Description
The CM1218−C4 device features transient voltage suppressor arrays that provide a very high level of protection for sensitive electronic components which may be subjected to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
All pins of the CM1218−C4 are rated to withstand ±15 kV ESD pulses using the IEC 61000−4−2 contact discharge method. Using the MIL−STD−883D (Method 3015) specification for Human Body Model (HBM) ESD, all pins are protected from contact discharges of greater than ±30 kV.
The CM1218−C4 is supplied in an SOT−553, RoHS−compliant, lead−free finished package.
