SMS3.3 3.3 Volt TVS Array For ESD and Latch-Up Protection 

## PROTECTION PRODUCTS 

## Description 

The SMS series of TVS arrays are designed to protect sensitive electronics from damage or latch-up due to ESD, lightning, and other voltage-induced transient events. Each device will protect up to four lines operating at 3.3 volts. 

## Features 

- Transient protection for data lines to IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) ±15kV (air), ±8kV (contact) IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) 40A (5/50ns) IEC 61000-4-5 (Lightning) 12A (8/20µs) 

- Protects four I/O lines 

- Working voltage: 3.3V 

The SMS3.3 is a solid-state device designed specifically for transient suppression. It is constructed using Semtech’s proprietary EPD process technology. The EPD process provides low standoff voltages with significant reductions in leakage currents and capacitance over traditional pn junction processes. They offer desirable characteristics for board level protection including fast response time, low clamping voltage and no device degradation. 

The SMS3.3 may be used to meet the immunity requirements of IEC 61000-4-2, level 4 (±15kV air, ±8kV contact discharge).  The low cost SOT23-6L package makes them ideal for use in portable electronics such as cell phones, PDA’s, and notebook computers. 

- Low leakage current (<1µA) 

- Low clamping voltage 

- Low capacitance (35pF typical) 

- Solid-state EPD TVS technology 

## Mechanical Characteristics 

- EIAJ SOT23-6L package 

- Molding compound flammability rating: UL 94V-0 

- Marking : Marking Code 

- Packaging : Tape and Reel per EIA 481 

## Applications 

- Cell phone Handsets and Accessories 

- Microprocessor Based Equipment 

- Personal Digital Assistants (PDA’s) and Pagers 

- Desktops PC and  Servers 

- Notebook, Laptop, and Palmtop Computers 

- Portable Instrumentation 

- Peripherals

SMS3.3 

## **PROTECTION PRODUCTS** 

## Applications Information 

## Device Connection for Protection of Four Data Lines 

The SMS3.3 is designed to protect up to four unidirectional data lines.  The device is connected as follows: 

1. Unidirectional protection of four I/O lines is achieved by connecting pins 1, 3, 4 and 6 to the data lines.  Pin 2 and 5 are connected to ground. The ground connections should be made directly to the ground plane for best results.  The path length is kept as short as possible to reduce the effects of parasitic inductance in the board traces. 

## Circuit Board Layout Recommendations for Suppression of ESD 

Good circuit board layout is critical for the suppression of ESD induced transients.  The following guidelines are recommended: 

- Place the TVS near the input terminals or connectors to restrict transient coupling. 

- Minimize the path length between the TVS and the protected line. 

- Minimize all conductive loops including power and ground loops. 

- The ESD transient return path to ground should be kept as short as possible. 

- Never run critical signals near board edges. 

- Use ground planes whenever possible.

## Protection of Four Unidirectional Lines 

**==> picture [81 x 116] intentionally omitted <==**

**==> picture [66 x 112] intentionally omitted <==**

Matte tin has become the industry standard lead-free replacement for SnPb lead finishes.  A matte tin finish is composed of 100% tin solder with large grains. Since the solder volume on the leads is small compared to the solder paste volume that is placed on the land pattern of the PCB, the reflow profile will be determined by the requirements of the solder paste. Therefore, these devices are compatible with both lead-free and SnPb assembly techniques.  In addition, unlike other lead-free compositions, matte tin does not have any added alloys that can cause degradation of the solder joint.
