Product details
Overview
TSM24CADBZRQ1 from Texas Instruments is a bidirectional automotive-grade TVS diode in SOT-23 (DBZ) package, designed for surge and ESD protection of CAN/LIN signal lines in 12-V EV charging systems. It delivers ±24 V working voltage, 40 V clamping at 24 A (8/20 µs), 12 pF typical line capacitance, and ±30-kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD rating - enabling robust EMC compliance in CHAdeMO/CCS/GB/T communication interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TSM24CADBZRQ1 datasheet, TSM24CADBZRQ1 pinout, TSM24CADBZRQ1 application, or TSM24CADBZRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include low-capacitance protection for high-speed automotive networks, IEC 61000-4-5 (1 kV/42 Ω) surge survivability, bidirectional polarity support for miswiring resilience, and AEC-Q101 qualification for powertrain environments.
Technical Context
The TSM24CADBZRQ1 operates as a snapback-type bidirectional TVS diode with symmetrical breakdown at ±25.5 V (10 mA), triggering into low-dynamic-resistance conduction to clamp transients. Its design targets fast response to sub-microsecond ESD events and sustained 8/20 µs surges up to 30 A without degradation.
It integrates dual-level protection: primary surge shunting per IEC 61000-4-5 and secondary ESD suppression per IEC 61000-4-2 and ISO 10605. The device connects across signal line and ground (pins 1–2 to GND), with pin 3 unconnected - requiring no biasing or control logic.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage (VRWM) | ±24 V - matches nominal 12-V system rail with ±100% swing tolerance for CANH/CANL differential signaling. |
| Clamping Voltage (VCLAMP) | 40 V at 24 A (8/20 µs) - limits stress on downstream CAN transceivers during lightning-induced surges. |
| Peak Pulse Current (IPPM) | 30 A (8/20 µs) - sustains IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity (1 kV open-circuit, 42 Ω source impedance). |
| Line Capacitance (CLINE) | 12 pF at 1 MHz - preserves signal integrity on >1 Mbps CAN FD buses without edge distortion or timing jitter. |
| Leakage Current (ILEAK) | 75 nA max at ±24 V - avoids loading of high-impedance LIN or sensor input nodes in sleep-mode vehicle networks. |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV contact/air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds AEC-Q101 requirements and eliminates need for external ESD staging. |
| Operating Temperature | –55 °C to +150 °C - qualified for under-hood and battery-pack locations in HEV/EV powertrain modules. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (DBZ) package: 2.92 mm × 2.37 mm footprint, 1.12 mm max height, leaded 3-pin configuration compatible with AOI and standard reflow profiles (MSL Level-1, 260 °C peak).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 and 2 | I/O (bidirectional) | Surge/ESD protected signal terminal - connect one pin to protected line (e.g., CANH), the other to GND; symmetric operation enables polarity-agnostic placement. |
| 3 | No Connect (NC) | Must remain floating - internal connection absent; soldering or routing to this pin degrades clamping performance and thermal reliability. |

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting CANH/CANL lines between EVSE and vehicle during CHAdeMO/CCS handshake under outdoor lightning-prone conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional transient voltage suppressor placed directly at connector interface, clamping surges before they reach isolated CAN transceiver. Use Value: 40 V clamping ensures downstream CAN PHY remains within absolute maximum ratings (typically ±40 V), preventing latch-up or permanent damage during 1-kV/42-Ω coupled surges. |
Use Scenario: Shielding LIN or PWM control signals between OBC microcontroller and DC-DC converter in hybrid powertrain modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-leakage (75 nA max) TVS diode guarding digital inputs against ESD during service port access or assembly handling. Use Value: 12 pF capacitance avoids signal delay skew on 20 kHz–200 kHz control loops, maintaining closed-loop stability in OBC voltage regulation. |
| Automotive LIN Network Node | 24-V Digital I/O Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing LIN slave nodes (e.g., door module sensors) exposed to harness-induced transients in 12-V battery systems with 24-V jump-start capability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone bidirectional protector on LIN bus line, mounted adjacent to connector to minimize inductance in surge path. Use Value: ±24 V VRWM accommodates 24-V jump-start transients while 40 V clamping prevents LIN transceiver overvoltage beyond its 36 V abs max rating. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding 24-V digital inputs (e.g., ignition sense, brake switch) in ADAS domain controllers subjected to load dump pulses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary surge diverter on 24-V supply rail input, shunting 30 A peak current away from LDO regulators and MCU GPIOs. Use Value: 1200 W peak pulse power rating handles ISO 16750-2 pulse 5a (12 V system, 100 V/10 ms) without thermal runaway or parametric shift. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ24A-Q1 | Unidirectional, SMA package (4.5 × 2.7 mm), 500 W PPPM, 27.8 V VBR, 38.9 V VCLAMP @ 22.5 A | Larger footprint, higher clamping, unsuitable for bidirectional buses like CAN without dual-device implementation | Select only for unidirectional 24-V power rail protection where board space allows SMA and polarity is fixed. |
| TPD2E001DRYR | 2-channel unidirectional, X2SON-6, 12 pF, ±8-kV ESD, 12 V VRWM, not surge-rated | Designed for board-level ESD only; lacks IEC 61000-4-5 surge capability and automotive temperature range | Use only for non-safety-critical consumer-grade data lines - not approved for AEC-Q101 or EV charging infrastructure. |
Compared with SMAJ24A-Q1 and TPD2E001DRYR, the TSM24CADBZRQ1 uniquely combines bidirectional operation, 30-A surge rating, AEC-Q101 qualification, and SOT-23 size - making it the only drop-in solution for space-constrained, high-reliability CAN/LIN protection in automotive electrification systems.

