Product details
Overview
VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) single-line ESD-protection diode in CLP0603-2L package, rated for ±15 V working range, 5.5 pF typical load capacitance, <0.05 μA reverse leakage, and ±15 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact/air discharge immunity. It clamps fast transients on high-speed data lines such as USB 2.0 or HDMI interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 datasheet, VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 pinout, VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 application, or VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 equivalent, key selection criteria include low clamping voltage (21–26 V at 2.5 A), ultra-low package height (<0.3 mm), AEC-Q101 qualification option, and minimal line inductance due to short leads and compact CLP0603 footprint.
Technical Context
The VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 implements a silicon-based BiSy architecture with symmetrical breakdown at ±16.8 V (typ.) and dynamic resistance of 0.52 Ω (TLP, 100 ns). Its clamping behavior is characterized under both IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) and IEC 61000-4-5 (surge) waveforms, delivering 21–26 V clamping at 2.5 A peak pulse current.
Designed for signal integrity preservation, it maintains 4–6.5 pF capacitance across 0–5 V bias and achieves <0.3 mm profile via CLP0603-2L Gen2 packaging with Au-plated Ni terminations (e4), enabling placement on dense PCBs near high-speed connectors without degrading impedance matching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Voltage | ±15 V - defines maximum continuous signal swing before conduction begins |
| Clamping Voltage | 21–26 V at 2.5 A (8/20 µs) - limits transient overvoltage seen by downstream ICs |
| Load Capacitance | 5.5 pF (typ.) at 0 V - minimizes signal distortion on USB 2.0, HDMI, or MIPI lines |
| Leakage Current | <0.05 μA at 15 V - avoids DC loading of sensitive analog or reference circuits |
| ESD Rating | ±15 kV contact/air (IEC 61000-4-2) - meets industrial and automotive ESD immunity requirements |
| Package | CLP0603-2L - 0.6 × 0.3 mm, <0.3 mm height, compatible with standard 0201 reflow profiles |
| Dynamic Resistance | 0.52 Ω (TLP, 100 ns) - ensures rapid voltage stabilization during nanosecond-scale transients |
Pinout & Package
VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 uses the CLP0603-2L surface-mount package: 0.6 mm × 0.3 mm body, 0.27 mm nominal height, two terminals, gold-plated Ni leads (e4), and top-side marking "15" indicating polarity orientation per Vishay S8-V-3906.04-068.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode (for negative transients) | Connects to protected signal line; symmetrical structure means Pin 1 and Pin 2 are interchangeable in BiSy operation |
| Pin 2 | Cathode (for positive transients) | Connects to system ground; low-inductance path enables sub-nanosecond response to ESD events |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional Symmetrical Clamping | Equal ±16.8 V (typ.) breakdown ensures identical protection for positive/negative transients without polarity sensitivity |
| Ultra-Low Capacitance | 5.5 pF (typ.) at 0 V enables use on 480 Mbps USB 2.0 and other high-speed digital interfaces without signal integrity loss |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified Variant | VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 includes AEC-Q101 qualification - validated for automotive infotainment and ADAS sensor interfaces |
| Low-Inductance Layout | CLP0603-2L's short internal leads and 0.27 mm height minimize parasitic inductance, reducing overshoot during 0.7–1 ns ESD rise times |
| Gold-Plated Termination | e4 plating (Au over Ni) ensures reliable solderability and corrosion resistance in humid or high-reliability environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ESD-protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPD2E001DRYR | 0.65 pF lower typ. capacitance (4.85 pF), but higher clamping voltage (27 V at 2.5 A); no AEC-Q101 variant | Preferred for ultra-high-speed (>1 Gbps) SerDes where sub-5 pF is critical; not recommended for automotive systems requiring AEC-Q101 | Select when minimizing capacitive loading outweighs need for lowest clamping voltage or automotive qualification |
| ESD9X5.0ST5G | Higher leakage (0.1 μA max), larger SOD-523 package (1.2 × 0.8 mm), same ±15 V VRWM and ±15 kV ESD rating | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial controls where board space is less constrained and AEC-Q101 is not required | Choose for non-automotive applications needing proven field reliability with wider availability and lower unit cost |
Compared with TPD2E001DRYR and ESD9X5.0ST5G, VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 uniquely balances ultra-low height (<0.3 mm), AEC-Q101 qualification, and 5.5 pF capacitance-making it optimal for space-constrained automotive and mobile designs where mechanical clearance and qualification compliance are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the exact package type and dimensions of VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08?
The VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 uses the CLP0603-2L Gen2 package: 0.6 mm × 0.3 mm body size, 0.27 mm nominal height, and 0.24 mm terminal width. Its footprint matches JEDEC-standard 0201 layouts, and the device features top-side marking "15" with Pin 1 location indicated per Vishay document S8-V-3906.04-068. This package enables placement in tight spaces near high-speed connectors without compromising thermal or electrical performance.
Does VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 meet AEC-Q101 qualification?
Yes, VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 is an AEC-Q101-qualified part, as confirmed by Vishay's ordering code suffix "H" in the full part number. This qualification validates its reliability for automotive applications including infotainment systems, ADAS camera links, and body control modules operating across −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range.
What is the clamping voltage of VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 under real-world ESD stress?
Under IEC 61000-4-2 8/20 µs surge conditions, VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 clamps to 21–26 V at 2.5 A peak pulse current (IPPM). At lower 1 A stress, clamping is 18–20 V. These values are measured with defined test fixtures and represent actual voltage seen by protected ICs-critical for ensuring downstream transceivers remain within absolute maximum ratings during ESD events.
How does the 5.5 pF capacitance of VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 affect high-speed signal integrity?
The 5.5 pF typical capacitance (measured at 0 V, 1 MHz) of VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 introduces negligible insertion loss on USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) and HDMI 1.4 (up to 3.4 Gbps) channels when placed with short traces. At 5 V bias, capacitance drops to 4 pF, further reducing loading-enabling clean eye diagrams and maintaining signal rise/fall times essential for timing-critical interfaces.
Can VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 be used in bidirectional data lines without polarity concerns?
Yes, VCUT15G1-SD0HG4-08 is a true bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) device with matched ±16.8 V (typ.) breakdown voltage on both terminals. This eliminates polarity sensitivity-engineers may connect either pin to the signal line and the other to ground without performance degradation, simplifying layout and reducing BOM complexity in differential or bidirectional protocols like USB, HDMI, or MIPI D-PHY.
