Littelfuse announced the new SP33R6, a series of four-channel, low capacitance (0.2pF) TVS diode arrays. These robust diodes provide extremely low breakdown/turn-on voltages, making them ideal protectors of high-speed data lines with low voltage (-0.3 to +0.3V). Without performance degradation, they can safely absorb repetitive ESD strikes above the maximum level specified in IEC 61000-4-2 international standard (Level 4, ±8kV contact discharge).

 

The SPxxR6 TVS Diode Arrays are ideal for use in a wide range of data communications interfaces for consumer electronics, including:

 

USB 3.2 and 4.0,

Thunderbolt 3.0 and 4.0,

PCI Express 6.0.

 

The chipsets from USB 4.0 suppliers are known to be particularly susceptible to damage from voltages over 3.3V and the SP33R6 / SP00R6 TVS diode array series provides an exceptional solution for the protection of high-speed interfaces like USB 4.0 against repeated ESD strikes.

Using a multiline package footprint (SP33R6) or 0201-package (SP00R6) likely already on the circuit board, design engineers can expect ten times lower pass-through voltage when compared with existing solutions currently on the market.
