• Manufacturer Part Number: esda6v2s6
• Description: Transil Array For Esd Protection
• Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics

APPLICATION EXAMPLE :
1 - Protection of logic-level signals.
(ex : centronics junction)
Implementing its ASD
has developed a monolithic TRANSIL diode array,
which is a reliable protection against electrostatic
overloads for computer I/O ports, modems, GSM
handsetsand accessories or other similar systems
with data outputs. The ESDAxxSx integrates 18
TRANSIL diodes in a compact package that canbe
easily mounted close to the circuitry to be
protected,

2 - Protection of symmetrical signals.
Note : Capacitancevalue between any I/O pin and
Ground is divided by 2.
associated with the use of discrete diodes, and
also increasing system reliability.
Each TRANSIL has a breakdown voltage between
6.2V (minimum) and 7.2V (maximum). When the
input voltage is lower than the breakdown voltage,
the diodes present a high impedance to ground.
For short overvoltage pulses, the fast-acting
diodes provide an almost instantaneousresponse,
clamping the voltage to a safe level.
