Product Description

The CM1210 family of diode arrays has been designed to provide ESD protection for electronic components or sub-systems requiring minimal capacitive loading. These devices are ideal for protecting systems with high data and clock rates or for circuits requiring low capacitive loading. Each ESD channel consists of a pair of diodes which will steer the ESD current pulse to either the positive (VP) or negative (VN) supply rail. The CM1210 will protect against ESD pulses up to +6KV per the IEC 61000-4-2 standard.
