3.1
VBAT voltage generation
When operated with a positive supply voltage VPOS and a correctly set clock signal (typically 125 kHz), the SLIC generates a VBAT voltage for the active and ring operations. The VBAT voltage level, with a 10% spread, is defined by the voltage divider RF1 / RF2 and can be set by choosing an RF1 value from a recommended set of values (see Table 2): Table 2. VBAT voltage values (VPOS = 4.5V)
RF1 (K) 270 285 300 315 330 VBAT (Active mode) -46.1V -48.4V -51.9V -54.3V -56.3V VBAT (Ring mode) -64.4V -67,8V -71.7V -75.2V -78.2V
6/26
AN2132
Application information These values are referred to the device in active mode, on-hook condition (IL = 0mA) and in ring mode without load. The VBAT value must be chosen taking into account the absolute maximum ratings of the device (VBTOT = 90 V). VBTOT = (VBAT + VPOS) = 90 V must not be exceeded. When ring mode is selected through the control interface, the VBAT voltage is increased by an internal circuit from it's active level to a predetermined value for ring mode. These two voltage levels (VBAT active and VBAT ring) are hence correlated. When one is set, (ring or active), the other is also set at the same time.
3.2
Operation in off-hook condition
A major feature of this device is that when changing from on-hook to off-hook conditions (IL >0 mA), the VBAT voltage is automatically adjusted depending on the loop resistance and on the programmed current limitation value (ILIM). It should be noted that the device is optimized to operate on short loop applications (RLOOP 500 ) in order to obtain the correct ring-trip detection. In these conditions, with line current reaching the programmed constant current feed value (ILIM), the STLC3075 works like a current generator with a fixed DC current. A fixed voltage drop, 4 V on TIP/GND and approximately 6 V on RING/VBAT, assures the DC functionality and the proper swing for the AC signal. When the line is set off-hook, the STLC3075 automatically adjusts the generated battery voltage (VBAT) to feed the line with a fixed DC current (programmable via RLIM), and so optimizes power dissipation. Considering maximum and minimum values for RLOOP ranging from 500 to100 and with , fixed parameters ILIM = 25 mA and 2Rp = 100 the battery voltage (VBAT) will be equal to: , 1. 2. VBAT = 25 mA x (500+100) + 10 V = - 25 V VBAT = 25 mA x (100+100) + 10 V = - 15 V
A correctly set current threshold (typically 9 mA), programmable by external resistor RTH, allows the correct on/off hook transition function. During the off-hook dynamic transition, the CAC capacitor is charged. The line current regulator system senses the current flowing into RD and reduces the ILOOP current to the programmed ILIM value, set by RLIM. The settling time of the ILIM current is about 150 ms, and it is a function of the CAC splitter capacitor (min. value allowed is 22 F).
3.3
VPOS characteristics
The input voltage VPOS can change slowly within the data sheet range (4.5 V - 12 V) without any effect on the VBAT voltage. The STLC3075 can continue to operate correctly even if the VPOS voltage occasionally goes below 4.5 V (instantaneous value, not steady-state). The only limitation is the minimum voltage required on the external PMOS to keep it in a linear area. Fast transients, ripples and spikes on the supply voltage VPOS will appear on TIP/RING with a reduced amplitude, depending upon the voltage supply rejection of the device.

Bench measurements on SVRR give -35 dB @ f = 50 Hz and -47 dB @ f = 4 kHz, using the test circuit configuration with the device in active mode, loaded with an RLOOP = 500 , and ILIM = 25 mA.
3.4
Start-up and DC-DC converter
In order to prevent problems during start-up, an internal circuit turns-on the gate of the MOSFET only when VPOS reaches 4 V and turns it off for VPOS lower than 3 V. For VPOS voltage higher than 4 V the DC/DC converter power-on is controlled by a soft start circuit embedded on the devices. Figure 4. DC-DC converter circuit

The DC/DC converter works in flyback condition using a two step process.
During the ON-time of the MOSFET, energy is taken from the input and stored in the primary winding of the flyback transformer. On the secondary side, the diode is reverse biased, thus the load is being supplied by the energy stored in the output bulk capacitor. As soon as the power-mos turns off, the primary circuit is open and the energy stored in the primary is transferred to the secondary by magnetic coupling. The diode is forward biased, and the stored energy is delivered to the output capacitor and then on the load.
The dots on the transformer must be in accordance with the voltage, so that during the ONtime of the MOSFET they indicate the positive side with respect to the other one of the transformer. During MOSFET OFF-time they indicate the negative. The MOSFET must be chosen with the correct Vds voltage rating, considering also the voltage reflected back (Vr) to the primary through the turns ratio n. The reflected voltage (Vr) must be added to the input voltage VPOS giving out a much higher voltage on the drain of the Mosfet (VBAT / n ) + VPOS.

