external components. To help minimize device power dissipation, the ring trip detector is active only during the power ring mode. Ring trip and loop supervision status outputs appear in a common output pin, NSTAT. NSTAT is an unlatched supervision output; thus, an interrupt-based control scheme may be used. The dc current limit is set in the active modes via an applied voltage source. The voltage source may be an external voltage source. The voltage may be derived via a resistor divider network from the V REF SLIC output. A programmable external voltage source may be used to provide software control of the loop closure threshold. Design equations for this feature are given in the dc Characteristics section of this data sheet. Programming range is 10 mA to 45 mA. Overhead is programmable in the active modes via an applied voltage source. The voltage source may be an external voltage source or derived via a resistor divider network from the VREF SLIC output. A programmable external voltage source may be used to provide software control of the overhead voltage. The rate of change of the overhead voltage may be controlled by use of a single external capacitor at the CF1 node. If the rate of change is uncontrolled, there may be audible noise associated with this transition. Design equations for this feature are given in the dc Characteristics section of this data sheet. If the overhead is not programmed via a resistor, the device develops a default overhead adequate for a 3.14 dBm overload into 900 Ω. For the default overhead, OVH is connected to ground. 5 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Description (continued) Data control is via a parallel latched data control scheme. Data latches are edge-level sensitive. Data is latched in when the LATCH control input goes low. While LATCH is low, the user cannot change the data control inputs. The data control inputs may only be changed when LATCH is high. Incorporation of data latches allows for data control information and loop supervision information to be passed to and from the SLIC via data buses rather than on a per-line basis, thus minimizing routing complexity and board routing area. A device RESET pin is included. When this pin is low, the logic inputs are overridden and the device will be reset into SLIC forward disconnect state and the switch into the all-off state. NSTAT is forced to the on-hook condition when RESET is low. The overall device protection is achieved through a combination of an external secondary protector, along with an integrated thermal shutdown feature, a battery voltage window comparator, the break switch foldback characteristic, and the dc/dynamic current-limit response of the break and tip return switches. For protection against long duration fault conditions, such as power cross and tip/ring shorts, a thermal shutdown mechanism is integrated into the device. Upon reaching the thermal shutdown temperature, the device will enter an all-off mode. Upon cooling, the device will re-enter the state it was in prior to thermal shutdown. Hysteresis is built in to prevent oscillation. During this mode, the NSTAT supervision output overrides the actual loop status and forces an off-hook. The line break switches and tip return switch are current-limited switches. The current-limit mechanism limits current through the switch to the specified dc current limit under low frequency or dc faults (power cross and/or tip/ring to ground short) and limits the current to the specified dynamic current-limit response under transient faults, such as lightning. A foldover characteristic is incorporated into the line break switches within their I-V curve. Under voltage conditions higher than the normal operating range, such as may be seen under an extreme lightning or power cross fault condition, the line break switch will fold over into a low-current state. This feature allows for more relaxed specifications on the ring side protector, thus allowing for higher-voltage ringing signals. (Tip side protector is limited by the requirements on the tip return switch.) This feature is part of the overall device protection scheme. 6 Data Sheet July 2001 This device uses a window comparator to force an alloff condition if the battery drops below, or rises above, a specified threshold. Upon loss of VBAT1, the L9312 will automatically enter an all-off mode. The device will enter this mode if the magnitude of the battery drops below a nominal 15 V and will remain in this mode until the magnitude of the battery rises above a typical 20 V. During this mode, the NSTAT supervision output will override the actual hook status and force an off-hook or logic low. When the device is in the scan mode, because of the design of the scan clamp circuit, common-mode current can be forced into or out of the battery supply. Because of this, and depending upon power supply design, the magnitude of the battery may rise above the maximum operating condition during extended longitudinal currents or during a power cross fault condition. To prevent excess current from being forced into or out of the battery, if the magnitude of the battery rises typically above 75 V to 80 V, the device will enter an all-off state. The device will remain in the all-off state until the magnitude of the battery drops into the normal operating range. During this mode, the NSTAT supervision output will override the actual hook status and force an off-hook or logic low. See the Protection section of this data sheet for more details on device protection. Please contact your Agere Account Representative for a recommended secondary protection device. Longitudinal balance is consistent with North American TR-57 requirements. Transmit and receive gains have been chosen to minimize the number of external components required in the SLIC-codec ac interface, regardless of the choice of codec. The L9312 uses a voltage feed, current sense architecture; thus, the transmit gain is a transconductance. The L9312 transconductance is set via a single external resistor, and this device is designed for optimal performance with a transconductance set at 300 V/A. The L9312 offers an option for a single-ended to differential receive gain of either 8 or 2. These options are mask programmable at the factory and are selected by choice of part number. A receive gain of 8 is more appropriate when choosing a first-generation type codec where termination impedance, hybrid balance, and overall gains are set by external analog filters. The higher gain is typically required for synthesization of complex termination impedance. Agere Systems Inc. L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Data Sheet July 2001 Description (continued) The RCVP/RCVN SLIC inputs are floating inputs. If there is not feedback from RCVP/RCVN to VITR, RCVP/RCVN may be directly coupled to the codec output. If there is feedback, RCVP/RCVN must be ac-coupled to the codec output. A receive gain of 2 is more appropriate when choosing a third-generation type codec. Third-generation codecs will synthesize termination impedance, set hybrid balance, and set overall gains. To accomplish these functions, third-generation codecs typically have both analog and digital gain filters. For optimal signal-tonoise performance, it is best to operate the codec at a higher gain level. If the SLIC then provides a high gain, the SLIC output may be saturated causing clipping distortion of the signal at tip and ring. To avoid this situation, with a higher-gain SLIC, external resistor dividers are used. These external components are not necessary with the lower gain offered by the L9312. This device is packaged in a 44-pin PLCC surfacemount package.

