Automotive Bi Directional ESD Protection Diode for CAN BUS FD

The TESDA24VB6P02CX, designed for CAN Bus FD (CAN with Flexible Data-Rate) safeguards differential communication lines from electrostatic discharge, surge pulses, electromagnetic interference, and fast transient disturbances commonly encountered in automotive and industrial environments. Because CAN-FD supports significantly higher data rates—typically from 5 Mbps to 8 Mbps—the protection device must feature extremely low parasitic capacitance so it does not load the bus, distort the differential eye diagram, or slow signal edges.

With its ultra-low capacitance and robust surge capability, the TESDA24VB6P02CX ensures clean, stable CAN-FD communication even in harsh automotive conditions such as load dump, inductive switching, and ESD events. This allows engineers to achieve higher data-rate margins, reduce EMI design risk, and enhance overall system reliability without compromising signal integrity—an increasingly critical requirement in modern vehicle architectures.
