ABSTRACT:
A device for protecting I/O lines using low capacitance steering diodes (1200) and PIN or NIP diodes (1202), (1203) is disclosed. A low capacitance diode arrangement configured as steering diodes protect a signal line or input/output (I/O) port (1201) from high voltage transients by diverting or directing the transient to either the positive side of the power supply line (1204) or to ground (1205).
