5V RINGING SLIC
1.0 Line Interfacing
As well as being in an electrically demanding
environment, the needs of different applications and
regulatory standards means that the SLIC must allow
flexibility, together with facilities to ensure robust
performance. The Ag1160 SLIC provides a complete
and flexible interface to the telephone line.
1.1 Battery Feed
The Ag1160 has an integral DC-DC converter, which
generates the battery voltages in the device. This
means that only a supply of +5V, and GND is needed,
unlike conventional SLICs, which will need a battery
voltage of anything between -20V and -60V (-75V for
ringing). This confers a significant cost, space and
time to market benefit on the equipment designer.
The battery feed to the telephone line is generated
from the positive supply rail. This provides a -36V
battery feed to the line driver (-24V for Ag1160A),
except during ringing, when this is increased to -72V.
For applications, which require –48V feed voltage
during the on hook state (eg. some fax machines), a
bleed resistor can be provided. However this will
increase the idle current.
The Ag1160A is designed for use in low power short
loop applications, and provides a battery feed of –24V
to the line.
The loop current is pre-set to a constant 24mA. If the
loop length is such that the constant current feed
cannot be maintained (i.e. >3km, or 0.5km for
Ag1160A), then the Ag1160 will revert to a constant
voltage source, allowing the loop to be serviced at a
reduced loop current.
output. The SHK signal must be “debounced” to
remove any spurious pulses by the controlling
processor. On detection of SHK the ringing signal
must be removed from the F/R pin and RM taken to a
logic 0 within 500ms to avoid excessive power
dissipation in the line driver circuit. The ring-trip
function will operate correctly up to a maximum loop
resistance of around 800R (including telephone), which
corresponds to around 3km loop length.
It is
recommended that a 10K pull-down resistor is fitted to
RM.
1.3 Loop Off and Power Down
The loop current can be removed from the line by
switching the LO input to a logic 1. This can be used
as a power denial to the line or to present a very high
impedance to the line. Typically used when carrying
out maintenance on the line, or to suspend service
during a line fault, etc.
The DC-DC converter can be switched off by applying
a logic 1 to the PD input. This reduces the current
consumption to a nominal 15mA. The SLIC takes
50ms to power up from this powered down state.
When using the power down state it is recommended
that the SLIC is polled (powered up periodically) to
check for SHK (the subscriber has gone off hook).
2.0 The 2-4 Wire (hybrid) Conversion.
The Ag1160 SLIC transmits and receives balanced
2-wire analog signals at the Tip and Ring connections.
These are converted to a ground referenced output at
VOUT and from a ground referenced input at VIN.
VOUT and VIN are normally connected to a Codec for
conversion to and from a digital Pulse Code Modulated
(PCM) stream.
1.2 Ringing
The ringing signal is generated by switching the SLIC
into ringing mode by setting the RM pin high and then
toggling the F/R pin at the required frequency and
cadence. The toggling of the F/R pin produces a
balanced signal at Tip and Ring.
These signal
waveforms are shown in Figure 3.
During ringing the integral DC-DC converter
automatically switches to produce a battery voltage of
-72V. This will produce greater than 40V rms into a
REN of 3. The slope of the edges on the ringing
waveform is determined by the value of the slew rate
capacitor connected between the CAP pin and Ground.
A 220nF capacitor is recommended with 20Hz ringing.
When an “off-hook” condition occurs during ringing, the
ring-trip circuit on the Ag1160 senses the loop current
flowing and signals the off-hook condition on the SHK

2.1 Transmit and Receive Gain.
The gain in both the transmit direction (Tip/Ring to
VOUT) and the receive direction (VIN to Tip/Ring) is set to
0dB. Normally any gain adjustments required by the
user can be made by programming the Codec.
2.2 The 2 Wire Impedance.
The input impedance (at Tip/Ring), Zin, of the SLIC is
set to 600R. For countries where the line impedance is
600R e.g. North America, no external adjustment is
required. For countries where an alternative line
impedance is used the Codec filter characteristics can
be programmed to give the required matching.
The Codec manufacturer can provide information on
how Codec programming is done. Programmable

5V RINGING SLIC
Codecs require information about the transfer
characteristics of the SLIC with which they are working.
Some codecs require a .CIR netlist. A .CIR netlist can
be obtained by contacting either Silver Telecom or your
local representative, to allow certain Codec
programming coefficients to be generated.
If a simple (non-programmable) Codec is being used
contact Silver Telecom for an Ag1160 version with an
alternative impedance.
2.3 Network Balance Impedance.
The network balance impedance, Zb, of the SLIC is set
to 600R for the standard Ag1160. For countries where
the network balance impedance is 600R e.g. North
America, no external adjustment is required. For
countries where an alternative network balance
impedance is used the Codec filter characteristics can
be programmed to give the required matching. The
.CIR netlist may be needed to allow the Codec
programming coefficients to be generated.
If a simple (non-programmable) Codec is being used
contact Silver Telecom for an Ag1160 version with an
alternative impedance.
2.4 Tip & Ring Polarity Reversal.
The Ag1160 can reverse the battery voltage polarity at
Tip and Ring via the F/R pin.
If F/R is held at logic 1 (forward) the d.c. voltage at Tip
is positive with respect to Ring. If F/R is taken to logic
0 the voltage polarity is reversed. The F/R pin should
not be left floating, and if not used should be tied high
as shown in Figure 4.
2.5 On Hook Transmission.
The Ag1160 is capable of on-hook transmission. This
means analog signals can be transmitted from VIN
through Tip and Ring and onto the line even when no
loop current is flowing. This can be used when

