Abstract
A protection device is provided for protecting an electrostatic discharge (ESD), sensitive device against an electromagnetic interference (EMI), event and/or an ESD event occurring on at least one of a first and second data line the ESD sensitive device is electrically connected to. Aspects of the present disclosure further relate to a system including an ESD sensitive device that is operatively coupled to a further device using a first and second data line, and the system includes the abovementioned protection device. The protection device uses a first inductor and/or second inductor and a first and/or shunt unit that each provide an electrical path between the first data line and/or second data line and ground in dependence of a voltage over the first and/or second inductor.
