VCAN36A2-03S-E3-08

Vishay Intertech · ESD And Surge Protection (TVS/ESD) · SOT-23-3

VCAN36A2-03S-E3-08 from Vishay Intertech, in a SOT-23-3. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1 passive One of the two bidirectional protected lines, rated for a peak pulse power of 150 W (8/20 µs, pin 1 or 2 to pin 3) with a maximum reverse working voltage of 36 V and a typical line capacitance of 8 pF (10 pF max) at VR = 0 V, 1 MHz.
2 2 passive The second bidirectional protected line, rated for a peak pulse power of 150 W (8/20 µs, pin 1 or 2 to pin 3) with a maximum reverse working voltage of 36 V and a typical line capacitance of 8 pF (10 pF max) at VR = 0 V, 1 MHz.
3 3 passive Common reference pin for the two protection paths, as all protection paths are specified between pin 1 or 2 and pin 3.
