Product details
Overview
1SMA75AT3G from ON Semiconductor is a unidirectional 400 W peak power Zener transient voltage suppressor (TVS) designed for clamping high-energy transients in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 75 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), 83.3–92.1 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA test current, 121 A maximum peak pulse current (IPP), and clamps to ≤121 V at IPP. It is used in automotive power supply protection and industrial control I/O interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMA75AT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include VRWM ≥ system operating voltage, VC ≤ protected circuit's absolute maximum rating, low zener impedance for fast clamping, sub-1 ns response time, and SMA package compatibility with automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
The 1SMA75AT3G operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, conducting only during negative transients relative to its anode–cathode polarity. Its clamping behavior is defined by the 10/1000 µs surge waveform per R.E.A., with thermal derating applied above 75°C junction temperature using RJL = 20 °C/W.
It exhibits <1 ns response time and ESD robustness >16 kV HBM, enabled by low-junction-capacitance design and optimized silicon geometry. The device is not bidirectional-bidirectional variants (e.g., 1SMA75CAT3) are separate part numbers and not functionally interchangeable.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Power Dissipation | 400 W @ 1 ms, 10/1000 µs waveform - sustains single high-energy surges without failure |
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 75 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before significant leakage; sets minimum system operating margin |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 83.3–92.1 V @ IT = 1 mA - defines onset of avalanche conduction; tight tolerance enables predictable clamping threshold |
| Clamping Voltage (VC) | ≤121 V @ IPP = 121 A - maximum voltage seen by protected circuit during rated surge |
| Response Time | <1 ns - ensures suppression initiates before transient energy couples into sensitive downstream components |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV HBM) - withstands human-body-model electrostatic discharge events common in handling and assembly |
| Thermal Resistance (Junction-to-Lead) | 20 °C/W - supports 1.5 W steady-state dissipation at TL = 75°C with proper PCB copper area |
Pinout & Package
SMA package (Case 403D-02), surface-mount, low-profile plastic housing with molded cathode band marking. Flat handling surface enables precise pick-and-place placement. Mounting position is unrestricted; compatible with top-slide or bottom-board mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Transient current return path | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., GND or return rail); conducts surge current during reverse-biased clamping |
| Cathode | Transient voltage reference node | Marked by band; connected to protected line (e.g., 24 V rail); clamps voltage to VC when transient exceeds VRWM |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unidirectional clamping architecture | Enables targeted protection of positive-rail transients without interfering with normal forward-biased operation |
| Surmetic™ molded plastic case | Void-free encapsulation ensures long-term reliability under thermal cycling and humidity exposure |
| Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) construction | Meets global environmental regulations; compatible with lead-free reflow profiles up to 260°C for 10 s |
| Low zener impedance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast-rising transients, improving protection fidelity for high-speed digital I/O |
| Flat handling surface | Reduces placement skew and tombstoning risk during high-speed SMT assembly |
Applications
| Automotive Power Distribution | Industrial PLC I/O Protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ75A | 600 W peak power, SMB package (larger footprint), VRWM = 75 V, VC = 121 V @ IPP = 167 A | Higher surge capacity but requires larger PCB area; better suited for higher-reliability telecom infrastructure | Select when system-level surge testing exceeds IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 or when board space permits larger package |
| 1N6158A | 400 W peak power, DO-204AC (DO-15) through-hole package, VRWM = 75 V, VC = 121 V @ IPP = 121 A | Through-hole mounting only; no SMT compatibility; longer lead inductance reduces high-frequency effectiveness | Choose only for legacy through-hole designs or prototyping where reflow capability is unavailable |
Compared with SMBJ75A and 1N6158A, the 1SMA75AT3G offers optimal balance of 400 W surge capability, compact SMA footprint, and sub-1 ns response-making it preferred for space-constrained, high-density SMT designs requiring fast, reliable rail clamping.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 1SMA75AT3G under rated surge conditions?
The 1SMA75AT3G clamps to a maximum of 121 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 121 A, measured using the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during surge events. The 121 V clamping voltage directly constrains the stress on downstream components like DC–DC converters or microcontroller I/O pins.
Is the 1SMA75AT3G suitable for bidirectional transient suppression?
No, the 1SMA75AT3G is strictly unidirectional and conducts only when the cathode is driven positive relative to the anode. For bidirectional protection, onsemi specifies separate part numbers such as 1SMA75CAT3. Using the 1SMA75AT3G in a bidirectional configuration would leave the circuit unprotected during positive transients on the anode side, risking damage to connected devices.
What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance of the 1SMA75AT3G?
For optimal thermal performance, the 1SMA75AT3G should be mounted on a minimum 1″ square copper pad on FR-4 board, per ON Semiconductor's recommended footprint in Case 403D-02. This layout achieves the specified thermal resistance of 20 °C/W (junction-to-lead) and supports 1.5 W steady-state dissipation at 75°C lead temperature. Avoid narrow traces or isolated pads that impede heat spreading.
Does the "G" suffix in 1SMA75AT3G indicate RoHS compliance?
Yes, the "G" suffix explicitly denotes a Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) version of the 1SMA75AT3G, manufactured using lead-free solder terminations and halogen-free molding compound. It is qualified for reflow soldering at peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds, meeting JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements.
How does the 1SMA75AT3G compare to the 1SMA75A variant without the "T3G" suffix?
The 1SMA75AT3G and legacy 1SMA75A share identical electrical specifications and SMA packaging, but the "T3G" suffix confirms tape-and-reel packaging (5000 units/reel) and Pb-free construction. The base 1SMA75A may be supplied in bulk or non-Pb-free form depending on date code and lot; 1SMA75AT3G guarantees both packaging format and RoHS compliance for automated SMT lines.
