TVS diodes are specifically designed to
protect sensitive components which are connected to
high-speed data and transmission lines from overvolt-
age caused by ESD (electrostatic discharge), CDE
(cable discharge events), and EFT (electrical fast
transients).
The unique design incorporates surge rated, low
capacitance steering diodes and a TVS diode in a
single package. During transient conditions, the
steering diodes direct the transient current to ground.
The internal TVS diode clamps the transient voltage to
a safe level. The low capacitance array configuration
allows the user to protect up to four high-speed data
lines.
The RClamp
®
0504PA is in a 6-pin SLP1616P6 package.
It measures 1.6 x 1.6 x 0.60mm. The leads are
spaced at a pitch of 0.5mm and are finished with lead-
free NiPdAu. They may be used to meet the ESD
immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4
(15kV air, 8kV contact discharge). The combination of
small size, low capacitance, and high ESD surge capa-
bility makes them ideal for use in portable applications
such as cellular phones, next generation color LCD
displays, USB, and multi media card interfaces.
