Problem/Solution
The SP3042 Series back-to-back TVS diodes, fabricated in a proprietary silicon avalanche technology, provide symmetrical ESD protection for data lines when AC signals are present.
Features
- Bidirectional performance provides flexibility in assembly
- Provides linear frequency response performance across the working voltage
- Low dynamic resistance (0.5 ?)
- Provides 30kV ESD protection and supports up to 2 A (8/20µs)
Benefits
- No wrong way to place the part on the printed circuit board
- Important consideration if used to protect the receive path of low powered antennas
- Provides fast response during an ESD event
- Robust protection for high-speed interfaces
