Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection

The bus pins of the THVD1428 transceiver includes on-chip ESD protection against ±16-kV HBM and ±4-kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) ESD test is far more severe than the HBM ESD test. The 50% higher charge capacitance, C(S), and 78% lower discharge resistance, R(D), of the IEC model produce significantly higher discharge currents than the HBM model. As stated in the IEC 61000-4-2 standard, contact discharge is the preferred transient protection test method.

The on-chip implementation of IEC ESD protection significantly increases the robustness of equipment. Common discharge events occur because of human contact with connectors and cables.
