Zarlink Am79Qxxx to Le58QLxxx Transition Application Note
The guide explains how to transition line‑card designs from the 5 V QSLAC device to the lower‑voltage QLSLAC device while keeping software compatibility and minimizing hardware changes. It covers power‑supply requirements, subscriber line interface circuit options, and microprocessor interface timing.
Key topics include device similarities and differences, power‑supply considerations, solid‑state and transformer SLIC designs, filter‑coefficient computation, and interface specifications such as MPI timing and frame‑synchronization requirements.

Which voltage regulator is recommended for converting a 5 V supply to 3.3 V?
The document recommends National Semiconductor’s LM1117‑3.3 regulator, which can source up to 800 mA.
What resistor value adjustment is needed for TSCA/TSCB pull‑up when using a 3.3 V supply?
The pull‑up resistors should be reduced from 360 Ω to 240 Ω to maintain similar rise‑time.