Data Sheet July 2001 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Applications Total PD = maximum battery x (maximum current limit) (current limit accuracy) + SLIC quiescent power. dc Characteristics For the L9312, the worst-case SLIC on-hook active quiescent power is 100 mW. Thus, Power Control Under normal device operating conditions, thermal design must ensure that the device temperature does not rise above the thermal shutdown. Power dissipation is highest with higher battery voltages, with higher current limit, and under shorter dc loop conditions. Higher ambient temperature will reduce thermal margin. Power control may be done in several ways, by use of the integrated automatic battery switch and a lowervoltage auxiliary battery or by use of a power control resistor with single battery operation. The thermal capability of the 44-pin PLCC package is sufficient to allow for single battery operation without the power control resistor when the device is used under lowerpower operating conditions. Power Derating Operating temperature range, maximum current limit, maximum battery voltage, minimum dc loop length, and protection resistors’ values, number of PCB board layers, and airflow, will influence the overall thermal performance. The still-air thermal resistance of the 44-pin PLCC package is typically 38 °C/W for a two-layer board with 0 LFPM airflow. The L9312 will enter thermal shutdown at a temperature of 150 °C. The thermal design should ensure that the SLIC does not reach this temperature under normal operating conditions. For this example, assume a maximum ambient operating temperature of 85 °C, a maximum current limit of 30 mA, and a maximum battery of –56 V. Further assume a (worst-case) minimum dc loop of 20 Ω for wire resistance, 50 Ω protection resistors, and 200 Ω for the handset. Include the effects of parameter tolerance in these calculations. TTSD – TAMBIENT(max) = allowed thermal rise 150 °C – 85 °C = 65 °C Allowed thermal rise = package thermal impedance x SLIC power dissipation 65 °C = 38 °C/W x SLIC power dissipation Allowed SLIC power dissipation (PD) = 1.71 W Thus, in this example, if the total power dissipated on the SLIC is less than 1.71 W, it will not enter thermal shutdown. Total SLIC power is calculated: Agere Systems Inc. Total off-hook power = (ILOOP)(1.05) x (VBATAPPLIED) + SLIC quiescent power Total off-hook power = (0.030 A)(1.05) x (52) + 100 mW Total off-hook power = 1.864 W The power dissipated in the SLIC is the total power dissipation less the power that is dissipated in the loop. SLIC PD = total power – loop power Loop off-hook power = (ILOOP x 1.05)2 x (RLOOPdcmin + 2RP + RHANDSET) Loop off-hook power = {(0.030 A)(1.05)}2 x (20 Ω + 100 Ω + 200 Ω) Loop off-hook power = 317.5 mW SLIC off-hook power = total off-hook power – loop offhook power SLIC off-hook power = 1.864 W – 0.3175 W SLIC off-hook power = 1.5465 W < 1.71 W Thus, under the operating conditions of this example, the thermal capability of the 44-pin PLCC package is adequate to ensure that the L9312 will not be driven into thermal shutdown and no additional power control measures are needed. If, however, for a given set of operating conditions, the thermal capabilities of the package are not adequate to ensure the SLIC is driven into thermal shutdown, then one of the power control techniques described below should be used. Additionally, even if the thermal capability of the 44-pin PLCC package is adequate to ensure that the L9312 will not be driven into thermal shutdown, the battery switch technique described below can be used to reduce total short-loop power dissipation. Automatic Battery Switch Use of the automatic battery switch controls power dissipation by automatically switching to the lower-voltage auxiliary battery under short dc loop conditions, thus reducing the short-loop power that is generated. This has the advantage of not only controlling device temperature rise, but reducing overall power dissipation. The switch will automatically apply the appropriate battery to support the dc loop. No logic control is needed to control the switch. Switching is quiet, and the dc loop current will not be interrupted when switching between batteries. The lower-voltage auxiliary battery is connected to the VBAT2/PRW package pin. 23 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Data Sheet July 2001 Applications (continued) 0.030 ILOOPdc dc Characteristics (continued) 0.026 The equation governing the switch point is as follows: 0.024 V BAT2 – 3.0 RLOOP = ----------------------------------- – 2RP – Rdc I LIM 0.022 The VBAT2 voltage must be chosen properly so that the power dissipation is minimized. When the voltage at pin PR equals VBAT2 + 1 V + (50 Ω x ILOOP), at least 98% of the loop current minus 2.5 mA flows into VBAT2 and 2.5 mA + 2% of the loop current plus quiescent current flows into VBAT1.

