AOZ8001
Ultra-Low Capacitance TVS Diode Array
General Description
The AOZ8001 is a transient voltage suppressor array
designed to protect high speed data lines from ESD and
lightning.
This device incorporates four surge rated, low capacitance
steering diodes and a TVS in a single package. During
transient conditions, the steering diodes direct the
transient to either the positive side of the power supply
line or to ground. They may be used to meet the ESD
immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4.
The TVS diodes provide effective suppression of ESD
voltages: ±15kV (air discharge) and ±8kV (contact
discharge).
The AOZ8001 comes in RoHS compliant, SOT-143 and
SC-89 package and is rated over a -40°C to +85°C
ambient temperature range. They are compatible with
both lead free and SnPb assembly techniques.
The very small 1.7 x 1.7 x 0.6mm SC-89 package makes
it ideal for applications where PCB space is a premium.
The SC-89 has a flow through package design for an
optimal and user friendly PCB layout design. The small
size, low capacitance and high ESD protection makes
it ideal for protecting high speed video and data
communication interfaces.

Protected IC
Flow Through Layout
Application Information
The AOZ8001 TVS is design to protect two data lines
from fast damaging transient over-voltage by clamping it
to a reference. When the transient on a protected data
line exceed the reference voltage the steering diode is
forward bias thus, conducting the harmful ESD transient
away from the sensitive circuitry under protection.
PCB Layout Guidelines
Printed circuit board layout is the key to achieving the
highest level of surge immunity on power and data lines.
The location of the protection devices on the PCB is the
simplest and most important design rule to follow. The
AOZ8001 devices should be located as close as possible
to the noise source. The placement of the AOZ8001
devices should be used on all data and power lines that
enter or exit the PCB at the I/O connector. In most
systems, surge pulses occur on data and power lines that
enter the PCB through the I/O connector. Placing the
AOZ8001 devices as close as possible to the noise
source ensures that a surge voltage will be clamped
before the pulse can be coupled into adjacent PCB
traces. In addition, the PCB should use the shortest
possible traces. A short trace length equates to low
impedance, which ensures that the surge energy will be
dissipated by the AOZ8001 device. Long signal traces
will act as antennas to receive energy from fields that are
produced by the ESD pulse. By keeping line lengths as
short as possible, the efficiency of the line to act as an
antenna for ESD related fields is reduced. Minimize inter-
connecting line lengths by placing devices with the most
interconnect as close together as possible. The protec-
tion circuits should shunt the surge voltage to either the
reference or chassis ground. Shunting the surge voltage
directly to the IC’s signal ground can cause ground
bounce. The clamping performance of TVS diodes on a
single ground PCB can be improved by minimizing the
impedance with relatively short and wide ground traces.
The PCB layout and IC package parasitic inductances
can cause significant overshoot to the TVS’s clamping
voltage. The inductance of the PCB can be reduced by
using short trace lengths and multiple layers with
separate ground and power planes. One effective
method to minimize loop problems is to incorporate a
ground plane in the PCB design. The AOZ8001 ultra-low
capacitance TVS is designed to protect four high speed
data transmission lines from transient over-voltages by
clamping them to a fixed reference. The low inductance
and construction minimizes voltage overshoot during
high current surges. When the voltage on the protected
line exceeds the reference voltage the internal steering
diodes are forward biased, conducting the transient
current away from the sensitive circuitry.
Good circuit board layout is critical for the suppression
of ESD induced transients. The following guidelines are
recommended:
1. Place the TVS near the IO terminals or connectors to
restrict transient coupling.
2. Fill unused portions of the PCB with ground plane.
3. Minimize the path length between the TVS and the
protected line.
4. Minimize all conductive loops including power and
ground loops.
5. The ESD transient return path to ground should be
kept as short as possible.
6. Never run critical signals near board edges.
7. Use ground planes whenever possible.
8. Avoid running critical signal traces (clocks, resets,
etc.) near PCB edges.
9. Separate chassis ground traces from components
and signal traces by at least 4mm.
10. Keep the chassis ground trace length-to-width ratio
<5:1 to minimize inductance.
11. Protect all external connections with TVS diodes.
