FUNCTIONALDIAGRAM
DESCRIPTION
Transil diode arrays provide high overvoltage
protectionby clampingaction.Theirinstantaneous
response to transient overvoltages makes them
particularly suited to protect voltage sensitive
devicessuch as MOS Technologyand low voltage
suppliedIC’s.
The ITA series allies highsurge capabilityagainst
energetic pulses with high voltage performance
againstESD.
The separated input/output configuration of the
device ensures improved protection against very
fast transient overvoltagelike ESD by elimination
of the spikes induced by parasitic inductances
createdby external wiring.
