Most CMOS chips include two protection diodes at every I/O pad, wired as clamps. These diodes limit the input voltage from going much higher than V CC or lower than ground. This limitation on the ...
External TVS diodes can be used to supplement the internal clamping diodes of ICs. Surge ability of silicon TVS diodes are related to size. External TVS diodes can be 10x larger than internal clamping ...
