BTW, 3.3V tranzorbs ARE available, NXP, Vishay and ST all do them.

Hello
I did look for tranzorbs but their breakdown voltage was not good enough at over 4V for most of them. The absolute maximum in my system is 4.0V for the processor.
I will check again.
The diode is the correct way to go here in my opinion, if we can make it work.
So we have 3V3, diode(a-k), pullup, dataline+.
Did you mean the capacitor needs to go from the 3V3 to gnd on the diode a side? How will this work if the diode is reverse biased?
Or do you mean the capacitor should go across the diode, providing an ac path to 3V3?
Kind regards
