Product details
Overview
PACDN006SM from onsemi is a 6-channel ESD protection diode array in an 8-pin SOIC package, rated for ±8 kV contact and ±15 kV air discharge per IEC 61000−4−2 and MIL−STD−883 HBM, with 3 pF typical input capacitance and 1.5 kΩ dynamic impedance, used to safeguard I/O ports in portable electronics and VGA interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PACDN006SM datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include channel count, clamp voltage under 15 kV HBM (VP + 13.0 V / VN − 13.0 V), supply voltage range (0–5.5 V), leakage current (±1.0 µA max), and SOIC-8 footprint compatibility with layout-critical bypass capacitor placement.
Technical Context
The PACDN006SM implements rail-clamp architecture using bidirectional diode pairs per channel, steering ESD transients to VP (positive supply) or VN (ground reference). It operates within −40°C to +85°C and requires a 0.22 µF ceramic bypass capacitor between VP and VN to suppress high-frequency energy and limit clamp voltage rise caused by PCB trace inductance.
Each of its six I/O channels exhibits low loading capacitance (3 pF typ at 1 MHz, VP = 5 V, VN = 0 V, VIN = 2.5 V) and low leakage (±1.0 µA max), enabling use in battery-powered systems. The device supports supply voltages up to 5.5 V and withstands absolute maximum VP–VN differential of 6.0 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ESD Rating (IEC 61000−4−2) | ±8 kV contact discharge - meets Level 4 immunity for handheld interface ports |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | ±15 kV - exceeds MIL−STD−883 Method 3015 requirement for robust board-level handling |
| Input Capacitance | 3 pF typical - preserves signal integrity on high-speed video and USB 2.0 lines |
| Clamp Voltage (15 kV HBM) | VP + 13.0 V / VN − 13.0 V - defines maximum transient overvoltage seen by protected IC |
| Leakage Current | ±1.0 µA max - minimizes standby power loss in battery-operated devices |
| Supply Voltage Range | 0 to 5.5 V - compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains without level-shifting |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C - supports industrial and consumer ambient conditions |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (Case 751BD), surface-mount, RoHS-compliant lead-free finish, 3.9 mm × 4.9 mm body size, 1.27 mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | CH1 | I/O channel 1 - bidirectionally clamped between VP and VN |
| 2 | CH2 | I/O channel 2 - independent ESD path, no internal coupling to other channels |
| 3 | VN | Negative supply rail - must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| 4 | CH3 | I/O channel 3 - shares same VP/VN rails but electrically isolated channel |
| 5 | CH4 | I/O channel 4 - low-capacitance path for high-frequency signal lines |
| 6 | CH5 | I/O channel 5 - designed for placement adjacent to connector entry points |
| 7 | VP | Positive supply rail - requires local 0.22 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to VN |
| 8 | CH6 | I/O channel 6 - sixth independent protection path for multi-lane interfaces |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUP4201MR6T1G | 4-channel, SOT-23-6 package, 12 pF capacitance, ±12 kV HBM | Fewer channels, higher capacitance - suitable only for low-speed digital I/O, not video | Select when space-constrained layouts require smaller footprint and channel count is ≤4 |
| Diodes Inc. D3V3Z5U-7 | 6-channel, SOT-23-6 package, 5.5 pF capacitance, ±8 kV IEC contact | Different package (SOT-23-6 vs SOIC-8), higher capacitance limits use on >10 MHz signals | Choose for cost-sensitive consumer designs where SOIC-8 reflow compatibility is not required |
Compared with NUP4201MR6T1G and D3V3Z5U-7, the PACDN006SM delivers lower capacitance (3 pF vs ≥5.5 pF) and SOIC-8 manufacturability, making it preferable for high-fidelity analog video and multi-lane digital interfaces where signal fidelity and assembly yield are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage the PACDN006SM can handle?
The PACDN006SM supports an operating supply voltage range of 0 to 5.5 V between VP and VN pins. Its absolute maximum rating is 6.0 V, beyond which permanent damage may occur. For reliable operation in 5 V systems, ensure VP is tied to the nominal 5 V rail and VN to ground, with a 0.22 µF ceramic capacitor bridging them as specified in the PACDN006SM application circuit.
Does the PACDN006SM require external components to function properly?
Yes - the PACDN006SM requires a 0.22 µF ceramic bypass capacitor connected directly between VP and VN pins, placed as close as possible to the device. This capacitor absorbs high-frequency ESD energy and prevents excessive voltage overshoot due to PCB trace inductance. Without it, clamp voltage performance degrades significantly during IEC 61000−4−2 testing.
Can the PACDN006SM protect both analog and digital signals?
Yes - the PACDN006SM is designed for mixed-signal environments. Its 3 pF typical input capacitance ensures minimal impact on analog video bandwidth (e.g., VGA) and digital timing margins (e.g., USB 2.0 D+/D−). Each channel operates independently, allowing simultaneous protection of RGB, sync, and control lines without crosstalk or shared impedance effects.
What is the thermal performance of the PACDN006SM in continuous operation?
The PACDN006SM has a package power rating of 200 mW and operates over −40°C to +85°C. Under normal ESD suppression duty cycles (transient-only conduction), junction temperature rise is negligible. Continuous DC forward current is limited to 20 mA per diode (one at a time), and thermal resistance θJA for SOIC-8 is approximately 160°C/W - sufficient for ambient conditions without heatsinking.
How does the PACDN006SM compare to TVS diode arrays in terms of response time?
The PACDN006SM uses silicon diode clamping with sub-nanosecond response - faster than most polymer or ceramic TVS devices. Its rail-clamp topology activates immediately upon exceeding the diode forward voltage (~0.65 V), limiting transients before they propagate into protected ICs. Unlike avalanche-based TVS, it avoids snapback delay and exhibits predictable, repeatable clamping behavior across temperature and lifetime.
