Product details
Overview
PHDMI2FR4 from Nexperia is a 4-channel ultra-low-capacitance ESD protection diode array designed for HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort high-speed differential data lines. It delivers ±15 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD protection, 0.29 pF typical line capacitance per channel, and 0.27 Ω dynamic resistance in snap-back clamping mode - enabling signal integrity preservation up to 6 Gbps in 2160p/60 Hz video interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PHDMI2FR4 datasheet, PHDMI2FR4 pinout, PHDMI2FR4 application, or PHDMI2FR4 equivalent, key selection criteria include differential pair capacitance matching (≤0.05 pF), rail-to-rail clamping architecture, DFN2510A-10 package compatibility with 0.5 mm trace spacing, and verified HDMI 2.0 TP1/TP2 eye diagram performance with <100 ps jitter degradation.
Technical Context
The PHDMI2FR4 implements four independent bidirectional snap-back ESD protection structures, each featuring rail-to-rail clamping between VCC and GND. Its deep snap-back behavior achieves low clamping voltage (±3 V at ±5 A) while maintaining sub-0.3 pF capacitance - critical for preserving 6 GHz bandwidth in HDMI 2.0 differential channels.
It operates within –40 °C to +85 °C ambient temperature, supports 5 V DC bias, and uses a transmission-line-pulse (TLP)-validated dynamic resistance of 0.27 Ω under both positive and negative transients - ensuring consistent protection response across polarity and pulse width (100 ns and 5 ns TLP).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ESD Rating | ±15 kV contact discharge per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 - protects HDMI/DP ports against real-world human-body-model ESD events. |
| Line Capacitance | 0.29 pF typical per channel - preserves signal integrity up to 6 GHz, enabling full HDMI 2.0 2160p/60 Hz operation. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 0.27 Ω (TLP, 100 ns) - minimizes voltage overshoot during ESD transients, reducing stress on downstream SerDes receivers. |
| Clamping Voltage | ±3 V at ±5 A (IEC 61000-4-5 waveform) - limits transient voltage seen by protected ICs below safe logic thresholds. |
| Breakdown Voltage | 6–9 V (VBR at 1 mA) - ensures robust margin above 5 V HDMI supply rails while triggering reliably during ESD. |
| Capacitance Matching | ≤0.05 pF difference between differential pairs - maintains common-mode rejection and minimizes skew-induced jitter. |
Pinout & Package
PHDMI2FR4 is housed in a leadless DFN2510A-10 (SOT1176-1) package: 2.5 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.5 mm body, 0.5 mm pitch, with exposed thermal pad. The package supports high-density routing and reflow soldering using a 75 µm stencil.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | LINE1 | ESD-protected input/output for HDMI/DP differential pair CH1 (e.g., TMDS Data0+) |
| 2 | LINE2 | ESD-protected input/output for HDMI/DP differential pair CH1 (e.g., TMDS Data0–) |
| 3 | GND | Primary ground reference for clamping diodes - must be low-inductance connection to system ground plane |
| 4 | LINE3 | ESD-protected input/output for HDMI/DP differential pair CH2 (e.g., TMDS Data1+) |
| 5 | LINE4 | ESD-protected input/output for HDMI/DP differential pair CH2 (e.g., TMDS Data1–) |
| 6, 7, 9, 10 | n.c. | No internal connection - electrically isolated; may be used as thermal relief or keep-out zones |
| 8 | GND | Secondary ground terminal - improves current sharing and thermal dissipation during multi-pin ESD events |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Rail-to-rail clamping | Integrated diodes clamp signals between VCC and GND without external bias - eliminates need for pull-up resistors or auxiliary power rails. |
| Differential pair capacitance matching | ≤0.05 pF mismatch between LINE1/LINE2 and LINE3/LINE4 - ensures <0.5% skew impact on 148.5 MHz HDMI 2.0 clock recovery. |
| Pass-through signal routing | Linear pin layout (1–2–3–4–5) enables direct in-line PCB trace placement - avoids vias or bends that degrade 6 GHz impedance control. |
| Snap-back trigger mechanism | Deep negative differential resistance enables low-voltage clamping (±3 V) after breakdown - reduces energy dissipation in protected SoC I/O cells. |
Applications
| HDMI 2.0 Source Port Protection | DisplayPort 1.4 Receiver Protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NUP4202MR6T1G | Single-channel, 0.35 pF capacitance, ±12 kV ESD rating - higher capacitance and lower ESD robustness than PHDMI2FR4. | Requires four separate devices for HDMI; lacks differential pair matching and pass-through routing. | Use only when space allows discrete placement and 6 Gbps signal integrity is not required. |
| Texas Instruments TPD4E001DRYR | 4-channel, 0.6 pF typical capacitance, ±12 kV ESD - 2× higher capacitance and no snap-back clamping structure. | Higher insertion loss above 2 GHz; unsuitable for HDMI 2.0 2160p/60 Hz due to eye closure beyond spec. | Select only for legacy HDMI 1.4 or lower-speed DP 1.2a interfaces where bandwidth ≤3 GHz is sufficient. |
Compared with NUP4202MR6T1G and TPD4E001DRYR, PHDMI2FR4 uniquely combines 0.29 pF capacitance, ±15 kV ESD rating, and matched differential pair design - making it the only option qualified for production HDMI 2.0 2160p/60 Hz and DP 1.4 8.1 Gbps interfaces without signal conditioning.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by PHDMI2FR4?
PHDMI2FR4 supports HDMI 2.0 (6 Gbps) and DisplayPort 1.4 (8.1 Gbps) data rates, as confirmed by measured eye diagrams at 148.5 MHz fundamental frequency with 2160p/60 Hz video patterns. Its 0.29 pF line capacitance and matched differential structure preserve signal integrity up to 6 GHz bandwidth without measurable insertion loss degradation.
Can PHDMI2FR4 be used on 3.3 V or 1.8 V HDMI interfaces?
Yes - PHDMI2FR4 is rail-to-rail and requires no external bias. Its 6–9 V breakdown voltage provides safe margin above 3.3 V and 1.8 V logic rails, and its ±3 V clamping voltage ensures protected I/O remains within safe operating limits for both voltage domains during ESD events.
Why does PHDMI2FR4 have two GND pins (pins 3 and 8)?
Pins 3 and 8 are independent ground terminals connected internally to the same substrate node. Their dual placement improves current distribution during multi-pin ESD strikes and enhances thermal dissipation - verified in TLP testing showing symmetric clamping response across all four channels under simultaneous stress.
Is PHDMI2FR4 compliant with automotive AEC-Q200?
No - PHDMI2FR4 is not AEC-Q200 qualified. Nexperia explicitly states in its legal disclaimers that this device is non-automotive qualified and not tested to automotive temperature, reliability, or qualification standards. It is intended for consumer, computing, and industrial applications only.
