Tripolar overvoltage protection for telecom line
Features
■ Bidirectional crowbar protection between tip
and gnd, ring and gnd and between tip and ring
■ Peak pulse current:
IPP = 30 A for 10/1000 µs surge
■ Holding current: IH = 150 mA
Complies with Telcordia standards
■ Telcordia GR-1089-Core, (second level) with
line series resistors
– 10/1000 µs, 1000 V
– 2/10 µs, 2500 V (first level)
– 2/10 µs, 5000 V
Description
Dedicated to telecommunication equipment
protection, these devices provide a triple
bidirectional protection function.
They ensure the same protection capability with
the same breakdown voltage both in longitudinal
mode and transversal mode.
A particular attention has been given to the
internal wire bonding. The “4-point” configuration
ensures a reliable protection, eliminating
overvoltages introduced by the parasitic
inductances of the wiring (Ldi/dt), especially for
very fast transient overvoltages.
Dynamic characteristics have been defined for
several types of surges, in order to meet the SLIC
maximum ratings.
