CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS

Circuit board layout is critical for Electromagnetic Compatibility

(EMC) protection. The following guidelines are recommended:

✔

The protection device should be placed near the input

terminals or connectors, the device will divert the transient

current immediately before it can be coupled into the nearby

traces.

✔

The path length between the TVS device and the protected

line should be minimized.

✔

All conductive loops including power and ground loops

should be minimized.

✔

The transient current return path to ground should be kept

as short as possible to reduce parasitic inductance.

✔

Ground planes should be used whenever possible. For

multilayer PCBs, use ground vias.

The USB04 Series are TVS arrays designed to protect I/O or

data lines from the damaging effects of ESD and EFT. This

product series provides both unidirectional and bidirectional

protection, with a surge capability of 500 Watts P

an 8/20µs waveform and ESD protection > 40kV.

UNIDIRECTIONAL

COMMON-MODE CONFIGURATION (Figure 1)

The two USB04 Series devices provide protection in a common-

mode configuration as depicted in Figure 1.

Circuit connectivity is as follows:

✔

TVS Device 1: Line 1(D+) is connected to Pins 2 & 3.

✔

TVS Device 2: Line 2(D-) is connected to Pins 2 & 3.

✔

Both TVS Devices: Pins 1 & 4 connected to ground.

BIDIRECTIONAL

DIFFERENTIAL-MODE CONFIGURATION (Figure 2)

The USB04xxC Series provides protection in a differential-mode

configuration as depicted in Figure 2.

Circuit connectivity is as follows:
