6 channel 1.6-pF, 5.5-V, 8-kV ESD protection diode for High Speed Interfaces

The TPD6E004 device is a low-capacitance, ±15-kV ESD protection diode array designed to protect sensitive electronics attached to communication lines. Each channel consists of a pair of diodes that steers ESD current pulses to V CC or GND. The TPD6E004 protects against ESD pulses up to ±15-kV human-body model (HBM), ±8-kV contact ESD, and ±12-kV air-gap ESD as specified in IEC 61000-4-2. This device has a typical 1.6-pF capacitance per channel, making it an excellent choice for use in high-speed data I/O interfaces.

The TPD6E004 device is available in the RSE package and is specified for –40°C to +85°C operation.

The TPD6E004 device is a 6-channel ESD structure designed for USB, Ethernet, and FireWire applications.
