Product details
Overview
1.5SMC82AT3 from ON Semiconductor is a unidirectional 1500 W peak power transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 70.1 V minimum breakdown voltage (VBR), 82 V nominal Zener voltage, 113 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 13.3 A peak pulse current (IPP), <1 ns response time, and UL 497B recognition for isolated loop circuit protection.
For engineers reviewing the 1.5SMC82AT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include working peak reverse voltage (70.1–77.8 V), clamping performance under 1 ms transients, low leakage (<5 µA @ 77.8 V), thermal resistance (RJA = 165 °C/W), and SMC surface-mount package compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
The 1.5SMC82AT3 operates as a unidirectional Zener-based TVS diode, conducting only in reverse bias above its breakdown threshold to shunt surge energy to ground. Its silicon junction exhibits low dynamic impedance and temperature coefficient (0.105 %/°C), enabling stable clamping across industrial temperature ranges (–65 to +150 °C).
It is rated for 1500 W non-repetitive peak pulse power (10/1000 µs waveform), supports forward surge current up to 200 A (8.3 ms half-sine), and meets ESD Class 3 (>16 kV HBM). The device uses ON Semiconductor's Surmetic™ SMC package with modified L-bend leads for robust solder joint reliability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power | 1500 W @ 1 ms, defines maximum single-event surge energy it can safely clamp without failure |
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 70.1 V, maximum continuous DC or peak AC voltage the device blocks before entering avalanche conduction |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 77.9 V max @ 1 mA test current, ensures reliable turn-on margin above operating rail |
| Clamping Voltage (VC) | 113 V @ 13.3 A IPP, actual voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case transient |
| Leakage Current | <5 µA @ 77.8 V, minimizes standby power loss and avoids false triggering in high-impedance circuits |
| Response Time | <1 ns, enables suppression of fast-rising ESD and lightning-induced transients before downstream IC damage |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per Human Body Model, qualifies for direct interface with user-accessible ports |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ82A | 600 W peak power, SMB package (smaller footprint), 113 V clamping at 5.3 A IPP | Limited to lower-energy transients; unsuitable for automotive load dump or industrial 1500 W requirements | Select when board space is constrained and surge threat level is ≤600 W (e.g., consumer USB ports) |
| 1.5KE82A | Through-hole DO-201 package, identical 1500 W rating and 113 V clamping, but no UL 497B recognition | Requires manual insertion; lacks certification for isolated loop safety-critical telecom/medical use | Select for legacy through-hole designs where UL 497B is not mandated and reflow compatibility is unnecessary |
Compared with SMBJ82A and 1.5KE82A, the 1.5SMC82AT3 uniquely combines 1500 W surge capability, SMC surface-mount form factor, and UL 497B certification - making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-compliant industrial and automotive PCBs requiring automated assembly.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the 1.5SMC82AT3 under maximum rated surge current?
The 1.5SMC82AT3 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 113 V when subjected to its peak pulse current (IPP) of 13.3 A, measured using a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is specified in the ON Semiconductor datasheet and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on the protected circuit during worst-case transient events. Designers must ensure downstream components tolerate this clamping level.
Does the 1.5SMC82AT3 meet UL 497B certification, and what does that mean for my design?
Yes, the 1.5SMC82AT3 carries UL 497B recognition (File #116110) for protectors in isolated loop circuits. This certification confirms it passed rigorous tests including strike voltage breakdown, endurance conditioning, dielectric withstand, and discharge performance - validating its suitability for safety-critical telecom, medical, and industrial isolation barriers where regulatory compliance is mandatory.
Can the 1.5SMC82AT3 be used in bidirectional protection configurations?
No, the 1.5SMC82AT3 is a unidirectional TVS diode and is not rated for bidirectional operation. Its electrical characteristics - including breakdown voltage, clamping, and leakage - are specified only for reverse-bias conduction. For bidirectional protection, ON Semiconductor offers separate part numbers (e.g., 1.5SMC82AT3-G for bidirectional variants), but the 1.5SMC82AT3 itself conducts only from cathode to anode during overvoltage events.
What is the thermal resistance and derating behavior of the 1.5SMC82AT3 at elevated ambient temperatures?
The 1.5SMC82AT3 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RJA) of 165 °C/W under standard FR-4 PCB conditions. Its DC power dissipation derates linearly above 25 °C at 6.1 mW/°C, and peak pulse power must be reduced per Figure 3 in the datasheet - e.g., to ~75% of 1500 W at 75 °C ambient. Proper copper pour and layout are essential to maintain safe junction temperatures.
How does the 1.5SMC82AT3 compare to the 1.5SMC75AT3 in terms of voltage ratings and application fit?
The 1.5SMC82AT3 has a higher working peak reverse voltage (70.1 V vs. 64.1 V) and nominal Zener voltage (82 V vs. 75 V) than the 1.5SMC75AT3, making it better suited for 72 V battery systems or higher-voltage industrial rails. Both share identical 1500 W rating and SMC package, but the 1.5SMC82AT3's 113 V clamping provides greater margin above 80 V-rated components compared to the 1.5SMC75AT3's 103 V clamping.