could exceed the 1.6W maximum rating. In this case a
thermal cut-off will ensure the device gradually powers
down safely by reducing the loop current. Once the
problem has been corrected the loop current will return
to its normal level.
sending Caller Line Identification (CLI) information or
for other “no ring” calls.
The Ag1160 will provide on hook transmission with a
high impedance on Tip/Ring or specific loads are
demanded by Network Operators.
This feature means that the SLIC can be used even
when a thermal overload has occurred.
3.0 Switch Hook Detect Level
4.2 Lightning and Power Cross Protection.
When the subscriber goes “off-hook” loop current will
begin to flow. If this current is above the detection
threshold (10mA) the switch hook output, SHK, will
switch to a logic 1. It is recommended that software or
hardware de-bouncing of the switch hook signal is
used. This is to avoid short pulses which can cause a
false switch hook output, triggering the incorrect
system response.
It is usual for the Ag1160 to be used in “on-premise”
applications, such as SOHO, CTI and VoIP. In this
case power cross and lightning protection is not
required, however in most ‘off-premise’ applications, a
subscriber circuit will be required to withstand over
voltage conditions which could be caused by lightning
or overhead power cables striking the telephone
cables.
It is therefore normal in “off-premise”
applications to provide primary and secondary
protection circuits to prevent damage to the SLIC.
During loop disconnect dialling, SHK will pulse
between logic 1 and logic 0 to indicate the digits being
dialled. Again it is recommended that software debouncing is used to avoid false detection of digits.
The Ag1160 has been designed to be able to use low
cost protection components and a typical circuit is
shown in Figure 5. This circuit is suitable for most “onpremise” applications.
4.0 Protection of the Ag1160 SLIC
4.1 Thermal Protection
With some additional components, the Ag1160 will
meet UL1459 and 1950 requirements: a series element
should be added - a combination of a fuse (e.g.
350mA, Bussman C515 or Littelfuse 220003) and a
Should the SLIC be operated incorrectly, for example
by accidentally shorting Tip and Ring to each other or
to ground, there is a danger the power dissipation

surge resistor (25R typically). Alternatively a Teccor
F1250T or F0500T fuse may be used without a surge
resistor.
6.0 A Typical Application.
The Ag1160 has been designed to interface to any
Codec and is shown in a typical application in Figure 5.
For ITU-T K20 power cross protection, a PTC
thermistor (eg. type JH330L) of 30R is suitable. The
lightning protection is provided by steering diodes
connected to 0V and upgrading D1 to a Tranzorb
device (Motorola or STM 1.5KE82A). For lightning and
power cross protection, D1 should be upgraded further
(General Semiconductor or Semitron 5KP75). Just one
Tranzorb is needed per linecard.
The Codec which has been chosen to illustrate the use
of the Ag1160 is the Motorola MC14LC5480.
The status outputs from the SLIC are passed to the
micro-controller. These signals can then be processed
as necessary by the system software.
The audio signals which are on the 4 wire side of the
connection are coupled by 100nF capacitors to avoid
d.c. level problems between the two devices.
5.0 Approvals.
It can be seen from the Electrical Characteristics given
on subsequent pages that the SLIC has been designed
to meet the equipment standards of as many major
public telephone authorities as possible.
The Ag1160 provides for a 2 wire impedance and a
network balance impedance of 600Ω. For other
impedances a DSP codec can be used which can be
programmed using applications information available
from the codec manufacturer. The necessary transfer
function parameters for the Ag1160 are available from
Silver Telecom.
It is the responsibility of the equipment design authority
to ensure that their system meets the requirements of
the relevant regulatory bodies. Every effort is made to
ensure that Silver Telecom products are compliant with
the latest standards.

If a simple Codec, without programmable filtering

provide the Ag1160 with different impedances.
Contact Silver Telecom for other applications circuits.
7.0 Layout Considerations.
Figure 6 gives an example of the tracking needed for
the Ag1160. Tracks to the +5VPWR and GNDPWR should
be made as thick as possible. Also to maximise the
performance of the device signal tracks should be kept
as short as possible. Finally as is common in all
designs, decoupling capacitors should be placed
adjacent to the supply and ground pins.
It is important that a low ESR, high quality capacitor is
used for C2. The Rubycon ZL is recommended.
