Product details
Overview
AOZ8211DI-05 from Alpha and Omega Semiconductor is a unidirectional single-line TVS diode designed for ESD and transient protection of 5 V signal lines. It features a working peak reverse voltage of 5.0 V, clamping voltage of 8.0 V at 1 A IPP, 16 pF typical capacitance at 0 V, ±28 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD rating, and operates from −40 °C to +85 °C in a DFN 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm package. It is used to safeguard high-speed data interfaces in portable electronics against electrostatic discharge.
For engineers reviewing the AOZ8211DI-05 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping voltage at specified peak current, capacitance impact on signal integrity, working voltage alignment with I/O rail, ESD robustness per IEC 61000-4-2, and ultra-compact DFN footprint for space-constrained layouts.
Technical Context
The AOZ8211DI-05 is a unidirectional silicon avalanche TVS diode optimized for low-capacitance, low-clamping protection of 5 V logic and data lines. Its breakdown voltage is 6.0 V minimum at 1 mA test current, with maximum reverse leakage of 0.1 µA at 5.0 V VRWM and forward voltage ≤0.75 V at 10 mA.
It delivers 50 W peak pulse power (8/20 µs waveform) and handles up to 5.5 A peak pulse current. The device uses a single-anode–single-cathode configuration in a two-terminal DFN package, enabling straightforward series placement between protected line and ground.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 5.0 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction; matches standard 5 V I/O rails. |
| VBR (min) | 6.0 V @ 1 mA - Ensures reliable turn-on above normal signal swing while avoiding false triggering. |
| VCL @ IPP=1 A | 8.0 V - Clamped voltage seen by protected circuit during 1 A transient; limits stress on downstream ICs. |
| CJ (typ) | 16 pF @ 0 V - Low capacitance preserves signal integrity on high-speed lines such as USB 2.0 or I²C. |
| ESD Contact | ±28 kV - Exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±8 kV), enabling robust system-level ESD immunity. |
| Package | DFN 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.5 mm - Ultra-small footprint reduces PCB area use by >50% vs. SOD-323. |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +85 °C - Rated for commercial and industrial ambient conditions without derating. |
Pinout & Package
AOZ8211DI-05 is housed in a 2-pin DFN (Dual Flat No-lead) package measuring 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.5 mm, with exposed thermal pad connected to cathode internally. The package is RoHS-compliant and halogen-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Input signal connection | Connected to protected line (e.g., USB D+, HDMI TMDS+); conducts transient current toward cathode when clamped. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Ground reference terminal | Internally tied to thermal pad; must be soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal dissipation and low-inductance path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low clamping voltage | 8.0 V @ 1 A ensures protected ICs experience minimal overvoltage during ESD events. |
| Ultra-low capacitance | 16 pF enables use on 480 Mbps USB 2.0 or 3.4 Mbps I²C without signal degradation. |
| High ESD robustness | ±28 kV contact discharge exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4, reducing need for secondary protection. |
| Compact DFN footprint | 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm saves >60% board area versus legacy SOT-23 TVS devices. |
| Low leakage | 0.1 µA max at 5.0 V VRWM prevents DC loading on sensitive analog or low-power I/O. |
Applications
| USB 2.0 Data Lines | HDMI Hot-Plug Detection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ5.0A | DO-214AC package (4.5 mm × 2.7 mm); 5.0 V VRWM; 14.5 V VCL @ 1 A; 100 pF CJ | Higher capacitance limits use to low-speed lines; larger footprint requires more PCB area | Select SMAJ5.0A only when higher surge current handling (40 A IPP) outweighs size and bandwidth constraints. |
| ESD5Z5.0T1G | SOD-523 package (1.2 mm × 0.8 mm); 5.0 V VRWM; 12.5 V VCL @ 1 A; 45 pF CJ | Higher clamping and capacitance reduce margin for high-speed or low-voltage-tolerant ICs | Choose ESD5Z5.0T1G where cost sensitivity dominates and 45 pF capacitance is acceptable for <10 Mbps signals. |
Compared with SMAJ5.0A and ESD5Z5.0T1G, the AOZ8211DI-05 provides superior high-speed signal compatibility due to its 16 pF capacitance and 8.0 V clamping, while occupying the smallest PCB area-making it optimal for modern compact, high-data-rate designs where layout density and signal fidelity are critical.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of AOZ8211DI-05 at 5 A peak pulse current?
The AOZ8211DI-05 has a maximum clamping voltage of 9.0 V at 5 A peak pulse current (8/20 µs waveform). This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the Rev. 5.0 datasheet and ensures downstream 5 V logic components remain within safe operating limits during high-energy transients.
Is AOZ8211DI-05 unidirectional or bidirectional?
The AOZ8211DI-05 is a unidirectional TVS diode, configured for protection of positive-going transients on 5 V DC-biased lines. Its pinout (Anode to signal, Cathode to ground) and electrical specs-including asymmetric breakdown and clamping behavior-confirm unidirectional operation per the device's "Single Line Unidirection Protection" schematic on page 2.
Does AOZ8211DI-05 meet automotive AEC-Q200 requirements?
No, AOZ8211DI-05 is not qualified to AEC-Q200. Its specified ambient temperature range is −40 °C to +85 °C, and the datasheet does not list AEC-Q200 qualification or extended temperature testing. For automotive applications, consult AOS' AEC-Q200-qualified TVS portfolio such as the AOZ823x series.
What is the marking code for AOZ8211DI-05 on the package?
The AOZ8211DI-05 is marked with the code "J" on the top surface of its DFN package, as shown in the Ordering Information table on page 2 of the Rev. 5.0 datasheet. This laser-marked identifier distinguishes it from other variants (e.g., "Q" for -02, "G" for -03) and enables visual verification during assembly and inspection.
Can AOZ8211DI-05 be used to protect 3.3 V I/O lines?
No-AOZ8211DI-05 is rated for 5.0 V VRWM and is intended for 5 V systems. Using it on 3.3 V lines risks premature conduction due to insufficient voltage margin between VRWM (5.0 V) and the 3.3 V rail, potentially causing leakage or malfunction. For 3.3 V protection, use AOZ8211DI-03 (3.3 V VRWM) instead.
