Low Capacitance TVS Diode Array
For Multi-mode Tranciever Protection
PROTECTION PRODUCTS
Description
The LCDA15C-6 has been specifically designed to
protect sensitive components which are connected to
data and transmission lines from over voltages caused
by
ESD
(electrostatic discharge),
EFT
(electrical fast
transients), and
lightning.
The low capacitance array configuration of the
LCDA15C-6 allows the user to protect six high-speed
data or I/O lines. They may be used on systems
operating from 5 to 15 Volts. The high surge capability
(500W, tp=8/20µs) makes the LCDA15C-6 suitable for
telecommunications systems operating in harsh tran-
sient environments. The low inductance construction
minimizes voltage overshoot during high current
surges.
The features of the LCDA15C-6 are ideal for protecting
multi-protocol transceivers in WAN applications such as
Frame Relay systems, routers, and switches.
