1. General description
Symmetrical bidirectional ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) protection diode array, part of the TrEOS
protection family. This device is housed in a DFN0603-3 (SOT8013) leadless ultra small Surface-
Mounted Device (SMD) package designed to protect two signal lines from the damage caused by
ESD and other transients.
2. Features and benefits
• Bidirectional ESD protection of two lines
• Very low diode capacitance Cd = 0.21 pF
• Extremely low clamping to protect sensitive I/Os
• Extremely low-inductance protection path to ground
• Extremely symmetrical layout
• ESD protection up to ±20 kV according to IEC 61000-4-2; surge robustness 8.5 A 8/20 μs
• Ultra small SMD package
• Placed on one differential line pair, almost no extra PCB space demand for protection
3. Applications
• Thunderbolt, USB3.2 and HDMI2.1 data lines
• Cellular handsets and accessories
• Portable electronics
• Communication systems
• Computers and peripherals