L9312 Loop/Battery Current (with Battery Switch) vs. Loop Resistance Then, for any loop resistance from 0 Ω to 640 Ω, the worst-case VBAT1 and VBAT2 currents will be: Power Control Resistor IBAT1 = 1.39 mA + 2.5 mA + 0.02 x (42 mA – 2.5 mA) = 4.68 mA IBAT2 = (0.98) x 42 mA = 38.71 mA Total max power = 1.641 W (V BAT = –48 V) Note that to minimize power statistically, this may not be the best choice for VBAT2. Over a large number of lines, power is minimized according to the statistical distribution of loop resistance. Device temperature rise may be controlled with use of a single battery voltage by use of a power control resistor. This technique will reduce power dissipation on the chip, by sharing the total power not dissipated in the loop between the L9312 and the power control resistor. It does not, however, reduce the total power consumed, as does use of the auxiliary battery. The power control resistor is connected from the primary battery to the VBAT2/PWR node of the device. The magnitude of the power control resistor must be low enough to ensure that sufficient power is dissipated on the resistor to ensure the L9312 does not exceed its thermal shutdown temperature. At the same time, the more power that is dissipated by the power control resistor, the higher the resistor’s power rating must be, and thus, the more costly the resistor. The following equations are used to optimize the choice (magnitude and power rating) of the power control resistor. 24 Agere Systems Inc. L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Data Sheet July 2001 Applications (continued) Power Control Resistor (continued) Since this device is dc unbalanced, the tip side overhead will remain typically at –2 V and the ring side overhead will vary with the voltage at VOH. For the total tip/ ring default overhead of 5.5 V, the ring overhead is typically 3.5 V. Again assume: Overhead Voltage TTSD – TAMBIENT(max) = allowed thermal rise 150 °C – 85 °C = 65 °C Overhead is programmable in the active mode via an applied voltage source at the device’s OVH control input. The voltage source may be an external voltage source or derived via a resistor divider network from the VREF SLIC output or an external voltage source. A programmable external voltage source may be used to provide software control of the overhead voltage. dc Characteristics (continued) Allowed thermal rise = package thermal impedance x SLIC power dissipation 65 °C = 38 °C/W x SLIC power dissipation Allowed SLIC power dissipation (PD) = 1.71 W This time, assume a maximum ambient operating temperature of 85 °C, a maximum current limit of 45 mA (including tolerance), and a maximum battery of –56 V. Again, assume a (worst-case) minimum dc loop of 0 Ω and that 50 Ω protection resistors are used. Assume the handset is 200 Ω: Total PD = (56 V x 45 mA) + 0.100 W Total PD = 2.34 W + 0.100 W Total PD = 2.4375 W Again, the power dissipated in the SLIC is the total power dissipation less the power that is dissipated in the loop. SLIC PD = total power – loop power Loop power = (ILIM)2 x (RLOOPdcmin + 2R P + RHANDSET) Loop power = (45 mA)2 x (0 Ω + 100 Ω + 200 Ω) Loop power = 0.6075 W SLIC power = 2.4375 W – 0.6075 W SLIC power = 1.83 W > 1.5 W Under these extreme conditions, thermal margin is increased via an external power control resistor. The power dissipated in the power control resistor is calculated by: PPRW = V LOOP ) 2 ( V BAT – V ROH – ---------------------------------------------------------------------R PWR where in this example: PPRW is power in the resistor VBAT = –52 V VLOOP = ILIM * (R LOOP + RPROT) VROH is the ring-side overhead voltage of the SLIC. Agere Systems Inc. The overhead voltage (VOH) is related to the OVH voltage by: VOH = 5.5 V + 5 x VOVH (V) Overall accuracy is determined by the accuracy of the voltage source and the accuracy of any external resistor divider network used and voltage offsets due to the specified input bias current. If a resistor divider from VREF is used, lower magnitude resistor will give a more accurate result due to a lower offset associated with the input bias current; however, lower value resistors will also draw more power from VREF. The sum of programming resistors should be between 75 kΩ and 200 kΩ. Note that a default overhead voltage of 5.5 V is achieved by shorting input pin OVH to analog ground. Internally, the SLIC needs typically 2 V from each supply rail to bias the amplifier circuitry. This can be thought of as an internal saturation voltage. The default overhead provides sufficient headroom for on-hook transmission of a 3.14 dBm signal into 900 Ω. 2 V 3.14 = 10 log --------0.9 V = 1.36 V, which is required over and above the internal saturation voltage for signal swing. 