FAQ
What is the primary circuit role of the TSM24CADBZRQ1 in automotive networks?
The TSM24CADBZRQ1 serves as a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) that shunts high-energy surges and ESD events from signal lines (e.g., CANH/CANL, LIN) to ground. Its snapback behavior clamps transients to 40 V at 24 A while maintaining low leakage (<75 nA) and minimal capacitance (12 pF), ensuring signal integrity and IC safety without disrupting normal bus operation. This function is critical in the TSM24CADBZRQ1's deployment at EV charging port interfaces and powertrain control modules.
Does the TSM24CADBZRQ1 require external biasing or control signals to operate?
No, the TSM24CADBZRQ1 is a passive, self-triggering TVS diode requiring no external power, biasing, or control logic. It operates solely based on voltage threshold: when transient voltage exceeds ±25.5 V (breakdown), it enters low-impedance conduction mode to divert current to ground. Pin 3 is NC and must remain unconnected; pins 1 and 2 form the bidirectional I/O pair. This autonomy makes the TSM24CADBZRQ1 ideal for retrofitting into existing CAN/LIN layouts without redesign.
How does the TSM24CADBZRQ1 meet automotive EMC requirements for EV charging systems?
The TSM24CADBZRQ1 meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (1 kV open-circuit, 42 Ω source) and IEC 61000-4-2 ±30-kV ESD standards out-of-the-box, eliminating need for external filtering or staged protection. Its 30 A surge rating and 40 V clamping ensure downstream CAN transceivers survive lightning-induced coupling in CHAdeMO/CCS infrastructure. Combined with AEC-Q101 qualification and –55 °C to +150 °C operation, the TSM24CADBZRQ1 satisfies ISO 11452 and CISPR 25 requirements for EV charging communication subsystems.
Can the TSM24CADBZRQ1 be used on 24-V power rails, or is it limited to signal lines?
The TSM24CADBZRQ1 is rated for ±24 V working voltage and supports 30 A IEC 61000-4-5 surges, making it suitable for both 24-V digital I/O lines and low-current 24-V power rails (e.g., sensor supply, actuator enable). However, its 1200 W peak pulse power is optimized for short-duration transients-not continuous overvoltage. For sustained 24-V rail protection, pairing the TSM24CADBZRQ1 with upstream current limiting or using it alongside a dedicated power TVS (e.g., SMAJ24A-Q1) is recommended. Its role remains defined by the TSM24CADBZRQ1's core specification: transient suppression, not steady-state regulation.
What is the significance of the NC (pin 3) designation in the TSM24CADBZRQ1 pinout?
Pin 3 of the TSM24CADBZRQ1 is internally unconnected (NC) and must remain floating-no soldering, routing, or grounding is permitted. TI's datasheet explicitly states that connecting pin 3 degrades clamping performance and thermal reliability due to parasitic coupling and altered current paths during surge events. This NC requirement is verified in the DBZ package mechanical drawings and thermal characterization data. Maintaining pin 3 as a true no-connect is essential to achieving the published 40 V clamping and 30 A surge rating of the TSM24CADBZRQ1.
