CM1216

PRELIMINARY www.DataSheet4U.com CM1216 6- and 8-Channel Low Capacitance ESD Arrays Features 6 and 8 channels of ESD protection Provides +15 kV ESD protection on each channel per the IEC 61000-4-2 ESD requirements Channel loading capacitance of 1.6 pF typical Channel I/O to GND capacitance difference of 0.04pF typical Mutual capacitance of 0.13pF typical Minimal capacitance change with temperature and voltage Each I/O pin can withstand over 1000 ESD strikes SOIC and MSOP packages Lead-free versions available Product Description The CM1216 family of diode arrays has been designed to provide ESD protection for electronic components or sub-systems requiring minimal capacitive loading. These devices are ideal for protecting systems with high data and clock rates or for circuits requiring low capacitive loading. Each ESD channel consists of a pair of diodes in series which steer the positive or negative ESD current pulse to either the positive (VP) or negative (VN) supply rail. The CM1216 will protect against ESD pulses up to +15kV per the IEC 61000-4-2 standard. This device is particularly well-suited for protecting systems using high-speed ports such as USB2.0, IEEE1394 (Firewire®, iLink™), Serial ATA, DVI, HDMI and corresponding ports in removable storage, digital camcorders, DVD-RW drives and other applications where extremely low loading capacitance with ESD protection are required in a small package footprint. The CM1216 family of devices is available with ...
