Product details
Overview
DF5G6M4N,LF from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is an ESD protection diode designed for 5 V signal lines in mobile device interfaces. It delivers ±20 kV IEC61000-4-2 contact/air ESD immunity, 0.2 pF typical capacitance, 0.8 Ω dynamic resistance, and 10 V clamping voltage at 2 A, enabling robust protection of high-speed USB, HDMI, and audio interfaces in smartphones and tablets.
For engineers reviewing the DF5G6M4N,LF datasheet, DF5G6M4N,LF pinout, DF5G6M4N,LF application, or DF5G6M4N,LF equivalent, key selection criteria include low-capacitance signal integrity preservation, snapback-based low-clamp performance, multibit flow-through layout compatibility, and DFN5 package integration for space-constrained PCBs.
Technical Context
The DF5G6M4N,LF employs silicon epitaxial planar technology with snapback-triggered TVS operation to achieve low dynamic resistance (0.8 Ω typ.) and stable clamping (10 V @ 2 A). Its multibit architecture integrates four I/O channels sharing a common GND terminal in a single DFN5 package.
Designed specifically for electrostatic discharge suppression-not voltage regulation-it operates within a 5.5 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) and supports transient pulse handling per IEC61000-4-2 (±20 kV) and IEC61000-4-5 (8/20 µs, 30 W).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 5.5 V maximum - ensures safe operation on 5 V signal rails without leakage or false triggering |
| Ct | 0.2 pF typical - preserves signal integrity for high-speed interfaces up to 1 GHz |
| RDYN | 0.8 Ω typical - minimizes voltage overshoot during ESD events by limiting IR drop |
| VESD | ±20 kV (IEC61000-4-2 Contact/Air) - meets highest industrial ESD immunity requirements |
| VC @ IPP=2 A | 10 V typical - clamps transients below IC damage thresholds for protected SoCs and PMICs |
| Package | DFN5 (1.3 mm × 0.8 mm) - enables ultra-compact placement adjacent to connectors and ICs |
Pinout & Package
DF5G6M4N,LF uses a 5-pin DFN5 surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected), measuring 1.3 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.4 mm (typ.). The flow-through layout simplifies PCB routing with input/output pins aligned linearly across the package body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | I/O Channel A | ESD-protected bidirectional signal line (e.g., USB D+) |
| 2 | GND | Common reference and transient return path for all channels |
| 3 | I/O Channel B | ESD-protected bidirectional signal line (e.g., USB D−) |
| 4 | I/O Channel C | ESD-protected bidirectional signal line (e.g., HDMI TMDS+) |
| 5 | I/O Channel D | ESD-protected bidirectional signal line (e.g., HDMI TMDS−) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Multibit flow-through configuration | Four independent I/O channels with shared GND enable straight-line PCB trace routing and reduce loop inductance |
| Snapback-triggered clamping | Enables sub-10 V clamping at 2 A while maintaining low dynamic resistance for fast transient suppression |
| Ultra-low 0.2 pF capacitance | Minimizes signal distortion and insertion loss on high-speed differential pairs (e.g., USB 2.0, HDMI 1.4) |
| ±20 kV IEC61000-4-2 ESD rating | Exceeds Level 4 immunity requirements for handheld consumer electronics without derating |

FAQ
What is the maximum working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) specification for DF5G6M4N,LF?
The DF5G6M4N,LF has a VRWM of 5.5 V maximum, meaning it reliably blocks reverse voltages up to this level under normal operating conditions. This rating ensures compatibility with standard 5 V signal rails while preventing premature conduction or leakage. The DF5G6M4N,LF maintains low reverse current (<0.1 µA at 5.5 V) and stable clamping behavior only when triggered by ESD events exceeding its breakdown threshold.
Does DF5G6M4N,LF support IEC61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD immunity?
Yes, the DF5G6M4N,LF is rated for ±20 kV contact and ±20 kV air discharge per IEC61000-4-2, which exceeds Level 4 requirements (±15 kV contact / ±15 kV air). This performance is verified through standardized testing and reflects the device's snapback-triggered TVS architecture. The DF5G6M4N,LF achieves this without external bias or control circuitry, operating autonomously during transient events.
How many signal lines does DF5G6M4N,LF protect, and what is its pin configuration?
The DF5G6M4N,LF protects four independent signal lines using a 5-pin configuration: pins 1, 3, 4, and 5 serve as I/O terminals for separate channels, while pin 2 is the shared GND terminal. This flow-through arrangement aligns inputs and outputs linearly to simplify PCB layout. The DF5G6M4N,LF does not require channel-specific grounding or decoupling capacitors due to its monolithic structure.
What is the typical dynamic resistance (RDYN) of DF5G6M4N,LF, and why does it matter?
The DF5G6M4N,LF exhibits a typical dynamic resistance of 0.8 Ω, measured via TLP analysis between 8 A and 16 A. This low RDYN minimizes the voltage overshoot (ΔV = RDYN × IPP) during fast ESD pulses, ensuring clamped voltage stays near 10 V at 2 A. For the DF5G6M4N,LF, this directly translates to reliable protection of sensitive 1.8 V/3.3 V I/O cells without overstress.
Is DF5G6M4N,LF compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, the DF5G6M4N,LF is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020, supporting peak temperatures up to 260 °C. Its DFN5 package features matte tin plating and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The DF5G6M4N,LF's thermal performance remains stable across standard reflow profiles, with no degradation in ESD parameters or leakage characteristics post-assembly.
