TVS array for high resolution display and USB circuit protection

The new steering diode / TVS array offers an ultra-low capacitance of 0.15pF typical for I/O-I/O and 0.45pF typical for I/O-GND. ProTek Devices’ PUSB403 also meets IEC standards 61000-4-2 (ESD): air ±16kV, contact ±16kV; and 61000-4-4 (EFT); as well as 61000-4-5 (lightning).

The circuit protection device protects up to four lines and offers low leakage current of < 100nA. Also, at higher operating frequencies or faster edge rates, insertion loss and signal integrity are a major concern. This device, in conjunction with passive components integrated into a TVS / filter network, can be used for EMI / RFI protection. The PUSB403 is also RoHS and REACH compliant.

Operating and storage temperature is rated at -40 to +85°C. Peak pulse current, at 8/20 microseconds, is 6 Amps. Other ideal applications benefiting from the PUSB403’s features can include Gigabit Ethernet, DVI and telecommunications equipment interfaces.

ProTek Devices’ PUSB403 steering diode / TVS array for circuit protection is now available in a molded JEDEC DFN-10 package with an approximate weight of just seven milligrammes. Other key mechanical characteristics include lead-free pure-tin plating (annealed) and a solder reflow temperature (pure-tin - Sn, 100) of 260-270°C. The new device also has a flammability rating of UL 94V-0. This new device comes packaged on 8mm tape and reel per EIA standard 481 in quantities starting at 3,000.
