CM1230-02CP

The CM1230-02CP is a low-capacitance ESD Protection Array ideal for protecting systems with high data and clock rates or for circuits that need low capacitive loading. Each channel consists of a pair of ESD diodes that act as clamp diodes to steer ESD current pulses to either the positive or negative supply rail. A Zener diode is integrated between the positive and negative supply rails. The VCC rail is protected from ESD strikes and eliminates the need for a bypass capacitor to absorb positive ESD strikes to ground. Each channel can safely dissipate ESD strikes of ±8kV meeting the level 4 requirement of the IEC61000-4-2 international standard as well as ±15kV air discharges per the IEC61000-4-2 specification. This device is well-suited for next generation wireless handsets that implement high-speed serial interface solutions for the LCD display and camera interfaces.
