Product details
Overview
5KP110HE3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional TransZORB® transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in P600 package, rated for 5000 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), 110 V stand-off voltage (VWM), and 177 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 28.2 A peak pulse current. It provides robust overvoltage protection for automotive power rails and industrial DC supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 5KP110HE3/54 datasheet, 5KP110HE3/54 pinout, 5KP110HE3/54 application, or 5KP110HE3/54 equivalent, this AEC-Q101 qualified TVS offers verified clamping performance, low incremental surge resistance, fast response time, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated leads suitable for high-reliability board-level surge suppression.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, triggered when reverse voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold (VBR = 122–135 V at 5 mA). Its glass-passivated P600 junction enables stable clamping under repetitive 10/1000 μs transients with 0.01% duty cycle.
Designed for primary-side overvoltage protection, it sustains 5000 W peak pulse power without degradation and exhibits a temperature coefficient of VBR at +0.112 %/°C - critical for thermal stability in automotive under-hood environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 110 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction begins; defines safe blocking range in DC supply lines. |
| VBR (min/max) | 122 V / 135 V at 5 mA - Verified avalanche onset range; ensures predictable turn-on during transients above nominal rail. |
| VC @ IPPM | 177 V at 28.2 A - Clamped voltage during 5000 W surge; limits downstream component stress to ≤177 V. |
| PPPM | 5000 W - Peak pulse power handling per 10/1000 μs waveform; supports high-energy lightning or load-dump surges. |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables operation in under-hood automotive and industrial ambient conditions. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per JESD22 standards. |
| Package | P600 - Axial-lead, molded epoxy case meeting UL 94 V-0; compatible with wave soldering (275 °C, 10 s max). |
Pinout & Package
P600 package: axial-leaded, cylindrical epoxy body with cathode band marking; lead spacing 9.5 mm (0.375"), body diameter 9.1 mm (0.360"), length 9.5 mm (0.375"); RoHS-compliant matte tin plating per J-STD-002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry / reverse surge return path | Connected to system ground or low-side reference; completes clamping loop during overvoltage events. |
| Cathode | Reverse voltage sensing / clamping node | Connected to protected line (e.g., 12 V battery rail); avalanche conduction begins here when VWM exceeded. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 5000 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Withstands automotive load-dump pulses (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a) without failure or parameter shift. |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes VC overshoot during fast-rising transients (<1 ns response), improving protection margin. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive applications including engine control units, body control modules, and ADAS power domains. |
| Uni-directional polarity only | Optimized for DC-biased lines (e.g., battery feeds); eliminates ambiguity in orientation during placement. |
| UL 94 V-0 molding compound | Prevents flame propagation in enclosed enclosures - required for automotive and industrial safety compliance. |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial DC Power Supply Clamping |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110AHE3/52 | Lower peak power (600 W), SMC package, same VWM (110 V), higher VC (183 V at 3.3 A) | Better suited for space-constrained PCBs; insufficient for automotive load-dump duty cycles | Select when board area is limited and surge energy is ≤600 W (e.g., secondary-side signal line protection) |
| 1.5KE110A | Same VWM/VBR range but lower PPPM (1500 W), DO-201 package, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lacks automotive qualification and thermal robustness; not rated for 175 °C operation | Acceptable for commercial-grade 24 V industrial controls where AEC-Q101 and 5 kW capability are not required |
Compared with SMBJ110AHE3/52 and 1.5KE110A, the 5KP110HE3/54 delivers 3.3× higher surge power handling, AEC-Q101 validation, and superior thermal endurance - making it the only option among the three qualified for front-end automotive battery rail protection.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the 5KP110HE3/54 under maximum surge conditions?
The 5KP110HE3/54 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 177 V at 28.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM), measured with a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is guaranteed per JEDEC-registered test conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during a 5000 W transient event. The 5KP110HE3/54 maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range.
Is the 5KP110HE3/54 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the 5KP110HE3/54 is AEC-Q101 qualified and specifically designed for automotive use, including engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS power domains. Its P600 package, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, and validated performance under ISO 7637-2 load-dump conditions confirm its suitability. The HE3 suffix denotes AEC-Q101 qualification and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
What does the "HE3/54" suffix mean in 5KP110HE3/54?
The "HE3" suffix indicates RoHS-compliant construction with AEC-Q101 qualification and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance. The "/54" denotes packaging in 13-inch paper tape and reel, with a base quantity of 800 units per reel. This format ensures compatibility with automated SMT placement equipment despite the axial-leaded P600 form factor.
How does the 5KP110HE3/54 differ from standard 1.5KE series TVS diodes?
The 5KP110HE3/54 delivers 5000 W peak pulse power - over three times the 1500 W rating of the 1.5KE110A - and features AEC-Q101 qualification, 175 °C junction rating, and P600 package optimized for high-power dissipation. Unlike the DO-201–based 1.5KE series, the 5KP110HE3/54 supports sustained thermal loads in automotive under-hood environments and meets stricter surge repetition requirements.
Can the 5KP110HE3/54 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, the 5KP110HE3/54 is unidirectional only, as confirmed in the Vishay datasheet. It conducts in forward bias and clamps in reverse bias above VBR. For AC or bidirectional protection, a separate pair of unidirectional devices or a dedicated bidirectional TVS (e.g., 5KP110CA) must be used. The cathode band marking on the P600 body enforces correct orientation during assembly.
