Product details
Overview
VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a single-line bidirectional asymmetrical (BiAs) ESD protection diode in SOD-523 package, rated for 5 V working voltage, with ±30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact/air discharge immunity, 12 pF typical capacitance at 2.5 V, and clamping voltage ≤11 V at 3.5 A peak pulse current. It protects high-speed data lines such as USB 2.0 or HDMI interfaces in automotive infotainment modules.
For engineers reviewing the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 datasheet, VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 pinout, VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 application, or VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, low leakage (<0.1 μA), sub-0.7 mm height, MSL level 1 rating, and BiAs-mode clamping behavior enabling asymmetric transient suppression on signal-to-ground paths.
Technical Context
The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 implements bidirectional asymmetrical (BiAs) protection: reverse clamping occurs above 6.8 V breakdown (VBR), while forward clamping limits negative transients to ≤1.9 V at 3.5 A. Its dynamic resistance is 0.2 Ω (pin 1→2) and 0.31 Ω (pin 2→1), enabling fast response to ESD events per IEC 61000-4-2.
Designed for signal-line protection, it operates from −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature, supports peak pulse power of 40 W (8/20 μs), and maintains <0.1 μA leakage at 5 V VRWM - critical for battery-powered sensor interfaces and automotive CAN/LIN bus stubs where quiescent current must be minimized.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting D+ and D− lines of USB 2.0 ports in automotive head units against hot-plug ESD and cable discharge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Signal-line ESD suppressor placed between connector and USB transceiver PHY, operating in BiAs mode to clamp both polarities. Use Value: Maintains 480 Mbps data integrity with <12 pF loading and clamps transients to <11 V, preventing PHY latch-up or I/O damage. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding HDMI TMDS+ and TMDS− differential pairs in infotainment displays exposed to user-accessible ports. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete ESD shunt per channel, grounded at chassis via shortest possible path, leveraging low dynamic resistance for fast transient diversion. Use Value: Enables compliance with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 without degrading 165 MHz pixel clock edge rates due to 12 pF capacitance at operating bias. |
| Automotive LIN Bus Node | Industrial Sensor Interface |
Use Scenario: Protecting LIN transceiver pins in body control modules subjected to assembly-line ESD and harness-induced transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-line BiAs diode tied between LIN bus and local ground, exploiting 5 V VRWM match with LIN physical layer. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification ensures reliability across −40 °C to +125 °C ambient; <0.1 μA leakage avoids disrupting LIN sleep current budget. |
Use Scenario: Shielding analog sensor outputs (e.g., pressure, temperature) in factory automation PLC I/O modules from field wiring ESD. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance shunt protector on 0–5 V or 0–10 V output lines, minimizing loading on precision op-amp buffers. Use Value: 12 pF capacitance at 0 V bias adds <0.5% gain error to 12-bit ADC front-end; clamping <11 V prevents op-amp saturation during surge. |

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 during an 8/20 μs surge?
The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 exhibits a maximum reverse clamping voltage (VC) of 11 V at 3.5 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under IEC 61000-4-5 8/20 μs waveform conditions. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and ensures downstream ICs remain within safe operating voltage limits during surge events. The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 achieves this with low dynamic resistance and optimized BiAs architecture.
Is the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 suitable for USB 2.0 data line protection?
Yes, the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 is explicitly suited for USB 2.0 protection: its 12 pF typical capacitance at 2.5 V minimizes signal distortion on 480 Mbps differential pairs, and its ±30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 rating exceeds USB-IF system-level ESD requirements. The SOD-523 footprint allows placement within 3 mm of the USB connector, preserving impedance control. The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 has been validated in reference designs for automotive USB host ports.
Does the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 require a heatsink or thermal pad?
No, the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 does not require a heatsink or thermal pad. Its SOD-523 package is rated for peak pulse power of 40 W (8/20 μs) with no thermal derating needed below +150 °C junction temperature. The device dissipates energy transiently - average power remains negligible - and PCB copper pour under the cathode pad provides sufficient thermal conduction. The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 datasheet specifies no thermal resistance requirement beyond standard reflow-compatible layout.
What is the meaning of "BiAs-mode" in the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 datasheet?
"BiAs-mode" (Bidirectional Asymmetrical) denotes that the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 provides distinct clamping behavior for positive and negative transients: reverse breakdown occurs at 6.8 V (typical), while forward clamping limits negative excursions to ≤1.9 V at 3.5 A. This asymmetry enables tighter voltage control than symmetrical diodes, especially critical for protecting mixed-voltage I/Os. The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 leverages this to protect both logic-high and logic-low signal states without external biasing.
How does the VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 compare to standard TVS diodes in terms of leakage current?
The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 specifies maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 0.1 μA at 5 V VRWM - significantly lower than typical unidirectional TVS diodes (often 1–5 μA). This ultra-low leakage preserves battery runtime in always-on automotive modules and avoids loading precision sensor outputs. The VESD05B1-02VHG3-08 achieves this via optimized silicon process and tight VBR distribution, confirmed in Electrical Characteristics Table at Tamb = 25 °C.