AN2132
Application information A MOSFET with a VDS greater than two times the VPOS voltage is recommended. The STN4NF03L, with a VDS of 30 V satisfies this parameter. In the same way, the diode SMBYT01-400 with a VRRM of 400 V is able to operate properly considering a reverse voltage value calculated by VPOS x turns ratio + VBAT. In order to guarantee correct discharge timing to the transformer, avoiding possible saturation phenomenon, the max duty-cycle is limited to 60%, with a minimum duty-cycle of about 5%.

Input current limitation
In WLL applications, the power supply usually does not have high-power current capability. Therefore when a ring trip occurs, the status of the SLIC changes from ring mode to offhook condition. As the loop current control does not react immediately, the line current reaches the output stages current limitation value of about 80 mA. As a consequence, a high peak current is sunk from VPOS which could be higher than its maximum current capability. In this case, if no limiting current circuit is used, (RSENSE = 0), the VPOS voltage would drop. To prevent this, the STLC3075 incorporates a circuit to limit peak current on the VPOS input. The peak current value is defined by the formula:
375 m V I P E A K = ------------------------RSENSE
This input current limitation circuit operates during all transients caused by changes in the line current conditions.

RSENSE setting
The RSENSE resistor sets the input peak current value, which must be lower than the power supply current capability limit. In a typical application, the input peak current is fixed at 1.7 ApK (375 mV / 220 m) in order to guarantee optimum performance in the total range of the current loop (20 to 40 mA) and the VPOS supply (4.5 to 12 V), driving up to 5REN of load.
3.9
Trapezoidal ringing signal
In the application domain targeted for this product (Integrated Access Device, Set Top Box, Small Office Home Office etc....) non sinusoidal ring waveforms are accepted. Therefore the STLC3075 generates ringing signals with a trapezoidal waveform. This type of waveform is very similar to a sine wave whose distortion can be kept lower than 5% and crest factors have a value of 1.2, just by correct selection of the external CREV capacitor. Because the value of CREV is a function of the ringing frequency, this value has to be adapted to the ringing frequency used. A CREV in the range 18 to 22 nF gives a trapezoidal ringing signal and correct shaping with 20 to 25 Hz ringing frequency. To increase the ringing frequency to 68 Hz, the value of CREV should be chosen in the range of 6.8 to 8.2 nF.

Efficiency and power dissipation in flyback configuration
At the fixed CLK frequency (125 kHz), the best DC/DC converter efficiency can be obtained with:
a good compromise between RDS-ON and the parasitic input/output capacitances value of the NchMOS. For this reason the power Mos STN4NF03L has been chosen. a high efficiency, fast recovery diode, like the ST SMBYT01-400, showing a Trr max of 35 ns @ VF = 1 A. a transformer suited to DC/DC applications.
The following tables (Table 15 and Table 16) summarize the measurements of the DC/DC converter efficiency, made on an ST board. The efficiency parameter is calculated with the following formula:

Note:
Note that for a given value of supply voltage VPOS, the current consumption from VPOS supply will be influenced by the electrical characteristics of the selected transformer.

Micro interface
The input levels are interpreted as TTL levels, therefore both 3.3 or 5 V CMOS input signals can be accepted by the STLC3075. The output DET signal is an open drain (needing an external pull-up resistor to VCC), therefore both 3.3 and 5 V logic levels can be generated, depending on the value of VCC.
3.13
Protection
Different circuit configurations can be used to protect the device from overvoltages. The best solution to use depends on the specified overvoltage and on whether or not the environment where the STLC3075 has to work is defined by the K20 requirements. If K20 is requested, a solution that includes a transient voltage suppressor LCP1521, PTC resistors, and two transils has to be used (see Figure 7). Two diodes inside the LCP1521 will clamp to ground any positive lightning, power cross and voltage overstress. For negative overvoltages, the device will fire because of the gate triggered on the voltage VBAT. A series of two transils (2 x SM6T39A), to best fit the voltage clamp (typically 78 V), will avoid exceeding the total voltage (Vbtot) applied to the device supply pins.

Vbtot = VPOS + VBAT = 90V according to the absolute maximum rating of the STLC3075.

