Product details
Overview
SD24CQ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a bidirectional transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode designed for ESD protection of high-speed data lines in portable electronics. It features a 24V reverse standoff voltage, 26.7V minimum breakdown voltage, 35.0V clamping voltage at 1A, 24pF typical channel capacitance, and ±30kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact/air ESD rating - enabling robust protection in USB, HDMI, and audio interfaces of smartphones and digital cameras.
For engineers reviewing the SD24CQ-7 datasheet, SD24CQ-7 pinout, SD24CQ-7 application, or SD24CQ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include low capacitance for signal integrity, AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive infotainment ports, bidirectional surge handling up to 7A (8/20µs), and SOD323 footprint compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates in bidirectional avalanche mode to clamp both positive and negative transients symmetrically across its terminals. Its 24pF input capacitance is optimized for <1Gbps data lines, while the 26.7V VBR ensures reliable triggering before damage to downstream ICs like USB transceivers or camera sensor interfaces.
The device meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±30kV contact/air) and IEC 61000-4-5 (lightning surge) requirements. Thermal design leverages a 500°C/W junction-to-ambient resistance on standard FR-4, supporting continuous operation up to +150°C ambient when derated per Figure 1.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 24.0V - Maximum continuous operating voltage before leakage exceeds 500nA; sets safe margin below IC I/O rail voltage. |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 26.7V min @ 1mA - Guaranteed avalanche initiation threshold; ensures consistent clamping onset across production lots. |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 35.0V @ 1A, 45.0V @ 7A (8/20µs) - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during surge; limits stress on 3.3V/5V interface ICs. |
| Channel Capacitance (CT) | 24pF typ @ 0V, 1MHz - Enables use on USB 2.0 and MIPI D-PHY lanes without signal rise-time degradation. |
| ESD Rating | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - Full Level 4 immunity; eliminates need for secondary ESD stages in handheld designs. |
| Peak Pulse Power | 315W @ 8/20µs - Supports transient energy absorption in compact SOD323 package without thermal runaway. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD323 - ultra-compact surface-mount plastic package (1.30 × 1.70 × 0.90 mm), RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Transient current sink (negative polarity) | Connects to protected I/O line; conducts during negative ESD events toward ground or VCC. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Transient current sink (positive polarity) | Connects to same I/O line; conducts during positive ESD events toward ground or VCC; bidirectional symmetry enables single-device protection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional ESD Clamping | Symmetric VBR and VCL for ±30kV protection without polarity constraints on data lines. |
| Ultra-Low 24pF Capacitance | Preserves signal integrity on high-speed interfaces (e.g., USB 2.0, eMMC, MIPI) without added impedance mismatch. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Validated for automotive infotainment and telematics ports requiring change-controlled manufacturing and PPAP documentation. |
| Green, Lead-Free Construction | Halogen- and antimony-free molding compound (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb); compliant with RoHS 3 and IATF 16949 processes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar bidirectional TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ24A-TP (Microchip) | Unidirectional; 24V VRWM, 38.9V VCL @ 7A; SMA package (4.5×2.7mm) | Requires separate devices per polarity; larger footprint limits high-density routing. | Select only if unidirectional topology is mandated and board space permits SMA size. |
| SP1003-01UTG (Littelfuse) | Bidirectional; 24V VRWM, 25pF CT, ±30kV ESD; SOD-323 package but 350W PPP rating vs. 315W | Nearly identical form-factor and performance; slightly higher clamping (36.0V @ 1A). | Drop-in replacement where tighter clamping tolerance is not critical; verify TLP curve match for 10/100ns pulses. |
Compared with SMAJ24A-TP and SP1003-01UTG, SD24CQ-7 delivers the lowest clamping voltage (35.0V @ 1A) in the SOD323 footprint while maintaining full bidirectionality and AEC-Q101 compliance - making it optimal for space-limited, high-reliability portable and automotive data-line protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum peak pulse current rating for SD24CQ-7?
The SD24CQ-7 is rated for 7A peak pulse current (IPP) under the standardized 8/20µs waveform per IEC 61000-4-5. This value is validated in the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table and corresponds to a clamping voltage of 45.0V. The device also supports higher transient currents (up to 30A) under Transmission Line Pulse (TLP) testing with 10/100ns duration, delivering 37.9V clamping.
Is SD24CQ-7 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - SD24CQ-7 is AEC-Q101 qualified, PPAP capable, and manufactured in IATF 16949 certified facilities. Its operating temperature range of −65°C to +150°C, halogen-free "Green" construction, and traceable lot control meet automotive infotainment and telematics system requirements, particularly for HDMI, USB, and camera interface protection.
How does the 24pF channel capacitance impact high-speed signal integrity?
The 24pF typical capacitance at 0V and 1MHz minimizes loading on differential data lines such as USB 2.0 (480Mbps) and MIPI D-PHY. Measured eye diagrams show <5% rise-time degradation and no measurable jitter increase when placed within 3mm of connectors - confirming suitability for signal rates up to 1Gbps without equalization.
Can SD24CQ-7 replace unidirectional TVS diodes in existing designs?
No - SD24CQ-7 is strictly bidirectional and cannot substitute for unidirectional TVS diodes (e.g., SMAJ24A) without circuit review. Its symmetrical clamping requires both terminals to connect to the same I/O net, whereas unidirectional devices reference one terminal to ground. Redesign is needed to ensure proper biasing and avoid forward conduction during normal operation.
