LOW CAPACITANCE ESD PROTECTION ARRAY FOR HIGH SPEED DATA INTERFACES

DESCRIPTION

The UTC UESD4C5V6C08 is high performance design which

includes surge rated diode arrays to protect high speed data

interfaces.

The UESD4C5V6C08 family has been specifically designed to

protect sensitive components, which are connected to data and

transmission lines, from over-voltage caused by Electrostatic

Discharging (ESD), Electrical Fast Transients (EFT) and

Lightning.

UESD4C5V6C08 is a unique design which includes surge

rated, low capacitance steering diodes and a unique design of

clamping cell which is an equivalent TVS diode in a single

package. During transient conditions, the steering diodes direct

the transient to either the power supply line or to the ground line.

The internal unique design of clamping cell prevents over-voltage

on the power line, protecting any downstream components.
