DESCRIPTION

The PLC497 is an ultra low capacitance steering diode/TVS array. Designed for protection against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), Electrical Fast Transients (EFT) and secondary lightning threats, this device is ideal for use in high-speed signal interface applications.

The PLC497 is available in the small SOT-23 package, which reduces internal lead inductance for low overshoot voltage during fast front time transient events like ESD. This device meets the IEC 61000-4-2 and IEC 61000-4-4 requirements.
