Product details
Overview
SESD9L5.0ST5G from onsemi is a unidirectional ESD protection diode in SOD-923 package, rated for 5.0 V working peak reverse voltage, 0.5 pF typical capacitance, 9.8 V clamping voltage at 1 A pulse, and IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±15 kV air/±10 kV contact) compliance-designed for high-speed USB 2.0 data lines and RF antenna interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SESD9L5.0ST5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include ultra-low capacitance for signal integrity, low clamping voltage for IC-level ESD robustness, SOD-923 footprint constraints, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive front-end modules.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor, leveraging silicon avalanche breakdown to clamp ESD transients before they reach sensitive downstream ICs. Its 5.0 V stand-off voltage ensures compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V logic rails while maintaining margin against normal operating voltage excursions.
Clamping occurs within <1.0 ns, limiting voltage overshoot during IEC 61000-4-2 events. The 0.5 pF junction capacitance minimizes signal distortion on high-frequency lines up to 480 Mbps (USB 2.0 HS), and its 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm SOD-923 package supports dense PCB layouts near connectors and antennas.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 5.0 V - defines maximum continuous DC or RMS voltage the diode blocks without leakage exceeding 1.0 µA |
| Clamping Voltage (VC) | 9.8 V @ IPP = 1 A - peak voltage seen by protected IC during 8/20 µs surge, critical for IC input stage survivability |
| Junction Capacitance (C) | 0.5 pF @ VR = 0 V, f = 1 MHz - enables minimal insertion loss and phase shift on USB 2.0 and RF antenna paths |
| ESD Withstand (IEC 61000-4-2) | ±15 kV air / ±10 kV contact - meets Level 4 immunity for handheld and automotive infotainment ports |
| Package | SOD-923 (Case 514AB) - 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.4 mm footprint, compatible with standard 0201 reflow profiles (MSL 1, 260°C peak) |
| Leakage Current (IR) | 1.0 µA @ VRWM - ensures negligible standby power draw in battery-powered USB peripherals |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 5.4 V min @ IT = 1 mA - guarantees reliable turn-on margin above VRWM to avoid false triggering |
Pinout & Package
SOD-923 surface-mount package: 2-terminal, cathode-marked (band), 0.4 mm profile, Pb-free matte tin finish, MSL 1 rated.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Protected Line Anode Connection | Connected to I/O line (e.g., USB D+); clamps positive transients to VCC rail when used with bias |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference Node | Tied to ground or VCC depending on unidirectional configuration; determines polarity of clamping action |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low 0.5 pF capacitance | Maintains signal integrity on 480 Mbps USB 2.0 differential pairs without equalization overhead |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive cabin electronics including USB-C ports and telematics antenna feeds |
| Sub-1 ns response time | Activates before ESD pulse energy couples into IC input structures, preventing latch-up or gate oxide damage |
| Low 9.8 V clamping at 1 A | Keeps stressed voltage below absolute maximum ratings of 1.8 V/3.3 V/5 V interface ICs (e.g., USB transceivers) |
| SOD-923 footprint | Enables placement directly at board edge connectors with minimal trace inductance, maximizing protection efficacy |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ESD9L5.0ST5G | 0.5 pF, 5.0 V VRWM, SOD-923 | Standard unidirectional USB/antenna protection | Baseline reference part with full AEC-Q101 validation |
| TPD2E001DRYR | 1.0 pF, 5.5 V VRWM, SOT-553 | Higher capacitance limits use to ≤12 Mbps interfaces; larger 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm footprint | Preferred where higher surge current rating (IEC 61000-4-2 ±20 kV) outweighs capacitance penalty |
Compared with TPD2E001DRYR, SESD9L5.0ST5G offers half the capacitance for high-speed signal paths but lower surge rating; compared with ESD9L3.3ST5G, it provides higher stand-off for 5 V systems while retaining identical package and clamping performance.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SESD9L5.0ST5G under IEC 61000-4-2 testing?
The SESD9L5.0ST5G exhibits a maximum clamping voltage of 9.8 V when subjected to a 1 A peak pulse current per IEC 61000-4-2 waveform. This value is measured across the device terminals during standardized ESD events and ensures downstream ICs remain within safe operating voltage limits. The SESD9L5.0ST5G maintains this clamping performance consistently across its qualified temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C).
Is SESD9L5.0ST5G suitable for bidirectional signal lines like USB D+/D−?
Yes, SESD9L5.0ST5G is configured as a unidirectional TVS and must be used with appropriate biasing-typically paired with a second diode or referenced to VBUS-to protect bidirectional lines such as USB D+ and D−. Its 5.0 V VRWM aligns with standard 5 V USB power rails, and its 0.5 pF capacitance prevents signal integrity loss. The SESD9L5.0ST5G is not internally bidirectional but is routinely deployed in complementary arrangements for full-duplex interface protection.
Does SESD9L5.0ST5G meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, SESD9L5.0ST5G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, making it suitable for automotive applications including infotainment USB ports, telematics antenna feeds, and body control module interfaces. It complies with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±15 kV air/±10 kV contact) and operates across −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. The SESD9L5.0ST5G also features Pb-free matte tin plating and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating for robust reflow assembly.
What is the leakage current specification for SESD9L5.0ST5G at rated voltage?
The SESD9L5.0ST5G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current of 1.0 µA at its working peak reverse voltage of 5.0 V (VRWM), measured at 25 °C ambient. This low leakage ensures minimal impact on battery life in portable devices and avoids loading effects on high-impedance sensor or RF bias networks. The SESD9L5.0ST5G maintains leakage below 10 µA across its full operating temperature range per characterization data.
Can SESD9L5.0ST5G be used in place of SESD9L3.3ST5G?
SESD9L5.0ST5G is not a direct replacement for SESD9L3.3ST5G due to its higher 5.0 V working peak reverse voltage versus 3.3 V. Substituting it in 3.3 V systems risks insufficient clamping margin and potential false triggering. However, in 5 V applications-such as USB VBUS lines or 5 V logic interfaces-the SESD9L5.0ST5G provides superior stand-off headroom. Always verify system voltage tolerances before interchanging SESD9L5.0ST5G and SESD9L3.3ST5G.
