1. General description

Extremely low clamping low capacitance bidirectional ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) protection

diode, which is part of the TrEOS protection family. The device is housed in a DSN0603-2

(SOD962-2) leadless ultra small Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) package designed to protect one

signal line from damage caused by ESD and other transients.

2. Features and benefits

• Bidirectional ESD protection of one line

• Extremely high surge robustness of 20 A 8/20 μs

• Low diode capacitance Cd = 0.78 pF

• Extremely low clamping voltage to protect sensitive I/Os: VCL = 3.4 V at 20 A 8/20 μs

• Extremely low inductance protection path to ground

• ESD protection up to ±20 kV according to IEC 61000-4-2

• Ultra small SMD package

3. Applications

• Cellular handsets and accessories

• Portable electronics

• Communication systems

• Computers and peripherals
