7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The TPD4E002 is a four-channel TVS protection diode array. The TPD4E002 is rated to dissipate contact ESD

strikes of ±15 kV, beyond Level 4 as specified in the IEC 61000-4-2 international standard. This device has an

11-pF I/O capacitance per channel, making it ideal for use in data I/O interfaces of up to 100 MHz.

7.3 Feature Description

The TPD4E002 is a TVS that provides ESD protection for up to four channels, withstanding up to ±15-kV contact

ESD per IEC 61000-4-2 and 2.5-A peak pulse current per IEC 61000-4-5. The monolithic technology yields

exceptionally small variations in capacitance between any I/O pin of the TPD4E002. The small footprint is ideal

for applications where space-saving designs are important.

7.4 Device Functional Modes

The TPD4E002 device is a passive integrated circuit that triggers when voltages are above VBR or below the

diodes VF of approximately –0.5 V. During ESD events, voltages as high as ±15-kV contact ESD can be directed

to ground through the internal diodes. Once the voltages on the protected line fall below the trigger levels of

TPD4E002 (usually within tens of nano seconds) the device reverts to its high-impedance state.
