SGS Thomson Microelectronics GS-P15-A Datasheet

BIDIRECTIONALDATALINE PROTECTOR

DESCRIPTION

The GS-P15-Ais a Bidirectional Data Line Protec­tion System against EOS (Electrical Over Stress)
and ESD (ElectricalStatic Discharge).

This subminiature male/female connector, de­signedbothfor EIARS232CandV24 with 15 lines,
shunts to groundhazardous overvoltagesinduced
on an EIA cable.
