PESD5V0U1BB is a possible 5 V SOD523 bidirectional ESD alternate with caveats.
BSD5C051U is a 5 V bidirectional low-capacitance ESD diode in SOD523. Alternatives need careful capacitance, surge, and pinout checks.
capacitance and surge ratings differ
SOD523 matches but pinout is not verified
discrete ESD diode, no firmware
candidates are active but need approval
Direct replacement for BSD5C051U should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Start with PESD5V0U1BB,115 for a 5 V bidirectional SOD523 candidate, then verify pinout and line speed.
Most candidates have much higher capacitance than the 0.5 pF target.

| Feature / factor | BSD5C051U | PESD5V0U1BB,115 | ESD5V0D5B | ESD5B5.0ST1G | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | SOD523 | SOD523 | SOD523 | SOD-523 | SOD523 / SOD-523 — same package name; ESD5V0D5B: same package name; ESD5B5.0ST1G: package aligns |
| Pinout | 2-pin bidir ESD | 2 pins | 2 pins | 2 pins | 2 pins — pin functions not shown; ESD5V0D5B: pin functions not shown; ESD5B5.0ST1G: pin functions missing |
| Voltage | 5 V | 5 V | 5 V | 5 V | 5 V — VRWM matches; ESD5V0D5B: VRWM matches; ESD5B5.0ST1G: VRWM matches |
| Application | 0.5 pF data line | 2.9 pF data line | 15 pF | 15-32 pF | 2.9 pF data line / 15 pF / 15-32 pF — higher capacitance; ESD5V0D5B: not low-cap equivalent; ESD5B5.0ST1G: conflicting values |
| Power | 60 W | missing | missing | 50 W | missing / 50 W — pulse power absent; ESD5V0D5B: not listed; ESD5B5.0ST1G: below target |
Verified drop-in options for BSD5C051U are limited in the current batch. Review candidates marked Strong match or Datasheet verified, and validate package, pinout, and electrical limits before committing a BOM change.
