Dial-up

Circuit Protection of Dial-Up



Design Notes:

Protection Application:
The signals carried on the tip and ring lines by dial-up circuits operate up to 56,000 bits/sec., so the capacitance of the protection device does not need to be controlled. The electrical threats include lightning surges and Power Cross conditions
Solution Description:
As shown at the left, a fuse or PTC can be used for Power Cross protection, and a SIDACtor® thyristor for lightning surge protection. The specific part numbers are determined by matching the operating voltage, and surge’s peak pulse current value to that of the surge suppressor.