1.36 V + 4 V = 5.36 V < 5.5 V default overhead; thus, a 3.14 dBm into 900 Ω signal is passed without clipping distortion. The overhead voltage accuracy achieved will not only be affected by the accuracy of the internal SLIC circuitry, but also by the accuracy of the voltage source and the accuracy of any external resistor divider network used. 25 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Applications (continued) dc Characteristics (continued) dc Loop Current Limit In the active modes, dc current limit is programmable via an applied voltage source at the device’s VPROG control input. The voltage source may be an external voltage source or derived via a resistor divider network from the VREF SLIC output or an external voltage source. A programmable external voltage source may be used to provide software control of the loop current limit. The loop current limit (ILIM) is related to the VPROG voltage by: Data Sheet July 2001 The current limit with the SLIC set in an active mode will be different from the current limit with the SLIC set in the scan mode. This is due to differences in the scan clamp circuit versus the active tip/ring drive amplifiers. The scan mode current limit is fixed and is a function of the internal design of the scan clamp circuit. The steady-state scan mode current limit will be a typical 40 mA to 50 mA and may, over temperature and process, vary typically from 30 mA to 110 mA. The scan clamp current limit will typically settle to its steady-state value within 300 ms. Loop Range The dc loop range is calculated using: V BAT – V OH ---------------------------------I LOOP ILIM (mA) = 50 x VPROG (V) RL = Note that the overall current-limit accuracy achieved will not only be affected by the specified accuracy of the internal SLIC current-limit circuit (accuracy associated with the 50 term), but also by the accuracy of the voltage source and the accuracy of any external resistor divider network used and voltage offsets due to the specified input bias current. If a resistor divider from VREF is used, a lower magnitude resistor will give a more accurate result due to a lower offset associated with the input bias current; however, lower value resistors will also draw more power from VREF. The sum of the two resistors in the resistor divider should be between 75 kΩ and 200 kΩ. Offset at VPROG and VREF accuracies are specified in Table 6. VBAT1 is used because we are calculating the maximum loop range. The loop resistance value where the device automatically switches to VBAT2 is calculated in the Automatic Battery Switch section of this data sheet. The above equation describes the active mode steadystate current-limit response. There will be a transient response of the current-limit circuit (with the device in the active mode) upon an on- to off-hook transition. Typical active mode transient current-limit response is given in Table 14. Table 14. Typical Active Mode On- to Off-Hook Tip/ Ring Current-Limit Transient Response Parameter dc Loop Current: Active Mode RLOOP = 100 Ω On- to Off-hook Transition t < 5 ms dc Loop Current: Active Mode RLOOP = 100 Ω On- to Off-hook Transition t < 50 ms dc Loop Current: Active Mode RLOOP = 100 Ω On- to Off-hook Transition t < 300 ms 26 Value Unit ILIM + 60 mA – 2RP – Rdc Battery Feed The L9312 operates in a dc unbalanced mode. In the forward active state, under open circuit (on-hook) conditions, with the default overhead chosen, the tip to ring voltage will be a nominal 5.5 V less than the battery. This is the overhead voltage. The tip and ring overhead is achieved by biasing ring a nominal 3.5 V above battery and by biasing tip a nominal 2.0 V below ground. During off-hook conditions, some dc resistance will be applied to the subscriber loop as a function of the physical loop length, protection, and telephone handset. As the dc resistance decreases from infinity (on-hook) to some finite value (off-hook), the tip to ring voltage will decrease as shown in Figure 12.

The ring to ground voltage will also decrease with a slope corresponding to onehalf the internal dc feed resistance of the SLIC, until the SLIC reaches the current-limit region of operation. At that point, the slope of the ring to ground voltage will increase to the sum of one half the internal dc feed resistance plus approximately 10 kΩ. The dc feed characteristic can be described by: Region 1: on-hook and low loop currents: the slope corresponds to the dc feed resistance of the SLIC (plus any series resistance). The open-circuit voltage is the battery voltage less the overhead voltage of the device. Region 2: current limit: the dc current is limited to a value determined by VPROG. This region of the dc template has a high resistance (10 kΩ). Notice that the I-V curve is uninterrupted when the power is shifted from the high-voltage battery to the low-voltage battery (if auxiliary battery option is used). This is shown in Figure 11 in the Automatic Battery Switch section.

See Table 2 for more details. Loop closure threshold current (I LCTH) is set by: where: RLCTH is a resistor from the LCTH node to ground or a voltage source.

