Product details
Overview
1SMA30AT3 from ON Semiconductor is a unidirectional 400 W peak power Zener transient voltage suppressor (TVS) designed for overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 30 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), 35.05 V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA test current, 48.4 A maximum peak pulse current (IPP), and clamps transients to ≤48.4 V at rated surge. It is used in automotive power supplies and industrial control I/O protection.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMA30AT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include VRWM ≥ system operating voltage, clamping voltage margin relative to protected IC absolute maximum ratings, surge current capability under 10/1000 µs waveform, and SMA package thermal performance on FR-4 PCBs.
Technical Context
The 1SMA30AT3 operates as a unidirectional Zener-based TVS diode, conducting only during reverse overvoltage events above its breakdown threshold while remaining high-impedance under normal bias. Its low zener impedance and <1 ns response time enable fast clamping of ESD and lightning-induced surges.
It is rated for 400 W non-repetitive peak power at 1 ms pulse width (10/1000 µs waveform), with thermal derating starting at 75°C junction temperature. The device supports 40 A forward surge current and exhibits ≤2.5 µA reverse leakage at 30 V VRWM.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 30 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; must exceed circuit's max DC or peak AC voltage. |
| VBR (min/typ/max) | 33.3 / 35.05 / 36.8 V @ 1 mA - Confirms Zener conduction onset; typ value defines design margin for clamping threshold. |
| VC @ IPP | 48.4 V @ 48.4 A - Clamped voltage during full-rated surge; determines maximum stress on downstream components. |
| PPK | 400 W @ 1 ms - Peak transient energy absorption capacity under standard 10/1000 µs waveform. |
| IR @ VRWM | ≤2.5 µA - Ensures minimal leakage current in standby, critical for low-power or battery-backed systems. |
| Response Time | <1 ns - Enables suppression of fast ESD events (IEC 61000-4-2) before sensitive logic is damaged. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMA (DO-214AC), case outline 403D-02, surface-mount plastic package with cathode polarity indicated by band. Dimensions: 4.06–4.57 mm (L) × 2.29–2.92 mm (W) × 1.91–2.41 mm (H).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal; connected to lower-potential side of protected line | Completes current path during reverse surge; must be routed with low-inductance trace to ground or return path. |
| Cathode | Zener breakdown terminal; connected to higher-potential side (e.g., VCC or signal line) | Defines clamping reference; polarity band must align with PCB silkscreen to prevent misassembly. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power | Supports robust protection against IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 (1 kV/2 Ω) surges without failure. |
| ESD rating >16 kV HBM | Meets or exceeds Class 3 ESD immunity requirements for end-equipment compliance testing. |
| Low profile SMA package | Enables compact placement near connectors or IC power pins without height interference in stacked assemblies. |
| Flat handling surface | Ensures consistent pick-and-place accuracy during automated SMT assembly, reducing tombstoning risk. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ30A | Same VRWM (30 V) and VC (48.4 V), but 600 W PPK rating in larger SMB package | Better thermal dissipation for repetitive surge environments; requires larger PCB footprint | Select when surge repetition rate exceeds 1 pulse/minute or ambient temperature exceeds 75°C |
| P6SMB30A | Identical electrical specs (VRWM=30 V, VBR=33.3–36.8 V, VC=48.4 V), same 400 W rating, SMB package | Legacy ON Semi part with identical performance but different marking and packaging logistics | Use for legacy BOM continuity where SMB footprint is already allocated |
Compared with 1SMA30AT3, SMBJ30A offers higher surge endurance in thermally constrained layouts, while P6SMB30A provides footprint-compatible drop-in replacement with identical electrical behavior but alternate packaging and traceability.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 1SMA30AT3 under rated surge conditions?
The 1SMA30AT3 clamps to a maximum of 48.4 V when subjected to its rated 48.4 A peak pulse current (IPP), measured using the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of the ON Semiconductor datasheet for the 1SMA5.0AT3 Series. Designers must ensure this clamped voltage remains below the absolute maximum rating of downstream components protected by the 1SMA30AT3.
Is the 1SMA30AT3 suitable for bidirectional transient suppression?
No, the 1SMA30AT3 is a unidirectional TVS diode and conducts only during reverse-biased overvoltage events. For bidirectional protection, ON Semiconductor specifies separate parts such as the 1SMA30CAT3. Using the 1SMA30AT3 in AC-coupled or bipolar signal paths will not provide clamping during positive-going transients beyond the forward voltage drop (~3.5 V), making it unsuitable for true bidirectional applications.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RJA) for the 1SMA30AT3?
The 1SMA30AT3 has a thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RJA) of 250 °C/W when mounted on an FR-4 board using ON Semiconductor's minimum recommended footprint. This value assumes zero airflow and standard PCB copper area. Derating begins at 25°C ambient, with power dissipation reduced by 4.0 mW/°C above that temperature, limiting continuous DC power to 0.5 W at 25°C.
Does the 1SMA30AT3 meet lead-free soldering requirements?
Yes, the 1SMA30AT3 is available in a Pb-free version designated as 1SMA30AT3G, which complies with RoHS and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements. The standard 1SMA30AT3 may contain lead; always verify the suffix and packaging code when ordering for lead-free manufacturing processes.
How does the 1SMA30AT3 compare to the 1N6267A in terms of surge capability?
The 1SMA30AT3 delivers 400 W peak pulse power at 1 ms, matching the 1N6267A's rating, but uses the smaller SMA (DO-214AC) package versus the DO-201AD package of the 1N6267A. While both share similar VRWM (30 V) and VC (48.4 V), the 1SMA30AT3 offers superior board-space efficiency and automated assembly compatibility, whereas the 1N6267A provides higher thermal mass for rare high-duty-cycle surge scenarios.
