3 Description

The ESDS552 is a bidirectional ESD and surge

protection diode for RS-485 and RS-422 interface

protection. The ESDS552 is rated to dissipate ESD

strikes beyond the maximum level specified in the

IEC 61000-4-2 international standard (±30kV Contact,

±30kV Air-gap). The device can clamp 8/20μs surges

with peak pulse currents up to 25A in accordance with

the IEC 61000-4-5 standard.

The low dynamic resistance and low clamping voltage

help protect systems against transient events. This

protection is key because industrial systems require a

high level of robustness and reliability.

The ESDS552 is available in a small leaded SOT-23

(DBZ) package.
