ESD protection for high-speed interfaces
Rev. 1 — 1 October 2012
Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The device is designed to protect high-speed interfaces such as High-Definition
Multimedia Interface (HDMI), DisplayPort, USB, external Serial Advanced Technology
Attachment (eSATA) and Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) interfaces against
ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD).
The device includes high-level ESD protection diodes structure for high-speed signal lines
in a 4-channel 0.4 mm pitch single Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP). These
features make the device ideal for use in applications requiring component miniaturization
such as mobile phone handsets and other portable electronic devices.
All signal lines are protected by a special diode configuration offering ultra low line
capacitance of 0.8 pF (typical). These diodes provide protection to downstream
components from ESD voltages up to 8 kV contact according to IEC 61000-4-2, level 4.
1.2 Features and benefits
 Pb-free, Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliant and free of halogen
and antimony (Dark Green compliant)
 System ESD protection for USB 2.0, USB On-The-Go (USB OTG), Ethernet and
Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
 All signal lines with integrated rail-to-rail clamping diodes structure for downstream
ESD protection of 8 kV according to IEC 61000-4-2, level 4
 2  2 solder ball WLCSP with 0.4 mm pitch and height < 500 m
 Signal lines with  0.05 pF matching capacitance between signal pairs
 Line capacitance of only 0.8 pF for each channel
1.3 Applications
The device is designed for high-speed receiver and transmitter port protection:
 Portable devices
 Mobile handsets
 Wireless data systems
 Digital cameras

Dynamic resistance with positive clamping
Fig 10. Dynamic resistance with negative clamping
The device uses an advanced clamping structure showing a negative dynamic resistance.
This snap-back behavior strongly reduces the clamping voltage to the system behind the
ESD protection during an ESD event. Do not connect unlimited DC current sources to the
data lines to avoid keeping the ESD protection device in snap-back state after exceeding
breakdown voltage (due to an ESD pulse for instance).

7. Design and assembly recommendations
7.1 PCB design guidelines
For optimum performance, use a Non-Solder Mask Defined (NSMD), also known as a
copper-defined design, incorporating laser-drilled micro-vias connecting the ground pads
to a buried ground-plane layer. This results in the lowest possible ground inductance and
provides the best high frequency and ESD performance. Refer to Table 6 for the
recommended Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) design parameters.
