Product Description
The PACVGA201 provides seven channels of ESD protection for all signal lines commonly found in a VGA port. ESD protection is implemented with current−steering diodes designed to safely handle the high surge currents encountered with IEC−61000−4−2 Level−4 ESD Protection (8 kV contact discharge). When a channel is subjected to an electrostatic discharge, the ESD current pulse is diverted via the protection diodes into the positive supply rail or ground where it may be safely dissipated.