To help prevent false glitches, the off-hook to on-hook threshold will be a typical 20% lower than the corresponding on-hook to offhook threshold. VBAT2 = –24 V. ILIM = 40 mA (R PROG = 66.5 kΩ). Figure 13. L9312 Loop Current vs. Loop Voltage Agere Systems Inc. 27 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Supervision (continued) Ring Trip Ring trip is set by the value of RS1. The ring trip threshold at the ring trip inputs is ±2.5 V minimum, ±3.5 V maximum. A resistor value of 400 Ω, as shown in Figure 4, will set the ring trip current threshold to ±7.5 mA typical. Ring trip is asserted upon entering the ringing mode until the second zero crossing of ringing. This is either a positive-going zero crossing (between –40 V and –30 V at –50 V VBAT) or a negative-going zero crossing (between –10 V and –20 V at –50 V VBAT). The different threshold for positive-going and negative-going zero crossings is the result of hysteresis of approximately 20 V. The act of turning on the switch may or may not produce a ringing zero crossing, therefore, there may be a delay of up to almost one cycle of ringing or 50 ms until NSTAT is high. Ring trip will not be asserted unless the ring trip threshold is exceeded for two zero crossings. This is either a positive-going zero crossing (between –40 V and –30 V at –50 V VBAT) or a negative-going zero crossing (between –10 V and –20 V at –50 V VBAT). The different threshold for positive-going and negative-going zero crossings is the result of hysteresis of approximately 20 V. Note that since the ringing voltage is monitored at RSW, one zero crossing can occur at switch turn-on depending on initial conditions. Ring trip is asserted immediately if the ring trip input is 15 V ± 3 V. Switching Behavior The solid-state ring relay in the L9312 device is able to provide either make-before-break or break-beforemake timing with respect to switching into and out of the ring mode. If switching is done directly into and out of the ring mode, the design of the L9312 will give make-before-break switching with respect to both the ring and tip side switches. To achieve break-beforemake switching, the user should via software control enter an intermediate all-off mode when switching into and out of the ring mode. The all-off state should be held a minimum of 8 ms. Make-Before-Break Operation The break switches are constructed from DMOS transistors. The tip side ring return is also a DMOS transis- 28 Data Sheet July 2001 tor. Because the on resistance of the break switches is less than the tip side ring return switch, the break switches are physically bigger. This implies a larger gate to source capacitance, with inherently slower switching speeds since it will take longer to charge or discharge the gate to source capacitance of the break switches (to change the state of the switch). The ring access switch is a pnpn type device. The pnpn device has inherently faster switching speeds than any of the DMOS type switches. Going from the active to ring mode, the smaller tip side ring return switch and the pnpn ring access switch will change states before the larger break switches. Thus, the ring contacts are made before the line break switches are broken: make-before-break operation. Going from the ring mode to active or scan, the natural tendency is for the smaller tip side ring return DMOS to break or open, before the larger DMOS can turn on. This would not be make-before-break operation on the tip side. Thus, circuitry is added to speed up charging of the tip break switch, to speed up the turn on of that switch to give make-before-break operation on the tip side. On the ring side, going from the ring mode to the active or scan mode, the pnpn will not turn off until the ring current drops below the hold current of the pnpn device (which is typically 500 µA); this is effectively zero current for zero current turn off. This can take up to onehalf cycle of ringing to occur. With this inherent delay in switching by the pnpn ring access switch, the break switches will make contact before the ring access switch breaks contact; so again, make-before-break switching is achieved. With the make-before-break switch, there will be a period of time (depending on ring signal frequency but measured in tens of microseconds) where all four switch contacts will be on. This means that the ring generator will be connected through the current-limited break switches to the input of the SLIC device. Current will be limited by the break switch current limit, and this will not damage the SLIC. This current may, however, cause a false glitch at the NSTAT supervision output that will need to be digitally filtered. The board designer should consider any ramifications of this state on the overall system or ring generator and battery design. The major benefit of make-before-break switching is that it will minimize any impulse noise generated during ringing cadence. In many cases when operating the switch in the make-before-break mode, no special design to switch at zero current and voltage crossing is required. Impulse noise generation when using solidstate relays is documented in the Impulse Noise and the L758X Series of Solid State Switches Application Note. Agere Systems Inc. L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Data Sheet July 2001 Supervision (continued) Break-Before-Make Operation To achieve break-before-make, use the logic control sequence device switching as shown below. Table 15. Break-Before-Make Logic Control Sequence Device Switching State Break Switches Ring Switches closed open open open open open closed open closed open Active/Scan Disconnect (all-off) Ring Disconnect (all-off) Active/Scan Comment — hold >8 ms — hold >8 ms — The advantage of break-before-make operation is that it eliminates the current spike when the ring access relay changes state. The disadvantage is that it forces an all-off state. Under inductive ringing loads, due to Ldi/dt effects, it may cause a reduction in the impulse noise performance compared to make-before-break switching. ally, the break switches have a foldback characteristic that enables them to survive a higher on-state voltage (320 V) than the tip ring return switch (130 V), which does not have the foldback characteristic. (See OnState Switch I-V Characteristics section.) The ring access switch is a pnpn type device. Additionally, the ring side will see the full power ring voltage, and the tip side switch will see the power ringing voltage that is attenuated by the ringing load, subscriber loop, feed resistor, and protection resistors. Because of these differences, the protection requirements on the tip side are different from the protection