SLIC protection

ST’s SLIC protection device family helps set-top boxes, gateways, EPON, GPON and voice band protection equipment meet the most stressful telecom standards for lightning, AC power contact and induction.

With the 2 line-card protection (LCP) series, they protect all SLICs on the market and offer:

• Compliance with telecom standards
• Support for single- and dual-voltage SLIC types
• The most efficient protection thanks to programmable gates

These crowbar-mode protection devices are programmable: the threshold voltage follows the power supply voltage and protection efficiency is ensured whatever the power supply voltage setting and variations.
