ESD Protection
Please be aware, that the TMC246 is an ESD sensitive device due to integrated high performance
MOS transistors.
ESD sensitive device
If the ICs are manually handled before / during soldering, special precautions have to be taken to
avoid ESD voltages above 100V HBM (Human body model). For automated SMD equipment the
internal device protection is specified with 1000V CDM (charged device model), tbf.
When soldered to the application board, all inputs and outputs withstand at least 1000V HBM.
