Product details
Overview
DF3D29FU,LXHF from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is an AEC-Q101-qualified ESD protection diode in USM package, designed for bidirectional transient suppression on high-speed data lines. It provides ±25 kV IEC61000-4-2 contact ESD immunity, 24 V working peak reverse voltage, and clamps to ≤47 V at 3 A peak pulse current - deployed in automotive infotainment USB interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the DF3D29FU,LXHF datasheet, DF3D29FU,LXHF pinout, DF3D29FU,LXHF application, or DF3D29FU,LXHF equivalent, key selection criteria include IEC/ISO ESD rating compliance, low dynamic resistance (≤10 Ω), sub-10 pF capacitance for signal integrity, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This device implements a silicon epitaxial planar TVS structure optimized for fast response to ESD transients. Its bidirectional clamping architecture delivers symmetrical protection with 26–32 V reverse breakdown voltage and ≤1.1 Ω typical dynamic resistance under TLP testing (8–16 A range).
Designed specifically for high-frequency signal lines, it maintains ≤9 pF total capacitance at 0 V bias and achieves ≤47 V clamp voltage at 3 A (IEC61000-4-5 8/20 µs), enabling use on USB 2.0, HDMI, and automotive CAN FD data paths without signal degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ESD Rating (IEC61000-4-2 Contact) | ±25 kV - meets automotive-level ESD immunity requirements for exposed connectors |
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage | 24 V - supports 24 V automotive supply rails and 5 V/3.3 V data line protection |
| Clamp Voltage @ 3 A | ≤47 V - limits downstream IC stress during ISO10605 330 pF/2 kΩ discharge events |
| Total Capacitance | ≤9 pF - preserves signal integrity on USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and CAN FD (5 Mbps) buses |
| Dynamic Resistance | ≤10 Ω - ensures rapid voltage clamping with minimal overshoot during fast ESD pulses |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - validated for automotive temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock per AEC standard |
Pinout & Package
DF3D29FU,LXHF uses the USM (Ultra Small Mold) surface-mount package (1.6 × 1.6 × 0.55 mm, 6.0 mg), featuring a 3-pin configuration with GND as common terminal and two symmetrical I/O pins for bidirectional protection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode of Diode D1 | Connects to protected signal line (e.g., USB D+); forms one leg of bidirectional clamp path |
| Pin 2 | Anode of Diode D2 | Connects to protected signal line (e.g., USB D−); mirrors Pin 1 for symmetrical ESD handling |
| Pin 3 | Cathode Common (GND) | Reference node for both diodes; must be tied to low-inductance system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor SZ1.5SMC24AT3G | Unidirectional, higher capacitance (15 pF), larger SMC package (7.1 × 6.2 mm) | Suitable for board-level power rail protection, not high-speed data lines | Select only when protecting DC supply lines with lower frequency content and no signal integrity constraints |
| Infineon ESD204-B1-02EL | Bidirectional, 5.5 pF capacitance, but rated only to ±15 kV IEC61000-4-2 contact | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification; limited to consumer-grade industrial applications | Choose for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where ESD threat level is moderate and space allows USP-4 package |
Compared with SZ1.5SMC24AT3G and ESD204-B1-02EL, DF3D29FU,LXHF uniquely balances automotive qualification, ultra-low capacitance, and bidirectional ±25 kV ESD robustness in a 1.6 mm footprint - making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-critical data interface protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of DF3D29FU,LXHF at 3 A peak pulse current?
The DF3D29FU,LXHF clamps to a maximum of 47 V at 3 A peak pulse current (IEC61000-4-5 8/20 µs waveform). This value is guaranteed per datasheet specifications and ensures downstream ICs remain within safe operating voltage margins during standardized surge events. The DF3D29FU,LXHF achieves this with ≤10 Ω dynamic resistance, minimizing voltage overshoot beyond the clamp threshold.
Is DF3D29FU,LXHF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, DF3D29FU,LXHF is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed in Toshiba's orderable part number documentation. This qualification covers temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and mechanical shock testing required for automotive under-hood and cabin modules. DF3D29FU,LXHF is intended for automotive use cases including infotainment, ADAS, and body control units.
What is the total capacitance of DF3D29FU,LXHF and why does it matter?
The DF3D29FU,LXHF has a maximum total capacitance of 9 pF at 0 V bias and 1 MHz. This low value is critical for preserving signal integrity on high-speed interfaces like USB 2.0 and CAN FD, where excessive capacitance causes rise-time degradation, jitter, and bit errors. DF3D29FU,LXHF's ≤9 pF enables placement directly at connectors without equalization or layout compensation.
Does DF3D29FU,LXHF support bidirectional ESD protection?
Yes, DF3D29FU,LXHF is a bidirectional ESD protection diode, with symmetrical clamping behavior on both pins relative to GND. Its structure allows identical ±25 kV IEC61000-4-2 contact ESD performance on either I/O terminal, making it ideal for differential signal pairs such as USB D+/D− or CANH/CANL without polarity concerns during PCB layout.
What package type does DF3D29FU,LXHF use and what are its dimensions?
DF3D29FU,LXHF uses the USM (Ultra Small Mold) package measuring 1.6 × 1.6 × 0.55 mm with a typical weight of 6.0 mg. This 3-pin surface-mount package features a compact footprint optimized for dense automotive PCBs and includes exposed pad thermal enhancement. The USM package is compatible with standard reflow profiles and automated optical inspection (AOI) processes.
