HDMI port protection with 0.5 pF loading
The D5V0F4U6SO-7 is a rail-to-rail steering TVS array from Diodes Incorporated, designed to clamp ESD transients on high-speed differential pairs without degrading signal integrity. Its 0.5 pF capacitance per channel at 1 MHz keeps the loading on HDMI data lines low enough that the eye diagram stays within the TMDS mask — a critical check for 1080p and 4K video paths.
Active lifecycle and sourcing posture
The SOT-23-6 (also designated SOT-26) package is a standard surface-mount footprint shared across many TVS arrays, so the board layout is not a custom risk. Operating temperature range spans -65°C to 150°C junction, covering the full industrial and automotive ambient envelope.
