Bidirectional symmetrical single-line ESD protection diode

CAMBRIDGE, UK — Vishay's compact VBUS05L1-DD1-G-08 provides a very low capacitance of 0.3pF for the protection of antennas, USB 3.0, and HDMI ports from transient voltage signals in portable electronics. 

The bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) single-line ESD protection diode comes in a 0.6x1.0mm footprint with a very low package height of less than 0.4 mm.

The VBUS05L1-DD1-G-08 minimizes the board space required for active ESD protection in devices such as portable gaming systems, digital cameras, MP3 players, and mobile phones.

At the working voltage of 5.5V, the diode offers a high isolation to ground characterized by a low leakage current below 0.1microA. Any transient voltage signal exceeding the reverse breakthrough voltage of typical 8.4 V at 1 mA will be clamped or grounded.

The device features a maximum clamping voltage of 14 V at 1A. Thanks to its short leads and small package size, the diode's line inductance is very low, allowing fast transients such as an ESD strike to be clamped with minimal over- or undershoots.

The VBUS05L1-DD1-G-08 provides transient protection for one data line as per IEC 61000 4 2 at ± 9 kV (air and contact discharge). The device is lead-free and complies with RoHS 2002/95/EC and WEEE 2002/96/EC.
