Overview: CLAMP2504N Low Capacitance Array for Surge & ESD Protection CLAMP2504N
Low Capacitance Array for Surge & ESD Protection
The CLAMP2504N has a low typical capacitance of 2.4pF and operates with virtually no insertion loss to 1GHz. This makes the device ideal for protection of high-speed data lines such as Firewire, DVI, and gigabit Ethernet interfaces.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. It may be used to meet the ESD immunity requirements of IEC61000-4-2, Level 4 (±15kV air, ±8kV contact discharge).
It has been specifically designed to protect sensitive ponents which are connected to high-speed data and transmission lines from overvoltage caused by ESD(electrostatic discharge), CDE (Cable Discharge Events),and lightning.
