4.9.6 Insertion Loss

Insertion loss is the amount of power loss or signal strength that occurs when a device is inserted into a circuit. This is important for ESD protection devices since a large capacitance can lead to degraded signal quality. Below shows an example of an insertion loss plot from the ESD341 data sheet. Usually, the device is able to support the signal speed between the 0 and -3-dB range. The device shown in Figure 4-9 and supports up to 5-GHz.
