CM1230 is the newest solution in the family of PicoGuard ultra low capacitance diode arrays for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection of high-speed serial interfaces. With a space efficient CSP and an ultra low input capacitance of 0.8 pF per channel, is said to be the industry’s smallest form factor low capacitance ESD diode solution. Data interfaces such as high-speed serial data interfaces for mobile handset displays as well as USB 2.0 and Serial ATA interfaces found in many digital consumer and computing applications require robust ESD protection for high value SOCs with low levels of capacitance and inductance to preserve signal integrity. Providing protection against ESD strikes up to ±8kV contact and ±15kV air discharge, the CM1230 meets the performance requirements of these applications.
