DescriptionThe "FemtoFarad" TVSF1206 family is specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits from the threat of electrostatic discharge (ESD)."FemtoFarad" products react almost instantly to the transient voltage and effectively clamp it below 60 V,meaning less voltage stress during the clamp period and greater IC protection.The design of "FemtoFarad" products inherently produces a low capacitance part. In the off-state "FemtoFarad"TVSF1206 is virtually invisible to the circuit. Installed from signal line to ground, the "FemtoFarad" device exhibits a high impedance and low capacitance that makes it transparent to high-speed
digital circuits. Signals are not distorted or disrupted.With "FemtoFarad" devices,waveform definition stays true and highspeed signals do not suffer.
"FemtoFarad" TVSF1206 products utilize a unique polymer-based material. The nature of the material creates a bi-directional part,which means that only one device is required to provide complete ESD protection regardless of the surge polarity. The combination of this material with proven thick film on ceramic technology produces a reliable, surface mount product that will help protect mobile communications, computers, data processing, test equipment, and many other electronic applications from EDS.
