Product details
Overview
1PMT28AT1G from onsemi is a unidirectional Zener transient voltage suppressor (TVS) in the POWERMITE® package, designed for clamping high-energy transients in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 28 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), 32.8 V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 45.4 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 4.4 A peak pulse current, and 200 W peak pulse power rating at 10/1000 µs. It is widely deployed in portable electronics power input protection.
For engineers reviewing the 1PMT28AT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 µs surge, thermal resistance to cathode tab (3.2 °C/W), JEDEC DO-216AA compliance, low-profile 1.1 mm height, and Pb-free RoHS-compliant packaging for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The 1PMT28AT1G operates as a unidirectional Zener TVS diode, leveraging avalanche breakdown to clamp transient overvoltages above its VRWM of 28 V. Its low Zener impedance and sub-1 ns response time ensure rapid suppression of ESD and lightning-induced surges before downstream ICs are damaged.
Thermally optimized via integral heatsink tabs and full metallic cathode tab, it achieves 3.2 °C/W junction-to-cathode thermal resistance - enabling sustained energy dissipation without derating in compact layouts. The POWERMITE package (DO-216AA) delivers SMA-equivalent thermal performance in 50% less footprint area (8.45 mm²).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 28 V - Maximum continuous DC or peak AC voltage the device blocks without clamping; sets minimum operating rail compatibility. |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) @ IT = 1 mA | 32.8 V (nominal) - Voltage at which avalanche conduction begins; defines threshold for reliable transient initiation. |
| Clamping Voltage (VC) @ IPP = 4.4 A | 45.4 V - Maximum voltage seen by protected circuit during 10/1000 µs surge; determines safe margin for 3.3 V/5 V logic rails. |
| Peak Pulse Power (Ppk) @ 10/1000 µs | 200 W - Energy-handling capacity for standard lightning/surge waveforms; enables IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 compliance. |
| Junction-to-Cathode Thermal Resistance (RJcathode) | 3.2 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to copper pour or thermal pad for efficient heat extraction in high-duty-cycle applications. |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | Class 3 (>16 kV) - Meets stringent electrostatic discharge immunity requirements for handheld and consumer interface ports. |
| Package | POWERMITE® (DO-216AA) - JEDEC-registered surface-mount package with 1.1 mm max height, 8.45 mm² footprint, and full metallic cathode tab. |
Pinout & Package
1PMT28AT1G uses the POWERMITE® (DO-216AA) package: a 2-terminal surface-mount device with integral heatsink tabs and full metallic cathode bottom. Cathode is marked by a polarity band; lead orientation in tape places cathode (short lead) toward sprocket holes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Cathode) | Transient current sink / clamping node | Connected to protected line (e.g., VBUS); carries full surge current to ground; thermally coupled to PCB copper via full-metallic bottom. |
| 2 (Anode) | Reference / ground return | Typically tied to system ground; low-inductance path required for fast transient response; junction-to-anode thermal resistance is 35 °C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-profile thermal package | 1.1 mm max height with full metallic cathode tab enables placement under shields and in ultra-thin mobile designs while maintaining SMA-level thermal performance. |
| Sub-1 ns response time | Ensures clamping activation before transient energy couples into sensitive analog or digital ICs - critical for USB, HDMI, and battery-input protection. |
| JEDEC DO-216AA registration | Guarantees mechanical and soldering compatibility across qualified assembly processes and automated pick-and-place equipment. |
| Flux-trap-free construction | Full metallic bottom eliminates voids and flux entrapment during reflow, improving long-term reliability and thermal bond integrity. |
| Pb-free and RoHS compliant | Meets global environmental regulations without compromising surge performance or thermal capability. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ28A | Same VRWM (28 V), but SMA package (2.5 mm height, 29.4 mm² footprint); 200 W rating; higher RJA (500 °C/W vs. 3.2 °C/W to cathode). | Requires larger PCB area and lacks integral heatsink tabs; less suitable for ultra-thin or thermally dense layouts. | Select when legacy SMA footprint compatibility is mandatory and thermal constraints are relaxed. |
| 1.5SMC28A | Higher peak power (1500 W @ 10/1000 µs), but SMC package (2.7 mm height, 42.5 mm²); no metallic cathode tab; RJA = 18 °C/W. | Better for high-energy surges but incompatible with space-constrained designs; no direct thermal path to PCB copper. | Choose only when surge threat level exceeds IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 and board real estate permits larger package. |
Compared with SMAJ28A and 1.5SMC28A, the 1PMT28AT1G delivers identical 28 V clamping performance in a 50% smaller footprint and 1.1 mm profile, with superior thermal management via its full-metallic cathode tab - making it optimal for next-generation portable, wearable, and miniaturized industrial electronics where board space and thermal headroom are constrained.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the 1PMT28AT1G at its rated peak pulse current?
The 1PMT28AT1G has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 45.4 V when subjected to its specified peak pulse current of 4.4 A under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 2 in the official datasheet and ensures predictable overvoltage limiting for downstream 3.3 V or 5 V components. The 1PMT28AT1G maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range of −55 °C to +150 °C.
Is the 1PMT28AT1G unidirectional or bidirectional, and how is polarity identified?
The 1PMT28AT1G is a unidirectional TVS diode, meaning it clamps only positive transients relative to its cathode terminal. Polarity is indicated by a visible cathode band on the device body, and in tape-and-reel packaging, the cathode (shorter lead) is oriented toward the sprocket holes. Pin 1 is cathode and must be connected to the line being protected; Pin 2 (anode) connects to ground.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to cathode tab for the 1PMT28AT1G, and why does it matter?
The 1PMT28AT1G has a junction-to-cathode thermal resistance (RJcathode) of 3.2 °C/W, measured at cathode tab temperature (Ttab = 75 °C). This exceptionally low value results from its full metallic cathode bottom and integral heatsink tabs, enabling direct thermal transfer to PCB copper pours. It matters because it allows the 1PMT28AT1G to sustain repeated surges without thermal runaway - critical in high-duty-cycle applications like industrial power inputs.
Can the 1PMT28AT1G replace SMAJ28A in an existing design without layout changes?
No - the 1PMT28AT1G cannot serve as a drop-in replacement for SMAJ28A due to fundamental package differences: 1PMT28AT1G uses POWERMITE® (DO-216AA, 2.0 × 1.9 mm), while SMAJ28A uses SMA (4.3 × 2.6 mm). Though both have identical VRWM and clamping specs, the 1PMT28AT1G requires a new footprint, stencil, and placement program. Its advantage lies in miniaturization and thermal performance, not mechanical interchangeability.
Does the 1PMT28AT1G meet industry ESD standards, and what test level does it support?
Yes, the 1PMT28AT1G is rated for Class 3 Human Body Model (HBM) ESD protection, exceeding 16 kV per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001. This qualifies it for direct interface protection in handheld devices, USB ports, and exposed connectors subject to frequent operator contact. Its <1 ns response time ensures clamping occurs before ESD energy damages sensitive transceivers or microcontrollers downstream.
