Product details
Overview
PESD2ETH1GXT-QR from Nexperia is a bidirectional dual-line automotive ESD protection diode in SOT23 package, compliant with OPEN Alliance IEEE 100BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-T1 standards, featuring 100 V min trigger voltage, <1.3 pF capacitance, and 30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD rating - designed to protect Ethernet PHY signal lines in vehicle domain controllers and ADAS camera links.
For engineers reviewing the PESD2ETH1GXT-QR datasheet, PESD2ETH1GXT-QR pinout, PESD2ETH1GXT-QR application, or PESD2ETH1GXT-QR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential line capacitance matching (≤2%), clamping voltage under 8/20 µs surge (≤160 V), AEC-Q101 qualification, and common-cathode dual-diode topology for symmetric Ethernet bus protection.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-channel, common-cathode TVS diode structure optimized for 100/1000BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet. It uses silicon avalanche junctions with TLP-characterized dynamic resistance of 0.6 Ω and holds >28 V after triggering, enabling robust transient suppression without signal integrity degradation on high-speed differential pairs.
Its design satisfies OPEN Alliance's four-test compliance framework: differential S-parameter stability (Sdd11/Sdd21) pre/post 20× ±8 kV discharges, common-mode rejection (Ssd21) symmetry verification, and RF clamping immunity up to 39 dBm - ensuring no EMC performance drift in full-duplex 1 Gbps links.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 24 V - defines maximum continuous common-mode voltage before leakage exceeds 100 nA, compatible with 100BASE-T1's 2.5 Vpp differential swing and 1000BASE-T1's 1 Vpp swing plus noise margin |
| Trigger Voltage (Vt1) | 100 V min (TLP, 100 ns) - ensures reliable turn-on only during ESD events, avoiding false triggering from power rail transients or hot-plug surges |
| Diode Capacitance | 1.1–1.3 pF @ 1 MHz, 0 V - low enough to preserve >100 MHz bandwidth and meet OPEN Alliance return loss requirements (Sdd11 < −10 dB) |
| Capacitance Matching | ≤2% ΔCd/Cd - guarantees balanced differential impedance and minimizes common-mode conversion on twisted-pair lines |
| ESD Withstand | 30 kV contact (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds OPEN Alliance's 15 kV requirement for 1000 contact discharges, supporting long-life reliability in harsh vehicle environments |
| Peak Pulse Current | 2.3 A (8/20 µs) - sustains ISO 10605 surges with C=330 pF/R=330 Ω without parametric shift or bond-wire failure |
| Junction Temperature | −55 °C to +150 °C - enables operation in engine bay, infotainment head units, and radar modules per AEC-Q101 Grade 1 |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 plastic surface-mounted package (2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm body, 1.9 mm lead pitch), qualified per AEC-Q101 and rated for reflow/wave soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020/J-STD-006.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | K (cathode) | Connects to first Ethernet differential line (e.g., BI_DA+); forms one half of symmetrical clamping path to common cathode |
| 2 | K (cathode) | Connects to second Ethernet differential line (e.g., BI_DA−); matched capacitance and Vt1 ensure balanced transient response |
| 3 | CC (common cathode) | Shared cathode node tied to chassis ground or local AGND; enables single-point grounding for minimized loop area and EMI reduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-line OPEN Alliance compliance | Fully certified per IEEE 100BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-T1 ESD suppressor specs - passes all four tests including post-stress S-parameter validation and RF clamping immunity |
| Low asymmetric capacitance | 1.1 pF typical with ≤2% inter-line mismatch - preserves signal integrity at 600+ MHz frequencies required for 1000BASE-T1 eye opening |
| High trigger threshold | 100 V min Vt1 - prevents false activation during load dump, alternator ripple, or CAN/LIN bus coupling events |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Qualified for automotive Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C ambient) with full stress testing including HTRB, HTGB, and temperature cycling |
| Common-cathode architecture | Single CC terminal simplifies PCB layout and grounding - eliminates need for separate ground traces and reduces parasitic inductance by >40% vs. discrete dual-diode solutions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-line automotive Ethernet ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUF2221MUTAG | Lower Vt1 (65 V typ), higher Cd (2.5 pF), not OPEN Alliance certified | Limited to 100BASE-T1 only; fails post-stress Sdd21 validation at 1000BASE-T1 speeds | Select only for cost-sensitive non-safety-critical 100 Mbit/s gateways where full compliance is not mandated |
| Vishay VEML6030X01 | Single-channel, 12 V VRWM, no common-cathode configuration | Requires two devices per differential pair; increases board area and capacitance mismatch risk | Use only when redesigning legacy layouts with discrete placement constraints and no space for dual-diode SOT23 |
Compared with NUF2221MUTAG and VEML6030X01, PESD2ETH1GXT-QR delivers verified 1000BASE-T1 readiness through matched low capacitance, OPEN Alliance test validation, and integrated common-cathode topology - reducing component count, improving EMC margin, and guaranteeing interoperability with leading automotive PHYs.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended PCB trace length between PESD2ETH1GXT-QR and the protected Ethernet PHY?
Trace length must be ≤3 mm from each diode anode (pins 1 and 2) to the corresponding PHY I/O pin, and the common cathode (pin 3) must connect to a low-inductance ground plane via ≥2 vias within 1 mm. Longer traces degrade high-frequency clamping performance and violate OPEN Alliance S-parameter test conditions.
Does PESD2ETH1GXT-QR require external series resistors for optimal 1000BASE-T1 signal integrity?
No external series resistors are needed. Its 1.1–1.3 pF capacitance and ≤2% inter-line matching maintain differential impedance within ±5% of 100 Ω across 1–600 MHz, satisfying OPEN Alliance insertion loss (Sdd21 > −3.5 dB) and return loss (Sdd11 < −10 dB) requirements without added termination.
How does the common-cathode configuration affect grounding strategy in multi-layer automotive PCBs?
The common-cathode pin (3) must connect directly to a solid internal ground plane using ≥2 thermal vias spaced ≤0.5 mm apart. This configuration eliminates ground-loop asymmetry between channels and reduces common-mode EMI by 8–12 dB compared to discrete dual-diode layouts with separate ground paths.
Can PESD2ETH1GXT-QR be used for non-automotive 1000BASE-T1 applications such as industrial Ethernet?
Yes - its AEC-Q101 qualification, −55 °C to +150 °C operating range, and OPEN Alliance certification make it suitable for industrial Ethernet nodes exposed to high ESD stress (e.g., factory automation controllers), though system-level EMC validation remains the designer's responsibility per IEC 61000-6-2/6-4.
