Product details
Overview
PESD5V0S2BT from Nexperia is a low-capacitance, bidirectional double ESD protection diode in SOT23 (TO-236AB) package, designed to protect two data lines against IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 ESD (±30 kV contact), 8/20 µs surge (12 A), with 5 V reverse standoff voltage and 35 pF typical capacitance - used in high-speed USB, HDMI, and audio interface lines.
For engineers reviewing the PESD5V0S2BT datasheet, PESD5V0S2BT pinout, PESD5V0S2BT application, or PESD5V0S2BT equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (14 V @ 12 A), ultra-low leakage (5 nA @ 5 V), AEC-Q101 qualification, and dual-line bidirectional protection in a 3-pin SOT23 footprint.
Technical Context
This device integrates two independent bidirectional ESD protection paths between pins 1–3 and 2–3, each featuring a symmetrical avalanche structure enabling ±30 kV ESD immunity per line without polarity constraints. Its low 35 pF capacitance ensures minimal signal integrity impact on high-frequency interfaces up to 500 MHz.
The diode operates with a 5 V reverse standoff voltage and clamps transients to ≤14 V at 12 A peak pulse current (8/20 µs), delivering 130 W peak pulse power per channel. Junction temperature is rated to 150 °C, supporting automotive under-hood and industrial ambient conditions.
Key Specifications

| Cd | 35 pF typical capacitance at 1 MHz - enables use on USB 2.0, HDMI, and audio differential pairs without signal degradation |
| VCL | 14 V clamping voltage at 12 A - limits transient overvoltage to safe levels for downstream 5 V logic and PHY ICs |
| PPPM | 130 W peak pulse power per diode - sustains IEC 61000-4-5 surge events without failure |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV contact discharge per IEC 61000-4-2 level 4 - exceeds standard handheld device ESD requirements |
| IRM | 5 nA reverse leakage at 5 V - prevents battery drain and false triggering in always-on portable circuits |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified for automotive applications - validated for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical stress per AEC standard |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-line ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUP4201MR6T1G | Higher capacitance (60 pF typ), lower ESD rating (±15 kV), same SOT23-3 package | Not suitable for USB 2.0 or HDMI; limited to low-speed UART or GPIO protection | Select when cost is prioritized over high-speed signal fidelity and ESD margin is secondary |
| Vishay ESDE05C2N | Lower clamping voltage (12 V @ 12 A), identical 35 pF capacitance, AEC-Q101 qualified | Better for 3.3 V systems with tighter voltage margins; slightly higher leakage (10 nA) | Prefer for 3.3 V automotive modules where sub-12 V clamping improves safety margin for downstream logic |
Compared with NUP4201MR6T1G and ESDE05C2N, PESD5V0S2BT delivers superior ESD robustness (±30 kV), optimal 5 V system compatibility, and lowest leakage - making it the preferred choice for high-reliability, high-speed consumer and automotive interfaces.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for PESD5V0S2BT?
The PESD5V0S2BT has a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and an ambient operating range of −55 °C to +150 °C. It is qualified per AEC-Q101 for automotive under-hood applications and supports reflow soldering profiles compliant with JEDEC J-STD-020.
Can PESD5V0S2BT protect both unidirectional and bidirectional signal lines?
Yes - its symmetrical bidirectional structure allows protection of signals with positive or negative polarity relative to ground, including USB D+/D−, HDMI TMDS pairs, and I²C SDA/SCL lines, without requiring external polarity configuration.
How does the common cathode (pin 3) connection affect PCB layout?
Pin 3 must be connected to a low-inductance ground plane with minimal trace length (<2 mm recommended). Shared ground vias or split planes degrade clamping performance; dedicated short-path grounding ensures effective 14 V clamping at 12 A surge current.
Is PESD5V0S2BT compatible with lead-free assembly processes?
Yes - the device is RoHS-compliant and qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020, with a maximum peak temperature of 260 °C. The SOT23 footprint matches standard IPC-7351B land patterns for TO-236AB packages.
