The XtremeESD Family:
PicoGuard XP provides the highest level of protection for sensitive high speed ICs, such as USB, where traditional single clamp architectures are no longer effective. PicoGuard XS provides the best signal integrity with improved ESD protection for extreme high speed data interfaces. PicoGuard XS devices integrate low capacitance diodes with inductors to enable high frequency ESD protection and provide matching impedance without requiring external compensation, and are ideal solutions for ports such as HDMI 1.3 and DisplayPort.
Interface Protection Solutions:
California Micro Devices provides a wide range of application specific interface protection solutions that integrate ESD protection with analog, logic and EMI filtering. These solutions replace dozens of discrete components while improving performance, reducing board space and overall cost. Application specific interface protection solutions are available for HDMI, VGA, USB and CompactPCI.
Praetorian III EMI Filters:
The new process technology integrates spiral inductors with capacitors and ESD protection diodes in a single chip design, making it ideal for high speed interfaces in mobile handset applications and other portable electronics. Praetorian III technology, with its unique coupled inductor design, offers high levels of inductance and low levels of capacitance to deliver EMI suppression, excellent signal integrity and robust ESD production in a space efficient, single chip solution.
Featured Session:
California Micro Devices will deliver a presentation on Evaluating ESD Protection Solutions for High Speed Ports, on March 31, 2009 at 5:30 PM.
California Micro Devices is a supplier of application specific analog and mixed signal semiconductor products.
