ChipGuard® MLC Series - ESD Protectors
General Information
The ChipGuard® MLC Series has been specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic
components from electrostatic discharge damage. The MLC family has been designed to
protect equipment to IEC61000-4-2, Level 4 (±8 kV Contact / ±15 kV Air Discharge) ESD
specifications targeted for high speed USB 3.0/USB OTG, HDMI 1.4, DVI or IEEE1394
applications.
The ChipGuard® MLC Series has been manufactured to provide low 0.5 pF capacitance and
leakage currents less than 50 nA with excellent clamp qualities, making the family almost
transparent under normal working conditions.

Notes: 1. Per IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4 8 kV Contact Discharge. Measurement 30 ns after initiation of pulse.
2. Per IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4 8 kV Contact Discharge. Measurement at maximum pulse voltage.
3. IEC 61000-4-2 ESD Performance for CG0603MLC-05E and CG0603MLC-12E devices will meet minimum 100 reps.
Some shifting in characteristics may occur when tested over several hundred ESD pulses. All other part numbers listed will meet
IEC 61000-4-2 ESD Performance with minimum 1000 reps without degradation in performance.
