Surface Mount Device
Description
The second generation PolySurg™ 0603ESDA2-TR2 ESD Suppressors
protect valuable high-speed data circuits from ESD damage without distorting
data signals as a result of its ultra-low (0.15pF maximum) capacitance.
Features
• Lead free, halogen free materials
• 0603/1608 footprint surface mount device
• Ideal ESD protection for high frequency, low voltage applications
• Exceeds testing requirements of IEC 61000-4-2
• Ultra low capacitance (0.15pF maximum)
• Very low leakage current
• Fast response time
• Bi-directional

Device Marking
PolySurg™ ESD Suppressors are marked on the tape and reel packages, not
individually. Since the product is bi-directional and symmetrical, no orientation
marking is required.
Design Consideration
The location in the circuit for the 0603ESDA2-TR2 Series has to be carefully
determined. For better performance, the device should be placed as close to
the signal input as possible and ahead of any other component. Due to the
high current associated with an ESD event, it is recommended to use a
“0-stub” pad design (pad directly on the signal/data line and second pad
directly on common ground).
Processing Recommendations
The 0603ESDA2-TR2 Series currently has a convex profile on the top surface
of the part. This profile is a result of the construction of the device. They can
be processed using standard pick-and-place equipment. The placement and
processing techniques for these devices are similar to those used for chip
resistors and chip capacitors.
