Product details
Overview
SZSMS24CT1G from onsemi is an automotive-grade ESD protection diode array with monolithic common-anode architecture in TSOP-6 (Case 318G) package, rated for 24 V reverse working voltage, 32 V max breakdown voltage, and 44 V clamping voltage at 8 A peak pulse current. It delivers 350 W peak power dissipation (8 × 20 µs), 15 kV IEC 61000-4-2 air discharge ESD protection, and is AEC-Q101 qualified for use in automotive serial port interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SZSMS24CT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 24 V VRWM rating, low 60–75 pF line-to-GND capacitance, TSOP-6 footprint compatibility, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics.
Technical Context
The SZSMS24CT1G implements a five-line common-anode ESD protection structure in a single monolithic silicon die, enabling simultaneous transient suppression across five independent signal lines while sharing one anode connection to VCC or bias rail. Its design targets fast response to ESD events (IEC 61000-4-2 compliant) and high-energy surges (8 × 20 µs waveform).
It operates over −40 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and maintains <1.0 µA reverse leakage at 24 V VRWM. The device's clamping behavior is characterized at two defined test currents (5 A and 8 A), delivering 40 V and 44 V VC respectively-critical for safeguarding 24 V CAN, LIN, or sensor interface receivers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SM24C.TCT | Same VRWM (24 V), but lower PPK (200 W), higher CJ (100 pF), and no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Targeted at industrial/commercial 24 V interfaces-not automotive qualified. | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and cost sensitivity outweighs surge margin. |
| TPD2E001DRYR | Lower VRWM (5.5 V), dual-channel only, 12 pF CJ, supports USB 2.0 speeds-unsuitable for 24 V lines. | Designed for low-voltage high-speed data (USB, HDMI), not 24 V automotive buses. | Reject for 24 V applications; only consider for sub-6 V digital interfaces requiring ultra-low capacitance. |
Compared with SM24C.TCT and TPD2E001DRYR, the SZSMS24CT1G uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 24 V VRWM, five-line integration, and 350 W surge capability-making it the only drop-in solution for automotive 24 V multi-signal protection where reliability and space constraints are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the SZSMS24CT1G at 8 A peak pulse current?
The SZSMS24CT1G has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 44 V when subjected to an 8 A peak pulse current under the 8 × 20 µs waveform condition. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official onsemi datasheet (Rev. 12, June 2026) and ensures safe operation for 24 V system components with sufficient voltage margin.
Is the SZSMS24CT1G pin-compatible with other SMS24C-series variants like SMS24CT1G?
Yes, the SZSMS24CT1G shares identical pinout, package (TSOP-6), and electrical characteristics with SMS24CT1G-the "SZ" prefix denotes automotive-specific traceability and PPAP capability, but does not alter pin function or mechanical layout. Both devices use Pin 1 = Cathode, Pin 2 = Anode, Pins 3–6 = Cathodes.
Does the SZSMS24CT1G support bidirectional ESD protection?
No-the SZSMS24CT1G implements a common-anode unidirectional configuration. Each cathode protects a signal line referenced to a positive supply (e.g., 24 V), conducting only during negative transients relative to VCC. For bidirectional protection, external series resistors or complementary diode arrangements are required.
What is the junction capacitance of the SZSMS24CT1G at 0 V reverse bias?
The SZSMS24CT1G exhibits a typical junction capacitance (CJ) of 60–75 pF per line at 0 V reverse bias and 1.0 MHz frequency, as measured line-to-GND. This low capacitance minimizes signal attenuation and timing skew in 24 V analog and low-speed digital interfaces such as LIN and sensor outputs.
How does the SZSMS24CT1G meet automotive reliability requirements?
The SZSMS24CT1G is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it undergoes rigorous stress testing-including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and ESD robustness-to ensure performance across −40 °C to +150 °C operating range. Its UL 94 V-0 flammability rating and Pb-free TSOP-6 construction further support automotive under-hood deployment.
