Four-line ESD protection array

23 June 2010 Circuit & System Protection

The VCUT05A4-05S-G-08 is Vishay’s new four-line bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) ESD protection diode array. It offers low capacitance and leakage current for ESD protection in a wide range of data port applications such as USB 2.0 in PCs and portable consumer electronics.

The array offers low capacitance of 16 pF typical at 0 V and a low leakage current of <0,1 μA at the working voltage of 5 V. Its widely used SOT23-5L package allows easy handling in production while featuring an ultra-low profile of 0,7 mm for board space savings. The device provides transient protection for four data lines as per IEC 61000 4 2 (ESD) at ±25 kV (air discharge) and ±20 kV (contact discharge). It offers high surge current protection according to IEC 61000-4-5 at more than 3,5 A.

The new array is compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC and in accordance to WEEE 2002/96/EC. Its lead-free construction offers pure tin pin plating and a halogen-free moulding compound.
