DESCRIPTION
These low capacitance diode arrays with common cathode are multiple, discrete, isolated junctions fabricated by a planar process and mounted in a 10-PIN package for use as steering diodes protecting up to eight I/O ports from ESD, EFT, or surge by directing them to the positive side of the power supply line (see figure 1). This circuit application is further complimented by the 1N5770 (separate data sheet) that has a common anode.

FEATURES
• Hermetic Ceramic Package
• Isolated Diodes To Eliminate Cross-Talk Voltages
• High Breakdown Voltage VBR > 60 V at 10 μA
• Low Leakage IR< 100nA at 40 V
• Low Capacitance C < 4.0 pF
• Options for screening in accordance with MIL-PRF-
   19500/474 for JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, and JANS are
   available by adding MQ, MX, MV, or MSP prefixes
   respectively to part numbers. For example, designate
   MX1N5768 for a JANTX screen.
