General Purpose ESD Protection - SP1008 Series
SP1008 Series 6pF 15kV Bidirectional Discrete TVS Protection
Description
The SP1008 includes back-to-back TVS diodes fabricated
in a proprietary silicon avalanche technology to provide
protection for electronic equipment that may experience
destructive electrostatic discharges (ESD). These robust
diodes can safely absorb repetitive ESD strikes above the
maximum level specified in the IEC61000-4-2 international
standard (±15kV contact discharge) without performance
degradation. The back-to-back configuration provides
symmetrical ESD protection for data lines when AC signals
are present.
