SN65LVDT14: Additional ESD / TVS protection?

Part Number: SN65LVDT14

Hi Team,

Good day! This is one of the concerns of our customers.

With the integrated 16KV ESD protection specified for the SN65LVDT41PW and SN65LVDT14PW LVDS-to-LVTTL translators, is it either recommended or needed to add external TVS diodes as well? The design under question has the transmitters and receiver separated by about 0.7m.

Best regards,

Jonathan
