Product details
Overview
3.0SMCJ10A-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a unidirectional 3000W surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode with 10V reverse standoff voltage, 17.0V max clamping voltage at 176.5A peak pulse current, and glass-passivated die construction. It protects DC power rails and I/O lines in industrial motor drives, telecom power supplies, and automotive body control modules against ESD, lightning surges, and inductive switching transients.
For engineers reviewing the 3.0SMCJ10A-13 datasheet, 3.0SMCJ10A-13 pinout, 3.0SMCJ10A-13 application, or 3.0SMCJ10A-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin relative to protected IC VDD, peak pulse current capability under 10/1000μs waveform, IEC 61000-4-2 ESD robustness (30kV air/30kV contact), and SMC package thermal performance on 8mm² copper land.
Technical Context
This TVS operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector: when transient voltage exceeds its 11.10–12.27V breakdown range (tested at 1.0mA), it avalanches to clamp the line at ≤17.0V while diverting up to 176.5A peak pulse current. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage (<5.0μA at 10V VRWM) and repeatable breakdown behavior across temperature.
The device complies with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD immunity (30kV air, 30kV contact) and meets HBM (8kV), CDM (1kV), and MM (800V) standards. Thermal derating follows JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity, with full 3000W pulse power rated only at TA = +25°C and reduced linearly above that per Fig. 1.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power | 3000W - sustains single 10×1000μs transients without failure under specified mounting conditions |
| Reverse Standoff Voltage | 10.0V - maximum continuous DC or RMS voltage before significant leakage begins |
| Breakdown Voltage | 11.10–12.27V @ 1.0mA - guaranteed avalanche initiation window for predictable clamping onset |
| Max Clamping Voltage | 17.0V @ 176.5A - upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuit during worst-case surge |
| ESD Rating | 30kV air / 30kV contact per IEC 61000-4-2 - withstands direct electrostatic discharge events without degradation |
| Operating Temperature | −55°C to +150°C - supports under-hood automotive and industrial environments without derating |
| Package | SMC (DO-214AB) - surface-mount outline with 6.90mm pad width, optimized for thermal dissipation on 8mm² copper |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ10A-13 | 2000W PPK, same 10V VRWM, 17.0V VC, but SMB package (smaller thermal mass) | Limited to lower-energy transients; unsuitable for IEC 61000-4-5 line surges requiring >250A IPP | Select when board space is constrained and surge energy is limited to <100J (e.g., low-power sensor nodes) |
| SMCJ10A-13 | Identical electrical specs and SMC package, but non-lead-free plating (SnPb finish) | Not RoHS-compliant; restricted in EU/automotive markets; requires exemption documentation | Choose only for legacy repair or non-RoHS programs where leaded finish is explicitly permitted |
Compared with SMBJ10A-13 and SMCJ10A-13, the 3.0SMCJ10A-13 delivers full 3000W surge handling in a RoHS/halogen-free SMC package-critical for new industrial and automotive designs requiring both high energy absorption and regulatory compliance.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the 3.0SMCJ10A-13 under a 10×1000μs surge?
The maximum clamping voltage is 17.0V when subjected to a peak pulse current of 176.5A, as defined by the 10×1000μs waveform per Figure 2 in DS30818 Rev. 18-2. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and represents the upper bound of voltage seen by downstream circuitry during worst-case transient events.
Does the 3.0SMCJ10A-13 meet automotive qualification standards?
The 3.0SMCJ10A-13 is JEDEC High Reliability qualified and manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities. While it is not itself AEC-Q200 qualified, Diodes offers the automotive-grade Q-suffix variant (e.g., 3.0SMCJ10AQ-13) with full PPAP documentation and AEC-Q200 stress testing-available upon request for automotive programs.
How does the SMC package affect thermal performance compared to SMA or SMB?
The SMC package provides significantly higher thermal mass and larger copper pad area (6.90mm × 4.40mm recommended) than SMA or SMB, enabling sustained 3000W pulse dissipation with minimal junction temperature rise. Derating begins above +25°C ambient per Figure 1, reaching ~50% power capability at +100°C-making it suitable for enclosed industrial enclosures without forced airflow.
Can the 3.0SMCJ10A-13 be used for bidirectional signal line protection?
No-the 3.0SMCJ10A-13 is unidirectional and features a cathode band; it conducts only during positive transients on the cathode relative to anode. For bidirectional protection (e.g., RS-485, USB D+/D−), the bi-directional variant 3.0SMCJ10CA-13 must be used, which has symmetric clamping in both polarities and no polarity marking.
