PAC DN016
Product Description
The PAC DN016 is a diode array designed to provide 6 channels of ESD protection for electronic components or sub-
systems. Each channel consists of a pair of diodes which steers the ESD current pulse either to the positive (V
P
) or
negative (V
N
) supply. In addition, there is an integral Zener diode between V
P
and V
N
to suppress any voltage
disturbance due to these ESD current pulses. The PAC DN016 will protect against ESD pulses up to 15KV Human
Body Model, and 8KV contact discharge per International Standard IEC 61000-4-2.
This device is particularly well-suited for portable electronics (e.g. cellular phones, PDAs, notebook computers) because of
its small package footprint, high ESD protection level, and low loading capacitance. It is also suitable for protecting video
output lines and I/O ports in computers and peripheral equipment.
