Description
The L8574 is a resistive subscriber line interface circuit (SLIC) that is optimized for long loop applications, such as Bellcore TR-NWT-000057 requirements for digital loop carrier (DLC) applications. It interfaces the low-voltage circuits on an analog line card to the Tip/Ring subscriber loop. The L8574 does not supply dc current to the subscriber loop; external resistors are used for this purpose.
