Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an ESD protection device (240) for a USB interface (210). The ESD protection device (240) comprises an ESD protection component (246) configured to limit a voltage applied to the USB interface (210) and at least one discharge resistor (244, 244.1, 244.2) configured to discharge an AC coupling capacitor (242) of the USB interface (210). The ESD protection component (246) and the discharge resistor (244, 244.1, 244.2) are incorporated in a single electronic component (245).
