Product details
Overview
NUP2125WTT3G from onsemi is a dual-line bidirectional ESD protection diode in SC-70 (SOT-323) package, designed specifically for automotive CAN and LIN bus transceivers. It provides 27 V working peak reverse voltage, 200 W peak power dissipation per line (8/20 µs), and clamps ±8 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD events to ≤42 V at 4 A TLP current.
For engineers reviewing the NUP2125WTT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device delivers verified AEC-Q101 qualification, matched diode capacitance (<2% mismatch), low leakage (<100 nA @ 24 V), and ISO 7637-3 EFT surge immunity - critical for robust automotive network interface design.
Technical Context
The NUP2125WTT3G integrates two identical bidirectional TVS diodes in a single SC-70 package, enabling symmetrical clamping on both CAN_H and CAN_L or LIN lines. Its breakdown voltage is 27–32 V (min–max @ 1 mA), with dynamic resistance of 0.94 Ω measured via TLP.
It supports full IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±30 kV air/±30 kV contact), IEC 61000-4-4 (50 A EFT), and ISO 7637-1/3 surge standards. Capacitance is 4.5–6.0 pF per line at 5 V DC and 1 MHz, with <0.26% matching between lines - essential for high-speed signal integrity in CAN-FD and LIN systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 24 V - ensures safe operation above nominal 12 V automotive supply with margin against ripple and transients |
| VBR (min) | 27 V @ 1 mA - defines precise turn-on threshold for reliable overvoltage clamping before transceiver damage |
| VC @ 4 A TLP | 42 V - clamping voltage under fast transient stress, directly limiting voltage seen by CAN/LIN IC pins |
| CJ @ 5 V / 1 MHz | 4.5–6.0 pF per line - low, tightly matched capacitance preserves signal rise/fall times in >500 kbps CAN-FD |
| IR @ VRWM | <100 nA - negligible leakage avoids bias shift or false triggering in high-impedance LIN receiver inputs |
| PPK per line | 200 W (8/20 µs) - sustains high-energy surges without degradation, validated per ISO 7637-3 repetitive EFT |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact - exceeds automotive OEM requirements for system-level ESD immunity |
Pinout & Package
SC-70 (SOT-323) package, 3-pin, Pb-free, moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1). Compact 2.2 mm × 2.2 mm footprint with 0.65 mm pitch enables dense placement near connectors or transceivers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Cathode (Line 1) | Connects to protected signal line (e.g., CAN_H); forms one half of bidirectional clamp path |
| Pin 2 | Cathode (Line 2) | Connects to second protected signal line (e.g., CAN_L or LIN); matched capacitance ensures balanced response |
| Pin 3 | Anode (Common) | Shared ground reference; enables compact dual-line protection without discrete grounding paths |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional clamping | Protects both positive and negative transients on CAN_H/CAN_L or LIN without polarity constraints |

| IEC/ISO-compliant surge handling | Meets IEC 61000-4-2/4-4/4-5 and ISO 7637-1/3 - eliminates need for external filtering in Tier-1 designs |
| Low insertion loss | −8.7 dB @ 1 GHz - minimal RF attenuation preserves EMC performance in high-frequency vehicle networks |
Applications
| Automotive CAN Bus Protection | Automotive LIN Bus Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting high-speed CAN transceivers (e.g., TJA1042, SN65HVD256) in engine control units against ESD during service and ISO 7637-3 EFT pulses during battery load dump. IC Role / Device Role: Dual-line bidirectional TVS array placed between connector and transceiver, clamping transients before they reach IC pins. Use Value: Enables compliance with OEM ESD test plans (e.g., GMW3172, Ford ES-XW7T-1A278-AC) without adding board area or BOM cost. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding LIN slave nodes (e.g., window lift modules, seat position sensors) from cable coupling noise and human-body ESD during assembly or field maintenance. IC Role / Device Role: Single-device dual-line protector for LIN bus, replacing discrete diodes while maintaining <6 pF per line. Use Value: Reduces component count by 50% vs. discrete solutions and ensures <100 nA leakage does not disrupt LIN master pull-up bias. |
