1. General description

Ultra low capacitance bidirectional ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) protection diode, part of the

TrEOS Protection family. This device is housed in a DSN0603-2 (SOD962-2) leadless ultra

small Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) package. The TrEOS Protection family is optimized

for safeguarding very sensitive high-speed interfaces against ESD pulses with a high level of

robustness.

2. Features and benefits

• Suitable for USB4 and Thunderbolt3 data lines

• Backwards compatible to USB 3.2 due to VRWM = 2.8 V

• Extremely low insertion loss of -0.21 dB at 10 GHz

• Extremely low return loss of -17.4 dB at 10 GHz

• Bidirectional ESD protection of one line

• Extremely low diode capacitance Cd = 0.1 pF

• ESD protection up to ±10 kV according to IEC 61000-4-2

• Ultra small SMD package

3. Applications

ESD and surge protection for:

• USB4 and Thunderbolt3 data lines

• very sensitive interface lines

in portable electronics, communication, consumer and computing devices.
