Product details
Overview
1.5SMC82AHE3/57T from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed for robust overvoltage protection in power and signal lines. It features a 70.1 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 77.9–86.1 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 113 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 13.3 A peak pulse current, and 1500 W peak pulse power capability with a 10/1000 µs waveform - ideal for safeguarding automotive ECUs and industrial sensor interfaces against lightning-induced transients.
For engineers reviewing the 1.5SMC82AHE3/57T datasheet, 1.5SMC82AHE3/57T pinout, 1.5SMC82AHE3/57T application, or 1.5SMC82AHE3/57T equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, SMC (DO-214AB) package with cathode band polarity marking, low incremental surge resistance, and compliance with UL 497B for telecom and automotive surge protection systems.
Technical Context
The 1.5SMC82AHE3/57T operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, leveraging glass-passivated junction technology to achieve fast response time (<1 ns) and stable clamping under repetitive transient stress. Its thermal resistance (RθJA = 75 °C/W) and junction temperature range (–65 °C to +150 °C) support reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as engine compartments and industrial motor drives.
Designed for automated SMT placement, it meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance and MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 (peak reflow 260 °C). The device delivers 13.3 A peak pulse current (IPPM) at 113 V clamping while maintaining <1 μA reverse leakage at VWM, enabling low-power standby compatibility in always-on automotive modules.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ85A-E3/57T | Higher VWM (72.2 V), higher VC (125 V), same SMC package and 1500 W rating. | Less margin between VWM and typical 48 V nominal systems; may false-trigger during brownout recovery. | Select when tighter VBR tolerance (±5%) is required and 125 V clamping is acceptable for downstream components. |
| 1.5KE82A | Through-hole DO-201 package, identical electrical specs but larger footprint and manual assembly requirement. | Not suitable for high-density SMT layouts or automated production; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification. | Choose only for legacy board redesigns where SMT conversion is impractical and automotive qualification is not mandated. |
