Product details
Overview
USC1306.TR from Semtech is a transient diverting suppressor designed for high-energy EOS protection on 22V-rated power or I/O lines, featuring ±30kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity, 40A peak pulse current (8/20μs), 27.5–28V clamping voltage at 40A, and 20mΩ dynamic resistance. It protects USB Type-C PD buses, load switch inputs, and industrial I/O interfaces where stable clamping under temperature and current stress is critical.
For engineers reviewing the USC1306.TR datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, DFN-6 package layout guidance, real-world USB PD and load switch protection use cases, and validated alternative parts with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
The USC1306.TR 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. Unlike conventional TVS diodes, its clamping voltage remains nearly constant across 24–40A (8/20μs) due to decreasing RDS(on) under surge conditions.
It operates from −40°C to +125°C with <600nA reverse leakage at 22V, 175pF junction capacitance at 22V/1MHz, and maintains stable 27.5–28V clamping up to 125°C - a key differentiator versus standard TVS devices whose clamping rises with temperature and current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | 22 V - matches nominal USB PD bus and industrial 24V rail systems without derating. |
| Clamping Voltage | 27.5–28 V at 40A (8/20μs) - stays below typical 29V load switch FET drain-source breakdown, preventing secondary damage. |
| Peak Pulse Current | 40 A (8/20μs) - meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity for industrial equipment and USB PD endpoints. |
| ESD Withstand | ±30 kV contact & air (IEC 61000-4-2) - exceeds USB IF ESD requirements and enables robust front-end protection without additional stages. |
| Dynamic Resistance | 20 mΩ - ensures minimal voltage rise during high di/dt transients, critical for fast-rising lightning surges. |
| Junction Capacitance | 175 pF at 22V/1MHz - low enough for DC power rails and slow-slew I/O, but not suitable for high-speed data lines. |
Pinout & Package
USC1306.TR is housed in a RoHS-compliant DFN-6 package measuring 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.55 mm with exposed thermal pad (no internal thermal pad required; energy dissipated in silicon). All six terminals are electrically active: three GND pins (1–3) and three IN pins (4–6), requiring parallel connection for full 40A rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | GND | Common ground return path; all three must be connected with low-inductance vias to maximize surge current handling and minimize ground bounce. |
| 4, 5, 6 | IN | Protected line input; tied together externally to distribute surge current evenly across internal FET channels and achieve rated 40A performance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-clamp architecture | Clamping voltage varies ≤0.5 V across 24–40A and −40°C to +125°C - eliminates design margin inflation needed with TVS diodes. |
| FET-based shunt protection | Surge energy diverted through low-RDS(on) channel instead of PN-junction heating - enables higher single-pulse survivability than TVS. |
| High EFT immunity | ±4 kV per IEC 61000-4-4 (5/50 ns, 100 kHz & 5 kHz) - protects against repetitive burst noise in motor drives and PLC I/O modules. |
| Low leakage & capacitance | ≤600 nA @ 22V and 175 pF @ 1 MHz - minimizes standby power loss and signal distortion on 22V supply rails. |
Applications
| USB Type-C Power Delivery Bus Protection | Industrial Load Switch Input Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting VBus lines in USB-C receptacles supporting up to 20V/5A PD negotiation, exposed to ESD and system-level surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary EOS shunt suppressor placed between connector and PD controller or load switch input. Use Value: Maintains 27.5–28V clamping across temperature and current - prevents overvoltage damage to 29V-rated PD controllers even at 125°C ambient. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding enable and input pins of industrial-grade load switches (e.g., HS2950P) in remote meters, robotics, and factory automation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Front-end transient clamp limiting voltage seen by internal FET gate oxide and drain-source junction. Use Value: 20mΩ dynamic resistance ensures sub-100ns response and limits peak overshoot to <28.5V during 1.2/50μs surges - within safe operating area of 30V-rated switches. |
| IoT Device Power Rail Protection | Storage Device 22V Supply Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing 22V auxiliary rails in battery-powered IoT gateways with cellular/Wi-Fi modules, subject to ESD and induced surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-device solution replacing multi-stage TVS+MOV networks for space-constrained edge nodes. Use Value: 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm footprint saves >60% board area vs. discrete TVS+capacitor solutions while delivering superior clamping stability. |
Use Scenario: Protecting 22V backup or auxiliary supplies in NVMe SSD enclosures and enterprise storage controllers exposed to hot-plug transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff protector on power input before DC-DC conversion or LDO regulation. Use Value: 600 nA max leakage at 22V avoids measurable quiescent current increase - critical for always-on storage management ICs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TDS2211P | Identical pinout, same 22V working voltage, 40A rating, and DFN-6 package; datasheet confirms identical electrical specs and functional diagram. | Direct drop-in replacement - shares same marking code "T22", tape-and-reel packaging, and Semtech qualification data. | Select TDS2211P when sourcing from authorized Semtech distributors with full traceability and extended lifecycle support. |
| SP1003-220K | 22V standoff, ±30kV ESD, but only 20A IPP (8/20μs); clamping rises to ~32V at 20A; uses SOD-323 package (larger, 2-pin). | Limited to lower-energy applications; unsuitable for IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 compliance or USB PD full-power operation. | Choose SP1003-220K only for cost-sensitive, low-surge environments where 20A rating suffices and board space allows SOD-323 placement. |
Compared with USC1306.TR, TDS2211P offers identical performance and form factor with full manufacturer documentation, while SP1003-220K trades surge capability and package size for lower unit cost - making it viable only where 20A IPP and higher clamping are acceptable.

FAQ
What is the exact package type and dimensions of the USC1306.TR?
The USC1306.TR uses a 6-pin DFN package measuring 1.6 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.55 mm with exposed pad. Pin 1–3 are GND; Pin 4–6 are IN. All six terminals must be soldered - no thermal pad required, as energy is dissipated in the silicon FET structure. Land pattern follows Semtech's recommended layout with multiple ground vias.
Does the USC1306.TR meet IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity standards?
Yes, the USC1306.TR is rated for 40A peak pulse current with 8/20μs waveform per IEC 61000-4-5, and supports ±1kV combination wave (1.2/50μs voltage + 8/20μs current, RS = 42Ω) on unsymmetrical lines. Its 27.5–28V clamping at 40A ensures downstream components remain within safe operating voltage limits during Level 4 industrial surges.
How does the USC1306.TR differ from standard TVS diodes in clamping behavior?
Unlike TVS diodes whose clamping voltage rises linearly with peak current (VC = VBR + IPP × RDYN), the USC1306.TR uses a triggered FET shunt that maintains near-constant clamping (27.5–28V) from 24A to 40A and across −40°C to +125°C. This eliminates the need for oversized margins in high-temperature or high-current designs.
Can the USC1306.TR be used on high-speed data lines like USB SuperSpeed or PCIe?
No - the USC1306.TR has 175pF junction capacitance at 22V, which would severely degrade signal integrity on >100MHz differential buses. It is intended exclusively for DC power rails and low-slew I/O lines. For USB SS, DP/DM, or PCIe lanes, Semtech recommends low-capacitance TVS like RClamp3371ZC (<0.25pF).
What is the maximum continuous reverse leakage current for USC1306.TR at 22V?
The USC1306.TR specifies a maximum reverse leakage current of 600 nA at VRWM = 22V and TA = 25°C. Leakage remains below 900 nA across the full −40°C to +125°C operating range, ensuring negligible impact on standby power in battery-backed or always-on systems using the USC1306.TR.
