Product details
Overview
NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A from Renesas Electronics is a 2-pin ESD noise clipping diode designed for transient voltage suppression in external interface circuits. It features a breakdown voltage of 18.8–21.14 V, dynamic impedance ≤50 Ω at 5 mA, reverse leakage ≤2 μA at 15 V, capacitance of 34 pF at 0 V/1 MHz, and IEC61000-4-2-rated ESD protection up to ±30 kV - deployed in USB, HDMI, and audio jack protection paths.
For engineers reviewing the NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A datasheet, NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A pinout, NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A application, or NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin relative to protected IC's absolute maximum rating, low capacitance for high-speed signal integrity, surge power handling (85 W @ 10 μs), and SC-76 package compatibility with fine-pitch PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional Zener-type clamping diode optimized for electrostatic discharge immunity per IEC61000-4-2 Level 4 (±30 kV contact). Its low dynamic impedance ensures rapid voltage clamping during fast transients, while its 34 pF junction capacitance minimizes signal distortion on data lines up to ~300 Mbps.
The NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A is rated for 200 mW steady-state power dissipation on a standard 30 mm × 30 mm × 1.6 mm FR-4 PCB and withstands non-repetitive surge reverse power of 85 W at 10 μs pulse width - enabling robust protection without thermal runaway under typical ESD events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 18.8–21.14 V at 5 mA - defines minimum clamping threshold before conduction; must exceed system operating voltage by ≥20% to avoid false triggering |
| Dynamic Impedance (ZZ) | ≤50 Ω at 5 mA - determines voltage overshoot during ESD pulse; lower value yields tighter clamping |
| Reverse Leakage (IR) | ≤2 μA at 15 V - ensures negligible standby current draw in always-on interface circuits |
| Junction Capacitance (Ct) | 34 pF at 0 V, 1 MHz - limits bandwidth degradation; suitable for USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and analog audio lines |
| ESD Withstand (IEC61000-4-2) | ±30 kV contact discharge - meets industrial-grade immunity requirements for external ports |
| Surge Reverse Power (PRSM) | 85 W at tT = 10 μs - supports single-event energy absorption without failure |
| Package | SC-76 (2-pin Super Mini Mold) - 1.7 × 2.5 mm footprint with 0.9 mm pitch; compatible with automated SMT placement |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC-76 (2-pin Super Mini Mold), dimensions 1.7 ± 0.1 mm × 2.5 ± 0.15 mm × 1.25 ± 0.1 mm height, cathode indicated by marking band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input/Signal Line Connection | Connected to protected line (e.g., USB D+, HDMI TMDS+); conducts when voltage exceeds VBR |
| Cathode | Ground Reference Terminal | Connected to system ground plane; establishes clamping reference and provides return path for ESD current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| IEC61000-4-2 Level 4 Compliance | Guarantees ±30 kV contact / ±15 kV air discharge immunity without degradation - validated per international EMI test standard |
| Low Dynamic Impedance | ≤50 Ω enables sub-25 V clamping voltage during 8/20 μs surges - critical for protecting 3.3 V or 5 V logic interfaces |
| Ultra-Low Capacitance | 34 pF preserves signal integrity on high-speed digital and analog lines - avoids jitter or attenuation in USB/HDMI/audio paths |
| Pb-Free & RoHS Compliant | Pure Sn (tin) lead plating meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU - no lead in external electrodes or terminations |
| SC-76 Package Thermal Performance | 200 mW power dissipation on standard FR-4 PCB - sufficient for intermittent ESD events without heatsinking |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ESD9X3.3SFT5G (ON Semiconductor) | Lower VBR (3.3 V), higher Ct (110 pF), same SC-76 package | Better suited for 3.3 V logic rails; unsuitable for 5 V or analog lines due to excessive capacitance | Select only if protecting sub-3.3 V interfaces where clamping voltage margin is constrained |
| TPD2E001DRYR (Texas Instruments) | Dual-channel, 15 pF per line, 5.5 V VBR, same 2-pin equivalent per channel | Requires separate device per signal line; superior for multi-line protection but higher BOM count | Prefer when protecting two independent low-voltage signals simultaneously with minimal board area |
Compared with ESD9X3.3SFT5G and TPD2E001DRYR, the NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A offers higher voltage clamping headroom (18.8–21.14 V) and lower capacitance (34 pF), making it uniquely appropriate for 5 V-tolerant or mixed-signal interfaces where both ESD robustness and signal fidelity are required.

FAQ
What is the exact breakdown voltage range for NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A?
The NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A has a guaranteed breakdown voltage range of 18.8 V to 21.14 V at 5 mA test current, measured per JEDEC JESD22-A114 with 40 ms pulse. This range ensures reliable clamping above 5 V system rails while maintaining margin below 24 V absolute maximum ratings of common interface ICs. The specification is verified per Renesas datasheet D18879EJ2V0DS.
Does NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A support bidirectional ESD protection?
NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A is a unidirectional diode configured as a cathode-grounded Zener clamp. For bidirectional protection, two units must be used in series opposition (anode-to-anode or cathode-to-cathode) across the signal line and ground. The device itself does not provide symmetrical clamping without external configuration - confirmed in the "Sample Application Circuit" section of Renesas datasheet D18879EJ2V0DS.
What is the thermal resistance and maximum junction temperature of NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A?
NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A has a maximum junction temperature (Tj) of 150°C and is rated for 200 mW steady-state power dissipation when mounted on a 30 mm × 30 mm × 1.6 mm FR-4 PCB. Transient thermal impedance is 625°C/W at 1 ms (per Figure 4), indicating effective short-pulse heat dissipation. These values are specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of Renesas datasheet D18879EJ2V0DS.
Is NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A compliant with RoHS and lead-free manufacturing standards?
Yes, NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A uses pure Sn (tin) lead plating and contains no lead in external electrodes or other parts, satisfying EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. This compliance is explicitly stated in the "Ordering Information" section of Renesas datasheet D18879EJ2V0DS and confirmed by the "Pb-free" notation in the part numbering convention.
What is the ESD voltage rating and test standard for NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A?
NNCD20DA(91)-T1-A is rated for ±30 kV contact discharge and ±15 kV air discharge per IEC61000-4-2 (Level 4), verified using the 150 pF/330 Ω test network. This rating is documented in the "Electrical Characteristics" table under "ESD Voltage (kV)" and referenced in the Features and Applications sections of Renesas datasheet D18879EJ2V0DS.
