Taiwan Semiconductor has introduced a new series of ultra-small ESD protection devices optimized for wearables and other high-density electronic products. The DFN0603-packaged models in the 3.3V and 5.0V TESDx Series exceed the 8kV IEC61000-4-2 20kV contact discharge standard as well as IEC6100-4-5 4A peak pulse current, with margin.

TESDx Series devices use proprietary clamping cells to prevent overvoltage damage from ESD and lightning on control, power and data lines. Additionally, their capacitance allows for full USB 3.0 data rates without compromise.

Applications for the new 3.3V/5.0V ESD protection series include wearable products, portable medical and test and measurement instrumentation and IoT and IIOT devices.

The TESDx Series offers three models:
