The IP4281CZ10 is designed for HDMI interface protection. The device includes
high-level ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) protection diodes for the TMDS signal lines.
All TMDS intra-pairs are protected by a special diode configuration offering a low line
capacitance of only 0.7 pF. These diodes provide protection to downstream components
from ESD voltages up to ±8 kV contact according to IEC 61000-4-2, level 4.
1.2 Features
n Pb-free, RoHS compliant and free of Halogen and Antimony (dark green compliant)
n ESD protection for HDMI and other LVDS data lines
n All TMDS lines with integrated rail-to-rail clamping diodes for downstream ESD
protection of ±8 kV according to IEC61000-4-2, level 4
n Matched 0.5 mm trace spacing
n TMDS lines with ≤ 0.05 pF matching capacitance between TMDS pairs
n Line capacitance of only 0.7 pF for each channel
n 4-channel, 10-terminal Ultra-Thin Leadless Package (UTLP)
n HDMI 1.3a compliant
1.3 Applications
The IP4281CZ10 is designed for HDMI receiver and transmitter port protection:
n TV, monitor
n Notebook, main board graphics card and ports
n Set-top box and game consoles
n DVD recorder and player

7.Application information
The IP4281CZ10 is mainly designed to provide high-level ESD protection for high-speed
serial data buses such as HDMI and other LVDS data lines.
Therefore, careful printed-circuit board design with respect to impedance matching,
coupling to other signals etc. is recommended. An example showing a basic abstract view
of a layout for an HDMI interface is shown in Figure 1.
