Product details
Overview
1KSMB75CA from Taiwan Semiconductor is a bi-directional 1000W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) in DO-214AA (SMB) package, with 71.3V minimum breakdown voltage (VBR), 64.1V stand-off voltage (VWM), and 103V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 9.7A peak pulse current. It meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/2b/3a/3b for automotive electronics protection and operates from –55°C to +175°C.
For engineers reviewing the 1KSMB75CA datasheet, 1KSMB75CA pinout, 1KSMB75CA application, or 1KSMB75CA equivalent, key selection criteria include bi-directional clamping capability, 1000W peak pulse power rating, 1.0ps response time, RoHS/halogen-free compliance, and suitability for high-energy surge suppression in DC power rails and signal lines.
Technical Context
The 1KSMB75CA uses a glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for fast transient suppression, delivering sub-nanosecond response (<1.0ps from 0 V to VBR min) and stable clamping under repetitive or single-event surges. Its bi-directional configuration enables symmetric protection of AC-coupled or floating signal paths without polarity dependency.
Thermally, it features 20°C/W junction-to-lead (RθJL) and 100°C/W junction-to-ambient (RθJA) resistance, supporting 5W steady-state dissipation at 25°C ambient. The device is rated for 1000W non-repetitive peak impulse power with 10/1000µs waveform and complies with JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ75CA (ON Semiconductor) | Same DO-214AA package; VBR = 78.8–87.0 V, VC = 103 V @ 9.7 A - identical clamping but wider VBR tolerance | Approved for AEC-Q101; preferred where automotive qualification is mandatory | Select SMBJ75CA when AEC-Q101 compliance is required; otherwise 1KSMB75CA offers equivalent surge performance at lower cost |
| P6SMB75CA (Littelfuse) | VBR = 71.3–78.8 V, VC = 103 V @ 9.7 A; same electrical specs but higher RθJA (110°C/W) | Broader global distribution; slightly reduced thermal margin in high-density layouts | Choose P6SMB75CA for logistics continuity; verify board-level thermal relief if ambient exceeds 70°C |

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range for the 1KSMB75CA?
The 1KSMB75CA has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 71.3 V to 78.8 V at 1 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This range ensures reliable avalanche initiation across manufacturing lots and temperature extremes, supporting consistent clamping behavior in 75 V nominal systems.
Is the 1KSMB75CA unidirectional or bidirectional?
The 1KSMB75CA is a bi-directional TVS diode, indicated by the "CA" suffix per Taiwan Semiconductor's ordering convention. It provides symmetrical clamping for both positive and negative transients without polarity constraints, making it suitable for AC-coupled lines, differential buses, or floating DC rails where voltage reversal may occur.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 1KSMB75CA at its rated peak pulse current?
The 1KSMB75CA exhibits a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 103 V at 9.7 A peak pulse current (IPP) under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per JEDEC test conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during worst-case surge events.
Does the 1KSMB75CA meet automotive surge immunity standards?
Yes, the 1KSMB75CA meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b requirements for automotive electronic components. Its 1000 W peak pulse power rating, fast 1.0 ps response, and 175°C junction rating make it suitable for protecting ECUs, infotainment systems, and body control modules in 12 V and 24 V vehicle architectures.
What packaging and reel quantity is offered for the 1KSMB75CA?
The 1KSMB75CA is supplied in DO-214AA (SMB) package on tape-and-reel format, with 3,000 units per reel. The matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 solderability standards, and the device carries J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity-enabling direct placement without baking or dry-pack handling.