requirements on the ring side. Thus, it is recommended that an asymmetrical (with respect to tip and ring) overvoltage protection scheme be used. Please contact your Agere Account Representative for a recommended protection device. Additionally, a series protection resistor with a fusible characteristic or a PTC resistor is recommended to limit current during lightning and power cross faults. A minimum 50 Ω is recommended in tip and ring. The overall device protection is achieved through a combination of the external overvoltage and overcurrent devices, along with the integrated thermal shutdown feature, the integrated window comparator, the break switch foldback characteristic, and the dc/dynamic current-limit response of the break and tip return switches. Protection Active Mode Response at PT/PR External Protection An external overvoltage clamp is required to ensure that the off-state and on-state ratings of the solid-state break switch and solid-state ring access switch are not exceeded. The solid-state switches in the L9312 are constructed in a dielectrically isolated high-voltage technology. Because of the high device-to-device isolation that is inherent in the dielectric isolation, only a tip to ground and a ring to ground clamp is required. A tip to ring overvoltage clamp is not needed. A foldback or crowbar type device is recommended to minimize power across the solid-state switches under a fault condition. The break switches and tip return switch are constructed from DMOS transistors. Because the on resistance of the break switches is less than the tip side ring return switch, the break switches are physically bigger and have a higher current handling capability. Addition- Agere Systems Inc. The line break switches and tip return switch are current-limited switches. The current-limit mechanism limits current through the switch to the specified dc current limit under low frequency or dc faults (power cross and/or tip-ring to ground short) and limits the current to the specified dynamic current-limit response under transient faults, such as lightning. During a lightning fault (typical 1000 V 10 x 700 µs applied surge), the current-limited line break switches will pass typically 2.5 A for 0.5 µs before forcing the break switches off. Once in the off state, the external protection device must ensure that the off-state voltage rating of 320 V is not exceeded. Note that the maximum differential voltage is the positive zener rating of the protection device less the battery voltage, which will appear on the line feed side of the switch. 29 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Protection (continued) Active Mode Response at PT/PR (continued) For a lower-voltage power cross, whose maximum peak voltage is below the foldback voltage breakpoint 1 (V1), the current-limited break switch will pass the current equal to the dc current limit. The current limit has a negative temperate coefficient, so as the device continues to pass current, the current limit will reduce with increasing device temperature. Ultimately, the device will reach the thermal shutdown temperature and the thermal shutdown mechanism will force an all-off state, which will stop current flow and begin device cooling. In the all-off state, the external protection device ensures that the switch off-state voltage rating is not exceeded. Once the device cools significantly, the break switches will turn on, and current will begin to flow again, until temperature forces the all-off state. This will continue until the fault condition is gone. Sneak-under surge is a voltage surge that is just below the clamping threshold of the secondary protection device. For this type of surge, when the surge voltage is below the foldback voltage breakpoint 1, operation is as described above. When the surge voltage rises above the foldback voltage breakpoint 1 (V1), but is still less than the secondary protector clamping voltage, the line break switch will crowbar into the high-impedance region of its I-V characteristic and reduce current to the specified ILIMIT2 value. For surges whose magnitude range above the trigger of the external secondary protector, the device will operate as described above for the portion of the surge below the secondary protector trigger voltage. When the voltage rises above the external secondary protector’s trigger voltage, the secondary protector will crowbar on shunting fault current to ground and reducing the tip/ring voltage seen at the device. In the active mode, the external secondary protector must ensure that the off-state voltage ratings of the ring access and ring return switch are not exceeded. Normally, the ring return switch is connected to ground on the TRING side and to the protector on the PT side; thus, the protector on the tip side in the active mode must clamp at less than 320 V. As will be seen in the Ring Mode Response at PT/PR section, during the power ringing mode, this clamp voltage on the tip side is significantly less than 320 V. Data Sheet July 2001 and on the PR side, the maximum turn-on voltage of the secondary protector. The ring access switch is of pnpn construction. Thus, if the off-state voltage rating of the ring access switch is exceeded, the device will crowbar into a low-impedance state. This will cause a surge into the ring generator and can cause the onstate current rating of the switch to be exceeded. The difference of the battery plus peak negative ring signal voltage less the maximum turn on of the secondary protector must not exceed the off-state voltage rating of the ring access switch. Additionally, as the secondary protector will see the power ring signal, the minimum turn-on rating of the secondary protector must be high enough to not clamp the ring signal and cause clipping distortion. The ring side will see the fullpower ring voltage, and the tip side switch will see the power ringing voltage that is attenuated by the ringing load, subscriber loop, feed resistor, and protection resistors; thus, the ring side secondary protector requires a higher clamping voltage than the tip side. Ring Mode Response at PT/PR In this mode, the line break switches are off and the ring access and ring return switch is on. The secondary protectors must ensure that the minimum off-state voltage rating of the line break switches is not exceeded. Note that the maximum differential voltage is the positive zener rating of the protection device less the battery voltage which will appear on the line feed side of the switch. The ring access switch is a pnpn type switch. This switch has no internal current limiting. Thus, through external current limit, the user must ensure that the surge