Product details
Overview
3.0C58CA-M3/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in SMC (DO-214AB) package, designed for high-energy surge protection with 3000 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), 93.6 V clamping voltage at 32.1 A, and 58 V stand-off voltage. It protects MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor signal lines in industrial and telecom power rails.
For engineers reviewing the 3.0C58CA-M3/I datasheet, 3.0C58CA-M3/I pinout, 3.0C58CA-M3/I application, or 3.0C58CA-M3/I equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 μs transients, bidirectional polarity, MSL Level 1 reflow compatibility, and 175 °C junction temperature rating.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector, responding within picoseconds to transient overvoltages. Its bidirectional architecture enables symmetrical clamping across both polarities without external polarity management, and its low incremental surge resistance ensures minimal voltage overshoot during high-current surges up to 32.1 A (10/1000 μs).
It meets IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity at ±30 kV (contact/air), supports reflow soldering at 260 °C peak per J-STD-020, and maintains stable operation from –55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature - critical for automotive engine control and industrial motor drive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 58 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage exceeds 1.0 μA; defines safe DC bias margin for protected line. |
| VBR (min/max) | 64.4 V / 71.2 V at 1.0 mA - Verified breakdown threshold range; ensures reliable turn-on above normal operating voltage. |
| VC @ IPPM | 93.6 V at 32.1 A (10/1000 μs) - Clamping voltage under rated surge; determines maximum stress on downstream components. |
| PPPM | 3000 W (10/1000 μs) - Peak pulse power handling; defines energy absorption capability for lightning-induced surges. |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables use in high-ambient environments like power supply enclosures. |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV HBM (contact/air) - Robust electrostatic discharge immunity per IEC 61000-4-2; reduces need for secondary ESD stages. |

Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Telecom Power Interfaces |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protection of gate drivers and feedback sensing lines against switching transients from IGBTs and MOSFETs in variable-frequency drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Shunt TVS device that clamps voltage spikes before they reach sensitive control ICs or isolated gate drivers. Use Value: Prevents false triggering and latch-up in PWM controllers by limiting transient voltage to ≤93.6 V during 32.1 A surges. | Use Scenario: Surge suppression on -48 V DC power feeds and Ethernet PHY power rails in base station equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage clamp on telecom DC input, placed upstream of DC/DC converters and PMICs. Use Value: Maintains system uptime by absorbing 3000 W surges per IEC 61000-4-5 while holding clamping below 100 V. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |
Use Scenario: Protecting LIN bus transceivers and microcontroller I/O pins from load-dump and jump-start transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional transient suppressor placed directly at connector entry points on PCBs. Use Value: Survives ±30 kV ESD events and clamps 12 V system transients to <95 V, preserving MCU GPIO integrity. | Use Scenario: Shielding analog front-end inputs (e.g., 4–20 mA loop receivers) from field wiring-induced surges in factory automation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: First-line voltage clamp on sensor input traces, before precision op-amps or ADCs. Use Value: Limits induced transients to ≤93.6 V, preventing saturation or damage to low-voltage signal chain components. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ58CA | Same 58 V VWM, but lower PPPM = 600 W and higher VC = 93.6 V @ 6.4 A; SMB package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass). | Lower surge capacity limits use to consumer-grade or low-energy signal lines, not primary power rail protection. | Select when board space is constrained and surge threat level is ≤600 W (e.g., USB or I²C lines). |
| SMCJ58A | Unidirectional version; same VWM/VC specs but requires correct polarity orientation; identical SMC package and 3000 W rating. | Requires explicit polarity assignment in layout; unsuitable for AC or floating signals without additional circuitry. | Choose only for DC rails where polarity is fixed and ground-referenced, to avoid bidirectional overhead. |
Compared with SMBJ58CA and SMCJ58A, the 3.0C58CA-M3/I delivers full 3000 W bidirectional clamping in the robust SMC package - making it optimal for high-reliability industrial and telecom power interface protection where polarity independence and thermal resilience are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the 3.0C58CA-M3/I under a 10/1000 μs surge?
The 3.0C58CA-M3/I has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 93.6 V at 32.1 A under a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during standardized surge events - critical for ensuring downstream ICs remain within absolute maximum ratings.
Is the 3.0C58CA-M3/I suitable for lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, the 3.0C58CA-M3/I is qualified for lead-free reflow with a maximum peak temperature of 260 °C, meeting J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 requirements. Its matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102, and the device passes JESD 201 Class 2 whisker testing - enabling direct integration into standard SMT assembly lines without process modification.
Does the 3.0C58CA-M3/I have polarity markings?
No, the 3.0C58CA-M3/I is a bidirectional TVS and carries no polarity marking on the case. Its symmetrical construction allows installation without orientation concern - simplifying layout and reducing assembly errors in AC-coupled or floating signal paths where polarity reversal may occur.
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for the 3.0C58CA-M3/I?
The 3.0C58CA-M3/I has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +175 °C, verified per JEDEC standards. This rating supports reliable operation in high-ambient environments such as enclosed power supplies, motor control cabinets, and outdoor telecom enclosures - where thermal management margins are tight and long-term stability is essential.
How does the 3.0C58CA-M3/I compare to unidirectional TVS diodes with the same VWM?
The 3.0C58CA-M3/I provides identical VWM (58 V) and clamping performance as unidirectional counterparts like SMCJ58A, but enables polarity-agnostic placement. Unlike unidirectional types, it protects against transients of either polarity without requiring ground-referenced routing - making it ideal for differential buses, transformer-coupled lines, and floating sensor inputs where voltage inversion occurs.
