Product details
Overview
ESD7551N2T5G from onsemi is a bi-directional ultra-low-capacitance ESD protection diode in X2DFN2 package, featuring 0.35 pF max capacitance, 3.3 V stand-off voltage, and <1 ns response time - designed for high-frequency RF signal lines including USB 2.0 high-speed data and antenna interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the ESD7551N2T5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping voltage at 1 A (10 V), IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±25 kV contact) compliance, low dynamic resistance (<2 Ω), and suitability for space-constrained RF front-end protection.
Technical Context
The ESD7551N2T5G employs a silicon avalanche diode structure optimized for bi-directional transient suppression with symmetrical IV characteristics. Its low junction capacitance (0.25 pF typ @ 0 V, 1 MHz) and minimal parasitic inductance enable minimal signal distortion in GHz-range RF paths.
It meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±25 kV contact/air) and ISO 10605 (±30 kV, 150 pF/2 kΩ) standards, with clamping voltage specified at 10 V (IPP = 1 A) and 13 V (IPP = 3 A), ensuring robust protection without compromising RF integrity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Capacitance | 0.25 pF typical @ 0 V, 1 MHz - preserves signal integrity in USB 2.0 and 2.4 GHz antenna lines |
| Stand-off Voltage | 3.3 V - matches common I/O rail voltage, prevents leakage during normal operation |
| Clamping Voltage | 10 V @ 1 A IPP - limits transient overvoltage to safe levels for downstream RF ICs |
| ESD Rating | ±25 kV per IEC 61000-4-2 contact - exceeds industrial and portable device immunity requirements |
| Response Time | <1 ns - activates before sensitive circuitry sustains damage from fast ESD transients |
| Dynamic Resistance | 0.55 Ω typical - minimizes voltage overshoot during high-current ESD events |
Pinout & Package
ESD7551N2T5G uses the X2DFN2 (Case 714AB) surface-mount package: 1.00 mm × 0.60 mm × 0.37 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, wettable flank not applicable (standard variant). Cathode and anode terminals are arranged for compact bidirectional protection placement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode | Connected to protected line; forms one side of bi-directional clamping path |
| 2 | Anode | Connected to ground or reference plane; completes ESD current path during both polarity events |

Use Value: 0.65 mm pitch X2DFN2 footprint allows placement within 1 mm of RF pad, reducing stub inductance. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ESD9B5.0ST5G | Unidirectional, 5.0 V VRWM, 0.45 pF max capacitance | Requires separate cathode-to-rail and anode-to-ground routing; higher capacitance limits use above 200 MHz | Select when protecting unidirectional DC-biased lines (e.g., GPIO with pull-up) and cost sensitivity outweighs RF performance |
| CM1213A-03SR | Tri-state ESD array (3-line), 0.6 pF max per line, 3.3 V VRWM | Integrated 3-channel solution; larger 1.6 mm × 1.0 mm package increases layout area vs. single-line ESD7551N2T5G | Choose for multi-line protection (e.g., USB ID/VBUS/D+/D−) where shared ground and reduced component count justify added capacitance |
Compared with ESD9B5.0ST5G and CM1213A-03SR, the ESD7551N2T5G delivers the lowest capacitance (0.25 pF) and smallest footprint (1.0 mm × 0.6 mm) for discrete bi-directional RF line protection - critical for 2.4 GHz+ antenna and high-speed serial interfaces where parasitic loading must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of ESD7551N2T5G under IEC 61000-4-2 ESD stress?
The ESD7551N2T5G exhibits a clamping voltage of 10 V at 1 A peak pulse current (IPP), measured per IEC 61000-4-2 waveform conditions. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet (Rev. 4, Feb 2024) and represents the maximum voltage seen across the device during a standardized ESD event - critical for ensuring downstream ICs remain within absolute maximum ratings. The ESD7551N2T5G maintains this performance consistently across its operating temperature range.
Does ESD7551N2T5G support bi-directional ESD protection?
Yes, the ESD7551N2T5G is explicitly designed as a bi-directional ESD protection diode, with symmetrical breakdown behavior between pins 1 and 2. Its IV curves (Figures 5 and 6 in the datasheet) confirm identical clamping performance for both positive and negative transients - essential for protecting AC-coupled or floating RF lines like antenna feeds and USB differential pairs. This eliminates the need for polarity-aware placement during PCB layout.
What is the junction capacitance of ESD7551N2T5G at 1 GHz?
The junction capacitance of ESD7551N2T5G is 0.22 pF at 1 GHz and 0 V bias, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table (Rev. 4, Feb 2024). This ultra-low value - verified via CV characterization (Figure 4) - ensures minimal impact on signal integrity in 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and LTE bands. The ESD7551N2T5G maintains sub-0.25 pF capacitance up to 3 GHz, making it suitable for next-generation RF front-end protection.
Is ESD7551N2T5G RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, ESD7551N2T5G is Pb-free, halogen-free/BFR-free, and fully RoHS compliant, as stated in the Features section of the official datasheet. The "G" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes RoHS-compliant packaging. All manufacturing and plating processes for ESD7551N2T5G meet JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) requirements, supporting standard reflow profiles without special handling.
Can ESD7551N2T5G replace older ESD protection devices in existing USB 2.0 designs?
Yes, ESD7551N2T5G is a direct drop-in replacement for legacy ultra-low-capacitance ESD diodes in USB 2.0 designs due to its identical X2DFN2 footprint (1.00 mm × 0.60 mm), same pinout (pin 1 = cathode, pin 2 = anode), and improved specs: lower capacitance (0.25 pF vs. typical 0.4–0.6 pF), tighter clamping (10 V @ 1 A), and enhanced IEC 61000-4-2 rating (±25 kV). No PCB changes are required when upgrading to ESD7551N2T5G.
