AOZ8844
Ultra-Low Capacitance TVS Diode
General Description
Features
The AOZ8844 is a transient voltage suppressor array
designed to protect high speed data lines such as HDMI,
USB 3.0, MDDI, SATA, and Gigabit Ethernet from
damaging ESD events.
 ESD protection for high-speed data lines:
This device incorporates eight surge rated, low
capacitance steering diodes and a TVS in a single
package. During transient conditions, the steering diodes
direct the transient to either the positive side of the power
supply line or to ground.
The AOZ8844 provides a typical line-to-line capacitance
of 0.26 pF and low insertion loss up to 6 GHz providing
greater signal integrity making it ideally suited for
HDMI 1.3 or USB 3.0 applications, such as Digital TVs,
DVD players, computing, set-top boxes and MDDI
applications in mobile computing devices.
The AOZ8844 comes in a RoHS compliant and Halogen
Free 1.3 mm x 0.8 mm x 0.4 mm DFN-5 package and is
rated for -40 °C to +125 °C junction temperature range.

High Speed PCB Layout Guidelines
Printed circuit board layout is the key to achieving the
highest level of surge immunity on power and data lines.
The location of the protection devices on the PCB is the
simplest and most important design rule to follow. The
AOZ8844DT devices should be located as close as
possible to the noise source. The AOZ8844DT device
should be placed on all data and power lines that enter or
exit the PCB at the I/O connector. In most systems, surge
pulses occur on data and power lines that enter the PCB
through the I/O connector. Placing the AOZ8844DT
devices as close as possible to the noise source ensures
that a surge voltage will be clamped before the pulse can
be coupled into adjacent PCB traces. In addition, the
PCB should use the shortest possible traces. A short
trace length equates to low impedance, which ensures
that the surge energy will be dissipated by the
AOZ8844DT device. Long signal traces will act as
antennas to receive energy from fields that are produced
by the ESD pulse. By keeping line lengths as short as
possible, the efficiency of the line to act as an antenna for
ESD related fields is reduced. Minimize interconnecting
line lengths by placing devices with the most interconnect
as close together as possible. The protection circuits
should shunt the surge voltage to either the reference or
chassis ground. Shunting the surge voltage directly to the
IC’s signal ground can cause ground bounce. The
clamping performance of TVS diodes on a single ground
PCB can be improved by minimizing the impedance with
relatively short and wide ground traces. The PCB layout
and IC package parasitic inductances can cause
significant overshoot to the TVS’s clamping voltage. The
inductance of the PCB can be reduced by using short
trace lengths and multiple layers with separate ground
and power planes. One effective method to minimize
loop problems is to incorporate a ground plane in the
PCB design.
The AOZ8844DT ultra-low capacitance TVS is designed
to protect four high speed data transmission lines from
transient over-voltages by clamping them to a fixed
reference. The low inductance and construction
minimizes voltage overshoot during high current surges.
When the voltage on the protected line exceeds the
reference voltage the internal steering diodes are forward
biased, conducting the transient current away from the
sensitive circuitry. The AOZ8844DT is designed for ease
of PCB layout by allowing the traces to run underneath
the device. The pinout of the AOZ8844DT is designed to
simply drop onto the IO lines of a High Definition
Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or USB 3.0 design without
having to divert the signal lines that may add more
parasitic inductance. Pins 1, 2, 4 and 5 are connected to
the internal TVS devices and pins 6, 7, 9 and 10 are no
connects. The no connects was done so the package can
be securely soldered onto the PCB surface.
