Infineon presented the protective components of high-speed card mini/micro-SD and ESD protection and electromagnetic interference filtering

Infineon BGF148

Chip BGF148 is the latest addition to Infineon passive protection IC family with integrated ESD/EMI protection for flash memory interfaces. This family now comprises BGF BGF104c, BGF117, BGF148 and BGF149 and thus addresses all flash memory cards from MMC to SD and µSD.

Infineon BGF148

Previously, it supported speed ranges from 12.5MB/s to 25MB/s. With the launch of BGF148, it now also covers 104MB/s. BGF148 utilizes a new technology that allows line capacitance to be reduced to 1.2pF despite integrated pi-type ESD/EMI filtering. Low line capacitance enables data transfer rates up to 104MB/s without negative impact on data signal integrity.

Features

  • Complies with following standards: SD Card Specification V4.1, including UHS104 mode
  • Suitable for high-speed applications due to average low line capacitance of 1.2pF
  • 7-line bidirectional ESD protection in line with IEC61000-4-2 for ±15kV
  • 6-line pi-type EMI filter for superior EMI filtering and very low cross-talk due to low parasitics
  • Very low leakage currents

Applications

  • High-speed mini-/micro SD cards requiring ESD protection and EMI filter
  • SD3.0 card interfaces (mini, micro), offering downward compatibility to SD2.0 and lower
  • Feature phones
  • Smart phones
  • Tablets, laptops and desktops
  • Digital still cameras, digital video cameras and other electronic devices
