The μClamp® 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 semicon-
ductor components from damage or upset due to
electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning, electrical fast
transients (EFT), and cable discharge events (CDE).
The μClamp®3311T 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 μClamp3311T is in a 2-pin SLP1006P2T package.
It measures 1.0 x 0.6 x 0.4mm. 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. 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.

Applications Information
Device Connection Options
The μClamp3311T is designed to protect one data line
operating up to 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 bidirectional and may be used on lines where
the signal polarity is above and below ground. These
devices are not recommended for use on dc power
supply lines due to their snap-back voltage
characteristic.
Circuit Board Layout Recommendations for Suppres-
sion of ESD.
Good circuit board layout is critical for the suppression
of ESD induced transients. The following guidelines are
recommended:
zPlace the TVS near the input terminals or connec-
tors to restrict transient coupling.
zMinimize the path length between the TVS and the
protected line.
zMinimize all conductive loops including power and
ground loops.
zThe ESD transient return path to ground should be
kept as short as possible.
zNever run critical signals near board edges.
zUse ground planes whenever possible.

Applications Information
Semtech Low Voltage TVS
Conventional TVS diodes are silicon avalanche, p-n
junction devices designed to operate at voltages as
low as 5 volts. However, many of today's
semiconductor devices operate at voltages below 5
volts, and thus require lower voltage protection
devices. Unfortunately, for operating voltages below 5
volts, conventional TVS diode technology becomes
impractical. This is due to the adverse effects of high
leakage current and high capacitance caused by the
high impurity concentrations that are needed to lower
the device voltage below 5 volts. Semtech's
proprietary low voltage EPD device technology was
developed to provide protection for today's circuits
operating at voltages below 5 volts. Unlike
conventional TVS diodes, the EPD device utilizes a
complex four layer (n-p-p-n) structure. The
construction of these devices results in very low
operating voltage without the adverse effects
mentioned above.
Device Operation
Since the EPD TVS devices use a 4-layer structure,
they exhibit a slightly different IV characteristic curve
when compared to conventional devices. Figure 1
compares the IV characteristic curves of a low voltage
TVS with a working voltage (VRWM) of 3.3 volts to a
conventional device with a working voltage of 5 volts.
During normal operation, each device represents a
high-impedance to the circuit up to its working voltage.
During an ESD event, they will begin to conduct and
will enter a low impedance state. For the 3.3 volt
device, this happens when the punch-through voltage
(VPT) is exceeded. Unlike a conventional 5 volt 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. However, the device can latch up if a DC
bias voltage is present. The reason being that in order
for the device to turn off, the voltage must fall below
the snap-back voltage (VSB). This value is normally a
minimum of 2.8 volts. If the device is biased above
the 2.8 volts, it will never fall below the snap-back
voltage and will therefore stay in a conducting state.
