Product details
Overview
PESD24VS4UD-Q from Nexperia is a quadruple unidirectional ESD protection diode array in SOT457 (SC-74) package, designed to protect four independent signal lines against IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 ESD (±23 kV contact), with 24 V reverse standoff voltage, 52 V clamping voltage at 4 A, and 45–70 pF capacitance per line. It is deployed in high-density portable electronics interfaces requiring low-leakage (0.05 nA) and fast transient suppression.
For engineers reviewing the PESD24VS4UD-Q datasheet, PESD24VS4UD-Q pinout, PESD24VS4UD-Q application, or PESD24VS4UD-Q equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 4 A surge, bidirectional layout compatibility via dual common anodes, ultra-low capacitance for high-speed data lines (e.g., USB 2.0, SIM card interfaces), and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive infotainment I/O protection.
Technical Context
This device implements four independent unidirectional TVS diodes sharing two common anode terminals (pins 2 and 5), enabling flexible routing for either four separate unidirectional lines or three bidirectional lines using shared anode topology. Each cathode-anode path exhibits 25.5–29 V breakdown and sub-25 Ω differential resistance.
It complies with IEC 61000-4-2 (±23 kV contact/±15 kV air) and IEC 61000-4-5 (4 A, 8/20 µs surge), delivering 200 W peak pulse power per channel. The 0.05 nA reverse leakage at 24 V supports battery-sensitive applications like SIM card slots and mobile audio codecs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 24 V - Maximum continuous DC or RMS signal voltage before conduction begins; defines safe operating margin for 3.3 V/5 V/12 V data lines. |
| Clamping Voltage | 52 V at 4 A - Peak voltage across diode during IEC 61000-4-5 surge; ensures downstream ICs rated ≤55 V survive transient events. |
| Diode Capacitance | 45–70 pF at 1 MHz - Low enough for USB 2.0 (480 Mbps), HDMI DDC, and audio codec I²C lines without signal integrity degradation. |
| ESD Rating | ±23 kV contact per IEC 61000-4-2 - Meets highest industrial and automotive ESD immunity requirement for exposed connectors. |
| Peak Pulse Power | 200 W per channel - Sustains 4 A, 8/20 µs surges without thermal runaway; validated per IEC 61000-4-5 waveform. |
| Leakage Current | 0.05 nA at 24 V - Enables use in always-on battery-backed circuits (e.g., SIM detection, real-time clock lines) without measurable drain. |
Pinout & Package
SOT457 (SC-74 / TSOP6) 6-pin surface-mount plastic package, 3.0 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.1 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, gull-wing leads. RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, qualified per AEC-Q101.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode 1 | Protected signal line 1 input; connects to I/O pad of MCU/codec; conducts to common anode during positive transients. |
| 2 | Common Anode A | Anode node shared by cathodes 1 and 2; ties to system ground or local low-impedance return path for ESD current dissipation. |
| 3 | Cathode 2 | Protected signal line 2 input; electrically isolated from cathode 1 but shares anode 2; enables compact dual-line protection. |
| 4 | Cathode 3 | Protected signal line 3 input; pairs with common anode 5; allows independent routing for third high-speed interface (e.g., SDIO). |
| 5 | Common Anode B | Second anode node shared by cathodes 3 and 4; permits split-ground or multi-zone PCB layout without shared return-path coupling. |
| 6 | Cathode 4 | Protected signal line 4 input; completes quad-channel protection; supports SIM card VCC/I/O/CLK/RST line shielding in mobile designs. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ESDA6V1SC6 | Unidirectional, 6 V VRWM, 12 pF typical capacitance, 30 V clamping at 1 A | Better suited for low-voltage 1.8 V/3.3 V logic; insufficient for 24 V signal lines or automotive 12 V bias rails | Select only when protecting sub-5 V high-speed serial links where ultra-low capacitance (<15 pF) is critical and standoff voltage ≤6 V is acceptable. |
| TPD4E001DPYR | Unidirectional, 5.5 V VRWM, 3.5 pF typical capacitance, 14 V clamping at 1 A, 12 kV ESD rating | Optimized for USB 3.0/PCIe Gen1; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and fails to meet 23 kV IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 | Prefer for ultra-high-speed interfaces (≥5 Gbps) where sub-5 pF loading is mandatory, but avoid in automotive or industrial environments requiring full level-4 compliance. |
Compared with ESDA6V1SC6 and TPD4E001DPYR, PESD24VS4UD-Q uniquely balances 24 V standoff, 23 kV ESD robustness, AEC-Q101 qualification, and 45–70 pF capacitance-making it the only option among the three qualified for 12 V automotive I/O, SIM card slots, and USB 2.0 in harsh environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended PCB trace length between PESD24VS4UD-Q and the protected connector?
The datasheet specifies placement "as close to the input terminal or connector as possible" to minimize inductance in the ESD current path. For optimal IEC 61000-4-2 performance, keep trace lengths under 3 mm from each cathode pin to its protected line and under 2 mm from common anodes (pins 2 and 5) to their respective ground vias. Longer traces degrade clamping response and increase overshoot.
Can PESD24VS4UD-Q protect bidirectional data lines like I²C without external components?
Yes-its dual common anode architecture (pins 2 and 5) allows configuration for three bidirectional lines: connect pins 1–2–3 as one channel (cathodes 1/2 to shared anode 2), and pins 4–5–6 as two additional channels (cathode 3 to anode 5, cathode 4 to anode 5). This provides full ±23 kV ESD protection on SDA/SCL/VDD lines without pull-up resistor relocation or added diodes.
Is the 200 W peak pulse power rating per channel or total for all four channels?
The 200 W rating is per channel, verified per IEC 61000-4-5 with non-repetitive 8/20 µs pulses applied individually to pins 1, 3, 4, or 6 relative to pins 2 or 5. Simultaneous multi-channel stressing is not characterized; design practice limits surge application to one line at a time to maintain thermal safety margins.
Does the 0.05 nA leakage current apply across the full operating temperature range?
No-the 0.05 nA value is specified at Tamb = 25 °C and VRWM = 24 V. Leakage increases with temperature: typical values are 0.2 nA at 85 °C and 15 nA maximum at 125 °C. For battery-critical applications, derate based on worst-case junction temperature, not ambient.
