Description Features

Revision 2/24/2010
The μClamp® TVS diodes 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 μClamp®3301P is constructed using Semtech’s
proprietary EPD process technology. The EPD process
provides low standoff voltages with significant reduc-
tions in leakage currents and capacitance over silicon-
avalanche diode processes. They feature a true
operating voltage of 3.3 volts for superior protection
when compared to traditional pn junction devices.
The μClamp3301P is in an 2-pin SLP1006P2 package.
It measures 1.0 x 0.6 x 0.5mm. The leads are spaced
at a pitch of 0.65mm and are finished with lead-free
NiPdAu. Each device will protect one line operating at
3.3 volts. It gives the designer the flexibility to protect
single lines in applications where arrays are not practi-
cal. They may be used to meet the ESD immunity
requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, Level 4 (±15kV air,
±8kV contact discharge). The combination of small
size and high ESD surge capability makes them ideal
for use in portable applications such as cellular
phones, digital cameras, and MP3 players.

uClamp3301P
Device Connection Options
The μClamp3301P is designed to protect one data or
I/O line operating at 3.3 volts. 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. These devices should not be connected to
DC supply rails as they can latch up as described
below.
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 snap-
back votlage (VSB) as the device can latch on as
described below.
EPD TVS Characteristics
The μClamp3301P 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 ava-
lanche technology impractical for most applications.
However, by utilizing the EPD technology, the
μClamp3301P can effectively operate at 3.3V while
maintaining excellent electrical characteristics.
The EPD TVS employs a complex nppn structure in
contrast to the pn structure normally found in tradi-
tional 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 characteris-
tic aids in lowering the clamping voltage of the device,
but must be considered in applications where DC
voltages are present.
When the TVS is conducting current, it will exhibit a
slight “snap-back” or negative resistance characteris-

tics due to its structures. This point is defined on the
curve by the snap-back voltage (VSB) and snap-back
current (ISB). To return to a non-conducting state, the
current through the device must fall below the ISB
(approximately <50mA) and the voltage must fall below
the VSB (normally 2.8 volts for a 3.3V device). If a 3.3V
TVS is connected to 3.3V DC source, it will never fall
below the snap-back voltage of 2.8V and will therefore
stay in a conducting state.
