TVS Diode

STMicroelectronics is revealing new families of dimension-shrinking devices. The latest advanced devices joining ST’s micro-package families include the world’s smallest single-line TVS, the ESDAVLC6-1BV2, in a 01005 surface-mount package to protect sensitive circuitry against hazardous voltage surges. ST is also introducing the first five members of its new ECMF™ family of common-mode filters embedding ESD protection. These are built using advanced silicon technology and are offered in ultra-thin packages only 0.55mm high.

Moreover, ST’s integrated devices deliver better performance than equivalent discrete devices, as they are produced using semiconductor processes that display greater quality, reliability and process control. Component values have closer tolerances and reduced variation over time compared with conventional devices likes Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs), Low-Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) devices and general-purpose passive components. These advantages allow customers to improve the quality of their products and the perception of their brand.
