ON Semiconductor's New ESD Suppression Devices in Low-Profile Package Exceed Portable Industry's Toughest ESD Business Wire via Yahoo! Finance Wed, 03 Aug 2005 12:25 PM PDT A leading global supplier of discrete devices, ON Semiconductor today introduced the uESD dual series of high-performance, micro-packaged electro static discharge protection diodes.

Philips Electronics
has released a new series of Electro Static Discharge (ESD) protection
diodes designed to protect consumer and communications applications from
ESD and other voltage induced transient pulses.
They have very low diode capacitance, very low leakage current and reverse
stand voltages of 3.3V and 5.0V, all in extremely small packages. The new
ESD protection diodes provide designers of space-constrained applications
an excellent option for protection of electrical equipment both at the
system and component level.
Semiconductors are becoming smaller, denser and more complex, particularly
in space-critical applications such as portable devices, which increases
the semiconductors' susceptibility to ESD pulses.
Several of Philips’ new diodes can be integrated into a device, making
them well suited to these portable devices.
Philips' ESD protection diodes are designed to protect up to seven
transmission or data lines from the damage caused by ESD pulses.
In high-speed data rate or high frequency applications too much protection
device parasitic capacitance causes unintentional signal attenuation.
Offering a low device capacitance down to 16 pF, Philips' new devices are
ideal for ESD protection in these applications. The devices are also ideal
for applications such as battery driven devices where power consumption is
a key concern. With a low leakage current down to 50nA, the devices help
lower overall power consumption in these applications.
Two new parts in the series, the PESD3V3L2UM and PESD5V0L2UM, are the
first ESD protection devices on the market in the new leadless ultra small
SOT883 surface mount package. The device footprint is 1.0mm x 0.6mm x
0.5mm, providing customers with printed circuit board savings of 90%
compared to the SOT23 package traditionally used for ESD protection
diodes. The new series of diodes can withstand ESD pulses up to 20kV and
fulfills industry standard IEC 61000-4-2 (level 4), thus providing
customers superior ESD
protection performance.
