Product details
Overview
PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 from Nexperia is a quad-channel unidirectional ESD protection diode array designed for high-speed USB 2.0 data lines. It features 5.5 V working voltage, 15 kV HBM ESD rating per IEC 61000-4-2, and 0.9 pF typical capacitance per channel - enabling low-signal-distortion protection in portable USB interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 datasheet, PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 pinout, PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 application, or PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include channel count, clamping voltage at 1 A (max 14 V), low dynamic resistance (0.3 Ω typ), and compatibility with 0.4 mm pitch DFN1310-6 package layout.
Technical Context
This device integrates four independent low-capacitance ESD protection diodes in a single monolithic silicon chip, each connected between I/O and ground. Its architecture uses planar silicon avalanche diodes with integrated series resistors to limit peak current during transient events while preserving signal integrity on differential USB D+/D− pairs and auxiliary lines.
The device operates within −40 °C to +125 °C ambient range and supports bidirectional transient suppression via grounded cathode configuration. It meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±15 kV contact / ±20 kV air) and ISO 10605 (±30 kV) standards without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| ESD Rating (IEC 61000-4-2) | ±15 kV contact, ±20 kV air – ensures robust handling and system-level surge immunity in consumer USB ports |
| Working Voltage (VRWM) | 5.5 V – matches USB 2.0 signaling voltage and prevents leakage during normal operation |
| Clamping Voltage (VC @ 1 A) | Max 14 V – limits downstream IC stress during ESD transients without violating 5 V logic rail margins |
| Capacitance (CJ) | 0.9 pF per channel – preserves signal rise/fall times & eye diagram integrity on 480 Mbps USB 2.0 links |
| Dynamic Resistance (RDYN) | 0.3 Ω typical – minimizes voltage overshoot during fast ESD pulses (tR = 0.7 ns) |
| Package | DFN1310-6 (1.3 × 1.0 × 0.5 mm) – enables compact routing near USB connectors with 0.4 mm pitch |
Pinout & Package
DFN1310-6 package with exposed thermal pad (pin 6). Compact 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm footprint optimized for space-constrained USB Type-A/AB port layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Channel 1 Anode (I/O1) | Protected input for first USB signal line (e.g., D+) |
| 2 | GND | Common ground reference for all four ESD paths |
| 3 | Channel 2 Anode (I/O2) | Protected input for second USB signal line (e.g., D−) |
| 4 | Channel 3 Anode (I/O3) | Protected input for auxiliary line (e.g., ID or VBUS sense) |
| 5 | Channel 4 Anode (I/O4) | Protected input for fourth line (e.g., shield or sideband) |
| 6 | Thermal Pad (GND) | Enhances heat dissipation during repeated ESD strikes and improves grounding integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad-channel unidirectional protection | Four independent low-CJ diodes in one die - reduces PCB area vs. discrete solutions and ensures matched channel behavior |
| Ultra-low capacitance (0.9 pF) | Maintains USB 2.0 signal fidelity up to 480 Mbps without equalization or pre-emphasis |
| Low clamping voltage (14 V max @ 1 A) | Protects 5 V-tolerant PHYs without triggering overvoltage lockout or latch-up |
| DFN1310-6 package with thermal pad | Enables automated optical inspection (AOI) and improves thermal performance under repetitive ESD stress |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPD4E001DRYR | 0.75 pF/channel, 5.5 V VRWM, but only rated to ±12 kV HBM (IEC 61000-4-2 Level 3) | Suitable for cost-sensitive consumer electronics where full Level 4 immunity is not mandated | Select when lower capacitance is prioritized over maximum ESD robustness |
| ESD5V3U4-2/TR | 5.3 V VRWM, 12 kV contact ESD rating, higher 1.2 pF capacitance | Better suited for legacy USB 1.1 designs or non-critical auxiliary lines | Choose if tighter VRWM margin is needed for 5 V tolerant I/O with narrow supply headroom |
Compared with TPD4E001DRYR and ESD5V3U4-2/TR, PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 delivers superior IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 immunity and lower dynamic resistance - critical for high-reliability USB 2.0 ports in industrial and automotive systems where field failure risk must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum peak pulse current (IPP) this device can handle?
The PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 is rated for 4 A peak pulse current per channel under the 8/20 µs waveform defined in IEC 61000-4-5. This corresponds to sustained energy absorption of 0.25 J per channel, verified through standardized surge testing on production lots.
Does this part require external bias or control signals?
No. The PUSBM5V5X4-TL,115 operates passively as a clamping diode array with no external power, enable, or configuration pins. It functions solely based on its internal PN junction characteristics and requires no firmware, timing setup, or external circuitry.
Can it be used on USB 3.0 or USB-C SuperSpeed lanes?
No. With 0.9 pF/channel, it exceeds the ≤0.3 pF requirement for USB 3.0 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) signal integrity. It is qualified only for USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and lower-speed interfaces where its capacitance and clamping performance are validated.
Is the thermal pad (pin 6) electrically isolated or must it be grounded?
The thermal pad is internally connected to GND (pins 2 and 6 share the same potential). It must be soldered to a PCB ground plane to ensure proper ESD current shunting and thermal dissipation - floating or unconnected pads degrade both electrical and thermal performance.
