Product details
Overview
5KP110-E3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional TransZORB® transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in P600 package, designed for high-energy surge protection on DC power rails and signal lines. It features 110 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 122–135 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 5000 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), clamping voltage of 177 V at 28.2 A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
For engineers reviewing the 5KP110-E3/54 datasheet, 5KP110-E3/54 pinout, 5KP110-E3/54 application, or 5KP110-E3/54 equivalent, this device is selected for robust overvoltage protection in switching power supply outputs, automotive ECUs, industrial motor drives, and telecom interface circuits where high IPPM, low clamping ratio, and thermal stability up to 175 °C are critical.
Technical Context
The 5KP110-E3/54 operates as a silicon avalanche diode with glass-passivated P600 junction, delivering precise unidirectional clamping without triggering during normal operation. Its 10/1000 μs waveform response enables suppression of lightning-induced transients and inductive switching spikes while maintaining <2.0 μA leakage at 110 V.
Thermal design is supported by 8.0 W steady-state power dissipation on infinite heatsink at TL = 75 °C and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. The device meets JESD 22-B106 solderability (275 °C, 10 s) and JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance, confirming suitability for automated assembly in high-reliability production.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 110 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; defines safe DC rail margin for 12 V–48 V systems with headroom. |
| VBR @ IT = 50 mA | 122–135 V - Breakdown voltage range ensuring consistent avalanche initiation across production lots under standardized test current. |
| VC @ IPPM = 28.2 A | 177 V - Clamped voltage during 5000 W transient; limits downstream IC stress to ≤177 V under worst-case surge. |
| IPPM | 28.2 A - Peak pulse current capability with 10/1000 μs waveform; supports IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV) surge testing. |
| PPPM | 5000 W - Peak pulse power rating defining energy-handling capacity for short-duration transients without failure. |
| TJ max. | 175 °C - Maximum junction temperature enabling operation in under-hood automotive or enclosed industrial enclosures. |
| Leakage @ VWM | ≤2.0 μA - Ultra-low reverse leakage preserves system efficiency and prevents false triggering in high-impedance sensing paths. |
Pinout & Package
5KP110-E3/54 uses the axial-lead P600 package: molded epoxy body with matte tin-plated leads, cathode indicated by color band. Leads meet J-STD-002/JESD 22-B102 solderability and JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward conduction terminal | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., ground or return path); conducts during forward surge events or crowbar operation. |
| Cathode | Clamping reference terminal | Connected to protected line (e.g., +12 V rail); avalanche breakdown occurs between cathode and anode when VWM exceeded. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5000 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Enables single-device protection against IEC 61000-4-5 surges up to 4 kV without external crowbar circuitry. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS power domains. |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast-rising transients (<1 ns response), improving clamping precision. |
| UL 94 V-0 compliant molding compound | Ensures flame-retardant enclosure integrity in safety-critical industrial and transportation equipment. |
| RoHS-compliant E3 suffix | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709A halogen-free requirements for green manufacturing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110A | Lower peak power (600 W), SMC package, 110 V VWM, 177 V VC at 3.4 A | Targeted for PCB space-constrained, lower-energy applications (e.g., USB ports, sensor interfaces) | Select SMBJ110A when board area is limited and surge energy does not exceed 600 W; not suitable for IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4. |
| 1.5KE110A | Same P600 package, 5000 W rating, but higher VC (187 V at 26.7 A) and wider VBR tolerance (10 % vs. 5 % for 5KP series) | Legacy industrial designs requiring drop-in replacement where tighter clamping ratio is non-critical | Choose 1.5KE110A only if existing layout uses identical footprint and 187 V clamping is acceptable; 5KP110-E3/54 offers superior clamping precision and AEC-Q101 qualification. |
Compared with SMBJ110A and 1.5KE110A, the 5KP110-E3/54 delivers tighter VBR tolerance (5 %), lower clamping voltage (177 V vs. 187 V), AEC-Q101 qualification, and verified 0.01 % duty-cycle endurance-making it optimal for automotive and high-reliability industrial surge protection where clamping accuracy and long-term stability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the 5KP110-E3/54 under maximum rated surge current?
The 5KP110-E3/54 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 177 V when subjected to its peak pulse current (IPPM) of 28.2 A with a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per JEDEC standards and ensures downstream components experience no more than 177 V during worst-case transient events, directly supporting IEC 61000-4-5 compliance testing.
Is the 5KP110-E3/54 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the 5KP110-E3/54 is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly rated for automotive use, including engine control units, body control modules, and ADAS power domains. Its 175 °C maximum junction temperature, robust P600 package, and low leakage (<2.0 μA at 110 V) meet stringent automotive environmental and reliability requirements defined in the AEC-Q101 standard.
How does the 5KP110-E3/54 differ from the 1.5KE110A in practical design?
The 5KP110-E3/54 offers tighter 5 % VBR tolerance (vs. 10 % for 1.5KE110A), lower clamping voltage (177 V vs. 187 V at rated IPPM), and AEC-Q101 qualification-critical for automotive and high-precision industrial designs. While both use P600 packaging, the 5KP110-E3/54 provides superior surge energy handling consistency and thermal stability above 25 °C.
What is the meaning of the "E3/54" suffix in 5KP110-E3/54?
The "E3" suffix indicates RoHS-compliant, commercial-grade construction meeting JEDEC JS709A halogen-free requirements and JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance. The "/54" denotes the preferred package code for 13-inch paper tape and reel delivery, with a base quantity of 800 units per reel-standard for automated SMT assembly at Aetrix Electronics and contract manufacturers.
Can the 5KP110-E3/54 be used in bidirectional protection configurations?
No-the 5KP110-E3/54 is unidirectional only, with polarity marked by a cathode band. For bidirectional protection, two 5KP110-E3/54 devices must be connected in series opposition (anode-to-anode), or a dedicated bidirectional TVS such as SMAJ110CA should be selected. Using a single unidirectional device in reverse-biased AC applications risks permanent breakdown.
