Zusammenfassung:A transient protection circuit including a reference diode D5 with its cathode connected to ground, a transistor 65 biased as a current source having its output terminal operably connected to an anode of the reference diode, and at least a second diode D6 operably connected between the anode of the reference diode and a bus pin 22, whereby the transistor supplies current when a module ground is intact. The circuit is particularly suitable for an integrated circuit.