ratings (both dynamic and dc for lightning and power cross faults) are not exceeded. A minimum 400 Ω ring feed resistor is recommended. This resistor also will set the ring trip threshold. See the Ring Trip section within the Supervision section of this data sheet. During a lightning fault (typical 1000 V 10 x 700 µs applied surge), the current-limited tip return switch will pass, typically 2.5 A for 0.5 µs before forcing the switch off. Once in the off state, the external protection device must ensure that the off-state voltage rating of 320 V is not exceeded. Normally, the ring access switch is connected to the ring generator on the RRING side and to the protector on the PR side; thus, on one side of the switch there is the battery voltage and the peak negative ring signal, 30 Agere Systems Inc. Data Sheet July 2001 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications Protection (continued) Ring Mode Response at PT/PR (continued) For power cross for lower-voltage faults, the ring return switch will behave like the line break switches. However, tip return switch does not have the foldback clamping feature that is included in the line break switches; thus, in the on state, the voltage seen by the ring return switch before damage is less than the line break switches. The on-state voltage of the line break switches can go up to the off-state voltage rating. The ring return voltage should see less than 130 V in the on state. Thus, the secondary protector on the ring side should have a maximum crowbar voltage of 130 V. With typical protection device tolerance, this implies a minimum clamping voltage of 100 V. The users should ensure, based on minimum loop length, ringing load, and peak ring signal voltage, that the ring signal is not distorted by the (lower) voltage rating of the tip-side protector. Internal Tertiary Protection The external secondary protector and switch current limit protect the 320 V high-voltage switches from lightning and power cross conditions. Integrated into the LILAC IC is an internal tertiary protection scheme that is meant to protect the 90 V SLIC portion of the device from residue fault current and voltages that may be passed through the switches to the actual SLIC inputs. This scheme includes an internal diode bridge voltage clamp and a battery out of range detector that forces an all-off condition if the battery voltage falls high or low out of the specified operating range. Diode Bridge High common-mode currents, as may be seen under a fault condition, will be sensed and reduced to zero by the battery monitor circuit (see Battery Out of Range Detector: High [Magnitude] section). However, this detector will not prevent longitudinal current from flowing into battery. The battery supply must have the ability to sink longitudinal currents as specified in the longitudinal current capability requirement in Table 6. Battery Out of Range Detector: High (Magnitude) This feature is useful in remote power applications where a dc-dc converter with limited ability to sink current is used as the primary battery supply. Under a fault condition, the diode bridge will want to sink current into the battery. As a function of the dc-dc converter input capacitance and design, this current may cause the magnitude of supply voltage to rise and ultimately cause damage to the supply. To prevent damage to the supply, the LILAC device will monitor the battery supply voltage. If the magnitude of the battery rises above the maximum specified operating battery, the battery out of range detector will force the line break switches and ring access switches into an all-off state, and will also force the SLIC into the disconnect state. This will stop the current flow into the battery, preventing damage to the battery fault conditions. NSTAT is forced low during this mode of operation. Battery Out of Range Detector: Low (Magnitude) The LILAC device will monitor the battery supply voltage. If the magnitude of the battery drops below the minimum specified operating battery, the battery out of range detector will force the line break switches and ring access switches into an all-off state, and will also force the SLIC into the disconnect state. NSTAT is forced low during this mode of operation. The internal inputs of the actual SLIC chip are clamped to ground and to VBAT1 by an integrated diode bridge. Residual positive fault currents are clamped to ground and residual negative fault currents are clamped to battery. This implies that the battery have some current sinking capability. Agere Systems Inc. 31 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications ac Applications ac Parameters There are four key ac design parameters. Termination impedance is the impedance looking into the 2-wire port of the line card. It is set to match the impedance of the telephone loop in order to minimize echo return to the telephone set. Transmit gain is measured from the 2-wire port to the PCM highway, while receive gain is done from the PCM highway to the transmit port. Transmit and receive gains may be specified in terms of an actual gain, or in terms of a transmission level point (TLP), that is, the actual ac transmission level in dBm. Finally, the hybrid balance network cancels the unwanted amount of the receive signal that appears at the transmit port. Codec Types At this point in the design, the codec needs to be selected. The interface network between the SLIC and codec can then be designed. Below is a brief codec feature summary. First-Generation Codecs. These perform the basic filtering, A/D (transmit), D/A (receive), and µ-law/A-law companding. They all have an op amp in front of the A/D converter for transmit gain setting and hybrid balance (cancellation at the summing node). Depending on the type, some have differential analog input stages, differential analog output stages, +5 V only or ±5 V operation, and µ-law/A-law selectability. These are available in single and quad designs. This type of codec requires continuous time analog filtering via external resistor/capacitor networks to set the ac design parameters. An example of this type of codec is the Agere T7504 quad 5 V only codec. Data Sheet July 2001 Third-Generation Codecs. This class of devices includes all ac parameters set digitally under microprocessor control. Depending on the device, it may or may not have data control latches. Additional functionality sometimes offered includes tone plant generation and reception, PPM generation, test algorithms, and echo cancellation. Again, this type of codec may be +5 V only or ±5 V operation, single quad or 16-channel, and µ-law/A-law or 16-bit linear coding selectable. Examples of this type of