uClamp3301H Low Voltage ClampTM for ESD and CDE Protection PROTECTION PRODUCTS - MicroClampTM Description Features The Clamp series of Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are designed to replace multilayer varistors (MLVs) in portable applications such as cell phones, notebook computers, and PDAs. They offer superior electrical characteristics such as lower clamping voltage and no device degradation when compared to MLVs. They are designed to protect sensitive semiconductor components from damage or upset due to electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning, electrical fast transients (EFT), and cable discharge events (CDE). The ClampTM3301H is constructed using Semtech's proprietary EPD process technology. The EPD process provides low standoff voltages with significant reductions in leakage currents and capacitance over siliconavalanche diode processes. They feature a true operating voltage of 3.3 volts for superior protection when compared to traditional pn junction devices. The Clamp3301H is in a SOD-523 package and will protect one unidirectional line. They give the designer the flexibility to protect one line in applications where arrays are not practical. They may be used to meet the ESD immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4 (15kV air, 8kV contact discharge).

It will present a high impedance to the protected line up to 3.3 volts. It will "turn on" when the line voltage exceeds 3.5 volts. The device is unidirectional and may be used on lines where the signal polarity is above ground. The cathode band should be placed towards the line that is to be protected. Due to the "snap-back" characteristics of the low voltage TVS, it is not recommended that the I/O line be directly connected to a DC source greater than snapback votlage (VSB) as the device can latch on as described below. EPD TVS Characteristics EPD TVS IV Characteristic Curve The Clamp3301H is constructed using Semtech's proprietary EPD technology. The structure of the EPD TVS is vastly different from the traditional pn-junction devices. At voltages below 5V, high leakage current and junction capacitance render conventional avalanche technology impractical for most applications. However, by utilizing the EPD technology, the Clamp3301H can effectively operate at 3.3V while maintaining excellent electrical characteristics. IPP ISB IPT VF IR VRWM VSB VPT VC The EPD TVS employs a complex nppn structure in I contrast to the pn structure normally found in traditional silicon-avalanche TVS diodes. Since the EPD TVS devices use a 4-layer structure, they exhibit a slightly different IV characteristic curve when compared to conventional devices. During normal operation, the device represents a high-impedance to the circuit up to the device working voltage (VRWM). During an ESD event, the device will begin to conduct and will enter a low impedance state when the punch through voltage (VPT) is exceeded. Unlike a conventional device, the low voltage TVS will exhibit a slight negative resistance characteristic as it conducts current. This characteristic aids in lowering the clamping voltage of the device, current (ISB). To return to a non-conducting state, the but must be considered in applications where DC current through the device must fall below the ISB voltages are present. (approximately <50mA) and the voltage must fall below the VSB (normally 2.8 volts for a 3.3V device). If a 3.3V When the TVS is conducting current, it will exhibit a TVS is connected to 3.3V DC source, it will never fall slight "snap-back" or negative resistance characterisbelow the snap-back voltage of 2.8V and will therefore tics due to its structures. This point is defined on the stay in a conducting state. curve by the snap-back voltage (VSB) and snap-back F (c) 2008 Semtech Corp. 4 www.semtech.com uClamp3301H PROTECTION PRODUCTS Outline Drawing - SOD-523 E E1 B DIM A b c D E E1 L L1 aaa D 2X b aaa C A B DIMENSIONS INCHES MILLIMETERS MIN NOM MAX MIN NOM MAX .019 .009 .003 .027 .059 .043 .003 .003 .023 .031 .063 .047 .008 .005 .008 .027 .013 .008 .035 .067 .051 .011 .008 0.50 0.25 0.10 0.70 1.50 1.10 0.10 0.10 0.60 0.70 0.35 0.20 0.80 0.90 1.60 1.70 1.20 1.30 0.20 0.30 0.15 0.20 0.20 A A c SEATING PLANE L C L1 NOTES: 1.
