RCLAMP0544T.TCT

RailClamps0544T are ultra low capacitance TVS arrays designed to protect high speed data interfaces. This series has been specifically designed to protect sensitive components which are connected to high-speed data and transmission lines from overvoltage caused by ESD (electrostatic discharge), CDE (Cable Discharge Events), and EFT (electrical fast transients).The RClamp0544T has a typical capacitance of only 0.30pF between I/O pins. This allows it to be used on circuits operating in excess of 3GHz without signal attenuation. They may be used to meet the ESD immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2,Level 4 (±15kV air, ±8kV contact discharge). Each device is designed to protect four lines (two differential pairs).The RCIamp0544T is in a 8-pin, RoHS/WEEE compliant, SLP2010P8T package. It measures 2.0 x 1.0 x 0.4mm. The leads are spaced at a pitch of 0.4mm and are finished with lead-free NiPdAu. They are designed for easy PCB layout by allowing the traces to run straight through the device. The combination of small size, low capacitance, and high level of ESD protection makes them a flexible solution for applications such as mini HDMI, MDDI, USB, and eSATA interfaces.
