Product details
Overview
CM1224-04MR from onsemi is a 4-channel low-capacitance ESD protection array designed for high-speed data lines, featuring 0.7 pF typical channel input capacitance, ±8 kV IEC 61000−4−2 contact discharge rating, and integrated VP–VN Zener clamping to protect supply rails without external bypass capacitors. It is used in HDMI, DVI, and USB 2.0 interfaces where minimal signal loading and robust ESD immunity are critical.
For engineers reviewing the CM1224-04MR datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, MSOP-10 package layout, differential-signal-optimized capacitance matching (0.02 pF typical), clamping voltage behavior under 1 A transients, and real-world selection guidance against comparable ESD arrays.
Technical Context
The CM1224-04MR implements a dual-diode steering architecture per channel-routing positive ESD pulses to VP and negative pulses to VN-combined with an embedded Zener diode between VP and VN to clamp supply rail overvoltage and eliminate reliance on external decoupling capacitors. Its design targets systems where parasitic inductance on supply rails would otherwise degrade clamping performance.
It operates across –40°C to +85°C, supports 3.3 V and 5.5 V supply rails, delivers 10 V positive clamping voltage at 1 A transient, and maintains stable 0.7 pF input capacitance across voltage and temperature-enabling reliable use in differential high-speed links like HDMI and Serial ATA without skew or insertion loss degradation.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for CM1224-04MR?
The CM1224-04MR is rated for continuous operation from –40°C to +85°C, matching industrial-grade ambient requirements. This range is validated per Table 2 (Absolute Maximum Ratings) and Table 3 (Standard Operating Conditions) in the official onsemi datasheet CM1224/D Rev. 7. Thermal derating is not required within this span, and the MSOP-10 package's 400 mW power rating remains fully applicable across the full temperature window. CM1224-04MR maintains specified clamping voltage and leakage performance throughout this range.
Does CM1224-04MR require an external bypass capacitor on the VP pin?
No, CM1224-04MR does not require an external bypass capacitor on the VP pin due to its integrated Zener diode between VP and VN. This Zener clamps supply rail overvoltage during positive ESD events and eliminates the need for a discrete 0.22 µF ceramic capacitor-reducing BOM count and PCB area. However, for lowest possible VCL when VP is biased significantly below the Zener breakdown voltage, onsemi recommends adding a 0.22 µF capacitor as an optional enhancement. CM1224-04MR's datasheet explicitly states this capability in the Application Information section.
How many ESD strikes can CM1224-04MR withstand before performance degradation?
Each I/O pin of CM1224-04MR is rated to withstand over 1000 ESD strikes at ±8 kV (IEC 61000−4−2 contact discharge), as confirmed in the Features section of the onsemi datasheet. This endurance is measured under standardized test conditions and reflects functional retention-not just survival-meaning clamping voltage, leakage, and capacitance remain within specification after repeated stress. CM1224-04MR's robustness supports high-volume manufacturing test environments and field-replaceable port applications where repeated handling is expected.
What is the significance of the "0.02 pF typical capacitance matching" spec for CM1224-04MR?
The 0.02 pF typical capacitance matching between channels in CM1224-04MR ensures minimal inter-channel skew in differential signaling applications such as HDMI and DVI. This tight matching prevents unequal delay between complementary signals, which would otherwise cause eye diagram closure, jitter accumulation, or bit-error-rate increase at multi-Gbps data rates. Verified at 1 MHz with 3.3 V bias, this parameter directly enables CM1224-04MR to protect differential pairs without compromising timing integrity-unlike broader-tolerance arrays. CM1224-04MR's matching spec is a key differentiator for high-fidelity video and storage interfaces.
Can CM1224-04MR be used in 5 V systems?
Yes, CM1224-04MR supports 5 V systems: its operating supply voltage range (VP − VN) is 3.3 V to 5.5 V per Table 4 of the datasheet, and its ±8 kV ESD rating applies across that full range. The Zener diode's breakdown voltage is designed to clamp safely above 5 V, and clamping voltage remains +10 V / −1.8 V at 1 A even at 5.5 V VP. All electrical characteristics-including leakage, capacitance, and dynamic resistance-are guaranteed at 5 V operation. CM1224-04MR is routinely deployed in 5 V HDMI source devices and USB host controllers.
