Product Description
The CM1208-07/CM1208-08 is a diode array designed
to provide either 7 or 8 channels of ESD protection for
electronic components or sub-systems. Each channel
consists of a pair of diodes, which steers the ESD cur-
rent pulse to either the positive (V
P
) or negative (V
N
)
supply. The CM1208-07/08 devices will protect against
ESD pulses up to 15kV contact discharge per the Inter-
national Standard IEC61000-4-2.
These devices are particularly well-suited for portable
electronics (e.g.handheld and notebook computers)
because of its small package footprint, high ESD pro-
tection level, and low loading capacitance. They are
also suitable for protecting video output lines and I/O
ports in computers, set top boxes, digital TVs and
peripheral equipment.
The CM1208-07/CM1208-08 is housed in a 10 pin
MSOP package and is available with optional lead-free
finishing.
