Product details
Overview
GX3202-CBE3 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, 20mΩ dynamic resistance, and 175pF junction capacitance - deployed in USB PD and Type-C load switch input protection.
For engineers reviewing the GX3202-CBE3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping stability across temperature and current, low dynamic resistance for flat VC response, DFN-6 package layout constraints, and compatibility with 22V bus systems requiring robust industrial-grade surge immunity.
Technical Context
The GX3202-CBE3 uses a surge-rated FET as its primary protection element, activated by a precision trigger circuit that senses overvoltage events and rapidly shunts transient current to ground. Unlike conventional TVS diodes, its clamping voltage remains nearly constant across 24–40A peak pulse current due to decreasing RDS(on) under surge conditions.
It operates from −40°C to +125°C with stable 27.5–28V clamping at 40A (1.2/50μs voltage + 8/20μs current combination waveform, RS = 2Ω), reverse stand-off voltage of 22V, breakdown voltage of 25–27.9V, and reverse leakage <600nA at 22V - enabling reliable protection in thermally demanding USB PD and industrial power rail applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22V - defines maximum continuous DC operating voltage on protected line without leakage or conduction. |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28V at 40A - ensures downstream 24V-rated ICs (e.g., USB PD controllers, load switches) remain below damage threshold during surge. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40A (8/20μs) - meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity for industrial equipment and USB PD interfaces. |
| ESD Withstand | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds smartphone/tablet and industrial port-level ESD requirements. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20mΩ - enables flat clamping curve; VC rises only ~0.5V from 24A to 40A, unlike TVS diodes with linear VC = VBR + IPP×RDYN. |
| Junction Capacitance | 175pF at 22V, 1MHz - suitable for DC power rails and low-speed I/O; not intended for >100MHz signal lines. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm, 6-lead, RoHS-compliant, UL 94V-0 molding compound, lead-free finish, tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 units/reel).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground connection; all three pins must be connected to PCB ground plane via low-inductance path for full 40A surge capability. |
| 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input; connects directly to VBus or power rail; all three pins must be shorted together on PCB for uniform current sharing and minimal parasitic inductance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-clamp architecture | FET-based shunt delivers <0.5V VC variation from 24A to 40A - eliminates design margin inflation required with TVS diodes. |
| Temperature-stable clamping | VC remains 27.5–28V from −40°C to +125°C - removes thermal derating calculations needed for conventional TVS devices. |
| High-energy surge handling | 1120W peak pulse power (8/20μs) supports repeated lightning-surge events in industrial and outdoor IoT deployments. |
| Low-leakage protection | Max 600nA reverse leakage at 22V - avoids battery drain in always-on USB-C accessories and remote sensors. |
Applications
| USB Type-C Power Delivery Bus Protection | Industrial Load Switch Input Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 20–22V VBus lines in USB-C PD ports against ESD, lightning-induced surges, and hot-plug transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary EOS suppressor placed between connector and PD controller/load switch, clamping transients before they reach sensitive silicon. 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 terminals of industrial-grade load switches (e.g., HS2950P) in robotics, smart meters, and factory automation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end transient shunt that limits voltage stress on internal FET gate oxide and drain-source junction during surge events. Use Value: 40A surge rating and 20mΩ RDYN prevent latch-up or permanent failure of load switches rated for ≤30V absolute max input. |
| IoT Edge Device Power Rail Protection | Notebook/Tablet DC Power Input Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing 12–24V DC input rails of battery-powered IoT gateways exposed to ESD during field servicing or cable coupling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone transient diverter placed at board edge, upstream of DC-DC converters and PMICs. Use Value: ±30kV ESD immunity and 175pF capacitance avoid signal integrity impact while enabling compact 1.6×1.6mm layout footprint. | Use Scenario: Protecting 20V adapter-input rails in ultrabooks and tablets where space and thermal performance are critical. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-reliability clamping device replacing larger multi-chip TVS arrays, reducing BOM count and PCB area. Use Value: Stable 28V clamping at 125°C eliminates need for oversized thermal pads or derated surge ratings in thin-profile chassis. |
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 (T22XX), same reel quantity (3,000). | No functional difference; TDS2211P.C is Semtech's official orderable part number for this device. | Select TDS2211P.C when sourcing directly from Semtech or authorized distributors for guaranteed traceability and lifecycle support. |
| SP1003-02HTG | 30V working voltage, 30A IPP (8/20μs), 33V clamping, SOD-323 package - higher VC, lower surge rating, smaller footprint but no multi-pin parallel input. | Less suitable for 22V USB PD buses requiring 40A surge margin; better for space-constrained 3.3–5V data lines. | Choose SP1003-02HTG only for lower-voltage, lower-energy applications where 1.6×1.6mm DFN is unavailable or cost-sensitive. |
Compared with TDS2211P.C (identical spec twin) and SP1003-02HTG (lower-energy alternative), GX3202-CBE3 delivers verified 40A/22V performance in a thermally robust DFN-6 layout - making it the optimal choice for industrial USB PD and load switch protection where clamping stability and surge margin are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the exact package type and dimensions of GX3202-CBE3?
GX3202-CBE3 uses a DFN package measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm with 6 leads. Pins 1–3 are GND; pins 4–6 are IN. The package is RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and UL 94V-0 rated. Land pattern and outline drawings are published in Semtech's official datasheet Rev 2.5.
Does GX3202-CBE3 meet IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity standards?
Yes, GX3202-CBE3 is rated for 40A peak pulse current per IEC 61000-4-5 (8/20μs waveform) and supports ±1kV combination wave (1.2/50μs voltage + 8/20μs current, RS = 42Ω) for unsymmetrical lines - fulfilling Level 4 industrial surge requirements.
How does GX3202-CBE3 differ from standard TVS diodes in clamping behavior?
GX3202-CBE3 uses a triggered FET shunt instead of a pn-junction, resulting in near-constant clamping voltage (27.5–28V) from 24A to 40A and across −40°C to +125°C. Standard TVS diodes exhibit linear VC rise with current and temperature due to fixed dynamic resistance.
Can GX3202-CBE3 be used on high-speed data lines like USB SuperSpeed or PCIe?
No - GX3202-CBE3 has 175pF junction capacitance, optimized for DC power rails and low-speed I/O. For USB SS, DP/DM, or PCIe lanes, Semtech recommends low-capacitance devices like RClamp3371ZC (<0.25pF); GX3202-CBE3 is not suitable for signal integrity-critical paths.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for GX3202-CBE3?
GX3202-CBE3 is specified for continuous operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. Its clamping voltage remains stable within 27.5–28V across this full range at 40A, and junction temperature is rated up to +150°C.
