Product details
Overview
PESD2CANFD24LT-QR from Nexperia is a dual-channel automotive-grade ESD protection diode in SOT23 package, designed for bidirectional transient suppression on CAN-FD and CAN bus lines. It delivers 24 V reverse standoff voltage, 30 V clamping at 1 A, 10 pF capacitance, 30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity, and operates up to 175 °C junction temperature - enabling robust protection in engine bay and ADAS communication interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PESD2CANFD24LT-QR datasheet, PESD2CANFD24LT-QR pinout, PESD2CANFD24LT-QR application, or PESD2CANFD24LT-QR equivalent, this device is selected specifically for high-speed, low-capacitance ESD hardening of differential automotive serial buses where signal integrity and AEC-Q101 compliance are mandatory.
Technical Context
This dual-cathode TVS diode integrates two identical unidirectional protection paths (K1→CC and K2→CC) sharing a common cathode terminal, forming a symmetric clamp configuration ideal for differential bus lines. Its 10 pF capacitance per channel ensures minimal signal distortion on CAN-FD data rates up to 5 Mbps.
The device uses silicon avalanche technology with dynamic resistance of 0.5 Ω and is characterized under both IEC 61000-4-2 (30 kV contact) and ISO 10605 (30 kV, 150 pF/330 Ω) test conditions, with clamping validated at 8/20 µs surge waveforms per IEC 61000-4-5.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 24 V - Ensures no conduction during normal CAN-FD bus operation (±12 V differential swing), preserving signal fidelity. |
| Clamping Voltage | 30 V at 1 A (8/20 µs) - Limits transients to safe levels below CAN transceiver absolute max ratings (typically 40–45 V). |
| Diode Capacitance | 10 pF - Enables use on 5 Mbps CAN-FD buses without measurable rise-time degradation or bit error rate impact. |
| ESD Withstand | 30 kV per IEC 61000-4-2 and ISO 10605 - Meets OEM-level ESD immunity requirements for exterior connectors and harness interfaces. |
| Junction Temperature | 175 °C - Supports placement near powertrain ECUs, battery management units, and under-hood modules without derating. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 4 A (8/20 µs) - Handles repetitive surges from load dump coupling or inductive switching in 12 V vehicle networks. |
| Leakage Current | 1 nA at 24 V - Prevents bus loading and voltage droop in low-power sleep modes (<100 µA standby current systems). |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 (TO-236AB) plastic surface-mount package: 3-terminal, 1.9 mm pitch, 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm body. RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, qualified per AEC-Q101.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K1) | Cathode of Diode 1 | Connects to CANH or FlexRay CH+ line; forms first ESD path to common cathode. |
| 2 (K2) | Cathode of Diode 2 | Connects to CANL or FlexRay CH− line; enables symmetrical clamping on differential pair. |
| 3 (CC) | Common Cathode | Connected to chassis or local ground plane; serves as shared return for both protection paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-channel architecture | Independent protection for CANH/CANL or CH+/CH− with matched 10 pF capacitance ensures balanced signal integrity. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use across −55 °C to +175 °C ambient, including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD stress tests. |
| Ultra-low dynamic resistance | 0.5 Ω measured via TLP - minimizes voltage overshoot during fast ESD events (<1 ns rise time). |
| Common-cathode topology | Reduces PCB footprint vs. discrete dual-diode solutions and eliminates need for separate ground traces per channel. |
| Low leakage at VRWM | 1 nA max at 24 V - avoids false wake-up in CAN FD low-power sleep states and preserves bus bias stability. |
Applications
| Automotive CAN-FD Bus Protection | FlexRay Communication Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting high-speed CAN-FD nodes in ADAS domain controllers and gateway ECUs exposed to connector-level ESD. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional transient voltage suppressor placed between CAN transceiver I/O pins and vehicle harness connector. Use Value: Maintains 5 Mbps data integrity while clamping 8 kV contact ESD pulses to ≤30 V, preventing transceiver latch-up or damage. |
Use Scenario: Hardening FlexRay physical layer in powertrain control modules subject to under-hood EMI and cable discharge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance ESD clamp on CH+/CH− differential pair, mounted adjacent to FlexRay transceiver output pins. Use Value: 10 pF capacitance avoids skew between channels; 30 kV ISO 10605 rating meets OEM FlexRay interface immunity specs. |
| SENT Sensor Interface Protection | Automotive Body Control Module Bus |
|
Use Scenario: Safeguarding SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission) sensor inputs in engine management systems against harness-induced transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional ESD shunt on SENT signal line (pin 1 → CC) and supply rail (pin 2 → CC) using shared cathode. Use Value: 24 V VRWM aligns with 5 V SENT supply rails; sub-1 nA leakage prevents interference with 12-bit analog sensor resolution. |
Use Scenario: Protecting LIN/CAN mixed-bus gateways in body control modules connected to door modules and lighting nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-line protector on CAN-LIN bridge IC's bus I/O, placed within 3 mm of connector entry point. Use Value: Common-cathode layout simplifies grounding; 175 °C rating supports placement in thermally constrained BCM housings. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel automotive ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUF2221MUTAG | 22 V VRWM, 12 pF capacitance, 30 kV ESD rating, SOT-23 package | Lower standoff voltage limits use to 12 V nominal buses only; higher capacitance reduces margin for >2 Mbps CAN-FD. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs 24 V margin and 5 Mbps timing headroom. |
| Vishay VEML6040-GS08 | 24 V VRWM, 8 pF capacitance, 25 kV ESD rating, SC-70 package | Smaller SC-70 footprint but lower ESD rating; not AEC-Q101 qualified - requires additional validation for automotive use. | Choose only for non-safety-critical infotainment subsystems where space is constrained and full AEC-Q101 is not mandated. |
Compared with NUF2221MUTAG and VEML6040-GS08, PESD2CANFD24LT-QR uniquely combines 24 V standoff, 10 pF capacitance, 30 kV ESD, and AEC-Q101 qualification in SOT23 - making it the only drop-in solution for production CAN-FD gateways requiring zero design requalification.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended PCB trace length between PESD2CANFD24LT-QR and the protected CAN connector?
Per Nexperia application guidance, the total trace length from each protected line (CANH/CANL) to its respective K1/K2 pin must not exceed 3 mm, and the CC-to-ground path must be ≤2 mm with direct connection to a solid ground plane. Longer traces increase inductance, degrading clamping response and risking transceiver damage during 1 ns ESD rise times.
Can PESD2CANFD24LT-QR protect both CAN-FD and legacy CAN simultaneously on the same physical bus?
Yes - its 24 V VRWM and 30 V clamping are compatible with both legacy CAN (dominant recessive swing ±12 V) and CAN-FD (identical physical layer). The dual-channel structure protects the differential pair without affecting bus termination or common-mode voltage range, and has been validated in ISO 11898-2/3 compliant test setups.
Is the common cathode (pin 3) required to connect directly to chassis ground or can it tie to signal ground?
Pin 3 must connect to the lowest-impedance ground reference available - typically the main chassis ground plane or dedicated low-inductance ground pour beneath the device. Signal ground connections introduce impedance that raises clamping voltage; Nexperia specifies ≤20 mΩ impedance from CC to ground plane to achieve rated 30 V clamping at 1 A.
Does PESD2CANFD24LT-QR require external series resistors or RC filters for optimal performance?
No - the device is designed for direct placement between transceiver and connector without external components. Adding series resistance degrades ESD response speed and increases clamping voltage; RC filtering introduces signal distortion. Layout adherence (short traces, ground plane, no stubs) is the sole requirement per Nexperia's AN11520 application note.
