Ultra-Low Capacitance TVS for ESD and CDE Protection
PROTECTION PRODUCTS - RailClamp® www.DataSheet4U.com Description
RailClamps are ultra low capacitance TVS arrays designed to protect high speed data interfaces. This series has been specifically designed to protect sensitive components which are connected to high-speed data and transmission lines from overvoltage caused by ESD (electrostatic discharge), CDE (Cable Discharge Events), and EFT (electrical fast transients). The RClampTM2402B has a typical capacitance of only 0.60pF (pin 1 to 2). This means it can be used on circuits operating in excess of 3GHz without signal attenuation. They may be used to meet the ESD immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4 (±15kV air, ±8kV contact discharge).
