8 Applications and Implementation

8.1 Application Information

The TPD4S012 is a four-channel Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) based Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection diode array for USB chargers and USB On-The-Go (OTG) interfaces.

The TPD4S012 provides IEC 61000-4-2 system level ESD Protection featuring 15 V tolerance on the VBUS line. The device is ideal for providing circuit protection for USB charger and OTG applications due to its high-voltage tolerance at the VBUS line and small flow-through package.

8.2 Typical Application

8.2.1 Design Requirements

For this design example, a single TPD4S012 is used to protect all pins of a micro/mini USB connector.

Given the USB application, the following parameters are known.

DESIGN PARAMETER VALUE
Signal range on D+, D–, and ID 0 V to 5 V
Signal range on VBUS 0 V to 5 V
Operating Frequency 240 MHz

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

To begin the design process, some parameters must be decided upon; the designer needs to know the following:

  • Signal range on all the protected lines
  • Operating frequency

8.2.2.1 Signal Range on D+, D-, ID and VBUS pins

The TPD4S012 has 3 pins which support 0 to 5.5 V signals, these are suited for the D+, D–, and ID pins. The VBUS pin is suitable for the VBUS line, and has the benefit of being tolerant of voltages up to 16 V

8.2.2.2 Operating Frequency

The 0.8 pF (Typ) of the TPD4S012 support data rates in excess of 480 Mbps.
