Product details
Overview
3.0SMCJ100CA-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a bi-directional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for high-energy surge protection in DC power lines and signal interfaces. It delivers 3000W peak pulse power dissipation, clamps transients up to 162V at 18.5A (10/1000μs waveform), and features a 100V reverse standoff voltage with <5μA leakage at VRWM. It is used in industrial power supplies, telecom base station front-ends, and automotive body control modules requiring robust IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity.
For engineers reviewing the 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 datasheet, 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 pinout, 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 application, or 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin relative to protected IC VDD rails, thermal derating above +25°C ambient, SMC package PCB layout compliance per JEDEC MS-013, and compatibility with 8.3ms surge current waveforms in IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 testing.
Technical Context
This bi-directional TVS operates symmetrically across both polarities, enabling protection of AC-coupled or floating signal paths without polarity constraints. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable breakdown characteristics and low capacitance (<100pF typical), critical for high-speed data line protection.
The device complies with IEC 61000-4-2 (±30kV air/contact discharge) and meets HBM (8kV), CDM (1kV), and MM (800V) ESD standards. Thermal performance is rated for continuous operation from –55°C to +150°C junction temperature, with pulse derating defined per Figure 1 in DS30818 Rev. 18–2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power | 3000W - sustains single 10/1000μs surges up to 18.5A without failure under JEDEC test conditions. |
| Reverse Standoff Voltage (VRWM) | 100V - maximum continuous DC or RMS voltage before significant leakage; sets upper limit for protected circuit operating voltage. |
| Clamping Voltage (VC @ IPP) | 162V @ 18.5A - peak voltage seen by downstream circuit during worst-case surge; defines minimum required overvoltage margin for IC survival. |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 111.0–122.7V @ 1mA - sharp avalanche onset ensures predictable turn-on; tight tolerance supports consistent system-level protection design. |
| Leakage Current (IR) | <5μA @ 100V - negligible standby power loss and no measurable impact on high-impedance sensor or reference circuits. |
| ESD Rating | ±30kV air / ±30kV contact per IEC 61000-4-2 - qualifies for direct interface protection in handheld and exposed port applications. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMC (DO-214AB), surface-mount, molded plastic body with UL 94V-0 flammability rating and matte tin-plated leads. Moisture sensitivity level (MSL) = 1 per J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Lead 1) | Current entry terminal in forward conduction mode | For bi-directional devices, functions identically to cathode under negative transients; no polarity marking required. |
| Cathode (Lead 2) | Current exit terminal in forward conduction mode | Same electrical role as anode under reverse polarity surge; symmetrical construction eliminates orientation dependency during placement. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3000W peak pulse power | Enables protection against severe lightning-induced surges (IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4) on 48V DC distribution lines without cascaded stages. |
| Glass-passivated die | Ensures long-term stability of breakdown voltage and clamping performance across temperature and lifetime stress conditions. |
| Bi-directional symmetry | Eliminates need for polarity-aware layout; supports AC signal lines, differential buses (e.g., RS-485), and floating power domains. |
| RoHS-compliant & halogen-free | Meets EU Directive 2015/863/EU with Br+Cl <1500ppm and Sb <1000ppm - satisfies environmental compliance for global industrial and automotive OEMs. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Telecom Power Feeds |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protection of 48V DC input stage in variable-frequency drives against load dump and inductive kickback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary surge clamp placed directly at connector entry point, upstream of DC-DC converters and gate drivers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ100CA-T | 2000W PPK, same VRWM (100V), higher VC (170V @ 17.6A), SMB package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Limited to lower-energy surges; unsuitable for IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 or sustained 3000W events | Select when board space is constrained and surge threat level is limited to IEC 61000-4-2 only. |
| 1.5SMC100CA | 1500W PPK, identical VRWM and VC, same SMC package but lower surge rating and older process | Inadequate for 3000W pulse handling; requires parallel devices or redesign for equivalent protection level | Use only for cost-sensitive legacy designs where 3000W capability is not mandated by system specification. |
Compared with SMBJ100CA-T and 1.5SMC100CA, the 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 provides 50% higher peak power headroom and verified 3000W capability in the same SMC footprint-enabling single-device compliance with IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 without thermal or layout compromise.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 under a 10/1000μs surge?
The maximum clamping voltage is 162V at 18.5A peak pulse current, measured per the 10×1000μs waveform defined in Figure 2 of DS30818 Rev. 18–2. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range (–55°C to +150°C) and represents the worst-case voltage imposed on protected circuitry during surge events.
Is the 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes-the device is manufactured in IATF 16949 certified facilities and qualified to AEC-Q200 for passive components. While the standard part is not automotive-grade, Diodes offers Q-suffix variants (e.g., 3.0SMCJ100CAQ-13) with PPAP documentation, extended temperature validation, and change control-available upon request for automotive OEM programs.
How does the bi-directional configuration affect PCB layout?
The bi-directional construction eliminates polarity marking and orientation constraints: either lead may connect to any node in the protected path. Layout requires symmetric copper pour around both terminals, adherence to SMC pad dimensions (C=6.90mm, G=4.40mm), and thermal relief traces to manage 3000W pulse energy dissipation without solder joint fatigue.
What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) and reflow profile requirement?
The 3.0SMCJ100CA-13 has MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it is not moisture-sensitive and may be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without baking. Reflow must follow Diodes' recommended profile: peak temperature ≤260°C, time above 217°C ≤60 seconds, and ramp rate ≤3°C/s to avoid package cracking or delamination.
