Hi Kuramochi,

What system and certification are you referring to? ESD122 is just a discrete 2 channel diode that protects systems from ESD events. This part can be used to protect USB 3.1 gen 2 lines.

Hi Matt-san,

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, I know that ESD122 is just a protection device.

I would like to know if the system which is implemented ESD122s has ever passed USB3.2 certification.

Have you ever heard it?

Best Regards,

Kuramochi

Hi Kuramochi-san,

I am unfamiliar with this certification. However, we have had customers use this parts for USB 3.2 gen 2 applications in the past, and it worked fine for them. Signal integrity was not compromised, and it provided good ESD protection. Does that answer your question?
