Lightning Surge Protection - SLVU2.8 Series
SLVu2.8 Series 2.8V 40A TVS Array
Pinout
Pb
Description
The SLVU2.8 series was designed to protect low voltage,
CMOS devices from ESD and lightning induced transients.
There is a compensating diode in parallel with the low
voltage TVS to protect one unidirectional line or a high
speed data pair when two devices are paired together.
These robust structures can safely absorb repetitive ESD
strikes at ±30kV (contact discharge) per the IEC61000-4-2
standard and each structure can safely dissipate up to 40A
(IEC61000-4-5, t
Features
• ESD, IEC61000-4-2,
±30kV contact, ±30kV air
• EFT, IEC61000-4-4, 40A
(5/50ns)
• Lightning, IEC61000-4-5,
40A (8/20μs)
Applications
=8/20μs) with very low clamping voltages.
P
• Low capacitance of 2pF
per line (Pin 2 to 1)
• Low leakage current of
1μA (MAX) at 2.8V
• Small SOT23-3 (JEDEC
TO-236) package saves
board space
