ESD protection for USB OTG ports

12 May 2010 Circuit & System Protection

Vishay has announced a new ESD protection array featuring low capacitance and leakage current to protect USB-OTG ports against transient voltage signals.

The new VBUS053BZ-HNH-G-08 provides three lines of USB ESD protection at a 5,5 V working range, and one line of VBUS protection at a 12 V working range.

The device is packaged in the leadless LLP1713-9M, with a low profile of 0,6 mm to minimise the board space required for active ESD protection in high-speed data applications.

The new device features a low load capacitance of 0,7 pF for the three data lines D+, D- and ID, and a low maximum leakage current of 0,085 μA at the working voltage of 3,3 V, and 1 μA at 5,5 V. The array provides a low maximum clamping voltage of >4,1 V for negative transients and <18 V for positive transients at 3 A for the data lines. For the VBUS line, the VBUS053BZ-HNH-G-08 features a maximum clamping voltage of 30 V at 8 A. The device provides transient protection as per IEC 61000 4 2 (ESD) at 12 kV (air discharge) and 15 kV (contact discharge), with surge current protection in accordance with IEC 6100-4-5 from 3 A.
