Polymeric ESD Suppressors

PGB Series 0603 Surface Mount ESD Suppressor

Product Overview

PulseGuard ESD Suppressors help protect sensitive electronic
equipment against electrostatic discharge (ESD). They supplement the
on-chip protection of integrated circuitry and are best suited for low­voltage, high-speed applications where low capacitance is important.
Data ports utilizing such high-speed protocols as USB 2.0, IEEE1394
and InfiniBandSMcan benefit from this new technology.

PulseGuard suppressors use polymer composite materials to
suppress fast-rising ESD transients (as specified in IEC 61000-4-2
and MIL-STD-883C).

Design Consideration

Because of the fast rise-time of the ESD transient, placement of
PulseGuard suppressors is a key design consideration. To achieve
optimal ESD suppression, the devices should be placed on the circuit
board as close to the source of the ESD transient as possible. Install
PulseGuard suppressors directly behind the connector so that they are
the first board-level circuit component encountered by the ESD transient.
They are connected from signal/data line to ground.

SUPPRESSORS

Definitions

Trigger Voltage: The measured peak voltage across the ESD
suppressor before it transitions from high to low resistance. It is
manifested as a “spike” before the clamping voltage is achieved. This
voltage is typically well below the damage threshold of on-chip IC
protection.

Clamping Voltage: The voltage level to which the ESD impulse voltage
is reduced. This is the voltage that the suppressor holds at, until the ESD
transient energy is dissipated.

ESD Impulse Voltage: Also known as the ESD Threat Voltage. This is
the voltage that is “zapped” into the circuit. Voltages generated by people
can exceed 15 kV. The IEC 61000-4-2 defines four levels of impulse
voltage for testing purposes:
