1. General description

Extremely low clamping, extremely low capacitance bidirectional ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD)

protection diode, part of the TrEOS protection family. This device is housed in a DSN0603D

(SOD962D) leadless, ultra-small Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) package designed to protect one

signal line from the damage caused by ESD and other transients.

2. Features and benefits

• Bidirectional ESD protection of one line

• VRWM = 1 V device

• Very low diode capacitance Cd = 0.18 pF typical

• Extremely low clamping and trigger voltage to protect sensitive I/Os

• ESD protection up to ±15 kV (contact mode) according to IEC 61000-4-2

• Very high surge robustness: 6 A for a 8/20 μs pulse

• IEC 61000-4-4 robust up to 40 A into a 50 Ohm termination (2 kV)

• Ultra small, very low inductance SMD package

3. Applications

• Cellular handsets and accessories

• Portable electronics

• Communication systems

• Computers and peripherals
