Product details
Overview
TS30013-M018QFNR 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), and stable 27.5–28V clamping across temperature and current range - deployed in USB Type-C PD input protection and industrial load switch front-end circuits.
For engineers reviewing the TS30013-M018QFNR datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping voltage stability under 40A surge, DFN-6 thermal and layout performance, 175pF junction capacitance at 22V, and compatibility with 22V bus systems requiring robust EOS resilience without TVS-like voltage drift.
Technical Context
The TS30013-M018QFNR 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 - enabling near-constant clamping voltage independent of peak pulse current magnitude. Its dynamic resistance is 20mΩ (measured 1–40A, 8/20μs), far lower than conventional TVS diodes.
Unlike standard TVS devices whose clamping voltage rises linearly with IPP and temperature, TS30013-M018QFNR maintains clamping within 27.5–28V from −40°C to +125°C and across 24–40A surges - verified per IEC 61000-4-5 combination waveforms (1.2/50μs voltage + 8/20μs current, RS = 2Ω).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22V - defines maximum continuous DC operating voltage on protected line without leakage or conduction. |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28V at 40A (8/20μs) - ensures downstream ICs (e.g., USB PD controllers) remain below damage threshold during worst-case surge. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40A (8/20μs) - meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 industrial surge immunity requirements for 22V systems. |
| Junction Capacitance | 175pF at VR = 22V, 1MHz - low enough for use on 22V power rails without signal integrity impact; not suitable for high-speed data lines. |
| ESD Withstand | ±30kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds automotive and industrial ESD immunity standards for connector-facing protection. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20mΩ - enables flat clamping response by minimizing IR drop across protection element during surge conduction. |
| Operating Temp. | −40°C to +125°C - supports deployment in extended-temperature industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
Pinout & Package
TS30013-M018QFNR is housed in a Pb-free, RoHS-compliant DFN-6 package measuring 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm with exposed thermal pad (no internal thermal pad required; energy dissipated in silicon). All six terminals must be connected for full 40A rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pins 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground return path for surge current; all three pins must be tied to solid ground plane with multiple vias to minimize inductance. |
| Pins 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input (e.g., VBUS in USB-C); parallel connection of all three pins maximizes current sharing and surge handling capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| FET-based shunt architecture | Replaces traditional TVS with active switching - eliminates clamping voltage drift vs. current/temperature seen in pn-junction devices. |
| Constant clamping over 24–40A | 27.5–28V window maintained across full rated surge range - simplifies margining for 22V system overvoltage protection. |
| Low dynamic resistance (20mΩ) | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast-rising transients and enables efficient energy diversion without thermal runaway. |
| High EFT immunity (±4kV) | Withstands repetitive 5/50ns bursts at 5kHz & 100kHz (IEC 61000-4-4) - critical for noisy industrial power rail environments. |
| DFN-6 footprint | 1.6mm × 1.6mm area saves >60% board space vs. SOT-23 or SOIC alternatives while supporting same 40A rating. |
Applications
| USB Type-C Power Delivery Input Protection | Industrial Load Switch Front-End Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 20–22V VBUS lines in USB-C receptacles against lightning-induced surges and connector hot-plug ESD events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary EOS shunt suppressor placed directly at connector, diverting transients before reaching USB PD controller or e-fuse. Use Value: Maintains 27.5–28V clamping at 40A and 125°C - prevents false triggering or latch-up in PD controllers that fail above 30V. |
Use Scenario: Shielding HS2950P-type load switches from EOS during field maintenance or power cycling in remote meters and robotics. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Input-stage transient clamp limiting voltage stress on internal FET gate oxide and drain-source junction. Use Value: Clamping stability ensures load switch remains within safe operating area (SOA) even during repeated 1.2/50μs surges up to ±1kV. |
| IoT Edge Node Power Rail Protection | Storage Device 22V Backup Supply Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing 22V auxiliary power inputs in battery-backed IoT gateways exposed to outdoor ESD and induced surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone EOS guard for always-on supply rails feeding MCU, radio, and sensor subsystems. Use Value: −40°C to +125°C operation and ±30kV ESD rating ensure reliability in uncontrolled environmental deployments. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding 22V backup supplies in NVMe SSDs and enterprise storage controllers against power-rail transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-energy clamping device placed upstream of DC-DC converters and PMICs. Use Value: 1120W peak pulse power rating handles capacitor discharge events without degradation over 10k+ surge cycles. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDS2211P | Same die, identical electrical specs and DFN-6 package - confirmed pin-to-pin compatible replacement per Semtech documentation. | No functional or layout change required; validated for USB-C PD and load switch use cases. | Select TS30013-M018QFNR when sourcing from Aetrix Electronics with traceable lot control and volume procurement support. |
| SMAJ22A | Standard unidirectional TVS diode; 22V VRWM, 35.5V VC @ 22.5A; higher clamping, no temperature stability, 5.0×3.2mm SMA package. | Larger footprint, higher clamping voltage limits use in tight-margin 22V systems; unsuitable for high-temp industrial designs. | Consider only if legacy board reuse mandates SMA package or cost sensitivity outweighs clamping performance. |
Compared with TDS2211P, TS30013-M018QFNR offers identical protection performance and drop-in compatibility, while SMAJ22A requires PCB redesign, sacrifices 7.5V clamping margin, and degrades significantly above 85°C - making TS30013-M018QFNR the optimal choice for new 22V EOS-critical designs.

FAQ
What is the exact clamping voltage specification for TS30013-M018QFNR at 40A surge current?
The TS30013-M018QFNR clamps at 27.6–28V when subjected to a 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs waveform, 1.2/50μs voltage component, RS = 2Ω), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of its official datasheet. This value remains stable across −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature - a key differentiator from standard TVS diodes.
Is TS30013-M018QFNR pin-compatible with TDS2211P?
Yes, TS30013-M018QFNR is pin-to-pin compatible with TDS2211P: both use the identical DFN-6 (1.6mm × 1.6mm) package with GND on pins 1–3 and IN on pins 4–6. Semtech confirms identical pinout, marking, and mechanical dimensions - enabling direct substitution without PCB modification.
Can TS30013-M018QFNR be used on high-speed data lines like USB SuperSpeed or PCIe?
No, TS30013-M018QFNR is not suitable for high-speed data lines. Its 175pF junction capacitance at 22V would severely degrade signal integrity on differential pairs. It is intended exclusively for 22V power or low-frequency I/O lines - use RClamp3371ZC (<0.25pF) for USB SS/DP/DM lines instead.
What is the maximum continuous operating voltage for TS30013-M018QFNR?
The maximum continuous reverse stand-off voltage (VRWM) of TS30013-M018QFNR is 22V - meaning it reliably blocks voltages up to this level under normal operation with leakage current ≤600nA. Exceeding 22V risks premature conduction and accelerated wear.
Does TS30013-M018QFNR require a thermal pad or heatsink on the PCB?
No, TS30013-M018QFNR does not require an external thermal pad or heatsink. Its FET-based architecture dissipates surge energy efficiently in silicon, and the datasheet explicitly states "no thermal pad is needed." Layout focus should instead be on low-inductance grounding via multiple vias to pins 1–3.
