Product details
Overview
PESD2CANFD27V-TR 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 with 27 V reverse standoff voltage, 33 V clamping at 1 A, and 6 pF capacitance per channel. It protects two differential high-speed vehicle network lines against IEC 61000-4-2 ±20 kV and ISO 10605 ±20 kV (150 pF/330 Ω) discharges.
For engineers reviewing the PESD2CANFD27V-TR datasheet, PESD2CANFD27V-TR pinout, PESD2CANFD27V-TR application, or PESD2CANFD27V-TR equivalent, this device is selected for CAN-FD physical layer protection where low capacitance, AEC-Q101 qualification, and common-cathode dual-diode topology enable compact placement near connectors without signal integrity degradation.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-channel common-cathode TVS diode architecture optimized for automotive serial bus protection. Each channel provides symmetrical bidirectional clamping between line and ground, with matched 6 pF capacitance ensuring minimal impact on CAN-FD's 5 Mbps signaling integrity.
Its 175 °C junction temperature rating and AEC-Q101 qualification confirm suitability for under-hood environments. The 2.5 A peak pulse current (8/20 µs) supports robust surge immunity while maintaining low dynamic resistance (0.8 Ω) to limit voltage overshoot during fast transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 27 V - Ensures no conduction during normal CAN-FD bus operation (±12 V differential, 0–5 V common-mode). |
| Clamping Voltage | 33 V at 1 A - Limits transient voltage across protected lines to safe levels for CAN transceivers rated ≤40 V abs max. |
| Diode Capacitance | 6 pF - Preserves signal edge rate and eye diagram integrity up to 5 Mbps CAN-FD data rates. |
| ESD Rating | ±20 kV IEC 61000-4-2 - Meets automotive OEM requirements for connector-level ESD immunity. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 2.5 A (8/20 µs) - Handles induced surges from load dump or inductive switching in 12 V vehicle systems. |
| Junction Temperature | 175 °C - Supports placement near power electronics or engine control units without thermal derating. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in SOT23 (TO-236AB) plastic surface-mount package: 3-terminal, 1.9 mm pitch, 2.9 × 1.3 × 1.0 mm body. RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and qualified per AEC-Q101.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | K1 (Cathode 1) | Connects to first protected line (e.g., CANH); forms cathode of diode protecting that line to common cathode. |
| 2 | K2 (Cathode 2) | Connects to second protected line (e.g., CANL); forms cathode of second diode sharing common cathode. |
| 3 | CC (Common Cathode) | Connected to system ground; serves as shared return path for both ESD current paths, minimizing PCB loop area. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-channel common-cathode topology | Enables single-device protection of differential CAN-FD pairs with minimized ground path inductance and layout symmetry. |
| Low 6 pF inter-electrode capacitance | Maintains <1% signal rise-time degradation at 5 Mbps, avoiding bit error rate increase in high-speed automotive networks. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use including temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock per stress test standard. |
| Matched capacitance (≤0.5% ΔCd/Cd) | Preserves differential signal balance and common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) across CANH/CANL channels. |
Applications
| CAN-FD Bus Protection | CAN 2.0B Bus Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting high-speed (2–5 Mbps) Controller Area Network Flexible Data-Rate interfaces in ADAS ECUs and gateway modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: ESD transient suppressor placed directly at OBD-II or module connector, clamping fast ESD events before they reach the CAN transceiver. Use Value: Prevents latch-up or permanent damage to CAN FD transceivers (e.g., TJA1057x) during assembly handling or field exposure to ±20 kV contact discharge. | Use Scenario: Securing legacy CAN 2.0B networks in body control modules and powertrain sensors operating at 125 kbps–1 Mbps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-line protector with matched capacitance preserving signal symmetry on low-speed differential buses. Use Value: Eliminates need for two discrete diodes, reducing BOM count and PCB footprint while maintaining <10 ps skew between CANH/CANL clamping response. |
| FlexRay Bus Protection | SENT Sensor Interface Protection |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding FlexRay communication links in chassis and suspension control units requiring deterministic 10 Mbps timing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance transient suppressor on FlexRay A/B differential pairs, referenced to chassis ground via CC pin. Use Value: Maintains <50 mV common-mode noise margin during 20 kV ESD events, preventing protocol timeout or frame corruption in time-triggered networks. | Use Scenario: Shielding Single Edge Nibble Transmission (SENT) analog sensor outputs (e.g., pressure, temperature) from ESD coupling on harnesses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional clamp on SENT signal line (K1) and supply rail (K2), with CC tied to ground. Use Value: Enables direct protection of 5 V SENT outputs without adding series impedance, preserving 3 µs nibble timing accuracy and 12-bit resolution. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STUSB4710QTR | Integrated USB-C port protection IC with integrated switch; higher capacitance (15 pF), no AEC-Q101 rating. | Targeted at infotainment USB interfaces, not CAN/FlexRay physical layers. | Select only for non-automotive USB-C ESD + overvoltage protection; not suitable for CAN-FD signal integrity or under-hood thermal requirements. |
| ON Semiconductor NUP4202MR6T1G | Quad-channel SOT-23-6 device; 12 pF typical capacitance; 30 V VRWM; AEC-Q101 qualified. | Protects four lines (e.g., LIN + CAN + two signals); larger footprint and higher capacitance reduce CAN-FD speed margin. | Prefer when multi-line protection is needed and 12 pF capacitance is acceptable; avoid for >2 Mbps CAN-FD due to bandwidth limitation. |
Compared with STUSB4710QTR and NUP4202MR6T1G, PESD2CANFD27V-TR delivers optimal trade-off for CAN-FD: lowest capacitance (6 pF), precise 27 V standoff matching transceiver VCC tolerance, and dedicated dual-channel SOT23 layout enabling sub-3 mm² board area with minimal trace inductance.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended trace length between PESD2CANFD27V-TR and the protected CAN connector?
Trace length must be ≤3 mm from each protected line (pin 1 and pin 2) to the connector, with the common cathode (pin 3) routed directly to a solid ground plane using ≥2 vias. Longer traces increase inductance, degrading clamping response and allowing voltage overshoot beyond 33 V during 1 ns ESD rise times.
Can PESD2CANFD27V-TR protect both CANH and CANL against common-mode transients?
Yes - its dual-cathode configuration enables simultaneous clamping of both lines to ground. During common-mode surges, current splits equally across K1→CC and K2→CC paths, leveraging matched capacitance and dynamic resistance to maintain <100 mV differential offset and prevent transceiver input stage saturation.
Is the 6 pF capacitance measured between each anode and the common cathode?
Yes - Cd = 6 pF is specified per channel (pin 1 to pin 3, and pin 2 to pin 3) at 1 MHz and 2.5 V reverse bias. The datasheet confirms ≤0.5% capacitance mismatch between channels, critical for maintaining differential signal fidelity on CAN-FD buses.
Does PESD2CANFD27V-TR require external series impedance for CAN-FD compliance?
No - it is designed for direct placement without series resistors. Its low dynamic resistance (0.8 Ω) and fast response (<1 ns) allow full ESD energy shunting to ground while preserving the 60 Ω characteristic impedance of the CAN-FD bus segment upstream of the protection device.
