Vishay LLP2510 four-line ESD-protection array

Vishay has released a 4-line ESD-protection array in the ultra-compact LLP2510 package. Featuring a compact 2.5 mm x 1.0 mm footprint and ultra-low profile of 0.55 mm, the VBUS54ED-FBL offers low capacitance and leakage current for protecting high-speed data lines against transient voltage signals.

The 4-line device features a ‘flow through’ design that supports the surge resistance requirements for high-speed data lines in applications such as USB 3.0, HDMI, DisplayPort, eSATA, and 1394/Firewire in mobile electronics including notebook computers, mobile phones, MP3 players and portable gaming systems.

The array features a low load capacitance of 0.6 pF and a low maximum leakage current of <0.1 µA at the working voltage of 5.5 V. It offers a breakdown voltage of 7.9 at 1 mA and a maximum clamping voltage of 12.5 at 2 A.

It provides transient protection for data lines as per IEC 61000 4 2 (ESD) at 15 kV (air and contact discharge). The lead-free device is compliant with RoHS 2002/95/EC and WEEE 2002/96/EC and its soldering can be checked by standard visual inspection without X-rays.
