Product details
Overview
1N6289AHE3_B/C from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed for primary overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 53.2–58.8 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 47.8 V maximum standoff voltage (VWM), 77.0 V clamping voltage at 19.5 A peak pulse current, 1500 W peak pulse power rating (10/1000 µs), and operates across –55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range - deployed in automotive ECUs, industrial PLC I/O modules, and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N6289AHE3_B/C datasheet, 1N6289AHE3_B/C pinout, 1N6289AHE3_B/C application, or 1N6289AHE3_B/C equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance (RθJL = 15.4 °C/W), JEDEC 1.5KE package dimensions, and direct alternative part comparisons - all validated against Vishay Document #88301 (Rev. 09-Aug-2022).
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode uses a glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for fast transient response (<1 ns) and low incremental surge resistance. Its clamping behavior is defined by a 10/1000 µs waveform with 0.01% duty cycle, and it sustains 200 A non-repetitive forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine) while maintaining VF ≤ 5.0 V at 100 A.
The device is rated for 6.5 W steady-state power dissipation on an infinite heatsink at TL = 75 °C, with thermal resistance from junction to lead of 15.4 °C/W. It meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker testing (HE3 suffix) and UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements for molded epoxy encapsulation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 53.2 V / 58.8 V at 1.0 mA test current - defines precise voltage threshold where clamping initiates under transient stress |
| VWM | 47.8 V maximum - ensures reliable blocking of normal operating voltage without leakage or conduction |
| VC @ IPPM | 77.0 V at 19.5 A - limits downstream component voltage exposure during 1500 W transient events |
| PPPM | 1500 W (10/1000 µs waveform) - enables robust protection against lightning-induced surges and inductive switching spikes |
| IFSM | 200 A (8.3 ms half-sine) - supports high-energy single-event surge handling without bond wire failure |
| TJ range | –55 °C to +175 °C - allows deployment in under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and outdoor telecom enclosures |
| RθJL | 15.4 °C/W - enables predictable thermal design when mounted to PCB copper pour or chassis |
Pinout & Package
Package: JEDEC-standard Case Style 1.5KE - axial-leaded, molded epoxy body (UL 94 V-0), 0.375" (9.5 mm) lead length, matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 48 V battery-connected ECUs from load dump transients up to 60 V sustained for 400 ms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between battery rail and input capacitor to clamp surges before they reach DC/DC converters and MCU power inputs. Use Value: Clamps 1500 W transients at 77.0 V, limiting stress on 65 V-rated input stages and enabling compliance with ISO 16750-2. |
Use Scenario: Shielding 24 V analog sensor outputs (e.g., pressure, temperature) from ESD and cable discharge events in factory automation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TVS installed at connector entry point to shunt fast transients (<1 ns rise time) directly to chassis ground before reaching op-amp front-end. Use Value: Sub-1 ns response prevents latch-up in precision ADC drivers and maintains signal integrity under IEC 61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact discharge. |
| Telecom DC Power Input Protection | Motor Drive Control Signal Protection |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding -48 V telecom rectifier outputs against lightning-induced surges entering via long feeder lines. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS connected between -48 V rail and system ground to absorb common-mode surges coupled onto power bus. Use Value: Withstands 200 A surge current and dissipates 1500 W pulses, meeting Telcordia GR-1089-CORE Level 3 surge immunity. |
Use Scenario: Protecting isolated gate driver enable lines in 3-phase inverters from cross-talk and ground bounce during high-dI/dt switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TVS placed on logic-level signal path between controller and gate driver IC to suppress sub-100 ns ringing and overshoot. Use Value: Low capacitance and fast clamping prevent false triggering of gate drivers while preserving PWM timing accuracy. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ58A-E3/52 | DO-214AA (SMB) package; lower PPPM = 600 W; VBR = 64.4–71.2 V; VC = 93.6 V @ 6.4 A | Compact surface-mount alternative for space-constrained PCBs; unsuitable for 1500 W surge events | Select when board area is critical and surge energy is limited to IEC 61000-4-5 Level 2 (1 kV/2 kA) |
| 1.5KE56AHE3_A | Same 1.5KE package and electrical specs; HE3_A suffix indicates earlier revision (Class 1A whisker test vs. Class 2) | Identical performance in automotive and industrial use; differs only in whisker test compliance level | Prefer 1N6289AHE3_B/C for new designs requiring JESD 201 Class 2 reliability in extended-temperature environments |
Compared with SMBJ58A-E3/52, the 1N6289AHE3_B/C delivers 2.5× higher surge power handling and tighter VC margin, making it suitable for harsher transients; versus 1.5KE56AHE3_A, it offers enhanced whisker resistance for long-life deployments without sacrificing electrical performance.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for 1N6289AHE3_B/C?
The 1N6289AHE3_B/C has a specified breakdown voltage range of 53.2 V to 58.8 V at 1.0 mA test current, representing a ±5% tolerance around the nominal 56 V rating. This tight VBR window ensures consistent clamping onset across production lots and supports reliable overvoltage margining in 48 V systems. The 1N6289AHE3_B/C datasheet (Vishay Doc #88301) confirms this range under TA = 25 °C conditions.
Is 1N6289AHE3_B/C AEC-Q101 qualified?
Yes, the 1N6289AHE3_B/C is AEC-Q101 qualified per Vishay Document #88301 (Rev. 09-Aug-2022), specifically under the HE3_B suffix designation. Qualification covers temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and mechanical shock testing required for automotive under-hood and chassis applications. The 1N6289AHE3_B/C meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, distinguishing it from commercial-grade variants.
What is the clamping voltage of 1N6289AHE3_B/C at its rated peak pulse current?
The 1N6289AHE3_B/C clamps to a maximum of 77.0 V at its rated peak pulse current of 19.5 A (10/1000 µs waveform). This value is measured per standard test conditions in Vishay's datasheet and reflects the actual voltage seen by downstream components during worst-case transient events. The low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.33) makes the 1N6289AHE3_B/C especially effective for protecting 65 V-rated power stages.
Can 1N6289AHE3_B/C be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, the 1N6289AHE3_B/C is a unidirectional TVS diode, indicated by the "A" suffix and absence of "CA" in its part number. Bidirectional variants (e.g., 1N6289CAHE3_B/C) exist in the same family but are distinct orderables. Using the 1N6289AHE3_B/C in reverse-biased AC applications would result in forward conduction and potential failure; always verify polarity marking - the band denotes the cathode end for correct orientation.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) for 1N6289AHE3_B/C?
The 1N6289AHE3_B/C has a typical junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 15.4 °C/W, as specified in Vishay Document #88301. This parameter enables accurate thermal modeling when the device is soldered to PCB copper or mounted to a metal chassis. Combined with its 175 °C max junction temperature, the 1N6289AHE3_B/C supports high-power transient absorption without thermal runaway in properly heatsinked layouts.
