PROTECTION PRODUCTS - MicroClamp®
Description
The μClamp®2804L TVS diode is specifically designed to meet the performance requirements of Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. They are designed to protect sensitive PHY chips from damage or upset due to electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning, electrical fast transients (EFT), and cable discharge events (CDE).
The μClamp2804L is constructed using Semtech’s low voltage EPD process technology. The EPD process provides low operating voltages with significant reductions in leakage current and capacitance over siliconavalanche diode processes. The device features low variation in capacitance over bias for stable operation on GbE lines.
