## **StaticGuard Automotive Series** 

## **Multilayer Varistors for Automotive Applications** 

## **GENERAL DESCRIPTION** 

The StaticGuard Automotive Series are low capacitance versions of the TransGuard and are designed for general ESD protection of CMOS, Bi-Polar, and SiGe based systems. The low capacitance makes these products suitable for use in automotive CAN and LIN bus communication lines as well as other high speed data transmission applications requiring low capacitance protection. 

## **GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS** 

- Operating Temperature: -55ºC to 125ºC 

- Working Voltage: ≤ 18Vdc 

- Case Size: 0402, 0603, 0805 

## **FEATURES** 

- AEC Q200 Qualified 

- ISO 7637 Pulse 1-3 capability 

- Meet 27.5Vdc Jump Start requirements 

- Multi-strike capability 

- Sub 1nS response to ESD strike 

## **APPLICATIONS** 

- CAN BUS 

- LIN BUS 

- CMOS 

- Module interfaces 

- Switches 

- Sensors 

- Camera modules 

- Datalines 

- Capacitance sensitive applications and more
