Quick Circuit Tips #1 - ESD Protection

Based on waffle layout style, two modified layout styles have been proposed, which are called as multi-waffle and multi-waffle-hollow layout styles.

A TVS is an array of diodes (see Figure 2 for a typical example) arranged to present a very high impedance to the voltages normally present in the circuit, but ...

Here are some ESD protection circuit design options you can use in your next PCB and some PCB layout best practices for your new product.

TVS diodes are two-terminal devices that have simple placement guidelines: one terminal (the cathode) is placed on a conductor that needs ESD protection, and ...

1. Place ESD protection diodes close to the ESD entry point. 2. Minimize trace inductance in series with ESD protection diodes including GND after the board ...

Place diode close to the potential ESD entry points, such as connectors, buttons, or exposed pads, is essential. This ensures the static energy ...

The parasitic inductance LPARASITIC due to the layout is always present between the protection diode and the ground.

A TVS is an array of diodes (see Figure 1-2 for a typical example) arranged to present a very high impedance to the voltages normally present in the circuit, ...

A bidirectional ESD diode has both a negative and a positive working voltage range, generally from –3.6 V to. 3.6 V or –5.5 V to 5.5 V. This allows for the ...
