Product details
Overview
1SMB60AT3 from onsemi is a unidirectional 600 W peak power Zener transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for parallel clamping protection of sensitive electronics against ESD, lightning-induced surges, and inductive switching transients. It features a 60 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), 96.8 V maximum clamping voltage at 6.2 A peak pulse current (VC @ IPP), and <1.0 ns response time. It is widely deployed in industrial power supplies and automotive electronic control units.
For engineers reviewing the 1SMB60AT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 1 ms 600 W surge, UL 497B certification for isolated loop protection, low leakage (<5 µA @ VRWM), and SMB package compatibility with high-density SMT layouts.
Technical Context
The 1SMB60AT3 operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, conducting only during reverse overvoltage events above its breakdown threshold (VBR = 66.7–73.7 V @ IT = 1.0 mA). Its clamping action limits transient energy by diverting surge current to ground while maintaining a predictable VC ≤ 96.8 V at IPP = 6.2 A.
Thermal design relies on junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RJL = 40 °C/W) and 3.0 W DC power dissipation at TL = 75°C, with derating above that temperature. It meets Class 3 ESD immunity (>16 kV HBM) and is rated for operation from −65°C to +150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Power Rating | 600 W @ 1.0 ms pulse - withstands high-energy transients without failure |
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 60 V - selected to exceed normal operating voltage while avoiding false triggering |
| Clamping Voltage (VC) | 96.8 V @ IPP = 6.2 A - defines maximum voltage seen by protected circuit during surge |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 66.7–73.7 V @ IT = 1.0 mA - ensures reliable avalanche conduction onset within spec |
| Leakage Current (IR) | <5.0 µA @ VRWM = 60 V - minimizes standby power loss and signal interference |
| Response Time | <1.0 ns - enables suppression before transient energy damages downstream ICs |
| ESD Rating | Class 3 (>16 kV) per Human Body Model - qualifies for harsh handling environments |
| UL Recognition | UL 497B (QVGQ2, File #E210057) - certified for isolated loop circuit protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ60A | Same VRWM (60 V), but lower peak power (600 W same), higher clamping (103 V @ 5.8 A), larger SMB package footprint | Higher VC reduces margin for 5 V-tolerant downstream ICs; identical mounting but slightly higher thermal mass | Prefer 1SMB60AT3 where tighter clamping (96.8 V vs. 103 V) is critical for 3.3 V/5 V logic protection |
| SMCJ60A | Same VRWM (60 V), higher peak power (1500 W), larger SMC package (7.11 × 6.22 mm vs. 4.32 × 3.56 mm), higher clamping (107 V @ 14 A) | Used where higher surge endurance is required (e.g., outdoor telecom), but requires PCB area increase and layout revision | Select 1SMB60AT3 when space-constrained designs demand SMB footprint and 600 W is sufficient per IEC 61000-4-5 |
Compared with SMBJ60A and SMCJ60A, the 1SMB60AT3 delivers the tightest clamping voltage (96.8 V) in the smallest SMB package, making it optimal for compact, cost-sensitive industrial and automotive modules where 600 W surge capability meets system-level test requirements.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the 1SMB60AT3 at its rated peak pulse current?
The 1SMB60AT3 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 96.8 V at a peak pulse current (IPP) of 6.2 A, measured under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed per the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during surge events. The 1SMB60AT3 achieves this with a clamping ratio of approximately 1.46 relative to its nominal breakdown voltage.
Is the 1SMB60AT3 suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, the 1SMB60AT3 is a unidirectional TVS diode and conducts only during reverse-biased overvoltage conditions. It must be used with correct polarity-cathode toward the protected line-and cannot suppress positive-going transients on grounded lines. For bidirectional protection, onsemi offers the 1SMB60CAT3 variant; the 1SMB60AT3 itself is not rated or characterized for symmetrical surge suppression.
Does the 1SMB60AT3 meet UL 497B certification, and what does that cover?
Yes, the 1SMB60AT3 carries UL 497B recognition (File #E210057, category QVGQ2) for protector applications. This certification validates performance in strike voltage breakdown, endurance conditioning, dielectric withstand, and discharge testing-specifically for isolated loop circuits such as telecom interfaces and industrial fieldbus networks. The 1SMB60AT3's UL listing is documented in the official onsemi datasheet and applies directly to this part number.
What is the maximum operating temperature range for the 1SMB60AT3?
The 1SMB60AT3 is rated for an operating and storage temperature range of −65°C to +150°C. Its junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RJL = 40 °C/W) and DC power derating curve allow continuous operation up to 75°C lead temperature (3.0 W), with linear derating beyond that point. This wide range supports deployment in under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and outdoor telecom equipment where ambient extremes occur.
How does the 1SMB60AT3 compare to the 1SMB60AT3G variant?
The 1SMB60AT3 and 1SMB60AT3G share identical electrical specifications, thermal ratings, and mechanical dimensions. The "G" suffix denotes a Pb−Free (RoHS-compliant) version with matte tin lead finish, qualified per JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1. Both variants use the same Surmetic SMB (Case 403A) package and are interchangeable in designs requiring lead-free assembly-no change to layout, thermal design, or protection performance is needed when selecting the 1SMB60AT3G over the 1SMB60AT3.
