Vishay - Diode protects high-speed data lines and antennas against transient voltage signals (VBUS05B1-SD0 ESD)

Vishay VBUS05B1-SD0 ESD protection diode can provide ultra-low capacitance as low as 0.29pF typical, and the leakage current is less than. 0.1μA is used to protect high-speed data lines and antennas from transient voltage signals. VBUS05B1-SD0's chip-scale package (size 0603) is one of the smallest packages in the industry and requires three times the board space of a 1006 size package. The company said that due to its short leads and small package size, the diode's line inductance is very low, which can clamp fast transient voltages such as ESD surges to a minimum.
