Murata has introduced the LXES series of ceramic- and silicon-based ESD-protection devices. Silicon-based devices feature a low-capacitance design—down to 0.25pF typical—that also minimises signal loss on high-speed data and transmission lines. Another feature is high suppression levels at less than 100V output when the input voltage is 15kV. The product series includes one-, two-, four- and six-line array designs. Ceramic-based devices feature a capacitance down to 0.05pF typical and a small case size. These devices produce a distortion of under -100dBm at 800MHz, making them suitable for use in antenna circuitry. Both silicon- and ceramic-based devices feature a repetition durability of 1000 cycles at a 8kV contact voltage.
