DATA SHEET

Caution Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) can

damage this device. This device must be protected at all times from ESD. Static charges may

easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can

discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD precautions must be employed at all times.

The information in this document is subject to change without notice. Before using this document, please

confirm that this is the latest version.

Not all products and/or types are available in every country. Please check with an NEC Electronics

sales representative for availability and additional information.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

ESD

Switch

• LESD provides a means to increase the ESD protection on a specific RF port, typically the port attached to the

antenna.

• The value may be tailored to provide specific electrical responses.

• The RF ground connections should be kept as short as possible and connected to directly to a good RF ground

for best performance.
