2.11 External Protection Elements
The CPC7591 requires only over voltage secondary
protection on the loop side of the device. The
integrated protection feature described above negates
the need for additional external protection on the SLIC
side. The secondary protector must limit voltage
transients to levels that do not exceed the breakdown
voltage or input-output isolation barrier of the
CPC7591. A foldback or crowbar type protector is
recommended to minimize stresses on the CPC7591.
Consult Clare’s application note, AN-100, “Designing
Surge and Power Fault Protection Circuits for Solid
State Subscriber Line Interfaces” for equations related
to the specifications of external secondary protectors,
fused resistors and PTCs.
