RClamp3346P
Low Capacitance RClamp®
6-Line ESD Protection
PROTECTION PRODUCTS
Description
Features
The RClamp®3346P provides ESD protection for
highspeed data interfaces. It features a high maximum
ESD withstand voltage of ±17kV contact and ±20kV
air discharge per IEC 61000-4-2. RClamp3346P is
designed to minimize both the ESD peak clamping and
the TLP clamping. Package inductance is reduced at
each pin resulting in lower peak ESD clamping voltage.
The dynamic resistance is among the industry’s lowest
at 0.15 Ohms (typical). Maximum capacitance on each
line to ground is 0.65pF allowing the RClamp3346P to
be used in applications operating in excess of 5GHz
without signal attenuation. Each device will protect up
to six lines (three high-speed pairs).
• ESD protection for high-speed data lines to
The RClamp3346P is in a 7-pin SGP2708N7 package
measuring 2.7 x 0.8mm with a nominal height of
0.50mm. The leads have a nominal pin-to-pin pitch of
0.40mm. Flow- through package design simplifies PCB
layout and maintains signal integrity on high-speed lines.

Application Information
Protecting USB 3.0 Ports
RClamp3346P is designed to protect all six USB 3.0
SuperSpeed and high speed differential lines. PCB
traces enter and exit each I/O pin and ground is
connected at pin 2. For best results, it is
recommended that the ground connection be made
using a filled via-in-pad. The via should be filled with a
conductive paste. This technique saves board space
and reduces parasitic inductance in the ground path.
Figures 2 and 3 are examples of how to route high
speed differential traces through the RClamp3346P.
Differential impedance of each pair can easily be
controlled for USB 3.0 (85 Ohms +/-15%).
Figure 1 - USB 3.0 Eye Diagram with RClamp3346P
The RClamp3346P should be placed as close to the
connector as possible for optimum ESD performance.
Internal construction of the RClamp3346P has been
optimized to minimize series inductance within the
package. This helps to reduce the ESD peak clamping
voltage. Dynamic resistance is extremely low (typically
0.15 Ohms) further reducing the ESD clamping voltage.

Assembly Guidelines
The small size of this device means that some care
must be taken during the mounting process to insure
reliable solder joint. Semtech’s recommended assembly
guidelines for mounting this device are shown in the
Table 1. Figure 4 details Semtech’s recommended
aperture. Note that these are only recommendations
and should serve only as a starting point for design
since there are many factors that affect the assembly
process. Exact manufacturing parameters will require
some experimentation to get the desired solder
application.
