The DSL04-022SC6 is a high-performance transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode array from STMicroelectronics, designed specifically to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other transient voltage events. This device is optimized for use in protecting DSL lines, Ethernet lines, video lines, and other communication interfaces that are susceptible to damage from overvoltage events.

Key Features

• Low Capacitance: The DSL04-022SC6 boasts ultra-low capacitance, typically 3 pF, making it suitable for high-speed data lines without significant signal attenuation.
• High Surge Capability: With a surge capability of up to 30 A (8/20 µs), this device ensures robust protection against high-energy transients.
• Low Leakage Current: It maintains a low leakage current of less than 0.5 µA at the working voltage, contributing to energy efficiency in the system it protects.
• ESD Protection: Offers exceptional ESD protection exceeding IEC 61000-4-2 level 4, withstanding ESD strikes up to 15 kV (air discharge) and 8 kV (contact discharge).
• SOT-23-6L Package: Housed in a small SOT-23-6L package, this device is ideal for space-constrained applications.
