Littelfuse, Inc. has introduced the SP3022 Series Low Capacitance ESD Protection TVS Diode Arrays (SPA® Diodes). These robust 0.35pF, 20kV bidirectional (back-to-back) discrete TVS diodes can safely absorb repetitive ESD strikes over the maximum level specified in the IEC61000-4-2 international standard without performance degradation. The SP3022 Series’ back-to-back configuration provides symmetrical ESD protection for data lines when ac signals are present. Their ultra-low loading capacitance (just 0.35pF) makes them suited for protecting high-speed data lines, such as all released versions of HDMI and USB, DisplayPort™, V-by-One™ and eSATA. They’re also well suited for use in consumer electronics like set-top boxes, game consoles, smartphones, ultrabooks, notebooks, tablets and eReaders.
