These diodes don’t just help against ESD – they’re a general safety measure for protecting IC and transistor pins, and they also might help avoid damaging IC pins if you mix.

The product uses the newly developed ESD Diode Array Process III (EAP III), and maintains the same ESD protection level with 1/2 capacitance of equivalent products [3] . It also realizes a small ...

The VETH100A1DD1 provides transient protection for data lines as per ISO 10605 and IEC 61000-4-2 at ± 15 kV (contact discharge) for 1000 pulses. For automotive applications, the protection diode ...

eries TVS diodes combines low-capacitance steering diodes with a Zener diode to protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and high surges. The devices provide 40% greater protection without ...

"ESD protection and core circuit co-design are increasingly important in advanced ICs, but conventional diode models do not account for ESD event regimes, during which the device operates under ...

The emergence of high-speed data protocols such as USB 2.0 has created the need for ESD protection devices with low capacitance—1 pF or less. Traditional methods of ESD protection like diodes ...

Toshiba has launched a new ESD protection diode, the DF2B7M3SC, with the lowest 0.1pF capacitance in its class. Scheduled for mass production in July 2013, the module is designed to protect USB3.0/2.0 ...

Described by its maker as the world's first of its kind, the LASORB component is described as an electrostatic-discharge (ESD) absorber that protects laser diodes, photodiodes and LEDs from single ...

Nexperia is aiming at protecting high-speed automotive data lines with ESD protection diodes whose capacitance is as low as 0.28pF. With stand-off voltages in the 18 – 32V range and a snap-back ...
