TPS3619-33-EP: ESD Protection of VBat pin

Part Number: TPS3619-33-EP
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS3619, TVS0701

Hi

Are there any recommended low leakage ESD protection solutions for the VBat pin of the TPS3619?

We are concerned with protecting the device when a user replaces the battery.

I have been searching but, so far, I have not managed to find an application note that covers low leakage ESD protection for the battery input terminals.

many thanks

Simon

  • Hi Simon,

    Thank you for reaching out to the E2E forum!

    Form looking at the datasheet of the TPS3619 I can see the max voltage for the VBat pin is 5.5. Since this is the working voltage you could use the TVS0701 which has a low leakage current.

    I can't think of an application note that covers exactly ESD for battery input terminals but you can find several documents by going to this link: www.ti.com/.../technical-documents.html

    I hope this helps!

    Regards,
