Abstract
An overvoltage protection device includes first and second semiconductor devices arranged in an anti-serial configuration with a conductive link connected between the first and second semiconductor devices at a central node of the overvoltage protection device, a first terminal connection to a terminal of the first semiconductor device that is opposite from the central node, a second terminal connection to a terminal of the second semiconductor device that is opposite from the central node. A total capacitance of elements in a first transmission path that is between the first terminal connection and the central node substantially matches a total capacitance of elements in a second transmission path that is between the second terminal connection and the central node. The total capacitance of elements in the second transmission path includes a self-capacitance of the conductive link.
