TVS Diode Array – SPA™ Family Port Selection Guide Introduction This guide is meant to provide examples the use of TVS Diode Arrays for the protection of a large number of different ports. The ports represent low-speed, high-speed and ports where the electrical threat is not just ESD, but also lightning surge. It should be kept in mind that there will typically be multiple solutions available for each port and that they are equally valid. A typical reason to use a different part than the one identified in the slide would be form factor (SOT23 vs. SC70 vs. μDFN). How to use the TVS Diode Array Port Selection Guide Change to “presentation mode” to activate links The selection guide is driven from the next slide The basic format is to align the product line and protected ports, by grouping them into three categories To see examples of TVS Diode Arrays protecting the specific ports, simply click on the links on the next page Click here to go to the Selection Guide

3 TVS Diode Array – SPA™ Family Port Selection Guide Introduction
This guide is meant to provide examples of the application of TVS Diode Arrays in the protection of a wide range of port types. The circuits represent low-speed, high-speed and ports where the electrical threat is not just ESD, but also lightning surge (Broadband applications). It should be kept in mind that there will typically be multiple, equally-valid solutions available for each port. A typical reason to use a part other than the one identified in the slide could be form factor (SOT23 vs. SC70 vs. μDFN). Another example is that a single USB 2.0 port can use the SP xTG, but it would be a logical choice to use the SP xTG for a USB 2.0 connector that includes two USB 2.0 ports (rather than two of the SP xTG). The selection guide can be used in two modes: Port Selection – in this mode, you need to know which port needs protection. For example, if you are working on a set top box design, and need to find protection solutions for high-speed ports, you can search under HDMI, USB 2.0, eSATA and/or Ethernet. Part Number Index – in this mode, you need to know a specific TVS Diode Array part number. For example, if you’ve just learned about the SP UTG through a promotion or training, you can search under that part number.
