ProTek's low capacitance Steering Diode Arrays provide high-speed data line and I/O port protection from transients caused by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), Electrical Fast Transients (EFT), Tertiary Lightning and other induced voltages.  Steering diodes divert the transient to the power-bus or ground and away from sensitive IC components.

These devices have been tested up to 25,000 volts of contact ESD conditions.  In addition, Steering Diodes are designed to meet ESD immunity requirement IEC 61000-4-2 (Air - 15kV, Contact - 8kV) and EFT immunity requirement IEC 61000-4-4 (40A, 5/50ns).

Typical Leakage Current for these devices is 0.1µA, Capacitance 1-5pF and Forward Peak Pulse Current 12-40A.  Package type also varies from SOT-23-6 to SOIC-16.
