Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
The TPD3F303 is a diode type TVS + EMI filter which is used to provide a path to ground for dissipating ESD events on signal lines between a SIM card slot and a system. As the current from ESD passes through the TVS, only a small voltage drop is present across the diode. This is the voltage presented to the protected IC across the termination resistors.
For this design example, one TPD3F303 is used to protect a SIM card interface. Table 1 lists the parameters for Figure 6.
PARAMETER | VALUE |
---|---|
Signal Range on Protected Lines | 0 V to 5 V |
Required Level of IEC ESD Protection | ±15-kV Contact, ±15-kV Air Gap |
To begin the design process, some parameters must be decided upon; the designer must know the following:
The TPD3F303 supports signal ranges from 0 V to 5.5 V, which supports the SIM card application
The TPD3F303 is rated to withstand up to ±15-kV contact and ±15-kV air gap IEC ESD. This meets the IEC ESD design target.
