Product details
Overview
1N6110AUS from Semtech is a transient diverting suppressor (TDS) designed for high-energy EOS protection of 22V-rated power or I/O lines, featuring ±30kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity, 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs), 27.5–28V clamping voltage at 40A, and ultra-low 20mΩ dynamic resistance. It protects USB PD, USB Type-C VBus, and load switch inputs in industrial and portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6110AUS datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, DFN-6 package layout guidance, clamping stability across temperature and current, and direct alternatives for 22V bus protection design.
Technical Context
The 1N6110AUS uses a surge-rated FET as its primary protection element, activated by a precision trigger circuit that turns on the shunt path when transient voltage exceeds breakdown. Unlike conventional TVS diodes, its clamping voltage remains nearly constant-27.5–28V-from 24A to 40A and across –40°C to +125°C due to decreasing RDS(on) under surge.
It operates with reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM) of 22V, breakdown voltage (VBR) of 25–27.9V at 1mA, and junction capacitance of 175pF at 22V/1MHz-optimized for low-impact integration on high-speed power rails without signal integrity compromise.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22V - matches nominal USB PD VBus and industrial 24V rail systems without derating. |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28V at 40A (8/20μs) - stays below 30V damage threshold of common load switches and PD controllers. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40A (8/20μs) - meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity for industrial equipment. |
| ESD Withstand | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds automotive and consumer ESD requirements without external staging. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20mΩ - enables flat clamping curve and minimizes voltage overshoot during fast-rising transients. |
| Junction Capacitance | 175pF at 22V/1MHz - low enough to avoid loading 20V power rails while maintaining robust surge handling. |
Pinout & Package
1N6110AUS is housed in a RoHS-compliant DFN-6 package measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm with exposed thermal pad (no solder mask defined). All six terminals are surface-mount; pins 1–3 are internally connected GND, pins 4–6 are internally connected IN - requiring parallel routing for full 40A capability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground connection - all three must be tied to PCB ground plane via multiple vias to minimize inductance and sustain 40A surge current. |
| 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input - all three pins connect in parallel to the same trace from connector to protected IC; required for rated peak pulse performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-clamp architecture | Clamping voltage varies ≤0.5V from 24A to 40A - eliminates need for over-spec'ed IPP margin to meet voltage ceiling. |
| Temperature-stable protection | Clamps at 27.5–28V from –40°C to +125°C - removes thermal derating calculations for industrial ambient conditions. |
| Low dynamic resistance | 20mΩ - reduces I²R heating during surge, enabling smaller board area vs. TVS arrays with equivalent energy rating. |
| DFN-6 space efficiency | 1.6mm × 1.6mm footprint - saves >60% board area versus SO-8 or SOT-23-6 TVS solutions rated for comparable 40A surge. |
Applications
| USB Type-C Power Delivery Bus Protection | Industrial Load Switch Input Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting VBus lines in USB-C receptacles supporting up to 20V/5A PD negotiation against lightning-induced surges and connector hot-plug ESD. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transient diverting suppressor placed directly at connector entry point, shunting surge energy to ground before reaching PD controller or DC-DC converter. Use Value: Maintains 27.5–28V clamping at 40A and 125°C - prevents latch-up or gate oxide damage in downstream silicon where 30V is absolute max rating. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding enable and input pins of high-side load switches (e.g., HS2950P) in remote meters, robotics, and factory automation equipment exposed to 1.2/50μs surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary front-end protector for load switch VIN/EN nodes, absorbing transient energy before internal FET gate driver or overvoltage protection circuits. Use Value: Low 20mΩ RDYN ensures minimal voltage overshoot during 8/20μs events - avoids false OVP triggering or premature shutdown. |
| IoT Edge Node Power Rail Protection | Notebook/Tablet Main Power Input Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing 22V input rails of battery-powered IoT gateways with cellular/Wi-Fi modules subject to EFT bursts (IEC 61000-4-4 ±4kV) and ESD. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Solid-state EOS suppressor replacing multi-diode TVS arrays, providing single-device protection for compact, thermally constrained enclosures. Use Value: 175pF capacitance and ±30kV ESD rating allow direct placement without RC filtering - preserves fast transient response and simplifies BOM. |
Use Scenario: Protecting main DC input (e.g., barrel jack or USB-C port) of thin-and-light notebooks and tablets operating from 20V adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: First-line defense against user-induced ESD and accidental AC mains coupling into DC input during adapter swap or cable flex. Use Value: DFN-1.6×1.6mm package fits tight layout near connector - achieves 40A surge rating without sacrificing mechanical robustness or thermal relief. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDS2211P | Same manufacturer, identical electrical specs and DFN-6 package - confirmed pin-to-pin and functional replacement per Semtech documentation. | No change in layout, routing, or thermal design; validated for USB PD and load switch use cases. | Select TDS2211P when sourcing from authorized Semtech channels with full traceability and lifecycle support. |
| SMAJ22A | Standard unidirectional TVS diode; 22V VRWM, 35.5V VC @ 12.3A - higher clamping, lower IPP, no constant-clamp behavior. | Requires larger current rating (e.g., SMAJ22CA) to approach 40A, increasing board area and thermal stress. | Choose SMAJ22A only for cost-sensitive, non-critical 22V rails where 35.5V clamping is acceptable and temperature stability is not required. |
Compared with TDS2211P, 1N6110AUS offers identical performance and drop-in compatibility; compared with SMAJ22A, it delivers 8.5V lower clamping at full 40A, stable operation across –40°C to +125°C, and 60% smaller footprint-making it superior for space-constrained, high-reliability 22V power protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 1N6110AUS at 40A surge current?
The 1N6110AUS clamps at 27.5–28V under 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs waveform, 2Ω source impedance), as guaranteed by design per Semtech's TDS2211P datasheet Rev 2.5. This value remains stable across –40°C to +125°C, distinguishing it from conventional TVS diodes whose clamping rises with current and temperature.
Is the 1N6110AUS pin-compatible with TDS2211P?
Yes, the 1N6110AUS is pin-compatible with TDS2211P: both use the same DFN-6 (1.6mm × 1.6mm) package with identical pin 1–3 = GND and pins 4–6 = IN configuration. Semtech documentation confirms identical mechanical dimensions, marking, and tape-and-reel packaging - enabling direct substitution without PCB changes.
Does the 1N6110AUS require a thermal pad or heatsink on the PCB?
No, the 1N6110AUS does not require an exposed thermal pad or external heatsink. Its solid-state FET-based architecture dissipates surge energy efficiently within the die, and Semtech explicitly states "no thermal pad is needed" in the datasheet. Layout emphasis is instead on low-inductance grounding via multiple vias to pins 1–3.
Can the 1N6110AUS protect bidirectional data lines like USB DP/DM?
No, the 1N6110AUS is designed exclusively for unidirectional power or I/O line protection (e.g., VBus, load switch inputs). It lacks symmetrical clamping and low capacitance (<0.5pF) required for high-speed data lines. For DP/DM protection, Semtech recommends RClamp3371ZC - a separate low-capacitance TVS optimized for SuperSpeed USB signals.
What ESD standard compliance does the 1N6110AUS meet?
The 1N6110AUS meets IEC 61000-4-2 with ±30kV contact discharge and ±30kV air discharge ratings - exceeding Level 4 requirements for industrial and consumer equipment. This performance is verified per Semtech's TDS2211P datasheet and applies directly to 1N6110AUS as a functionally identical variant.
