Product details
Overview
TDS2211P from Semtech is a transient diverting suppressor designed to protect 22V-rated I/O or power lines against high-energy electrical overstress (EOS), ESD, and surge events in USB Type-C, USB PD, and industrial load-switch interfaces. It delivers ±30kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD protection, 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs), constant 27.5–28V clamping across 24–40A, 20mΩ dynamic resistance, and 175pF junction capacitance at 22V.
For engineers reviewing the TDS2211P datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping voltage stability over temperature and current, low dynamic resistance for minimal voltage overshoot, DFN-6 footprint compatibility with high-density USB PD layouts, and verified performance in combination-wave (1.2/50μs + 8/20μs) surge testing per IEC 61000-4-5.
Technical Context
The TDS2211P uses a surge-rated FET as its primary protection element, activated by a precision trigger circuit when transient voltage exceeds breakdown. Unlike conventional TVS diodes, its clamping voltage remains nearly constant-27.5–28V-across 24–40A and −40°C to +125°C due to decreasing RDS(on) under surge conditions.
It operates as a shunt device between protected line (pins 4–6) and ground (pins 1–3), with a 22V reverse stand-off voltage and 25–27.9V breakdown. Its 20mΩ dynamic resistance and 175pF capacitance at 22V enable robust protection without signal integrity degradation on high-speed or power-bus applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22V - defines maximum continuous DC operating voltage of protected line without leakage or conduction. |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28V at 24–40A (1.2/50μs + 8/20μs combo wave) - ensures downstream ICs (e.g., USB PD controllers) remain below damage threshold during surge. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40A (8/20μs) - meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 industrial surge immunity requirements with 2Ω source impedance. |
| ESD Withstand | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds automotive and industrial ESD immunity standards for connector-facing protection. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20mΩ - minimizes voltage rise (ΔV = IPP × RDYN) during surge, enabling tighter clamping than TVS diodes. |
| Junction Capacitance | 175pF at 22V, 1MHz - low enough for USB PD VBUS protection without affecting power delivery regulation loop stability. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN-6 (1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm), RoHS-compliant, Pb-free, UL 94V-0 molding compound, tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 units/reel).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pins 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground return path for surge current; all three must be connected to maximize current handling and minimize parasitic inductance. |
| Pins 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input (e.g., USB PD VBUS); parallel connection ensures uniform current sharing and optimal 40A capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant clamping voltage | 27.5–28V across full 24–40A range and −40°C to +125°C - eliminates derating uncertainty in thermal or high-current environments. |
| FET-based shunt architecture | Surge-rated MOSFET + precision trigger circuit - replaces fixed-RDYN TVS with active clamping that improves as current rises. |
| Low dynamic resistance | 20mΩ - reduces clamping overshoot by >50% vs. typical 100–200mΩ TVS devices at 40A, protecting sensitive load switches. |
| High-energy surge rating | 1120W peak pulse power (8/20μs) - supports repeated surge events in industrial equipment and remote metering without degradation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ22A | Standard unidirectional TVS diode; 22V VRWM, 35.5V VC @ 12.3A (8/20μs), higher RDYN (~150mΩ), no clamping stability over temperature. | Higher clamping voltage limits use in 22V systems with tight margin; requires derating above 85°C. | Select SMAJ22A only if cost sensitivity outweighs clamping performance and thermal stability requirements. |
| TPD2E007DBVR | Low-capacitance (1.5pF) dual-channel ESD protector; 22V VRWM, 12A IPP, not rated for IEC 61000-4-5 surge. | Designed for high-speed data lines (e.g., USB 2.0 D+/D−), not power bus protection. | Use TPD2E007DBVR for DP/DM or CC line ESD only; TDS2211P remains required for VBUS and load-switch inputs. |
Compared with SMAJ22A and TPD2E007DBVR, the TDS2211P uniquely combines 40A surge capability, 27.5–28V flat clamping, and 20mΩ dynamic resistance-making it the only option qualified for 22V power-line protection in USB PD and industrial load-switch designs requiring IEC 61000-4-5 compliance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous operating voltage for the TDS2211P?
The TDS2211P has a reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM) of 22V, meaning it can continuously block up to 22V DC without significant leakage or conduction. This makes it suitable for protecting 20V USB PD VBUS lines and other 22V-rated power rails. Exceeding this voltage risks premature triggering or accelerated degradation of the TDS2211P.
How does the TDS2211P achieve constant clamping voltage across varying surge currents?
The TDS2211P uses a surge-rated FET activated by a precision trigger circuit. As surge current increases, the FET's RDS(on) decreases, counteracting the I×R voltage rise. This results in stable clamping-27.5–28V-from 24A to 40A (8/20μs), unlike TVS diodes whose clamping rises linearly with current. The TDS2211P maintains this behavior from −40°C to +125°C.
Can the TDS2211P replace a standard TVS diode in an existing 22V protection design?
Yes, the TDS2211P can replace a standard TVS diode in 22V applications-but only if the PCB layout accommodates its 6-pin DFN package and all pins (1–3 GND, 4–6 IN) are properly connected. Its lower clamping voltage (27.5–28V vs. ~35–40V for TVS) may require revalidation of downstream component margins, but improves overall system robustness. The TDS2211P is not pin-compatible with 2-pin SOD or SMA packages.
What is the significance of the 20mΩ dynamic resistance specification for the TDS2211P?
The 20mΩ dynamic resistance (RDYN) means the TDS2211P adds minimal voltage overshoot during surge events-ΔV ≈ 40A × 0.02Ω = 0.8V-compared to TVS diodes with 100–200mΩ RDYN. This enables tighter clamping control, protects sensitive load switches from gate-oxide stress, and avoids false overvoltage trips in PMICs. The value is measured between 1A and 40A using 8/20μs pulses.
Is the TDS2211P suitable for protecting high-speed data lines like USB 3.x or PCIe?
No, the TDS2211P is not suitable for high-speed data lines. Its 175pF junction capacitance at 22V is optimized for power-bus protection-not signal integrity. For USB 3.x, Thunderbolt, or PCIe lanes, low-capacitance ESD protectors like RClamp3371ZC (<0.25pF) are required. The TDS2211P is intended exclusively for VBUS, CC, SBU, and load-switch input protection where bandwidth is not critical.
