ESDAVLC6V1-1BM2
The lowest line capacitance bi-directional transient voltage suppressor diode available

ESDAVLC6V1-1BM2 Product Page
The introduction of high bandwidth functions in portable applications has drastically increased the need for very low capacitance ESD protection devices. As an example, new cellular phones are now embedding such features as high resolution displays, high sensitivity keypads and USB and video interfaces. Such interfaces require a high level of ESD protection together with a low impact on signal integrity. In fact very low capacitance protection diodes are required.

Lowest On The Market


To support this high demand on very low capacitance ESD protection, ST has recently introduced the ESDAVLC6V1-1BM2, a single Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode with only 7 pF line capacitance. This is the lowest line capacitance ESD protection diode available on the market today.
The ESDAVLC6V1-1BM2 is available in a bi-directional configuration with a working voltage of 5 V and a minimum breakdown voltage of 6.1 V. With a capacitance of 7 pF, this device is appropriate for transient protection of high frequency data lines and signal interfaces. Designed to protect against the transient environments of IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD), all devices are tested up to 15 kV ESD contact and air discharge.

Key Features


VBR min = 6.1 V
±15 kV ESD protection (IEC 61000-4-2)
Very low capacitance: 7 pF max @ 0 V
Very low leakage current (100 nA max @ 3 V)
Standard SOD882 package

ESDAVLC6V1-1BM2
Protection of sensitive ICs

Key Benefits


High ESD protection (±15 kV in IEC61000-4-2)
Supports high bandwidth applications
Ultra small package - only 0.6 mm2

Standard SOD882 Package


In addition to being cost-effective, using the surface mount SOD882 package for transient protection reduces the space required for ESD protection components.
Packaged in the standard SOD882 plastic case, this device can substitute similar 0402 outline configurations.
The ESDAVLC6V1-1BM2 should be placed as close as possible to a connector or a sensitive IC component.
