Description
TPD6F002-Q1EVM Texas Instruments Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Circuit Protection Evaluation Board
Texas Instrument’s TPD6F002-Q1 evaluation module helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the TPD6F002-Q1 device. The TPD6F002-Q1 is a six-channel EMI filter in a space-saving DSV package. This low-pass filter array reduces EMI emissions and provides system-level ESD protection at the data ports. Because of its small package and easy-to-use pin assignments, this device is suitable for a wide array of applications such as mobile handsets, PDAs, video consoles, notebook computers, etc. In particular, the TPD6F002 is ideal for EMI filtering and protecting data lines from ESD at the LCD display, keypad, and memory interfaces. The pi-style (C-R-C) filter provides at least 35 dB attenuation in the carrier frequency range. The TPD6F002 is a highly integrated device designed to suppress EMI/RFI noise in all systems subjected to electromagnetic interferences. This filter includes ESD protection circuitry that prevents damage to the application when subjected to ESD up to IEC 61000-4-2 ±20 kV Contact ESD and ±30 kV Air-Gap ESD. The TPD6F002-Q1 is characterized for operation over an ambient air temperature range of –40°C to 125°C.
The TPD6F002-Q1EVM contains two TPD6F002-Q1’s. One TPD6F002-Q1 (U1) is configured with 4 SMA (J1 – J4) connectors to allow 4-port analysis with a vector network analyzer. One TPD6F002-Q1 (U2) is configured with test points for striking ESD to the protection pins and is also configured for capturing clamping waveforms using J5 with an oscilloscope during an ESD test.
