Overview
The PESD15VL1BAZ is a bidirectional ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) protection diode manufactured by Nexperia, which was previously part of NXP Semiconductors. This component is designed to protect one signal line from the damage caused by ESD and other transients. It is packaged in a very small SOD323 (SC-76) SMD plastic package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
