Interface protection

Mobile devices are at the heart of the internet of things (IoT), creating ubiquitous connectivity among other devices, people and data. This exciting market is one of the largest worldwide in terms of volume and number of applications on a single platform, for example, smartphones.

Infineon offers a wide range of compact and best-in-class RF ICs for cellular RF Frontends, complementary wireless functions, as well as interface protection. For a safer end-user experience, we offer high-quality semiconductor solutions for battery and accessory designs and security solutions for data protection. Explore XENSIV™ MEMS microphones to enhance audio functionalities on mobile phones.

Miniaturization and integration combined with their general complexity make present-day mobile devices much more sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). The result: you are challenged to protect different interfaces from various ESD or surge scenarios without impacting signal integrity (SI). Interface protection requires suitable TVS diodes with the right level of protection along with the desired performance and price.

Market leader in the high performance protection segment, at Infineon we offer you a wide range of TVS diodes for both analog and digital applications, high-speed and RF interfaces as well as for power lines surge protection. To better meet your needs, we extended our TVS portfolio of chip scale packages to offer optimum ESD protection with consideration for performance, robustness, quality and price. Facing extreme space constraint, such as in wearables or a module? No problem, we offer the world’s smallest diode, ESD***-B1-CSP01005.
