What are the different types of ESD protection devices?

An ESD protection device protects a circuit from an Electrostatic discharge (ESD), in order to prevent a malfunction or breakdown of an electronic device. Murata has an extensive lineup of ESD protection devices including specialized devices for high-speed communication, ultra-miniature devices, and integrated noise filters.

Where can I find Murata ESD protection devices?

Near an antenna. Murata’s ESD protection devices protect filters and ICs used in the vicinity of an antenna from destruction and defects due to ESD. They also eliminate worries concerning harmonic noise in a TVS.

What are the different types of protection devices?

High-current crowbar protection for lightning surges (with TVS crowbar diodes and ICs, or Trisils™) High-efficiency clamping protection for power surges and ESD protection (with TVS clamping diodes and arrays, or Transils™) Additional application-specific protection including serial current limiters, thermal shutdown, CMOS and SPI interfaces.

Are there any online tools for ESD design?

ST is now offering online ESD design tools with the TVS smart selector. Whitepaper | Design challenges behind EV traction inverters – Download this free whitepaper dedicated to the role and design challenges engineers face when developing and designing traction inverters for electric vehicles.

Why do we need system level protection for ESD?

System-level protection for electrostatic discharge (ESD) is crucial in today’s world, not only in the industrial space but also in the consumer and automotive space. It only takes one ESD strike to permanently damage a product, which makes ESD protection a critical component in a system design.

How does pesd1lin protect against the effects of ESD?

The PESD1LIN protects one automotive Local Interconnect Network (LIN) bus line from the damage caused by ESD and other transients. Its asymmetrical internal diode configuration ensures optimized electromagnetic immunity for the protected LIN ECU. Selection guide
