Discover how Semtech's HotSwitch provides reliable protection for modern electronics, ensuring efficient power management in a compact design. Safeguard your devices from inrush current, over voltage, under voltage, and short circuits.

Learn how TVS Diodes with Side-Wettable Flanks enhance solder joint visibility for automated visual inspection (AVI) in industrial use cases. Semtech's TVS diode optimizes board space, supports AVI, and boosts reliability saving time and money.

Discover the crucial role Transient Voltage Diodes play in safeguarding USB Type C ports against electrostatic discharge (ESD) spikes, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity and data integrity for seamless interaction with high-performance devices.

When safeguarding your electronic systems against ESD (Electrostatic Discharge), it is essential to understand the importance of capacitance in an ESD protection device.

On-Chip ESD Protection is Not Enough

Limiting your ESD protection to on-chip devices is simply not enough. Watch this video to learn more about why choosing appropriate external protection devices is important to increase the overall system robustness.

If you're concerned about safeguarding your electronic systems against ESD, relying solely on chip protection won't suffice. It's crucial to choose the appropriate external protection devices to boost the system's overall resilience.

Semtech 2022 Embedded World Interview

Semtech interview at Embedded World 2022.

SX1261 and SX1262 from Semtech are sub-GHz radio transceivers that support LoRa modulation for LPWAN (low power wide-area network) and (G)FSK (Gaussian frequency shift keying) modulation.

RClamp3354S.TCT RailClamp® TVS diode protects sensitive components connected to high-speed data and transmission lines from overvoltage caused by electrical fast transients (EFT), cable discharge events (CDE), and electrostatic discharge (ESD).

Semtech’s TS13401 is a galvanically isolated, 60 V power FET driver with bidirectional blocking.

The SX1276 transceivers feature the LoRa® long-range modem that provides ultra-long-range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity while minimizing current consumption.
