TVS Diode Array
Description
The SM series of transient voltage suppressors (TVS)
are designed to protect components which are
connected to data and transmission lines from voltage
surges caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD),
electrical fast transients (EFT), and lightning.
TVS diodes are characterized by their high surge
capability, low operating and clamping voltages, and
fast response time. This makes them ideal for use as
board level protection of sensitive semiconductor
components. The dual-junction common-anode design
allows the user to protect one bidirectional data line or
two unidirectional lines. The low profile SOT23
package allows flexibility in the design of “crowded”
circuit boards.
The SM series will meet the surge requirements of IEC
61000-4-2 (Formerly IEC 801-2), Level 4, “Human
Body Model” for air and contact discharge.

Applications Information
SM05 through SM36
Device Connection Options
The SM series is designed to protect one bidirectional
or two unidirectional data or I/O lines operating at 5 to
36 volts. Connection options are as follows:
zz
z Bidirectional: Pin 1 is connected to the data line
zz
and pin 2 is connected to ground (Since the device
is symmetrical, these connections may be reversed). The ground connection should be made
directly to a ground plane. The path length should
be kept as short as possible to minimize parasitic
inductance. Pin 3 is not connected.
zz
Unidirectional: Data lines are connected to pin 1
z
zz
and pin 2. Pin 3 is connected to ground. For best
results, this pin should be connected directly to a
ground plane on the board. The path length should
be kept as short as possible to minimize parasitic
inductance.
Circuit Board Layout Recommendations for Suppression of ESD.
Good circuit board layout is critical for the suppression
of fast rise-time transients such as ESD. The following
guidelines are recommended (Refer to application note
SI99-01 for more detailed information):
z Place the TVS near the input terminals or connec-
tors to restrict transient coupling.
z Minimize the path length between the TVS and the
protected line.
z Minimize all conductive loops including power and
ground loops.
z The ESD transient return path to ground should be
kept as short as possible.
z Never run critical signals near board edges.
z Use ground planes whenever possible.
Device Schematic & Pin Configuration
RS-232 Transceiver Protection Example
Matte Tin Lead Finish
Matte tin has become the industry standard lead-free
replacement for SnPb lead finishes. A matte tin finish
is composed of 100% tin solder with large grains.
Since the solder volume on the leads is small compared to the solder paste volume that is placed on the
land pattern of the PCB, the reflow profile will be
determined by the requirements of the solder paste.
Therefore, these devices are compatible with both
lead-free and SnPb assembly techniques. In addition,
unlike other lead-free compositions, matte tin does not
have any added alloys that can cause degradation of
the solder joint.
