A form-fit compatible TVS diode with higher power and current ratings. Pinout verification is recommended.
PESD1CAN is a 24V bidirectional TVS diode in a SOT-23 package for CAN bus protection. This page reviews potential alternatives, focusing on electrical ratings and package compatibility to help you find a suitable substitute.
When using an upgraded part like NUP2105LT1G. Risk is high if using a downgraded part.
SOT-23 pinouts can vary between manufacturers. Pinout verification is always required.
This type of TVS diode is a commodity part with many available suppliers.
Direct replacement for PESD1CAN should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
The onsemi NUP2105LT1G is the most promising path, offering an upgrade in power and current handling in the same package.
The primary risk is using a substitute with a lower peak current (Ipp) rating, which could lead to device failure under surge conditions.

| Feature / factor | PESD1CAN | NUP2105LT1G | NUP2105L | Alt 3 | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | SOT-23 | SOT-23 | - | SOT-23 — Package matches. | |
| Pinout | 3 | 3 | - | Missing — Pin count is not confirmed in available data. | |
| Voltage | 24V | 24V | - | 24V — Reverse standoff voltage matches. | |
| Current | 6A | 8A | - | 9A — Higher peak pulse current. | |
| Power | 280W | 350W | - | 350W — Higher peak pulse power. |
Verified drop-in options for PESD1CAN 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.
