UCLAMP0524P Datasheet, PDF (1/8 Pages) Semtech Corporation – Low Voltage TVS for ESD Protection
PROTECTION PRODUCTS - MicroClampTM
Description
The µClampTM series of TVS arrays are designed to
protect sensitive electronics from damage or latch-up
due to ESD, lightning, and other voltage-induced
transient events. Each device will protect up to four
lines operating at 5 volts.
The µClampTM0524P is a solid-state device designed
specifically for transient suppression. It is designed to
replace multilayer varistors (MLVs) in portable applica-
tions such as cell phones, notebook computers, and
PDAs. It features large cross-sectional area junctions for
conducting high transient currents. It offers superior
electrical characteristics such as lower clamping voltage
and no device degradation when compared to MLVs.
The µClampTM0524P may be used to meet the immunity
requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, level 4 (±15kV air, ±8kV
contact discharge). The “flow-thru” design of the device
results in enhanced ESD performance due to reduced
board trace inductance. The result is lower clamping
voltage and a higher level of protection when compared
to conventional TVS devices.
The µClamp0524P is in an 8-pin, RoHS/WEEE compli-
ant, SLP2116P8 package. It measures 2.1 x 1.6 x
0.58mm. The leads are spaced at a pitch of 0.5mm
and are finished with lead-free NiPd. The small package
makes it ideal for use in portable electronics such as cell
phones, digital still cameras, and notebook computers.
