UESD6V8V4X
Quad Channel Low Capacitance ESD Protection Array
UESD6V8V4A
UESD6V8V4B
UESD6V8V4C
General Description
UESD6V8V4X are surge rated diode arrays designed to protect high speed data interfaces. This series
has been specifically designed to protect sensitive components which are connected to data and
transmission lines from over-voltage caused by ESD (electrostatic discharge).
The unique design incorporates surge rated, low capacitance steering diodes and a TVS diode in a
single package. During transient conditions, the steering diodes direct the transient to either the
positive side of the power supply line or to ground. The internal TVS diode prevents over-voltage on
the power line, protecting any downstream components.
The low capacitance array configuration allows the user to protect four high-speed data or
transmission lines. The low inductance construction minimizes voltage overshoot during high current
surges. This device is optimized for ESD protection of portable electronics. They may be used to meet
the ESD immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4 (± 15kV air, ± 8kV contact discharge).

Applications Information
Device Connection Options for Protection of Four High-Speed Data Lines
This device is designed to protect data lines by clamping them to a fixed reference. When the voltage
on the protected line exceeds the reference voltage the steering diodes are forward biased, conducting
the transient current away from the sensitive circuitry. Data lines are connected at pins 1, 3, 4 and 6.
Pin 2 should be connected directly to a ground plane. The path length is kept as short as possible to
minimize parasitic inductance. The positive reference is connected at pin 5. The options for
connecting the positive reference are as follows:
1. To protect data lines and the power line, connect pin 5 directly to the positive supply rail (VCC). In
this configuration the data lines are referenced to the supply voltage. The internal TVS diode prevents
over-voltage on the supply rail.
2. In applications where the supply rail does not exit the system, the internal TVS may be used as the
reference. In this case, pin 5 is not connected. The steering diodes will begin to conduct when the
voltage on the protected line exceeds the working voltage of the TVS (plus one diode drop).
3. In applications where complete supply isolation is desired, the internal TVS is again used as the
reference and
VCC is connected to one of the I/O inputs. An example of this configuration is the protection of a
SIM port. The
Clock, Reset, I/O, and VCC lines are connected at pins 1, 3, 4, and 6. Pin 2 is connected to ground
and pin 5 is not connected.
Matte Tin Lead Finish
Matte tin has become the industry standard lead-free replacement for SnPb lead finishes. A matte tin
finish is composed of 100% tin solder with large grains. Since the solder volume on the leads is small
compared to the solder paste volume that is placed on the land pattern of the PCB, the reflow profile
will be determined by the requirements of the solder paste. Therefore, these devices are compatible
with both lead-free and SnPb assembly techniques. In addition, unlike other lead-free compositions,
matte tin does not have any added alloys that can cause degradation of the solder joint.
