RailClamps are surge rated diode arrays designed to
protect high speed data interfaces. The SR series has
been specifically designed to protect sensitive components which are connected to data and transmission
lines from overvoltage caused by ESD (electrostatic
discharge), EFT (electrical fast transients), and light-
ning.
The unique design of the SR series devices incorporates four surge rated, low capacitance steering diodes
and a TVS diode in a single package. During transient
conditions, the steering diodes direct the transient to
either the positive side of the power supply line or to
ground. The internal TVS diode prevents over-voltage
on the power line, protecting any downstream components.
The low capacitance array configuration allows the user
to protect two high-speed data or transmission lines.
The low inductance construction minimizes voltage
overshoot during high current surges.

Device Connection Options for Protection of Two
High-Speed Data Lines
The SR05 TVS is designed to protect two data lines
from transient over-voltages by clamping them to a
fixed reference. When the voltage on the protected
line exceeds the reference voltage (plus diode V
steering diodes are forward biased, conducting the
transient current away from the sensitive circuitry.
Data lines are connected at pins 2 and 3. The negative reference (REF1) is connected at pin 1. This pin
should be connected directly to a ground plane on the
board for best results. The path length is kept as short
as possible to minimize parasitic inductance.
The positive reference (REF2) is connected at pin 4.
The options for connecting the positive reference are
as follows:
1. To protect data lines and the power line, connect
pin 4 directly to the positive supply rail (VCC). In this
configuration the data lines are referenced to the
supply voltage. The internal TVS diode prevents
over-voltage on the supply rail.
2. The SR05 can be isolated from the power supply by
adding a series resistor between pin 4 and VCC. A
value of 10kΩ is recommended. The internal TVS
and steering diodes remain biased, providing the
advantage of lower capacitance.
3. In applications where no positive supply reference
is available, or complete supply isolation is desired,
the internal TVS may be used as the reference. In
this case, pin 4 is not connected. The steering
diodes will begin to conduct when the voltage on
the protected line exceeds the working voltage of
the TVS (plus one diode drop).

ESD Protection With RailClamps
RailClamps are optimized for ESD protection using the
rail-to-rail topology. Along with good board layout,
these devices virtually eliminate the disadvantages of
using discrete components to implement this topology.
Consider the situation shown in Figure 1 where discrete diodes or diode arrays are configured for rail-torail protection on a high speed line. During positive
duration ESD events, the top diode will be forward
biased when the voltage on the protected line exceeds
the reference voltage plus the V
drop of the diode.

ESD current reaches a peak amplitude of 30A in 1ns
for a level 4 ESD contact discharge per IEC 1000-4-2.
Therefore, the voltage overshoot due to 1nH of series
inductance is:
V = LP di
/dt = 1X10-9 (30 / 1X10-9) = 30V
ESD
Example:
Consider a VCC = 5V, a typical VF of 30V (at 30A) for the
steering diode and a series trace inductance of 10nH.
The clamping voltage seen by the protected IC for a
positive 8kV (30A) ESD pulse will be:
VC = 5V + 30V + (10nH X 30V/nH) = 335V
This does not take into account that the ESD current is
directed into the supply rail, potentially damaging any
components that are attached to that rail. Also note
that it is not uncommon for the VF of discrete diodes to
exceed the damage threshold of the protected IC. This
is due to the relatively small junction area of typical
discrete components. It is also possible that the
power dissipation capability of the discrete diode will
be exceeded, thus destroying the device.

the current will be directed through the integrated TVS
diode to ground. The total clamping voltage seen by
the protected IC due to this path will be:

This is given in the data sheet as the rated clamping
voltage of the device. For a SR05 the typical clamping
voltage is <16V at I
=30A. The diodes internal to the
PP
RailClamp are low capacitance, fast switching devices
that are rated to handle transient currents and maintain excellent forward voltage characteristics.
Universal Serial Bus ESD Protection
The figure below illustrates how to use the SR05 to
protect one upstream USB port and the SRDA05-4 to
protect two downstream USB ports. When the voltage
on the data lines exceed the bus voltage (plus one
diode drop), the internal rectifiers are forward biased
conducting the transient current away from the protected controller chip. The TVS diode directs the surge
to ground. The TVS diode also acts to suppress ESD
strikes directly on the voltage bus. Thus, both power
and data pins are protected with a single device.
