Nexperia 2-Element Uni-Directional ESD Protection Diode 180W, SOT-23 Package PESD12VS2UT,215

Nexperia PESD12VS2UT,215 is a high-performance 2-element uni-directional ESD Protection Diode designed to protect sensitive electronic components against electrostatic discharge and transient voltage spikes. With a peak pulse power dissipation of 180 W, it efficiently clamps transient events, safeguarding circuits in electronic devices and systems. The diode follows a common anode configuration and is housed in a compact SOT-23 surface mount package, making it ideal for modern PCB designs requiring space optimization.

The diode’s minimum breakdown voltage of 14.7 V and maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 12 V ensure it activates appropriately during voltage surges without affecting normal circuit operation. Its clamping voltage of 35 V quickly suppresses voltage peaks to safe levels. With a 5 A peak pulse current rating and low reverse leakage current of 1 µA, it balances robust protection with energy efficiency.

Operating temperature ranges from -65°C to 150°C, making this diode suitable for harsh industrial, automotive, and commercial electronics environments. It is AEC-Q101 automotive standard certified, providing guaranteed reliability and quality for automotive applications.

Physical dimensions of length 3 mm, width 1.4 mm, and height 1 mm support compact and efficient PCB layouts. The diode contains two elements per chip, enhancing ESD suppression across complex circuit designs where multiple transient sources may exist.

This diode array is primarily used in industrial electronics, automotive electronics, telecommunication devices, computing equipment, and other applications requiring transient voltage protection to improve product longevity and reliability.
