Product Description

The PAC DN017™ is a diode array designed to provide 18 channels of ESD protection for electronic components or sub-systems. Each channel consists of a pair of diodes which steers the ESD current pulse either to the positive (VP) or negative (VN) supply. In addition, there is an integral Zener diode between VP and VN to supress any voltage disturbance due to these ESD pulses. The PAC DN017 will protect against ESD pulses up to 15 KV Human Body Model, and 15KV contact discharge per International Standard IEC 61000-4-2.