| Fault-Tolerant CAN Networks | CAN-FD Data Link Layer Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing fault-tolerant CAN physical layer (SAE J2284-4) in body control modules where bus must remain operational after single-wire short-to-battery or ground. IC Role / Device Role: Bidirectional clamp on both CAN_H and CAN_L lines, referenced to common anode, preserving differential signaling integrity. Use Value: Maintains <2% capacitance match to prevent common-mode imbalance that could trigger fault detection falsely. |
Use Scenario: Protecting 2 Mbps CAN-FD communication links in ADAS domain controllers where signal edge fidelity is critical for error-free arbitration and data phase timing. IC Role / Device Role: Low-capacitance ESD array placed immediately at connector entry point to minimize stub length and preserve impedance continuity. Use Value: 4.5–6.0 pF capacitance and −8.7 dB insertion loss @ 1 GHz ensure <5% signal rise-time degradation at 2 Mbps. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPD2E001DRYR | Single-channel, 5.5 V VRWM, 12 pF typical capacitance - higher capacitance, lower voltage rating | Targeted at USB/low-voltage digital interfaces, not automotive bus-rated | Select only for non-automotive 3.3 V systems requiring ultra-low clamping; not suitable for CAN/LIN 12 V bus |
| ESDA6V1SC6 | Dual-line, 6.1 V VRWM, 30 pF capacitance - optimized for 5 V logic, not 24 V bus systems | Designed for industrial I/O and sensor interfaces, lacks AEC-Q101 and ISO 7637 validation | Use only in non-automotive 5 V applications; insufficient VRWM and surge rating for CAN/LIN bus protection |
Compared with TPD2E001DRYR and ESDA6V1SC6, the NUP2125WTT3G uniquely combines 24 V VRWM, AEC-Q101 qualification, and sub-6 pF matched capacitance - making it the only option qualified for production automotive CAN and LIN bus protection without derating or redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the NUP2125WTT3G under IEC 61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact discharge?
The NUP2125WTT3G clamps to ≤42 V when subjected to IEC 61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact discharge, measured using TLP at 4 A pulse current. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table (page 2 of the datasheet) and ensures safe voltage levels for CAN transceivers rated to 40 V absolute maximum. The NUP2125WTT3G achieves this with low dynamic resistance (0.94 Ω) and matched diode structure.
Is the NUP2125WTT3G qualified for automotive use per AEC-Q101?
Yes, the NUP2125WTT3G carries the SZ prefix (SZNUP2125WTT3G*), confirming its AEC-Q101 qualification and PPAP capability. It operates across the full automotive junction temperature range (−55 °C to +175 °C) and has passed stress tests including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling. The NUP2125WTT3G is explicitly listed in the datasheet as "AEC-Q101 Qualified and PPAP Capable" on page 1.
How does the diode capacitance matching specification benefit CAN-FD designs?
The NUP2125WTT3G guarantees ≤0.26% capacitance mismatch between its two protection lines (measured at VR = 0 V, 5 MHz), which minimizes differential skew and preserves signal symmetry in CAN-FD's high-speed data phase. This tight matching prevents duty-cycle distortion and timing jitter that could cause bit errors above 2 Mbps - a key requirement validated in the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table.
What is the working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) rating of the NUP2125WTT3G and why is it important?
The NUP2125WTT3G has a VRWM of 24 V, meaning it remains non-conductive up to this DC or continuous peak voltage - well above nominal 12 V automotive bus levels and accommodating load-dump transients. This rating ensures no leakage-induced bias shift in LIN receivers or false triggering in CAN transceivers. The NUP2125WTT3G's 24 V VRWM is specified in the Maximum Ratings table and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics section.
Can the NUP2125WTT3G be used for both CAN and LIN bus protection in the same design?
Yes, the NUP2125WTT3G is explicitly designed for dual-use in both CAN and LIN applications, as stated in the datasheet's Applications section and Feature list. Its 24 V VRWM, low leakage (<100 nA), and matched 4.5–6.0 pF capacitance suit LIN's 12 V bias and CAN's differential signaling. The NUP2125WTT3G has been validated per ISO 7637-3 for LIN and IEC 61000-4-2 for CAN, supporting coexistence in multi-protocol ECUs.
