Introduction
This document provides information and measurement results of the external LNA including Diplexer designed for
TV tuner ICs (e.g.TUA 9001).The DVB-T signal from the antenna is amplified and then separated with a diplexer
for the VHF and UHF inputs of the tuner IC. The BFR380 application provides a excellent compromise between
good noise performance and appropriate Intermodulation capability, and this combined with an outstanding cost
/ performance ratio.

Appendix 1: ESD protection circuit for system level ESD robustness
Appendix 1: ESD protection circuit for system level ESD robustness
Introduction
With the advancement in miniaturization of semiconductor structures, ESD handling capability of the devices is
becoming a concern. Increasing ESD handling capability of the I/O ports costs additional chip size and affects the
I/O capacitance significantly. This is very important for high frequency devices, especially when high linearity is
required. Therefore, tailored and cost effective ESD protection devices can be used to build up an ESD protection
circuit. To handle ESD events during assembly, devices normally have on-chip ESD protection according to the
device level standards e.g. “Human Body Model” JEDEC 22-A-115. To fulfill the much more stringent system level
ESD requirements according to IEC61000-4-2 as shown in Figure 15, the external ESD protection circuit has to
handle the majority of the ESD strike. The best external ESD protection is achieved using a TVS diode assisted
by additional passive components.

Some examples of RF applications addressed by the Infineon ESD protection proposal are given below:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
FM Radio (76 MHz -110 MHz)
Portable TV (170 - 220, 470 - 860 MHz)
WLAN 802.11b/g/n (2.4 GHz, Tx ~ +20 dBm)
Bluetooth (2.4 GHz, Tx ~ +20 dBm)
Automatic Meter Reading, AMR (900 MHz, TX ~ +20 dBm)
Remote Keyless Entry, RKE (315 MHz - 434 MHz - 868 MHz - 915 MHz, Tx~13 dBm)
GPS (1575 MHz, Rx only but can be affected by RF interferer)
For an ESD protection device tailored for medium power RF signals (=< +20 dBm), following requirements are
essential:
1. RF requirements
a) Bidirectional characteristic to handle DC free signals without clipping / signal distortion
b) A highly symmetrical behavior of the ESD device for positive and negative voltage swings is mandatory to
keep the power level of even Harmonics low
c) Breakdown voltage of 5 V-10V, to avoid signal distortion at high RF voltage swing applied at the TVS diode,
located close to the antenna
d) High linearity
e) Low leakage current and stable diode capacitance vs. RF voltage swing
f) Ultra low diode capacitance is mandatory
2. ESD requirements:

c) No performance degradation over a large number of ESD zaps (>1000
Two-step ESD Protection approach
General structure for a 2-step ESD approach according to Figure 16 enables to split the entire ESD current
between the internal and external ESD protection device. The external device is much more robust and handles
the majority of the ESD current. To avoid any impact on the RF behavior of the system and to minimize non
linearity effects, the TVS diode should possess an ultra low device capacitance.
Therefore the bi-directional (symmetrical) Infineon TVS Diode ESD0P2RF is well suited, which provides a diode
capacitance as low as 0.2 pF and a Rdyn of only 1 Ohm. ESD robustness can be improved one step more by adding
a small serial resistor between the external TVS diode and the RF amplifier input. A resistor of ~2.2 Ohm is a good
compromise between additional ESD performance and insertion loss. The TVS diode ESD0P2RF in combination
with the 2.2 Ohm ESD resistor would incur less than 0.23dB insertion loss up to 3 GHz.

Smart 2-step ESD protection approach based on external and internal ESD protection structure
For further ESD improvement it is highly recommend to add a serial capacitor (C1). The capacitor cuts off most of
the high energy created by the ESD strike. For better ESD robustness, C1 should be as small as possible, but has
to match to the intended application frequency as well. For a broadband ESD protection (80MHz…3GHz) C1
should be about 100pF…150pF. Optional matching can be implemented with a serial inductor L1 for a dedicated
frequency. In combination with L1, C1 can be reduced significantly which improves the ESD performance.
