USB 2.0 Port Protection
Problem: Inductive voltage spikes and overcurrent from a short-circuit
When an unsuitable or faulty USB cable is plugged into the USB port, the applied voltage, polarity and permitted current may exceed the specifications of the power regulation circuits. This can damage the equipment and could become a safety concern.
|
| |
|
Solution: PolySwitch and PolyZen devices.
PolySwitch devices limit the flow of dangerously high currents during fault conditions and reset back to normal operating mode once the fault condition is removed; while PolyZen devices help clamp the voltage and shunt excess power to ground .

Problem: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
USB 2.0 protocol allows for data transfer rates of up to 480Mbps and supports plug and play hot swappable installation and operation. As a result of the increase in speed, low capacitance ESD protection of the bus is needed to maintain data integrity between devices in the network.

| |
|
Solution: PESD
Extremely low capacitance ESD protection devices (PESD) help shunt ESD away from sensitive circuitry in electronic devices without inducing signal distortion. PESD, which is a low capacitance (typically 0.25pF) ESD protection device, is capable of withstanding numerous ESD transients, and is a RoHS & IEC61000-4-2 compliant device having low leakage current and low clamping voltage.
