Maxim’s high-speed USB port protector is designed to protect a USB port on commercial and industrial equipment against damage due to faulty or incorrectly wired power supplies. The USB port is protected against connection to typical 24 V_DC or 24 V_AC systems with a maximum data line protection of ±40.7 V and power/ground line protection up to ±50 V.

The V_BUS, ground, and connector shield connections can be configured for any level of ESD, burst, and surge protection by choosing external components. USB data D+ and D- are protected by external diode clamps to V_BUS and GND, allowing for the lowest possible insertion loss while providing high ESD and burst protection.

The devices is housed in a 24-pin, 4 mm x 4 mm TQFN package with exposed pad and is specified for operation over the -40°C to +105°C temperature range.