Ring trip
In this SLIC, the ring trip detection is performed by sensing the average current (an image of the line current) injected in the RD resistor, rectified by a dedicated circuit. It is then filtered by a CAC capacitor and compared to the internally programmed ring trip threshold (IRTH) by the RD resistor itself. Do not confuse this with the RTH resistor which sets the off-hook threshold for active and H.Z. modes. If the average of the trapezoidal AC current changes in the transition from higher ring impedance (On-hook condition) to low impedance (Off-hook condition), the voltage on the RD resistor increases. As soon as this voltage goes over the programmed threshold (IRTH), the ring trip will be detected. In ring mode there is no DC current into the RD resistor, but only the rectified average current. It is clear that the previously described ring trip method is optimized to operate in short loop (<500 ) applications and not in the presence of a very long line. The ring-trip detection threshold is programmed by the formula: IRTH = 100/RD. With 20 Hz of ring frequency, CAC=22 F, and RD=4 k, the pin DET goes low about 100 ms after the off-hook transition. When the SLIC is in ring mode, the maximum average current depends of the REN load. During normal functioning, this current must be lower than the IRTH threshold. Typical applications can guarantee up to 3REN of load. By increasing the REN number up to 5REN, the AC load will increase. The average current l can then become higher than IRTH and a ring trip will be detected. It is possible to readjust this situation by reducing the value of RD. Alternatively, increasing the IRTH threshold will also increase the ring trip time. In summary, the ring trip is a function of:
the load (REN number) the value of the ring trip rectified average threshold current "IRTH" the value of the maximum peak current sunk from VPOS "Ipk" - higher the REN number lower the value of RSENSE

Good PCB layout is a basic requirement to avoid noise problems that can have a negative impact on the device operating conditions. In practice, noise can come from grounding, power supply, parasitic coupling between PCB tracks, and from high impedance points. The PCB layout should prevent any coupling between the DC/DC converter components and analog pins that are referred to AGND (for example: RD, IREF, RTH, RLIM, VF). As a first recommendation, the components CV, T1, D1,N-MOS, CVPOS, and RSENSE should be kept as close as possible to each other and isolated from the other components. Noise could be produced by ripple on the CVBAT capacitor and in particular across its equivalent series resistor value (ESR). The lower this value, the lower the ripple that can be present on VBAT. Particular care has to be taken on the tracks used for connection between VPOS and the DC/DC converter, which must be low impedance tracks due to the high current flowing in them. Noise can also be prevented by connecting RREF (26K1) as close as possible to the IREF pin.

Ground configuration
Another important point is the ground connection: a star configuration is suggested (see Figure 10). Figure 10. Suggested ground lay-out
AGND GND BGND
System GND PGND
It is important to create a specific P-GND area on the layout, with connections to:
the GND of the CV electrolytic capacitor, the GND of the CVPOS electrolytic capacitor, the GND of the transformer T1.
This P-GND area has to be connected to the center of the star via a dedicated track. In this way, any disruptions from the peak current produced by the switching transistor will be cooled by the center of the GND star (system GND), without any disturbance on the other GND (AGND/BGND). All the other components have to be connected on the GND area.
3.17
Capacitor
Ceramic capacitors CVB and C14 may be used to filter the high frequency ripple and noise that electrolytic capacitors CV and CVPOS respectively are unable to reject. It is also advisable to connect a 100 nF capacitor from VPOS and GND in order to cancel any high frequency noise on the VPOS pin. This capacitor may not be required, depending on the high frequency sensitivity of the apparatus that the STLC3075 device is included in. CRD avoids noise coupling on the RD pin, which is a high impedance input.
3.18
On-hook transmission
Voice transmission performances are guaranteed in the complete range of loop currents down to 0mA, when setting the SLIC in active mode, and receiving data on the RX pin during ringing pause. The maximum output voltage is correlated to the 2 wire overload voltage parameter (see the datasheet).

Phone detection
The pin DET can also be used to detect the load status of the line. When the loop is in on-hook condition with a typical telephone connected, setting the SLIC in active reverse polarity and then changing its status to H.I. feeding, pin DET will go to low level for a time of about 1.5 ms. If the line is open, this time is reduced to about 2 s.
3.20
ESD immunity
The ESD protection in this device withstands a discharge of 2kV with the Human Body Model. If the STLC3075 must operate in sensitive apparatus where equipment tests against ESD immunity are required (4kV, 8kV), some precautions have be taken. During these tests, where the device is usually powered, ESD transients can put the internal ESD protection diodes (connected on VPOS and RSENSE pins) into the ON condition. When the transient disappears and the VPOS supplied is higher than 9 V, the internal ESD diodes are not able to recover back to the OFF condition. Using a VPOS supply of less than 9 V, the recovery of the ESD diodes is guaranteed and the equipment will be able to pass the ESD immunity tests. When it is not possible to use a reduced VPOS voltage, a solution can be found by putting a 100 resistor in series at pin VPOS, without any impact on the threshold of the input limitation circuit.

