Nexperia has launched a new series of five high-performance protection 1-V diodes that safeguard AC-coupled radio-frequency (RF) transmission lines against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, surge ...

Abstract: ESD protection design for CMOS RF integrated circuits is proposed in this paper by using the stacked polysilicon diodes as the input ESD protection devices to reduce the total input ...

The electronic content in modern cars has increased tremendously thanks to the demand for in-car entertainment (“infotainment”) systems and features, such as docking for smartphones, USB ports, and ...

A very cost-effective solution for ESD protection in USB 2.0/3.0 applications is to combine an internal ESD protection structure (integrated in the USB transceiver) with a robust, high-current ...

These devices provide optimised protection for AC-coupled radio-frequency (RF) transmission lines against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, surge currents and short circuit conditions. These ...
