USB6B1
Data line protection
Applications
Where transient overvoltage protection in
sensitive equipment is required, such as:
Universal Serial Bus ports
RS-423 interfaces
RS-485 interfaces
ISDN equipment
T1/E1 line cards
HDSL / ASDL interfaces
Features
Full diode bridge with integrated clamping
protection
Breakdown voltage: V
BR
= 6 V min.
Peak pulse power dissipation: P
PP
= 500 W
(8/20 µs)
Very low capacitance, compatible with high
debit data or signal rates.
Description
In order to prevent fast transients from leading to
severe damages in a high speed data system, a
specific protection has been developed by
STMicroelectronics.
The USB6B1 protects the two input lines against
overvoltage. Besides, this device also keeps the
power rails in a safe limit thanks to the integrated
Transil diode.
Benefits
Provides protection for each line and between
the supply voltage and GND: 25 A, 8/20 µs.
High ESD protection level: up to level 3 per MIL
STD 883C-Method 3015-6
Separated inputs and outputs (so-called 4-point
structure) to improve ESD susceptibility.
Comprehensive package pin-out for immediate
implementation.
