Figure 7: Bidirectional protection for 0V biased signals
The ESDA6V1BC6 array is the ideal product for use as board level protection of ESD sensitive semicon-
ductor components.
The tiny SOT23-6L package allows design flexibility in the design of “crowded” boards where the space
saving is at a premium. This enables to shorten the routing and can contribute to improve ESD perform-
ance.
2. Circuit Board Layout
Circuit board layout is a critical design step in the suppression of ESD induced transients. The following
guidelines are recommended :
The ESDA6V1BC6 should be placed as near as possible to the input terminals or connectors.
Minimise the path length between the ESD suppressor and the protected device
Minimise all conductive loops, including power and ground loops
The ESD transient return path to ground should be kept as short as possible.
Use ground planes whenever possible.
