Product details
Overview
AOZ8320DI-20 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for single-line surge and ESD protection on 20V power rails, featuring 32A IEC 61000-4-5 (8/20µs) peak pulse current, 1200W peak pulse power, and 165pF junction capacitance - deployed in USB power delivery, battery protection circuits, and mobile device power bus interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the AOZ8320DI-20 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include reverse working voltage (20V), clamping voltage under 44V at 32A, ultra-low leakage (<100nA), DFN1.6×0.8_2L package compatibility, and compliance with IEC 61000-4-2 (±30kV contact/air), IEC 61000-4-4 (80A EFT), and IEC 61000-4-5 standards.
Technical Context
The AOZ8320DI-20 implements a silicon avalanche diode structure optimized for fast response to high-energy transients on DC power lines. Its unidirectional configuration provides asymmetric clamping - forward conduction near 0.9V and reverse clamping up to 44V at 32A - enabling robust overvoltage suppression without affecting normal 20V rail operation.
Designed for placement between I/O line and ground, it operates across -40°C to +125°C ambient and achieves dynamic resistance of 0.12Ω (positive) / 0.1Ω (negative) over 1–30A TLP sweep, ensuring predictable voltage limiting during surge events per IEC 61000-4-5 and ESD stress profiles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Working Voltage (VRWM) | 20 V - maximum continuous DC voltage the device blocks without significant leakage. |
| Peak Pulse Current (IPP) | 32 A (8/20µs waveform) - sustains surge energy up to 1200W without failure. |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 44 V at -32A (8/20µs) - limits downstream voltage to safe levels during worst-case surge. |
| Junction Capacitance (CJ) | 165 pF at 0V, 1MHz - low enough to avoid signal integrity impact on 20V power bus routing. |
| ESD Rating (IEC 61000-4-2) | ±30 kV air & contact - exceeds Level 4 requirement, eliminating need for external ESD staging. |
| Leakage Current (IR) | <100 nA at 20V - negligible standby power loss in battery-critical applications. |
| Package | DFN1.6×0.8_2L - 1.6 mm × 0.8 mm footprint enables compact placement adjacent to protected ICs. |
Pinout & Package
AOZ8320DI-20 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, moisture-sensitive level 1 (MSL1) DFN1.6×0.8_2L package with two terminals: Pin 1 (Anode) connects to the protected power line; Pin 2 (Cathode) connects to system ground. No thermal pad or exposed metal; body dimensions are 1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.55 mm max height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Anode) | Protected Line Input | Connected directly to 20V rail (e.g., USB VBUS, battery input); conducts during reverse overvoltage. |
| Pin 2 (Cathode) | Ground Reference | Tied to low-impedance system ground plane; completes clamping path for surge current dissipation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Ultra-low leakage (<100nA @ 20V) | Preserves battery life in portable devices where quiescent current must remain sub-µA. |
| 165pF junction capacitance | Minimizes high-frequency noise coupling and avoids resonance issues on 20V power distribution networks. |
| Green, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant | Meets global environmental regulations and supports lead-free reflow soldering (JEDEC J-STD-020 MSL1). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ20A | DO-214AC package (4.5mm × 2.7mm); 32.4V VBR; 400W PPP; 350pF CJ | Larger footprint; higher clamping (45.7V @ 32.4A); unsuitable for space-constrained mobile designs | Choose SMAJ20A only if board area allows larger SMC/SMA packages and higher capacitance is acceptable. |
| SP1003-20 | SOD-323 package (1.7mm × 1.25mm); 20V VRWM; 25A IPP; 600W PPP; 200pF CJ | Lower surge rating (25A vs. 32A); lower peak power (600W vs. 1200W); same 20V operating point | Select SP1003-20 when 25A surge margin suffices and tighter layout constraints require SOD-323 form factor. |
Compared with SMAJ20A and SP1003-20, AOZ8320DI-20 delivers superior surge robustness (32A/1200W) in the smallest footprint (DFN1.6×0.8), making it optimal for high-density 20V power rail protection where both space and performance are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of AOZ8320DI-20 under IEC 61000-4-5 surge conditions?
The AOZ8320DI-20 clamps to a maximum of 44 V at −32 A under IEC 61000-4-5 8/20 µs surge conditions, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 6 of the Rev. 1.1 datasheet. This value ensures downstream 20V-rated components remain within safe operating limits during standardized surge testing. The clamping voltage is asymmetric due to its unidirectional design, with positive polarity clamping at 40 V under the same current.
Does AOZ8320DI-20 meet IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD requirements?
Yes, AOZ8320DI-20 exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4, delivering ±30 kV air discharge and ±30 kV contact discharge protection - double the ±15 kV air / ±8 kV contact required for Level 4. This performance is validated per test condition CDischarge = 150 pF / RDischarge = 330 Ω and applies directly to the AOZ8320DI-20 variant as stated in the General Description and Absolute Maximum Ratings sections.
What is the junction capacitance of AOZ8320DI-20 and how does it affect circuit design?
The AOZ8320DI-20 has a junction capacitance of 165 pF measured at 0 V and 1 MHz, as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 6. This low capacitance minimizes high-frequency loading on 20V power rails, preventing resonance or instability in sensitive analog or RF-adjacent circuits - especially critical in mobile devices where PCB space and signal integrity are tightly constrained.
Can AOZ8320DI-20 be used in automotive applications?
AOZ8320DI-20 operates across −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature and meets AEC-Q200 stress test requirements via AOS reliability qualification (HTRB, HAST, Temp Cycle). While not AEC-Q200 certified out-of-box, its thermal and surge performance aligns with non-safety-critical automotive power rail protection - e.g., infotainment USB ports or body control module 20V supplies - pending customer-level validation per ISO 7637-2 and ISO 10605.
What is the recommended PCB land pattern for AOZ8320DI-20?
The manufacturer specifies a DFN1.6×0.8_2L land pattern per page 9 of the datasheet: two 0.8 mm × 0.5 mm solder pads spaced 0.8 mm center-to-center, with 0.2 mm solder mask opening clearance. Thermal relief is not required; solid copper connections to ground and power planes are recommended to maximize surge current dissipation and minimize inductance in the clamping path for AOZ8320DI-20.
