Vishay has released what it claims is the industry's first ESD protection array to integrate eight diodes in the very small, leadless LLP1713 package. With an extremely low profile of 0,55 mm, the VESD05A8A-HNH is designed to provide ESD protection while saving board space in portable electronics. The device protects up to eight signal or data lines in bidirectional asymmetrical (BiAs) mode, and can also be used as a seven-line protection device in bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) mode. The ESD diode array features a low typical capacitance of 30 pF and a low maximum leakage current of <1 mA at 5 V. The VESD05A8A-HNH provides transient protection for one data line as per IEC6100042 (ESD) at 25 kV and IEC6100045 (lightning) from 4,5 A (tp=8/20 μs).
