MAD Series

ultRA low cAPAcitAnce Multi-line SteeRing DioDe ARRAy

DeScRiPtion

The MAD Series are a low distortion steering diodes. These devices are intended for use in high frequency analog or

digital data I/O ports for protection against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) and Electrical Fast Transients (EFT). The MAD

Series is connected between rail-to-rail voltage bus or rail-to-ground for clamping and diverting overvoltage transients

for the protection of sensitive network interface circuits.

This series provides low capacitance, which insures signal integrity up to 900MHz, while complete isolation between

adjacent diodes keeps cross-talk to a minimum. The MAD Series is available in a 14 pin DIP and meets the IEC 61000-

4-2, IEC 61000-4-4 and IEC 61000-4-5 requirements.
