Nexperia 1-Element Uni-Directional ESD Protection Diode 160W 3-Pin SOT-23 PESD36VS2UT,215

Nexperia PESD36VS2UT,215 is a 1-Element Uni-Directional Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection Diode engineered to provide robust transient voltage suppression in electronic circuits. It features a common anode diode configuration packaged in a compact 3-pin SOT-23 surface-mount device, ideal for space-constrained applications in industrial and electronic systems.

This diode supports a peak pulse power dissipation of 160W, safeguarding sensitive components from high energy spikes caused by electrostatic discharges and other transient events. The device operates within an ambient temperature range from -55°C to 150°C, making it suitable for reliable use in demanding industrial and commercial environments.

The PESD36VS2UT,215 model exhibits a minimum breakdown voltage of 40V and a maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 36V, allowing it to effectively clamp voltage spikes up to 60V. Its extremely low maximum reverse leakage current of 1μA enhances energy efficiency and reduces unnecessary power dissipation during normal circuit operation.

This ESD Protection Diode is designed primarily to protect up to two signal lines, preventing damage due to electrostatic interference or voltage transients in electronic equipment. The small outline transistor (SOT-23) package simplifies automated assembly and reduces PCB footprint without compromising on performance.
