Description
The SP725 is an array of SCR/Diode bipolarstructures for ESD and overvoltage protection of sensitive inputs circuits.
The SP725 has 2 protection SCR/Diode device structures per input.
There are a total of 4 available inputs that can be used to protect up to 4 external signal or bus lines.
Overvoltage protection is from the IN (Pins 1 - 4) to V+ or V-.
The SCR structures are dusigned for fast triggering at athreshold of one +VBE diode threshold above V+ (Pin 5,6) or one -VBE diode threshold below V- (Pin 7,8).
From an IN input, a clamp to V+ is activated if a transient pulse causes the input to be increased to a voltage level greater than one VBE above V+.
A similar clamp to V- is activated if a negative pulse, one VBE less than V-, is applied to an IN input.
Refer to Fig 1 and Table 1 for further detaels.
Refer to Application Note AN9304 and AN9612 for furter detail.
