Application Note

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a major cause of failure in electronic systems. Transient Voltage

Suppressors (TVS) are an ideal choice for ESD protection. They are capable of clamping the incoming transient

Surface mount TVS arrays offer the best choice for minimal lead inductance. They serve as parallel

protection elements, connected between the signal line to ground. As the transient rises above the operating

voltage of the device, the TVS array becomes a low impedance path diverting the transient current to ground.

The

array is the ideal board evel protection of ESD sensitive semiconductor components.

The tiny SOT23 package allows design flexibility in the design of high density boards where the space

saving is at a premium. This enables to shorten the routing and contributes to hardening againt ESD.
