Tool/software:
This should be a very simple question,
I checked the GM document (CG6471 - Appendix S5) regarding part selection,
for the TLIN1431-Q1, it says “no external ESD protection required”.
Does this mean that I don't need to use ESD protection elements (e.g. ESD diodes) when designing with TLIN1431?
Or is it still better to design with external ESD protection for higher reliability?
