Overview
The ESDAXLC6-1BU2 is a bidirectional single-line TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diode designed by STMicroelectronics to protect data lines and other I/O ports against ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) transients. This device is particularly suited for applications where reduced line capacitance and board space saving are essential. It is ideal for high-speed interfaces and compact circuit designs due to its ultra-small PCB area and low capacitance.