Longitudinal balance
To avoid degradation on this parameter, it is very important to use Rp resistors with 1% tolerance, and (if used) PTC resistors with 1% matching. Low longitudinal balance rejection, caused by the mismatching of the resistors or PTC, can generate noise problems. For example in a GSM based WLL, noise can be generated from the 25 Hz produced by the 4 ms burst of the antenna transmission.
3.23
TTX filter
A dedicated metering pulse low pass filter (12 kHz to 16 kHz), with 3rd order filtering can be obtained by choosing the following values for the external components: RLV=16K2//16K2 =8.1K, CFL=1.5 nF, R1=1.3 M R2=180K, C1=47 pF, C2=6.8 pF. , If the TTX is not requested, the components RLV, CS, CFL, RTTX, CTTX can be removed. In addition, the pins CKTTX, CTTX1, CTTX2, FTTX have to be connected to GND, and the pin RTTX open.
3.24
Gain settings
In order to adapt the SLIC versus the 3.3 V low supply voltage CODEC, the device provides the possibility to change the TX and RX gains by the gain set control pin. Table 17.

Complex impedance
Most countries (administration) adopt complex impedance for both the "Exchange Impedance" (Zexch) and the "Balance impedance", instead of a 600 purely resistive impedance. As a consequence, the AC input impedance that the SLIC plus protection resistor shows at its line terminals (Zs), has to be calculated in order to correctly match the Zexch, to obtain good performance on the return loss parameter. When Zexch is a complex impedance, the synthesized impedance Zs will be calculated as:
ZAC Z s = ----------- + 2 R p 50
where 50 is a fixed scale factor. (For ZAC definition see datasheet.) For gain set = 1 the scale factor is 25. Considering, for example, the ETSI 2 complex impedance Zexch = 270 + (750//150nF).
21/26
Application information
AN2 132
An AC input impedance has to be synthesized on pins TIP/RING of the SLIC (ZAC), to do so, considering the line terminal, the proper Zs have to be calculated as:
ZAC =(Zs-2Rp)*50 because 2Rp = 100 ZAC = (270-100)*50 + [(750*50)//(150 nF/50)] = ZAC = 8.5K + (37.5K//3 nF)
In this way the SLIC will synthesize Zs impedance matching correctly the Zexch. Also for the 2 to 4 wire conversion, the administration defines an AC terminal balance impedance Zb properly used to obtain the THL performance. Good trans-hybrid loss performance, and therefore proper echo cancellation, can be obtained by correctly matching the two external impedances, ZA and ZB, which can also be complex impedances. ZA = 50 x Zexch ZB = 50 x Zb For gain set = 1, the scale factor is 25. In case of Zb = Zexch, the impedances ZA and ZB can be replaced by two resistors calculating their value as: ZA = ZB = 50 x |Zexch|. For gain set = 1 the scale factor is 25. Where |Zexch| is the modules @ 1 kHz. For ETSI 2 the value |Zexch| = 842 ZA = ZB = 50 x 842 = 42.1 k A typical value of 120 pF (with gain set = 0) for the capacitors CComp and CH guarantee both the loop stability and good THL performance. For gain set = 1 the capacitor value is doubled.

STLC3075 in application with VPOS > 12 V
In a typical application the STLC3075 can operate correctly up to a 12 V VPOS voltage. Using the Fly Back configuration, and by modifying the typical circuit configuration by just adding a zener diode or a voltage regulator, it is possible to provide the right voltage to VPOS (pin 26) in order to get a voltage lower than 12V. Using this circuit configuration it is necessary to use a MOSFET type STN3NF06L with a VDS of 60V. Figure 12. STLC3075 for supply voltage >12 V

STLC3075 for USB suspended current specification
Appendix B
STLC3075 for USB suspended current specification(a)
In Power Down or H.I. mode, the current consumption from VPOS by the STLC3075 is about 12 mA. By turning off the DC/DC converter, pin CLK to GND, this value is reduced to about 4 mA. In a USB bus-powered device, the total current taken from the USB bus has to be no more than 500 A (see USB 2.0 para 7.2.3). To meet this specification, the only possibility is to turn-off the SLIC. One possible way to do that is shown in the schematic below. Adding a few components, and using the STLC3075 in Fly-back configuration, it is possible to meet this specification up to 4.75 V supply voltage, considering 250 mV as a max Vdrop of T2. The STLC3075 can be set in self oscillation mode, hardware connecting pin CLK to pin CVCC. A digital command, logic level High, connected to the SUS input will enable the two transistors T1 and T2 to provide the correct power supply to the pin 26 of the SLIC. Figure 13.
