STMicroelectronics 2-Element Uni-Directional TVS Diode Array, 6-Pin SOT-23 ESDALCL6-2SC6

STMicroelectronics ESDALCL6-2SC6 is a 2-element uni-directional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode array designed for surface mount applications. Packaged in a compact 6-pin SOT-23 configuration, this TVS diode array is developed to provide robust electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for sensitive electronic circuits such as USB ports and other interface lines.

The device features a complex diode configuration with a minimum breakdown voltage of 6 volts and a clamping voltage of 17 volts, enabling it to protect components from voltage spikes up to 5 amps peak pulse current. The maximum reverse stand-off voltage is rated at 3 volts, allowing protection close to normal operating voltages while limiting leakage currents. Its maximum reverse leakage current is an extremely low 10 nanoamps, ensuring minimal current loss during normal operation.

Operating across a wide temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, the ESDALCL6-2SC6 is suitable for industrial and commercial electronics environments. The diode array comes with two elements per chip, which enhances its ability to protect electronic equipment from transient voltage disturbances. Its surface-mount technology (SMT) SOT-23 package with dimensions of 3.05mm length, 1.75mm width, and 1.3mm height offers a small footprint for dense board layouts.

This transient voltage suppressor is ideal for use in applications such as USB port ESD protection, industrial control systems, and telecommunications equipment, where safeguarding sensitive semiconductor devices from voltage surges and electrostatic discharges is critical. Though not automotive certified, it meets standard semiconductor manufacturing quality levels.
