PRODUCT OVERVIEW

PulseGuard ESD Suppressors help protect sensitive electronic equipment against electrostatic discharge (ESD). They supplement the on-chip protection of integrated circuitry and are best suited for low-voltage, high-speed applications where low capacitance is important. Applications such as computer I/O ports (eg. video displays), network hardware, cell phone data ports, point-ofsale terminals, and industrial controls will benefit from this new technology. PulseGuard suppressors use polymer composite materials to suppress fast-rising ESD transients (as specified in IEC 61000-4-2 and MIL-STD- 883E).
