Product Description
The CM1218 family of devices 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).

FEATUREs
• Low I/O capacitance at 7pF typical
• In-system ESD protection to ±15kV contact discharge, per the IEC 61000-4-2 international standard
• Two, three, four or five channels of ESD protection
• Compact SMT package saves board space and facilitates layout in space-critical applications
• Each I/O pin can withstand over 1000 ESD strikes
• Lead-free versions available

APPLICATIONs
• High-speed consumer electronic ports
• ESD protection of PC ports, including USB ports, serial ports, parallel ports, IEEE1394 ports, docking ports, proprietary ports, etc.
• Protection of interface ports or IC pins which are exposed to high ESD levels
