This application note describes the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 3.0 or the SuperSpeed USB ports and discusses Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection on USB 3.0. This document highlights TE Circuit ...

A very cost-effective solution for ESD protection in USB 2.0/3.0 applications is to combine an internal ESD protection structure (integrated in the USB transceiver) with a robust, high-current ...

The phrase “raise the bar” has its origin in high jumping and pole vaulting, and is now a metaphorical cliché in many fields. In sports, of course, it has both a metaphorical and a literal meaning.

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. The USB Type-C connector specification and the related USB 3.1 and USB Power Delivery (USB PD) specifications promise ...

These devices provide optimised protection for AC-coupled radio-frequency (RF) transmission lines against electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, surge currents and short circuit conditions. These ...

•ESD protectors with low dynamic resistance won’t necessarily protect circuits. •Most damage is caused within the first nanosecond of an ESD event. •The ESD protector should set as close as possible ...
