    Abstract: The present invention discloses systems and methods for protecting electronic devices (switching and non-switching) such as micro electro-mechanical system (MEMS) devices and solid state relays due to lightning exposure or electrical power surges. An over voltage protector and an over current protector are used to limit the exposure of high voltages and currents to the MEMS devices and solid-state relays. A relay or equivalent device is energized when a high current is sensed in the loop, which relay is used to protect the MEMS devices and solid state relays from damage. The relay can be controlled via software/hardware and works in conjunction with other components/devices in the overall systems. In this manner, any number of MEMS devices or solid state relays can be protected.

    Abstract: A wide band high voltage and high power amplifier is particularly useful for telephony applications. The amplifier employs a flyback converter with the capacitor storage element coupled across the line. The subscriber line is characterized in having a definite load impedance which impedance is in parallel with the storage capacitor of the flyback converter. The subscriber lines are monitored by a differential amplifier which provides a single-ended output indicative of the levels across the lines. This output is summed with the input signal to develop an error signal. The input signal to the line circuit is the particular signal of concern such as ringing, the voice signal and so on. The error signal is supplied as one input to a comparator having another input coupled to a triangular reference waveform. The output of the comparator provides a pulse width modulated waveform where the width of the pulses are indicative of the error signal. These pulses are applied to a transistor coupled to the primary winding of the transformer associated with the flyback converter to enable flyback operation during the pulse and hence to transfer energy to the storage capacitor as a function of the error signal.

Additionally, control means controls the d.c. line impedance and voltage for adjusting the effective line feed current to the subscriber loop, and provides interfaces for a plurality of line circuits to both a switching network and external processor. Supervision means provides supervision control signals to the control means and thereby permits the telephone line circuit system to provide desired telephone system functions.

    Abstract: Circuit apparatus for supplying a regulated loop current to a two conductor loop telephone line includes first and second line feed resistances, each having one terminal connected to a respective terminal of the telephone line. A differential amplifier has one input connected to the first resistance and a second input connected to the second resistance in common with the resistance connections to the telephone line terminals. One of the resistances has its other terminal connected to the output of an active circuit means, which circuit operates in a feedback path to supply the desired loop current to the line resistance and therefore the telephone line. The input control signal for the active feedback circuit is derived from summing the output signal from the differential amplifier with a reference signal whose magnitude varies according to the length of the telephone line. The feedback path is supplied by the connection between the output of the active feedback circuit and the line resistance as further coupled to an input of the differential amplifier.
