As high-speed transceiver ICs implemented on ever-shrinking silicon geometries become increasingly sensitive to transient voltage spikes, the need for high performance protection circuitry is becoming even more critical. These ICs require ultra-low clamping voltage protection while also presenting a minimal loading capacitance. Based on Semtech’s FemtoClamp™ technology, the RClamp3371ZC utilizes an advanced ultra-low capacitance TVS silicon process for achieving the highest performance ESD protection for high speed data communication channels. RClamp3371ZC is housed in a very small 0201 package giving board designers key space savings and a high degree of layout flexibility.
“USB Type-C interfaces are rapidly becoming the data transfer standard for communications and handheld devices,” said Tee Lim, Product Marketing Director for Semtech’s
