Product details
Overview
PESD1CANVL from Nexperia is a dual-line automotive CAN bus ESD protection diode in SOT23 package, featuring 24 V reverse standoff voltage, 11–17 pF diode capacitance, 23 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD rating, 40 V clamping voltage at 1 A, and ultra-low leakage (<1 nA). It protects high-speed and fault-tolerant CAN transceivers in vehicle networking systems.
For engineers reviewing the PESD1CANVL datasheet, PESD1CANVL pinout, PESD1CANVL application, or PESD1CANVL equivalent, key selection criteria include matched diode capacitance (ΔCd/Cd = 0.1 %), low clamping voltage for signal integrity, surge robustness (200 W, 8/20 µs), and automotive-grade thermal stability (Tj ≤ 150 °C).
Technical Context
The PESD1CANVL integrates two back-to-back ESD protection diodes sharing a common cathode, enabling symmetrical bidirectional clamping on CANH and CANL lines without polarity constraints. Its structure delivers matched capacitance and low differential resistance (≤300 Ω) to preserve CAN signal rise/fall times.
Designed specifically for automotive CAN physical layer protection, it complies with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (≥23 kV contact), IEC 61000-4-5 (3 A surge), and supports both ISO 11898-2 (high-speed) and ISO 11898-3 (fault-tolerant) bus topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 24 V reverse standoff voltage - ensures no conduction during normal CAN bus operation (±5 V common-mode, ±40 V fault). |
| VCL @ IPP=1 A | 40 V clamping voltage - limits transient overvoltage to safe levels for CAN transceivers rated ≤45 V absolute max. |
| Cd | 11–17 pF at 1 MHz, 0 V - low, tightly matched capacitance preserves CAN signal integrity up to 1 Mbps. |
| ΔCd/Cd | 0.1 % capacitance matching - minimizes skew between CANH and CANL protection paths, critical for differential timing. |
| PPP | 200 W peak pulse power (8/20 µs) - withstands automotive load-dump and coupling-induced surges per line. |
| IRM | <1 nA reverse leakage at 24 V - prevents bus bias shift and quiescent current accumulation in multi-node networks. |
| VESD | 23 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge - exceeds automotive OEM ESD immunity requirements (e.g., GMW3172, Ford ES-XW7T-1A278-AC). |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 (TO-236AB) surface-mount plastic package: 3-pin, 2.8 mm × 1.4 mm footprint, 1.1 mm height, lead pitch 0.95 mm, RoHS-compliant, JEDEC standard outline.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode 1 | Connects to CANH line; forms one half of bidirectional ESD clamp path to common cathode. |
| 2 | Cathode 2 | Connects to CANL line; forms second half of bidirectional clamp, matched to Pin 1 for symmetry. |
| 3 | Common Cathode | Shared return node tied to chassis or local ground plane; enables compact dual-line protection in single package. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-line integrated protection | Single SOT23 replaces two discrete TVS diodes - reduces PCB area by >40 % and eliminates layout mismatch risk. |
| Capacitance-matched diodes | ΔCd/Cd = 0.1 % ensures <10 ps inter-line timing skew - essential for maintaining CAN differential eye opening at 1 Mbps. |
| Low clamping + low leakage | VCL = 40 V @ 1 A and IRM <1 nA jointly prevent transceiver latch-up while avoiding bus loading in sleep mode. |
| Automotive surge compliance | 200 W (8/20 µs) per line and 3 A IEC 61000-4-5 rating meet ISO 7637-3 Pulse 5a/b immunity test requirements. |
Applications
| High-Speed CAN Bus Protection | Body Control Module (BCM) Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting CANH/CANL signals between MCU and external CAN transceiver in ADAS domain controller. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional ESD clamp placed directly at connector entry point to shunt transients before reaching transceiver input pins. Use Value: Maintains signal fidelity at 500 kbps–1 Mbps with <1% duty-cycle jitter increase under 15 kV ESD stress. |
Use Scenario: Securing CAN communication between BCM microcontroller and door module actuators in 12 V vehicle architecture. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-cathode dual-diode structure provides symmetric protection without requiring separate ground routing for each line. Use Value: Eliminates need for two discrete diodes and associated trace length mismatches, reducing BOM count and assembly cost by 30 %. |
| Fault-Tolerant CAN Network Node | Electric Power Steering (EPS) ECU |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding CAN interface in rear axle control unit operating per ISO 11898-3 (24 V tolerant, 125 kbps). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse standoff voltage (24 V) aligns with fault-tolerant bus DC range; clamping action activates only during transients >27.8 V breakdown. Use Value: Enables reliable operation across −40 °C to +125 °C ambient with no derating up to Tj = 150 °C. |
Use Scenario: Protecting CAN bus in EPS electronic control unit exposed to motor switching noise and battery transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: 200 W surge rating handles coupled energy from 12 V supply line during load dump events per ISO 7637-2. Use Value: Prevents false CAN error frames caused by transient-induced transceiver reset, meeting ASIL-B functional safety requirements. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-line CAN bus ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUP2114 | Higher clamping voltage (VCL = 48 V @ 1 A); wider capacitance range (15–25 pF); no published ΔCd/Cd spec. | Less suitable for high-speed CAN (>500 kbps) due to higher capacitance variation and slower response. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs timing precision; verify transceiver VIO margin against 48 V clamp. |
| Infineon ESD224 | Lower VRWM (16 V); lower PPP (150 W); tighter Cd tolerance (±10 %) but no ΔCd/Cd data; SOD-323 package. | Not recommended for 24 V automotive systems; limited surge capability in load-dump scenarios. | Only consider for 12 V non-critical sub-networks; requires redesign for mechanical footprint and thermal dissipation. |
Compared with NUP2114 and ESD224, PESD1CANVL uniquely combines 24 V VRWM, 0.1 % capacitance matching, and 200 W surge rating in SOT23-making it the only option qualified for full-speed, fault-tolerant, and ASIL-compliant CAN nodes without trade-offs in signal integrity or thermal margin.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The PESD1CANVL has a maximum junction temperature (Tj) rating of 150 °C, validated per IEC 60134 limiting values. This allows uninterrupted operation in under-hood environments where ambient temperatures reach 125 °C, provided PCB copper area and airflow maintain thermal resistance below 25 K/W.
Can PESD1CANVL be used for LIN bus protection?
No-PESD1CANVL is optimized for CAN bus voltage ranges (±40 V fault, 24 V standoff) and capacitance matching. LIN operates at 12 V with different transient profiles; its lower voltage swing makes this device's 24 V VRWM unnecessarily high and risks inadequate clamping during low-energy ESD events.
Is the common cathode (Pin 3) required to connect to chassis ground?
Pin 3 must connect to a low-impedance ground reference-ideally the local PCB ground plane adjacent to the CAN connector-not necessarily chassis ground. A direct, short trace (<5 mm) to a solid ground plane minimizes inductance and ensures effective clamping during fast ESD events.
Does PESD1CANVL support bidirectional data transmission on CANH and CANL?
Yes-the internal back-to-back diode configuration provides symmetrical clamping for both positive and negative transients on either line, preserving the differential signaling nature of CAN. Its matched capacitance and low rdif (≤300 Ω) ensure minimal distortion of the 0–5 V differential waveform during active communication.
