Interfaces that connect to a cable such as HDMI generally require more ESD protection than can be built into the processor’s outputs. Therefore this HDMI interface requires the use of an ESD protection chip to provide adequate ESD.
When selecting an ESD protection chip, choose the lowest capacitance ESD protection available to minimize signal degradation. In no case should be ESD protection circuit capacitance be more than 5pF.
TI manufactures these devices that provide ESD protection for HDMI signals such as the TPDxE05U06. For more information see the www.ti.com website.
