Product details
Overview
GS6152-INTE3 from Semtech is a Transient Diverting Suppressor (TDS) designed for high-energy EOS protection of 22V-rated power or I/O lines, featuring ±30kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity, 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs), 27.5–28V clamping voltage at 40A, and ultra-low 20mΩ dynamic resistance. It protects USB PD, USB Type-C VBus, and load switch inputs in industrial and portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the GS6152-INTE3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical specs, DFN-6 package layout guidance, temperature-stable clamping behavior, and direct alternatives for EOS-critical 22V bus protection.
Technical Context
The GS6152-INTE3 uses a surge-rated FET as its primary protection element, activated by a precision trigger circuit that turns on the shunt path when transient voltage exceeds breakdown. Unlike conventional TVS diodes, its clamping voltage remains nearly constant across 0–40A (8/20μs) due to decreasing RDS(on) under surge conditions.
It operates from –40°C to +125°C with stable 27.5–28V clamping at 40A, 22V reverse stand-off, and 27.9V typical breakdown - all guaranteed over temperature. Its 175pF junction capacitance at 22V/1MHz and 600nA max leakage support high-speed bus integrity without signal distortion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22V - matches nominal USB PD VBus and industrial 24V rail derating margins. |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28V at 40A (8/20μs) - stays below 30V damage threshold of most 30V-rated load switches and PD controllers. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40A (8/20μs) - satisfies IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity (±1kV, RS = 42Ω) for industrial equipment. |
| ESD Withstand | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds USB IF and IEC 61000-4-2 Class 4 requirements. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20mΩ - enables low-voltage overshoot during fast transients, critical for protecting sensitive gate drivers. |
| Junction Capacitance | 175pF at 22V/1MHz - low enough to avoid signal integrity degradation on 20V DC power rails. |
Pinout & Package
GS6152-INTE3 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, halogen-free DFN-6 package measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm with exposed thermal pad (no solder mask defined). All six terminals must be connected per layout guidelines to achieve rated 40A surge performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pins 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground return path - must be tied together and connected via multiple vias to internal ground plane for minimal inductance. |
| Pins 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input - connects directly to VBus or power rail; all three pins conduct surge current in parallel to maximize current sharing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-clamp architecture | Clamping voltage varies ≤0.5V across full 0–40A surge range - eliminates design margin inflation needed with TVS diodes. |
| Temperature-stable protection | Clamping remains 27.5–28V from –40°C to +125°C - ensures consistent protection in automotive under-hood or industrial enclosures. |
| Low dynamic resistance | 20mΩ enables <1V overshoot during 10A/μs dI/dt events - critical for guarding MOSFET gates and e-fuse ICs. |
| High-energy handling | 1120W peak pulse power rating supports repeated lightning-surge testing per IEC 61000-4-5 without degradation. |
Applications
| USB Type-C Power Delivery Bus Protection | Industrial Load Switch Input Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 20V–22V VBus lines in USB-C PD ports against ESD, lightning surges, and hot-plug transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary EOS shunt protector placed between connector and PD controller/load switch. Use Value: Maintains 27.5–28V clamping across temperature and current - prevents false OVP trips and ensures PD controller survival at 125°C ambient. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding input pins of high-side load switches (e.g., HS2950P) in remote meters, robotics, and IoT hubs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end transient diverter that limits voltage stress on the switch's internal FET during surge events. Use Value: Keeps clamping voltage below 30V - avoids gate oxide rupture and latch-up in 30V-rated load switches during 40A surges. |
| 22V Industrial Power Rail Protection | Notebook/Tablet DC Power Input Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing 22V auxiliary rails in programmable logic controllers, motor drives, and factory automation systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone EOS suppressor on main DC input before DC-DC converters and microcontrollers. Use Value: Delivers 40A surge capability with 1120W peak power handling - meets EN 61000-4-5 Level 4 compliance without external heatsinking. |
Use Scenario: Protecting 20V DC-in ports on ultrabooks and tablets against accidental adapter misconnection and ESD. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Compact, low-profile shunt device mounted adjacent to barrel jack or USB-C port. Use Value: 1.6mm × 1.6mm footprint saves >60% board area vs. SOD-123 TVS solutions - enables thinner end-product designs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDS2211P.C | Identical electrical specs, same DFN-6 package, identical marking code T22 - direct Semtech-recommended replacement. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in USB-C and industrial designs per Semtech documentation. | Select TDS2211P.C when sourcing from authorized Semtech distributors with full traceability and date-code visibility. |
| uClamp2411ZA | 24V working voltage, lower 20A IPP rating, higher 33V clamping at 20A, and 0.25pF capacitance optimized for CC/SBU lines - not suitable for 22V power rail protection. | Designed for low-capacitance data-line protection (CC/SBU), not power-line surge suppression. | Use uClamp2411ZA only for USB-C configuration channel protection - not a functional substitute for GS6152-INTE3 in VBus applications. |
Compared with TDS2211P.C, GS6152-INTE3 offers identical protection performance and drop-in compatibility; versus uClamp2411ZA, it delivers 2× peak current capacity and 5V lower clamping - making it the sole validated choice for 22V power-line EOS hardening.

FAQ
What is the exact package type and dimensions of GS6152-INTE3?
GS6152-INTE3 uses a 6-pin DFN package measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is marked by a laser dot; pins 1–3 are GND, pins 4–6 are IN. The land pattern follows Semtech's recommended layout with multiple vias to ground for optimal surge conduction. This compact footprint enables high-density PCB designs without compromising surge rating.
Does GS6152-INTE3 meet IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity?
Yes, GS6152-INTE3 is rated for 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs), which exceeds the ±1kV (RS = 42Ω) requirement of IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4. Its 27.5–28V clamping voltage at 40A ensures protected downstream components remain within safe operating voltage limits during full-level surges - confirmed in Semtech's TDS2211P datasheet Rev 2.5.
How does GS6152-INTE3 differ from standard TVS diodes in clamping behavior?
Unlike standard TVS diodes whose clamping voltage rises linearly with peak current (VC = VBR + IPP × RDYN), GS6152-INTE3 maintains near-constant clamping (27.5–28V) from 0 to 40A due to its FET-based shunt architecture. This eliminates the need for oversized TVS devices to meet low-clamp targets - a key advantage documented in the TDS2211P functional comparison diagrams.
Can GS6152-INTE3 be used for USB Type-C VBus protection alongside RClamp3371ZC?
Yes - GS6152-INTE3 is explicitly recommended in Semtech's USB Type-C protection reference design (Figure 4) for VBus line protection, while RClamp3371ZC handles low-capacitance SuperSpeed lanes. GS6152-INTE3 provides the high-current, low-clamp front-end defense required for 20–22V VBus, complementing RClamp3371ZC's 0.25pF signal-line protection without interaction.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for GS6152-INTE3?
GS6152-INTE3 is specified for continuous operation from –40°C to +125°C ambient. Its clamping voltage remains stable across this full range (27.5–28V at 40A), and junction temperature can reach +150°C. This makes GS6152-INTE3 suitable for under-hood automotive modules, industrial PLCs, and thermally constrained portable devices where conventional TVS performance degrades significantly above 85°C.
