Product details
Overview
CM1223-02SR from onsemi is a 2-channel ESD protection diode array in SOT143-4 package, designed for high-speed data lines requiring ultra-low capacitance (1.0 pF typical), ±8 kV IEC 61000−4−2 contact ESD protection, and integrated backdrive current blocking. It protects USB 2.0 and HDMI signal paths by steering ESD transients to VP/VN rails while suppressing reverse current flow into unpowered subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the CM1223-02SR datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include channel count, 1.0 pF input capacitance, 4-pin SOT143 footprint, ±15 kV HBM rating, and backdrive diode integration-critical for hot-plug interfaces like removable storage and digital video ports.
Technical Context
The CM1223-02SR implements a dual-diode series architecture per channel, with each I/O pin connected via stacked diodes to VP (positive rail) and VN (ground rail), enabling bidirectional ESD current steering. A Zener diode between VP and VN clamps positive surges and eliminates need for external bypass capacitors.
Integrated backdrive protection uses a dedicated diode between VP and VN to limit reverse current to ≤5 µA when an I/O pin voltage exceeds the supply rail-preventing unintended power-up of unpowered devices in HDMI or USB interconnects.
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VN | Ground reference rail - connects directly to system GND plane to provide low-inductance return path for ESD current |
| 2 | CH1 | Protected I/O channel - routes high-speed signal (e.g., USB D+) through internal diode stack to VP/VN |
| 3 | CH2 | Protected I/O channel - routes complementary signal (e.g., USB D−) with matched 0.02 pF capacitance delta |
| 4 | VP | Positive supply rail - accepts 3.3 V or 5 V bias; integrates Zener for rail clamping and eliminates external decoupling cap |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Two independent ESD channels safeguarding TMDS+ and TMDS−, referenced to local 3.3 V rail (VP) and chassis ground (VN). Use Value: 8.8 V positive clamp voltage stays below absolute maximum ratings of TI TFP410 and similar DVI serializers; 0.11 pF mutual capacitance avoids inter-lane jitter coupling. |
Use Scenario: Protecting PCIe PERST# and WAKE# detection lines in embedded systems where hot-plug events induce backdrive currents. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single CM1223-02SR used across two control lines, using CH1/CH2 to block reverse current from powered slots into unpowered root complexes. Use Value: ≤5 µA backdrive leakage prevents false assertion of reset states; ±15 kV HBM rating ensures reliability during board-level handling and field service. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPD2E001DRYR | 2-channel, 1.0 pF, ±8 kV IEC, but no integrated backdrive diode; requires external bias network for rail clamping | Lacks VP–VN Zener and backdrive blocking - unsuitable for HDMI hot-plug scenarios where reverse current must be suppressed | Select when only basic ESD protection is needed and system design allows separate rail decoupling and no backdrive risk |
| SP1002-02UTG | 2-channel, 0.6 pF, ±12 kV IEC, but no backdrive protection and no Zener rail clamp; uses different SOT-23-6 footprint | Lower capacitance benefits >1 Gbps links, but absence of backdrive function excludes use in powered-peripheral interconnects | Prefer for ultra-high-speed serial links (e.g., SATA III) where backdrive is not a concern and layout permits SOT-23-6 placement |
Compared with TPD2E001DRYR and SP1002-02UTG, the CM1223-02SR uniquely integrates backdrive current blocking and VP rail Zener clamping in a 4-pin SOT143, enabling single-component protection for hot-pluggable interfaces without external components or layout compromises.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating voltage range for the CM1223-02SR?
The CM1223-02SR supports an operating supply voltage (VP − VN) of 3.3 V to 5.5 V, with absolute maximum rating of 6.0 V. This range covers standard USB 2.0 (3.3 V) and HDMI 1.4 (5 V) interface logic levels. Operation outside this range may compromise ESD clamping performance or cause permanent damage. The CM1223-02SR must be biased within this window to ensure proper diode conduction and Zener clamping behavior.
Does the CM1223-02SR require external bypass capacitors on the VP rail?
No, the CM1223-02SR does not require external bypass capacitors on the VP rail because it integrates a Zener diode between VP and VN that absorbs positive ESD strikes and stabilizes the supply rail. This internal Zener eliminates the need for external 100 nF ceramic capacitors typically used with discrete ESD arrays, simplifying PCB layout and reducing component count. The CM1223-02SR achieves rail stabilization solely through its monolithic structure.
How does the backdrive protection function in the CM1223-02SR?
The CM1223-02SR incorporates a dedicated diode between VP and VN that blocks reverse current flow when an I/O pin voltage exceeds the VP supply level-limiting leakage to ≤5 µA. This prevents unpowered peripherals (e.g., HDMI displays) from inadvertently charging upstream power rails during hot-plug events. The backdrive protection is intrinsic to the CM1223-02SR die and requires no external circuitry or configuration.
Can the CM1223-02SR be used for differential signal protection such as USB D+/D−?
Yes, the CM1223-02SR is explicitly designed for differential signal protection: its 0.02 pF typical capacitance mismatch between CH1 and CH2 ensures balanced loading across D+ and D−, preserving signal symmetry and minimizing skew. With 1.0 pF typical input capacitance and 0.11 pF mutual capacitance, the CM1223-02SR maintains USB 2.0 eye diagrams and meets full-speed timing budgets without degrading jitter or rise time.
What is the thermal performance of the CM1223-02SR in SOT143-4 package?
The CM1223-02SR in SOT143-4 package has a specified package power rating of 225 mW under standard operating conditions. Its thermal resistance (θJA) is optimized for surface-mount operation on 2-layer PCBs with standard copper pour; derating is required above +85°C ambient. The CM1223-02SR's low dynamic resistance (0.7 Ω positive, 0.4 Ω negative) minimizes self-heating during ESD events, ensuring reliable clamping without thermal runaway.
