Product details
Overview
PESD2USB3B/C from Nexperia is a dual-channel bidirectional ESD protection diode array for high-speed differential data lines, featuring ±20 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge rating, 0.29 pF typical diode capacitance per line, and 16.1 GHz f-3dB differential insertion loss bandwidth - deployed in USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) and HDMI 2.0 interfaces to safeguard SoC transceivers.
For engineers reviewing the PESD2USB3B/C datasheet, PESD2USB3B/C pinout, PESD2USB3B/C application, or PESD2USB3B/C equivalent, this device delivers ultra-low-capacitance, footprint-compatible ESD hardening for differential pairs without signal integrity degradation - critical for layout-constrained mobile and display interface designs.
Technical Context
The PESD2USB3B/C implements a TrEOS clamping architecture with snap-back behavior, achieving dynamic resistance of 0.2 Ω under ±100 ns TLP pulses to minimize clamping voltage during ESD events. Its dual-channel structure isolates CH1 and CH2 signal paths with independent ground terminals (GND_CH1, GND_CH2), enabling channel-specific return path control.
Designed for impedance-matched routing, it maintains differential Zdif ≈ 90 Ω across DC–16 GHz and supports clean 10 Gbps USB 3.2 eye diagrams when placed at Type-C connector entry points - verified with <1 dB insertion loss up to 8 GHz and <-40 dB crosstalk at 5 GHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ESD Rating | ±20 kV contact discharge (IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4); protects downstream SoCs from human-body-model ESD strikes. |
| Diode Capacitance | 0.29 pF per line at 1 MHz/2.5 V; preserves signal integrity on 10 Gbps differential links with minimal timing skew. |
| Breakdown Voltage | 6–9 V (IR = 1 mA); ensures reliable clamping before damage to 3.3 V or 5 V interface receivers. |
| Differential Bandwidth | 16.1 GHz f-3dB; supports full USB 3.2 Gen 2 and HDMI 2.0 (6 Gbps) data rates without attenuation. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 0.2 Ω (TLP, ±100 ns); enables low-voltage clamping (<8 V) during fast ESD transients to limit stress on protected ICs. |
| Leakage Current | 1–100 nA per line at 5 V; avoids DC loading or bias shift in high-impedance receiver inputs. |
Pinout & Package
Package: WLCSP10 (wafer-level chip-scale package), 1.62 mm × 1.52 mm × 0.64 mm, 10-bump layout (4-2-4), solder bump pitch 0.4 mm, compatible with standard SMT reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | CH1_IN+ | External-side positive input of Channel 1; connects to USB3.2 TX/RX+ or HDMI TMDS+ trace. |
| A2 | CH1_IN- | External-side negative input of Channel 1; routed differentially with A1 to maintain 90 Ω impedance. |
| A3 | CH2_IN+ | External-side positive input of Channel 2; used for second differential pair (e.g., USB3.2 second lane or HDMI clock). |
| A4 | CH2_IN- | External-side negative input of Channel 2; isolated from CH1 ground to prevent inter-channel coupling. |
| B1 | GND_CH1 | Dedicated ground return for Channel 1; must be connected to local ground plane beneath device for optimal ESD path. |
| B2 | GND_CH2 | Dedicated ground return for Channel 2; electrically separate from B1 to avoid cross-talk between channels. |
| C1 | CH1_OUT+ | Internal-side positive output; connects directly to SoC differential receiver input (e.g., USB3 PHY RX+). |
| C2 | CH1_OUT- | Internal-side negative output; completes low-inductance protected path to SoC with matched length to C1. |
| C3 | CH2_OUT+ | Internal-side positive output for Channel 2; enables simultaneous protection of two independent high-speed lanes. |
| C4 | CH2_OUT- | Internal-side negative output for Channel 2; supports compact routing without shared vias or stubs. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Footprint compatibility | Matches PCMF2USB3B/C common-mode filters - allows drop-in replacement or co-design without PCB redesign. |
| TrEOS clamping process | Delivers snap-back behavior with sub-8 V clamping voltage at 8 A TLP, reducing stress on sensitive 28 nm/16 nm SoCs. |
| Ultra-low capacitance | 0.29 pF per line minimizes signal distortion and jitter on 10 Gbps links - validated via clean USB 3.2 eye diagrams. |
| Independent channel grounds | B1 and B2 provide isolated return paths, preventing ground bounce coupling between protected differential pairs. |
| High-frequency performance | 16.1 GHz f-3dB and <-40 dB crosstalk at 5 GHz ensure compliance with USB 3.2 Gen 2 and HDMI 2.0 signal integrity requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel high-speed differential ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor ESDE0402MUTAG | Single-channel, 0.35 pF capacitance, ±12 kV ESD rating, SOD-923 package (1.0 mm × 0.6 mm) | Requires two devices for dual-channel use; larger footprint and higher capacitance degrade 10 Gbps signal integrity. | Select only if board space permits discrete placement and 12 kV rating suffices for target environment. |
| Vishay VEML6040-GS08 | Optical sensor - not an ESD protector; incompatible function and pinout. | N/A - misidentified part; excluded from functional comparison. | Not applicable; VEML6040 is ambient light sensor and cannot substitute for PESD2USB3B/C. |
Compared with ESDE0402MUTAG, PESD2USB3B/C offers integrated dual-channel protection, 33% lower capacitance, and 67% higher ESD rating in half the PCB area - making it superior for space-constrained, high-reliability USB/HDMI designs. The VEML6040 is functionally unrelated and unsuitable as an alternative.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by PESD2USB3B/C?
PESD2USB3B/C supports differential data rates up to 10 Gbps (USB 3.2 Gen 2) with verified eye diagram integrity, enabled by its 16.1 GHz f-3dB bandwidth and 0.29 pF line capacitance - confirmed through measurement on evaluation boards with controlled-impedance traces.
Can PESD2USB3B/C be used for single-ended signals like USB 2.0 D+/D−?
No - PESD2USB3B/C is optimized exclusively for differential signaling. Its internal structure provides matched clamping for complementary pairs; using it on single-ended lines would unbalance protection and degrade ESD performance due to asymmetric current paths and undefined common-mode behavior.
Is the WLCSP10 package compatible with standard reflow soldering processes?
Yes - the WLCSP10 package uses solder bumps compatible with IPC-7095-compliant reflow profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260 °C. Recommended stencil thickness is 0.1 mm, and solder land dimensions (0.25 mm × 0.25 mm) align with industry-standard fine-pitch SMT assembly practices.
How does the TrEOS clamping architecture improve system-level ESD robustness?
TrEOS employs a snap-back mechanism that reduces dynamic resistance to 0.2 Ω during ESD events, lowering clamping voltage to <8 V at 8 A TLP current - significantly below the breakdown threshold of modern SoC I/O cells. This prevents latch-up and oxide damage in 28 nm and smaller process nodes.
