RClamp®3354S
Low Voltage RClamp®
Surge Protection for GbE Interfaces
PROTECTION PRODUCTS - RailClamp®
Description
Features
RailClamp® TVS diodes are specifically designed to
protect sensitive components which are connected to
high-speed data and transmission lines from
u Transient protection for high-speed data lines to
IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) 30kV (air), 30kV (contact)
IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) 40A (5/50ns)
IEC 61000-4-5 (Lightning) 25A (8/20µs)
u Array of surge rated diodes with internal TVS Diode
u Protects up to four I/O lines
u Low capacitance (<5pF) for high-speed interfaces
u Low Dynamic Resistance: 0.25 Ohms
u Low operating voltage: 3.3V
overvoltage caused by ESD (electrostatic discharge),
CDE (cable discharge events), and EFT (electrical fast
transients).
The RClamp®3354S incorporates surge rated, low
capacitance steering diodes and a TVS diode in a single
package. Each device will protect up to four high-speed
lines. The RClamp3354S can withstand a high level of
surge current (25A, 8/20us) while maintaining a low
loading capacitance of less than 5pF. The high surge
capability means it can be used in high threat environ-
ments in applications such as Gigabit Ethernet, telecom-
munication lines, and LVDS interfaces.
u Solid-state silicon-avalanche technology
Mechanical Characteristics
u JEDEC SOT-23 5L package
The RClamp3354S is constructed using Semtech’s pro-
prietary EPD process technology. The EPD process pro-
vides low stand-off voltages with significant reductions in
leakage current and capacitance over silicon-avalanche
diode processes. It features a low operating voltage of
3.3 volts for superior protection.
u Pb-Free, Halogen Free, RoHS/WEEE Compliant
u Molding compound flammability rating: UL 94V-0
u Marking : Marking code + date code
u Packaging : Tape and Reel
Applications
u 10/100/1000 Ethernet
u Central Office Equipment
u LVDS Interfaces
The RClamp3354S is in a 5-lead SOT-23 package. The
leads are finished with lead-free matte tin.
u MagJacks / Integrated Magnetics
u Notebooks / Desktops / Servers
