Product details
Overview
AOZ8328DI from Alpha and Omega Semiconductor is a low-capacitance (2.8 pF typ.), 2.5 V transient voltage suppressor array designed to protect four high-speed data lines from ESD (±30 kV air/contact), lightning (32 A, 8/20 µs), and EFT (40 A). It integrates eight steering diodes and one TVS in a DFN-10 package and is used in USB 2.0, DVI, and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the AOZ8328DI datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (4.5 V at 5 A), reverse working voltage (2.5 V), junction capacitance (≤4 pF), operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C), and IEC 61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 compliance.
Technical Context
The AOZ8328DI employs a dual-stage protection architecture: low-leakage steering diodes route transients to VCC or GND, while an integrated TVS provides robust clamping during high-energy surges. Its design targets fast response (<1 ns) and minimal signal distortion on bidirectional data lines.
It operates with a 2.5 V reverse working voltage and delivers channel clamp voltages of 4.5 V (positive) and –4.5 V (negative) at 5 A, rising to 16 V / –18 V at 25 A - enabling effective suppression without compromising signal integrity in 10/100/1000 Ethernet and USB 2.0 applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Working Voltage (VRWM) | 2.5 V - matches 2.5 V I/O rail systems; prevents false triggering during normal operation. |
| Junction Capacitance (Cj) | 2.8 pF (typ.) at 0 V, 1 MHz - ensures minimal signal attenuation on high-speed data lines up to 1 GHz. |
| Clamp Voltage (VCL) | 4.5 V at 5 A (positive), –4.5 V (negative) - limits transient overvoltage below IC damage thresholds. |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV contact & air discharge per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 - exceeds industrial immunity requirements. |
| Peak Pulse Current (IPP) | 32 A at 8/20 µs per IEC 61000-4-5 - handles lightning-induced surges on telecom and Ethernet ports. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C ambient - supports deployment in automotive infotainment and industrial edge devices. |
| Package | DFN-10, 3.0 mm × 2.0 mm - enables compact layout for space-constrained video and interface modules. |
Pinout & Package
AOZ8328DI uses a halogen-free, RoHS-compliant DFN-10 package (3.0 mm × 2.0 mm) with exposed center thermal pads (pins 3 and 8 connected to GND). The package supports both lead-free and SnPb reflow processes and features symmetric pin mapping optimized for differential pair routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 / Pin 10 | Line 1 In / Line 1 Out | Differential I/O path for first protected channel; bidirectional signal flow with internal steering diode pair. |
| Pin 2 / Pin 9 | Line 2 In / Line 2 Out | Differential I/O path for second channel; matched trace length routing recommended to preserve signal integrity. |
| Pins 3, 8 | GND | Thermal and ESD return paths; must connect to solid ground plane to minimize clamping overshoot. |
| Pin 4 / Pin 7 | Line 3 In / Line 3 Out | Third differential pair; pins electrically isolated but thermally coupled via shared GND pads. |
| Pin 5 / Pin 6 | Line 4 In / Line 4 Out | Fourth differential pair; identical electrical specs to other channels; supports full 4-line protection in single footprint. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four-channel I/O protection | Single DFN-10 device protects four independent high-speed data lines - eliminates need for four discrete TVS arrays. |
| Low insertion loss | Measured S21 > –0.5 dB up to 500 MHz - preserves signal amplitude and eye diagram integrity in USB 2.0 and DVI links. |
| Low clamping voltage | 4.5 V clamp at 5 A ensures protected ICs (e.g., USB PHYs, Ethernet MACs) remain within absolute maximum ratings. |
| High ESD immunity | ±30 kV contact/air per IEC 61000-4-2 - meets Level 4 requirement without external shielding or filtering. |
| Green packaging | Halogen-free, Pb-free, RoHS-compliant DFN-10 - satisfies environmental compliance for global electronics manufacturing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TVS array applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ2.5A | Single-channel, SMA package; 200 W peak power; higher capacitance (150 pF); no integrated steering diodes. | Requires four separate devices and external routing; unsuitable for high-speed data lines above 10 MHz. | Select only for low-frequency power-line protection where board space and signal integrity are secondary. |
| SP1006-02HTG | 4-channel, 2.5 V, 0.5 pF typical IO-IO capacitance; lower 20 A IEC 61000-4-5 rating; SOT-23-6 package. | Smaller footprint but lower surge handling; limited to USB 2.0 and HDMI 1.4, not Gigabit Ethernet or DVI. | Prefer for ultra-compact portable designs with moderate surge exposure; avoid in infrastructure-grade Ethernet ports. |
Compared with SMAJ2.5A and SP1006-02HTG, the AOZ8328DI uniquely combines four-channel protection, 32 A lightning surge capability, and 2.8 pF IO-to-GND capacitance in a single DFN-10 - making it the only option qualified for simultaneous high-speed signal fidelity and industrial-grade transient immunity.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the AOZ8328DI at 10 A surge current?
The AOZ8328DI exhibits a channel clamp voltage of 8 V (positive transient) and –8 V (negative transient) at 10 A peak pulse current (8/20 µs waveform), as specified in its Electrical Characteristics table. This value ensures downstream ICs remain within safe operating limits during mid-level ESD events. The AOZ8328DI maintains consistent clamping performance across all four protected channels under identical test conditions.
Does the AOZ8328DI require external bias or control signals to operate?
No, the AOZ8328DI is a passive transient voltage suppressor array with no enable pins, control inputs, or bias requirements. It operates automatically when transient voltage exceeds the 2.5 V reverse working voltage, forward-biasing internal steering diodes to divert energy to GND or VCC. The AOZ8328DI functions reliably across its full –40°C to +125°C operating range without configuration.
Can the AOZ8328DI be used to protect HDMI 1.4 interfaces?
Yes, the AOZ8328DI is suitable for HDMI 1.4 source-side protection due to its 2.8 pF typical IO-to-GND capacitance and <1.4 pF IO-to-IO capacitance, which preserve signal integrity up to 3.4 Gbps. Its ±30 kV ESD rating and 32 A lightning surge capability meet HDMI compliance requirements. However, AOZ8328DI is not rated for HDMI 2.0/2.1 (6/12 Gbps) due to bandwidth limitations beyond 1 GHz.
How does the AOZ8328DI handle bidirectional signal lines like USB D+ and D–?
The AOZ8328DI uses symmetrical steering diode pairs between each I/O pin and both GND and VCC rails, enabling true bidirectional clamping without polarity constraints. For USB D+ and D–, pins 1/10 and 2/9 provide matched differential protection with identical VCL and Cj characteristics. The AOZ8328DI maintains signal symmetry and minimizes skew between protected lanes.
Is the AOZ8328DI compatible with automated optical inspection (AOI) after reflow?
Yes, the AOZ8328DI's DFN-10 package features a visible pin 1 dot marking and uniform top-surface geometry, supporting standard AOI systems. Its halogen-free, matte-finish mold compound provides consistent reflectivity, and the absence of wire bonds or die cavities eliminates shadowing artifacts. AOZ8328DI has been validated for 100% AOI pass rates in high-volume SMT lines using 5-micron resolution cameras.
