Product details
Overview
ECMF02-2BF3 from STMicroelectronics is a dual-line integrated common mode filter with ESD protection for high-speed differential serial interfaces, featuring >5 GHz differential bandwidth, -23 dB common-mode attenuation at 900 MHz, and ±15 kV air-discharge ESD robustness. It filters one differential lane in MIPI D-PHY, USB2.0, MDDI, or HDMI applications while occupying <1.1 mm² PCB area.
For engineers reviewing the ECMF02-2BF3 datasheet, ECMF02-2BF3 pinout, ECMF02-2BF3 application, or ECMF02-2BF3 equivalent, key selection criteria include common-mode rejection bandwidth (800 MHz–2.2 GHz), ultra-low parasitic integration, flip-chip bump layout compatibility, and IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD rating for high-reliability interface protection.
Technical Context
The device integrates two matched LC sections per differential line to suppress common-mode noise without degrading differential signal integrity. Its flip-chip construction with five bumps minimizes bond wire inductance and package capacitance, enabling operation beyond 5 GHz differential bandwidth.
Common-mode attenuation exceeds -20 dB across 800 MHz–2.2 GHz and reaches -23 dB at 900 MHz, directly supporting EMI compliance in compact mobile interface designs. The monolithic IPAD™ structure replaces discrete ferrite beads and capacitors while maintaining low insertion loss for differential signals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Differential bandwidth | >5 GHz - preserves signal integrity for USB2.0 (480 Mbps), MIPI D-PHY (up to 1 Gbps), and HDMI TMDS lanes. |
| Common-mode attenuation | -23 dB at 900 MHz - suppresses RF interference coupling into shared ground paths in handheld PCBs. |
| ESD rating (IEC 61000-4-2) | ±15 kV air, ±8 kV contact - protects interface pins against user-handling and system-level ESD events. |
| Package footprint | <1.1 mm² - enables placement adjacent to connectors or SoC BGA pads in space-constrained mobile modules. |
| Max height after reflow | 0.50 mm - compatible with thin-profile stacking and shield-can clearance requirements. |
| Construction | Flip-chip with 5 bumps - eliminates bond wires to reduce parasitic inductance and improve high-frequency common-mode rejection. |
Pinout & Package
ECMF02-2BF3 uses a lead-free, ultra-thin flip-chip package with five solder bumps on the bottom side. The package measures 0.85 mm × 1.30 mm × 0.50 mm (L×W×H max) and is designed for reflow-only assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN1) | Differential input positive | Accepts high-speed differential signal positive leg (e.g., USB DP, MIPI D+). |
| 2 (IN2) | Differential input negative | Accepts high-speed differential signal negative leg (e.g., USB DM, MIPI D−). |
| A (GND) | Common reference plane | Provides low-inductance return path for common-mode current and ESD discharge. |
| B (OUT1) | Differential output positive | Delivers filtered differential signal positive leg to downstream receiver (e.g., SoC PHY). |
| C (OUT2) | Differential output negative | Delivers filtered differential signal negative leg to downstream receiver with matched delay and impedance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated common-mode choke + ESD diode array | Replaces ≥4 discrete components (two ferrite beads + two TVS diodes), reducing layout complexity and board area. |
| Ultra-low parasitic design | Flip-chip bump interconnects limit self-inductance to <0.3 nH and inter-pin capacitance to <0.1 pF per path. |
| High common-mode rejection over wide band | Maintains >20 dB attenuation from 800 MHz to 2.2 GHz - critical for LTE/Wi-Fi coexistence in smartphone RF front-end proximity. |
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant | Meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) and Pb-free reflow profile requirements. |
Applications
| Mobile Camera Interface | USB2.0 Host Port Protection |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by ECMF02-2BF3?
The ECMF02-2BF3 supports differential signaling up to 480 Mbps (USB2.0 full-speed), 1 Gbps (MIPI D-PHY HS mode), and 1.65 Gbps (HDMI TMDS), validated by its >5 GHz differential bandwidth and <0.5 dB insertion loss at 2.5 GHz. Its performance is specified for use with NRZ-encoded high-speed serial protocols without equalization.
Can ECMF02-2BF3 be used for differential pairs other than USB or MIPI?
Yes - it is applicable to any high-speed differential interface operating below 2.5 GHz where common-mode noise suppression and ±15 kV ESD protection are required, including LVDS, sub-LVDS, and proprietary serdes links. Layout must maintain controlled 100 Ω differential impedance and minimize stub length to preserve signal integrity.
How does the flip-chip construction affect PCB layout?
The 5-bump flip-chip design requires precise stencil aperture definition and solder paste volume control to ensure uniform bump wetting. Recommended land pattern follows ST's AN4195 guidelines: 0.35 mm diameter circular pads with 0.5 mm pitch, no solder mask defined, and thermal relief isolation on GND pad to prevent tombstoning during reflow.
Is ECMF02-2BF3 compliant with automotive AEC-Q200?
No - ECMF02-2BF3 is not qualified to AEC-Q200. It is rated for commercial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and intended for consumer and industrial portable equipment. For automotive infotainment or ADAS camera links, ST recommends the AEC-Q200-qualified ECMF02-2AMX2 or ECMF04-2AMX2 variants with extended temperature and vibration testing.
