Product details
Overview
1KSMB82AH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 1000W surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-214AA (SMB) package, with breakdown voltage 77.9–86.1 V, stand-off voltage 70.1 V, clamping voltage 113 V at 8.8 A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
For engineers reviewing the 1KSMB82AH datasheet, 1KSMB82AH pinout, 1KSMB82AH application, or 1KSMB82AH equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 10/1000 µs surge rating, ISO 7637-2 pulse immunity, moisture sensitivity level 1, and compatibility with automated SMT placement on PCBs requiring robust ESD and load-dump protection.
Technical Context
The 1KSMB82AH operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, designed to clamp transient overvoltages above its breakdown threshold while maintaining low leakage (<1 µA at 70.1 V) during normal operation. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable VBR tolerance and long-term reliability under repetitive stress.
It delivers 1000 W peak pulse power per 10/1000 µs waveform, with fast response time <1.0 ps, and thermal resistance RθJL = 20 °C/W enabling effective heat dissipation in high-density automotive and industrial PCB layouts.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ82A | Same DO-214AA package; VBR = 91.1–101 V; VC = 131 V at 7.6 A; lower PPPM = 600 W | Higher clamping voltage reduces margin for 12 V systems; suitable only where 131 V clamping is acceptable | Select when cost priority outweighs clamping performance and system voltage headroom allows higher VC |
| 1.5SMC82A | DO-214AB (SMC) package; larger footprint; VBR = 86.5–95.5 V; VC = 118 V at 8.5 A; PPPM = 1500 W | Requires PCB layout change; better thermal performance but incompatible with SMB-restricted board space | Choose when higher surge energy handling and thermal derating are required, and board area permits SMC footprint |
Compared with SMBJ82A and 1.5SMC82A, the 1KSMB82AH offers optimal balance of 1000 W surge capability, tight 77.9–86.1 V VBR tolerance, and SMB footprint-making it preferred for space-constrained automotive modules where clamping voltage must stay below 115 V.

FAQ
What is the polarity configuration of the 1KSMB82AH?
The 1KSMB82AH is a unidirectional TVS diode, with cathode marked by a band on the DO-214AA package. It conducts only during reverse-biased overvoltage events and blocks forward current like a standard rectifier. This polarity enables precise clamping on positive-rail transients without affecting normal DC operation-critical for 12 V automotive supply protection where the cathode connects to the protected line and anode to ground.
Does the 1KSMB82AH meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, the 1KSMB82AH is AEC-Q101 qualified, having passed stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and ESD per JESD22-A114. Its qualification confirms suitability for under-hood and cabin automotive applications such as body control modules and infotainment power supplies-where reliability under thermal, vibration, and electrical stress is mandatory.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 1KSMB82AH during a 1000 W surge?
The 1KSMB82AH has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 113 V at 8.8 A, measured under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value represents the peak voltage seen by downstream components during full-rated surge events and is essential for verifying voltage margin against IC absolute maximum ratings-e.g., ensuring microcontrollers with 16 V absolute max inputs remain within safe limits.
Can the 1KSMB82AH be used in bidirectional applications?
No-the 1KSMB82AH is unidirectional only. For bidirectional transient suppression, the pin-compatible 1KSMB82CAH variant must be used. The "CAH" suffix indicates symmetrical breakdown in both polarities, enabling protection of AC-coupled or differential signal lines. Substituting 1KSMB82AH in bidirectional circuits risks failure during negative transients due to lack of reverse avalanche capability.
What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of the 1KSMB82AH and how does it affect assembly?
The 1KSMB82AH has MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it may be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions (≤30 °C / 60% RH) without baking prior to reflow. This eliminates floor-life tracking and pre-bake steps in SMT lines, reducing process complexity and cost-especially valuable for high-volume automotive contract manufacturers using tape-and-reel delivery (3,000 pcs/reel).
