UCLAMP3301P

Low Voltage μClampTM www.DataSheet4U.com for ESD and CDE Protection PROTECTION PRODUCTS - MicroClampTM Description The μClamp series of Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are designed to replace multilayer varistors (MLVs) in portable applications such as cell phones, notebook computers, and PDAs. They offer superior electrical characteristics such as lower clamping voltage and no device degradation when compared to MLVs. They are designed to protect sensitive semiconductor components from damage or upset due to electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning, electrical fast transients (EFT), and cable discharge events (CDE). The μClampTM3301P is constructed using Semtech’s proprietary EPD process technology. The EPD process provides low standoff voltages with significant reductions in leakage currents and capacitance over siliconavalanche diode processes. They feature a true operating voltage of 3.3 volts for superior protection when compared to traditional pn junction devices. The μClampTM3301P is in an 2-pin, RoHS/WEEE compliant, SLP1006P2 package. It measures 1.0 x 0.6 x 0.5mm. The leads are spaced at a pitch of 0.65mm and are finished with lead-free NiPdAu. Each device will protect one line operating at 3.3 volts. It gives the designer the flexibility to protect single lines in applications where arrays are not practical. They may be used to meet the ESD immunity requirements of IEC 610004-2, Level 4 (±15kV air, ±8kV contact discharge). The combination of small size and high ...
