Description
The CLP30-200B1 is designed to protect
telecommunication equipment. It provides both a
transient overvoltage protection and an
overcurrent protection.
The external components (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.
Main applications
Any telecom equipment submitted to transient
overvoltages and lightning strikes such as :
Analog and ISDN line cards
PABX
Benefits
Voltage and current controlled suppression
Surface Mounting with SO-8 package
Very low power rating of external components
on line card: balanced resistors, ring relay, low
voltage SLIC protection
TRISILs™ are not subject to ageing and
provide a fail safe mode in short circuit for a
better level of protection. Trisils are used to
ensure equipment meets various standards
such as UL60950, IEC950 / CSA C22.2,
UL1459 and FCC part 68. Trisils have UL94 V0
approved resin (Trisils are UL497B approved
[file: E136224]).

2 Technical information
2.1 Introduction
The aim of this section is to show the behavior of our new telecom line protection device.
Figure 13. Suscriber line protection topology
Figure 13. 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 the ITU-T-K20 requires a 4 kV 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.
The explanations which follow are basically covering the line card application.
2.2 STMicroelectronics CLP30-200B1 concept
2.2.1 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 14. Line card protection
Figure 14. summarises the performance of the CLP30-200B1 which basically holds the
SLIC inside its correct voltage and current values.
2.2.2 Application circuit
Figure 15. CLP30-200B1 in line card
The Figure 15. 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 RSENSE.

A second stage which is the external voltage 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.
2.2.3 Ringing mode
Figure 16. Switching by voltage during ringing mode
In ringing mode (ring relay in position 2), the only protection device involved is the CLP30-
200B1.
In normal conditions, the CLP30-200B1 operates in region 1 of A1 curve, and is idle.
If an overvoltage occurring between TIP (or RING) and GND reaches the internal
overvoltage reference (+/- 200 V), the CLP30-200B1 acts and the line is short-circuited to
GND. At this time the operating point moves to region 2 for positive surges (region 3 for
negative surges). Once the surge current disappears, the device returns to its initial state
(region 1).
For surges occurring between TIP and RING, the CLP30-200B1 acts in the same way. This
means that the CLP30-200B1 ensures a tripolar protection.
When used alone, the CLP30-200B1 acts at the internal overvoltage reference level
(+/- 200V). Furthermore, it is possible to adjust this threshold level to a lower voltage by
using up to 4 fixed external voltage reference (VZ1 to VZ4) (see Figure 17.).

2.2.4 Speech mode
Figure 18. Switching by current during speech mode
In speech mode (ring relay in position 1), the protection is provided by the combination of
both CLP30-200B1 and the external voltage reference device (for example LCP1511D).
In normal conditions, the working point of this circuit is located in region 4 of A2 curve: the
CLP30-200B1 is idle.
When a surge occurs on the line, the external voltage reference device clamps at GND or -
VBAT respectively for positive and negative surges. This generates a current which is
detected by RSENSE and causes the protection to act: the line is short-circuited to GND. The
operating point moves to region 6 for positive surges or region 5 for negative surges.

CLP30-200B1 Technical information
11/15
Once the surge current falls below the switching-off current ISWOFF
, the CLP30-200B1
returns to its initial state (region 4).
Furthermore, the CLP30-200B1 switches when an overvoltage, either positive or negative,
occurs either:
simultaneously on both TIP and RING lines versus GND
between TIP and RING
on TIP (or RING) versus GND
The choice of the switching-on current is function of the RSENSE resistors.
This current (typically above 150 mA) should not activate the protection device CLP30-
200B1.
Therefore the level of activation is to be chosen just below this limit (typically 200 mA). This
level is adjusted through RSENSE.
Figures 7a and 7b enable the designers to choose the right RSENSE value.
Example
The choice of RSENSE = 3 ensures a negative triggering of -280 mA min and -380 mA
maximum.
In this case, the positive triggering will be 220 mA min and 320 mA max.
Thanks to the CLP30-200B1 topology, the surge current in the line is reduced after it.
Because the remaining surge energy is low, the power ratings of RP
, the relay contacts and
the external voltage reference device may be kept low.
This results in a significant cost reduction for the whole system.