codec are the Agere T8536/7 (5 V only, quad, standard features), T8533/4 (5 V only, quad with echo cancellation), and the T8531/36 (5 V only, 16-channel with self-test). ac Interface Network The ac interface network between the L9312 and the codec will vary depending on the codec selected. With a first-generation codec, the interface between the L9312 and codec actually sets the ac parameters. With a third-generation codec, all ac parameters are set digitally, internal to the codec; thus, the interface between the L9312 and this type of codec is designed to avoid overload at the codec input in the transmit direction, and to optimize signal to noise ratio (S/N) in the receive direction. Because the design requirements are very different with a first- or third-generation codec, the L9312 is offered with two different receive gains. Each receive gain was chosen to optimize, in terms of external components required, the ac interface between the L9312 and codec. This type of codec tends to be the most economical in terms of piece part price, but tends to require more external components than a third-generation codec. Further ac parameters are fixed by the external R/C network so software control of ac parameters is difficult. 32 Agere Systems Inc. Data Sheet July 2001 L9312 Line Interface and Line Access Circuit Forward Battery SLIC and Ringing Relay for TR-57 Applications ac Applications (continued) ac Interface Network (continued) With a first-generation codec, the termination impedance is set by providing gain shaping through a feedback network from the SLIC VITR output to the SLIC RCVN/RCVP inputs. The L9312 provides a transconductance from T/R to VITR in the transmit direction and a single ended to differential gain in the receive direction, from either RCVN or RCVP to T/R. Assuming a short from VITR to RCVN or RCVP, the maximum impedance that is seen looking into the SLIC is the product of the SLIC transconductance times the SLIC receive gain, plus the protection resistors. The various specified termination impedance can range over the voiceband as low as 300 Ω up to over 1000 Ω. Thus, if the SLIC gains are too low, it will be impossible to synthesize the higher termination impedances. Further, the termination that is achieved will be far less than what is calculated by assuming a short for SLIC output to SLIC input. In the receive direction, in order to control echo, the gain is typically a loss, which requires a loss network at the SLIC RCVN/RCVP inputs, which will reduce the amount of gain that is available for termination impedance. For this reason, a high-gain SLIC is required with a first-generation codec. Thus, it appears the solution is to have a SLIC with a low gain, especially in the receive direction. This will allow the codec to operate near its maximum output signal (to optimize S/N), without an external resistor divider (to minimize cost). Note also that some third-generation codecs require the designer to provide an inherent resistive termination via external networks. The codec will then provide gain shaping, as a function of frequency, to meet the return loss requirements. Further stability issues may add external components or excessive ground plane requirements to the design. To meet the unique requirements of both types of codecs, the L9312 offers two receive gain choices. These receive gains are mask programmable at the factory and are offered as two different code variations. For interface with a first-generation codec, the L9312 is offered with a receive gain of 8. For interface with a third-generation codec, the L9312 is offered with a receive gain of 2. In either case, the transconductance in the transmit direction, or the transmit gain, is 300 Ω. This selection of receive gain gives the designer the flexibility to maximize performance and minimize external components, regardless of the type of codec chosen. With a third-generation codec, the line card designer has different concerns. To design the ac interface, the designer must first decide upon all termination impedance, hybrid balances, and TLP requirements that the line card must meet. In the transmit direction, the only concern is that the SLIC does not provide a signal that is too large and overloads the codec input. Thus, for the highest TLP that is being designed to, given the SLIC gain, the designer, as a function of voiceband frequency, must ensure the codec is not overloaded. With a given TLP and a given SLIC gain, if the signal will cause a codec overload, the designer must insert some sort of loss, typically a resistor divider, between the SLIC output and codec input. The following examples illustrate the design techniques/equations followed to design the ac interface with a first- or third-generation codec for both a resistive and complex design. To aid the line circuit design, Agere has available Windows*-based spreadsheets to do the individual component calculations. Further, Agere has available PSPICE † models for circuit simulation and verification. Consult your Agere Account Representative to obtain these design tools. In the receive direction, the issue is to optimize the S/N. Again, the designer must consider all the considered TLPs. The idea, for all desired TLPs, is to run the codec at or as close as possible to its maximum output signal, to optimize the S/N. Remember, noise floor is constant, so the larger the signal from the codec, the better the S/N. The problem is if the codec is feeding a high-gain SLIC, either an external resistor divider is needed to knock the gain down to meet the TLP requirements, or the codec is not operated near maximum signal levels, thus compromising the S/N. Termination impedance may be specified as purely resistive or complex, that is, some combination of resistors and capacitors that causes the impedance to vary with frequency. The design for a pure resistive termination, such as 600 Ω, does not vary with frequency, so it is somewhat more straightforward than a complex termination design. For this reason, the case of a resistive design and complex design will be shown separately.

For this example, the ac interface was designed for a 600 Ω resistive termination and hybrid balance with transmit gain and receive gain set to 0 dBm. Resistor RGN is optional. It compensates for any mismatch of input bias voltage at the RCVN/RCVP inputs. If it is not used, there may be a slight offset at tip and ring due to mismatch of input bias voltage at the RCVN/RCVP inputs. It is very common to simply tie RCVN directly to ground in this particular mode of operation. If used, to calculate RGN, the impedance from RCVN to ac ground should equal the impedance from RCVP to ac ground.
