Product details
Overview
SC3BH2F from Semtech is a transient diverting suppressor (TDS) designed for high-energy EOS protection of 22V-rated power or I/O lines, featuring ±30kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity, 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs), 27.5–28V clamping voltage at 40A, and 20mΩ dynamic resistance. It protects USB Type-C power delivery buses, load switch inputs, and industrial I/O interfaces where stable clamping under temperature and current stress is critical.
For engineers reviewing the SC3BH2F datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, DFN-6 package layout guidance, real-world USB PD and load switch protection use cases, and validated alternative parts with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The SC3BH2F uses a surge-rated FET as its primary protection element, activated by a precision trigger circuit that turns on the shunt path when transient voltage exceeds breakdown. Unlike conventional TVS diodes, its clamping voltage remains nearly constant across 24–40A (8/20μs) due to decreasing RDS(on) under surge conditions.
It operates from −40°C to +125°C with <600nA reverse leakage at 22V, 175pF junction capacitance at 22V/1MHz, and maintains stable 27.5–28V clamping across temperature - a key differentiator versus standard TVS devices whose clamping rises linearly with current and temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22V - defines maximum continuous DC bus voltage it can protect without leakage or degradation |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28V at 40A (8/20μs + 1.2/50μs combo wave, RS = 2Ω) - ensures protected ICs (e.g., USB PD controllers) stay below damage thresholds |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40A (8/20μs) - meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity for industrial equipment and USB PD systems |
| ESD Withstand | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds automotive and industrial ESD requirements without external shielding |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20mΩ - enables low-voltage drop during surge conduction, minimizing power dissipation and thermal stress |
| Junction Capacitance | 175pF at 22V/1MHz - compatible with USB Type-C VBUS protection where signal integrity is secondary to robustness |
Pinout & Package
SC3BH2F is housed in a RoHS-compliant, halogen-free DFN package measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm with 6 leads and UL 94V-0 molding compound. The package supports high-density PCB layouts and requires no thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground return for surge current; all three must be connected via low-inductance paths to maximize 40A capability |
| 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input (e.g., USB PD VBUS, load switch VIN); parallel connection ensures uniform current sharing and lowest impedance path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-clamp architecture | Clamping voltage stays within 27.5–28V from 24A to 40A and −40°C to +125°C - eliminates derating uncertainty in thermal design |
| FET-based shunt protection | Replaces traditional TVS junctions with low-RDS(on) MOSFET, reducing energy dissipation in silicon and improving reliability under repeated surges |
| High EFT immunity | ±4kV per IEC 61000-4-4 (5/50ns, 100kHz/5kHz) - protects against burst noise in motor drives and industrial PLCs |
| Low-leakage operation | <600nA at 22V - avoids loading of high-impedance power rails or battery-backed circuits |
Applications
| USB Type-C Power Delivery Protection | Load Switch Input Protection |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting the 20–22V VBUS line in USB-C receptacles supporting up to 100W PD negotiation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary EOS suppressor placed between connector and PD controller/load switch, clamping transients before they reach sensitive logic. Use Value: Maintains 28V clamping at full 40A surge and 125°C ambient - prevents false overvoltage shutdown and ensures PD compliance under worst-case thermal conditions. |
Use Scenario: Shielding the input of industrial-grade load switches (e.g., HS2950P) from lightning-induced surges in remote meters and robotics. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end transient diverter that limits voltage across the load switch's internal FET drain-source terminals during EOS events. Use Value: Keeps clamping voltage below the load switch's absolute maximum VDS, preventing catastrophic failure while enabling smaller, lower-cost switch selection. |
| Industrial I/O Line Protection | IoT Device Power Bus Protection |
|
Use Scenario: Safeguarding 24VDC control inputs in programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and factory automation sensors exposed to field wiring transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone surge protector on unregulated 22–24V supply rails feeding microcontrollers or analog front-ends. Use Value: Delivers 1120W peak pulse power handling (8/20μs) in 1.6mm² footprint - replaces bulkier discrete TVS arrays without sacrificing performance. |
Use Scenario: Securing the main power rail of battery-powered edge nodes (e.g., smart sensors, asset trackers) operating in electrically noisy environments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-leakage, high-reliability suppressor on the input of buck converters or PMICs powering SoCs and radios. Use Value: 130–600nA leakage at 22V preserves battery life; ±30kV ESD rating eliminates need for secondary ESD staging in compact enclosures. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDS2211P.C | Identical electrical specs, same DFN-6 package, identical marking code "T22" - direct Semtech-manufactured variant with tape-and-reel packaging (3,000 pcs/reel). | No functional difference; used interchangeably in production where reel quantity and traceability match BOM requirements. | Select TDS2211P.C when sourcing from authorized Semtech distributors with full lot traceability and standard reel logistics. |
| uClamp2411ZA | 24V working voltage, ±30kV ESD, but rated only for 12A (8/20μs); higher clamping (~33V at 12A); 0.25pF capacitance optimized for data lines. | Designed for CC/SBU lines in USB-C, not VBUS; insufficient peak current for load switch or industrial 22V rail protection. | Use uClamp2411ZA only for low-capacitance, low-current auxiliary lines - not a functional replacement for SC3BH2F in power rail roles. |
Compared with TDS2211P.C, SC3BH2F shares identical performance and form factor but may differ in packaging or traceability metadata; compared with uClamp2411ZA, SC3BH2F delivers 3.3× higher surge current and 5V lower clamping - making it the sole suitable choice for 22V power-line EOS protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous operating voltage for SC3BH2F?
The SC3BH2F has a reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM) of 22V, meaning it can continuously block up to 22V DC without significant leakage. This makes SC3BH2F suitable for protecting 20–22V power rails such as USB PD VBUS and industrial 24V nominal systems operating within tolerance. Exceeding 22V risks premature conduction and accelerated wear.
Does SC3BH2F require a thermal pad on the PCB?
No, SC3BH2F does not require a thermal pad. Its DFN-6 package dissipates surge energy primarily through conduction via pins 1–3 (GND) and 4–6 (IN), and the datasheet explicitly states "no thermal pad is needed." Layout best practice emphasizes low-inductance grounding using multiple vias and short, wide traces - not copper pour under the body.
How does SC3BH2F differ from standard TVS diodes in clamping behavior?
Unlike standard TVS diodes - whose clamping voltage rises linearly with peak pulse current (VC = VBR + IPP × RDYN) - SC3BH2F uses a triggered FET shunt that maintains near-constant clamping (27.5–28V) from 24A to 40A. This eliminates current-dependent voltage overshoot and removes thermal derating concerns across −40°C to +125°C.
Can SC3BH2F be used to protect high-speed data lines like USB SuperSpeed?
No, SC3BH2F is not suitable for USB SuperSpeed (TX/RX) or other high-speed differential data lines. With 175pF junction capacitance, it would severely degrade signal integrity. SC3BH2F is intended exclusively for power or low-speed I/O lines (e.g., VBUS, CC, SBU, enable signals). For data lines, Semtech recommends RClamp3371ZC (<0.25pF).
What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal SC3BH2F surge performance?
Place SC3BH2F as close as possible to the protected connector. Connect all GND pins (1, 2, 3) to a solid ground plane using ≥3 vias; connect all IN pins (4, 5, 6) in parallel with a single short, wide trace. Avoid stubs or splits - parasitic inductance directly degrades 40A surge response. Refer to Semtech's Figure 7 layout guide for land pattern and via placement.
