Hi everybody,
I realize this may be an overly-general question, but I'm wondering how to add ESD protection to my circuits. I know there are about a million ways to do this, and some are better for high-speed, some for low speed. Right now I only need it for very low speed logic levels, but who knows what I will try and build in the future?
So my question, is there a simple way to protect inputs that will work for most cases (including serial port and I2C speeds)? Like a single SMT component I can just solder between the input and ground?
Thanks,
Alex
