Overview
VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 from Vishay Semiconductors is a five-line unidirectional ESD protection diode array in SOT-363 package, rated for 16 V reverse standoff voltage, 30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact/air discharge immunity, and 3.6 A peak pulse current (8/20 μs), used to safeguard high-speed data lines such as USB 2.0 and HDMI interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 datasheet, VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 pinout, VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 application, or VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (25.3–28 V at 3.6 A), capacitance (21–33 pF at 0 V), dynamic resistance (0.53 Ω), operating temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C), and SOT-363 footprint compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 implements five independent unidirectional TVS diodes in a single SOT-363 package, each with cathode-anode polarity aligned to ground-referenced signal line protection. Its clamping behavior is characterized by a typical reverse breakdown voltage of 17.9 V and dynamic resistance of 0.53 Ω measured via TLP at 100 ns.
It meets IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±30 kV contact/air) and IEC 61000-4-5 (100 W, 8/20 μs), with thermal performance validated across −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. The device uses Sn (e3) lead plating and is MSL level 1 compliant per J-STD-020.

FAQ
What is the reverse standoff voltage of the VESD16A5-06G-G3-08?
The VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 has a reverse standoff voltage (VRWM) of 16 V, meaning it remains non-conductive up to this DC or RMS voltage level on protected signal lines. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table for VESD16A5-06G on page 3 of Vishay document 86131, and defines the maximum continuous operating voltage before leakage current exceeds 0.1 μA.
Does the VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 meet automotive qualification standards?
The VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified per the Vishay datasheet; however, the VESD16A5-06GHG3-08 variant (with "H" suffix) is explicitly marked as AEC-Q101 qualified. Engineers selecting VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 for automotive use must verify qualification status via ordering code and consult Vishay's official documentation for compliance evidence.
What is the clamping voltage of the VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 under ESD stress?
The VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 exhibits a reverse clamping voltage (VC) of 25.3–28 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 3.6 A (8/20 μs waveform). This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of Vishay document 86131 and represents the maximum voltage imposed on protected circuitry during standardized surge events.
How many protection channels does the VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 provide?
The VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 integrates five independent unidirectional ESD protection channels in a single SOT-363 package. Each channel consists of one anode and one cathode terminal, with shared cathodes forming a common ground return path-confirmed in the "Protection paths" row (Nchannel = 1 line per channel) and pin configuration diagram on pages 1 and 6 of Vishay document 86131.
What is the capacitance of the VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 and why does it matter?
The VESD16A5-06G-G3-08 has a capacitance of 21–33 pF measured at 0 V and 1 MHz, as stated in its Electrical Characteristics table. This low, controlled capacitance prevents signal distortion on high-speed interfaces like USB 2.0 and HDMI 1.4, where excessive loading would degrade edge rates, increase bit error rates, or cause eye diagram closure.
