Market Applications:
ESD protection of high-speed data ports like HDMI, USB 3.0, and Thunderbolt in portable electronics, including smartphones, mobile phones, digital cameras, MP3 players, and portable gaming systems
The News:
Vishay Intertechnology today released a new bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) single-line ESD protection diode for portable electronics that offers ultra-low capacitance and leakage current in the ultra-compact CLP0603 package.
- Provides protection of high-speed data lines and antennas against transient voltage signals
- Chip-level package in the 0603 case size is one of the smallest in the industry
- Low line inductance
The Key Specifications:
- Package: CLP0603
- Load capacitance: 0.29pF typical; 0.4 pF maximum
- Leakage current: < 0.1 μA
- Working voltage: 5.5 V
- Typical breakdown voltage: 8.8 V at 1 mA
- Maximum clamping voltage: 18 V at 2.5 A
The Perspective:
In portable electronics, the Vishay Semiconductors VBUS05B1-SD0 offers ultra-low capacitance down to 0.29pF typical and leakage current of < 0.1 μA for the protection of high-speed data lines and antennas against transient voltage signals. The VBUS05B1-SD0’s chip-level package in the 0603 case size is one of the smallest in the industry, requiring three times less board space than packages in the 1006 case size. Due to its short leads and small package size, the diode’s line inductance is very low, allowing fast transients such as an ESD strike to be clamped with minimal over- or undershoots.
Availability: Samples and production quantities of the new VBUS05B1-SD0 are available now, with lead times of eight weeks for large orders.
