Product details
Overview
6DFN39A-M3/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount TRANSZORB® transient voltage suppressor in DFN3820A package, with 39 V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR = 37.1–41.0 V), 33.3 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 53.9 V clamping voltage at 11.1 A peak pulse current, and 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs). It protects MOSFETs and signal lines in industrial sensor units against lightning-induced transients.
For engineers reviewing the 6DFN39A-M3/H datasheet, 6DFN39A-M3/H pinout, 6DFN39A-M3/H application, or 6DFN39A-M3/H equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 μs surge, thermal resistance (RθJA = 140–175 °C/W), MSL Level 1 rating, side-wettable flanks for AOI, and AEC-Q101 qualification indicated by /H suffix.
Technical Context
This device employs passivated anisotropic rectifier technology optimized for low-clamping unidirectional TVS operation. Its junction passivation and DFN3820A package enable high surge current handling (11.1 A IPPM) with minimal parasitic capacitance and robust thermal performance (TJ max = 175 °C).
The 6DFN39A-M3/H operates as a single-channel, cathode-marked transient suppressor with polarity-defined anode-to-heatsink connection. It meets IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity up to ±30 kV (contact/air) and is rated for industrial-grade reliability per JESD201 Class 2 whisker testing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/typ/max) | 37.1 / 39.0 / 41.0 V - ensures reliable conduction onset above 33.3 V operating voltage while maintaining margin against false triggering |
| VWM | 33.3 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before leakage exceeds 1 μA, defining safe operating window for protected circuitry |
| VC @ IPPM | 53.9 V - clamping voltage at 11.1 A surge, limiting downstream voltage stress during 600 W transient events |
| RθJA | 140–175 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance determines derating capability on standard FR4 PCBs |
| TJ max | +175 °C - maximum junction temperature enables operation in high-ambient industrial environments without thermal shutdown |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV (IEC 61000-4-2) - provides system-level electrostatic discharge protection without external shielding |
| MSL Level | Level 1 (J-STD-020) - supports standard reflow profiles up to 260 °C peak, eliminating moisture sensitivity concerns |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN3820A - leadless, low-profile (0.88 mm typical height), side-wettable flanks for automated optical inspection and solder joint quality verification. Cathode marked by color band; heatsink (exposed pad) is anode terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (exposed pad) | Current return path / thermal interface | Electrically connected to cathode-side PCB copper pour for enhanced heat dissipation and low-inductance grounding |
| Cathode (marked pin) | Transient current sink | Connected to protected line; conducts surge current to anode when VWM exceeded, clamping voltage to ≤53.9 V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Side-wettable flanks | Enables automated optical inspection of solder fillet integrity without X-ray, reducing post-reflow defect escape |
| Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant M3 termination | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 and JESD201 Class 2 whisker requirements for long-term reliability in harsh environments |
| Low-profile DFN3820A footprint | 0.078 × 0.086 inch (1.98 × 2.18 mm) body with 0.88 mm height - saves board space vs. DO-220AA while maintaining same thermal interface |
| AEC-Q101 qualified (/H suffix) | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD stress - suitable for under-hood sensor protection |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ36A-E3/57T | DO-214AC package, 36 V VWM, 58.1 V VC @ 10.3 A, RθJA ≈ 50 °C/W higher, no side-wettable flanks | Requires manual AOI or X-ray for solder joint verification; less suitable for ultra-dense layouts due to larger footprint | Select when legacy SMA footprint compatibility is required and thermal budget allows higher junction temperature rise |
| SMCJ36AHE3/73 | DO-214AB package, 36 V VWM, 58.1 V VC @ 10.3 A, 1500 W PPPM rating, no AEC-Q101 qualification | Higher power handling but lacks automotive qualification and side-wettable flanks; larger board area consumption | Choose for non-automotive 1500 W surge applications where DFN size constraints do not apply |
Compared with SMAJ36A-E3/57T and SMCJ36AHE3/73, the 6DFN39A-M3/H delivers superior manufacturability via AOI-compatible side-wettable flanks, tighter thermal resistance control, and AEC-Q101 validation - critical for high-reliability automotive and industrial deployments where board space and process yield are constrained.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for 6DFN39A-M3/H?
The 6DFN39A-M3/H has a ±5 % breakdown voltage tolerance, specified as 37.1 V (min) to 41.0 V (max) at 1.0 mA test current. This tight tolerance ensures predictable clamping behavior across production lots and supports precise overvoltage margin design in safety-critical circuits such as automotive sensor interfaces.
Does 6DFN39A-M3/H meet AEC-Q101 requirements?
Yes, the /H suffix in 6DFN39A-M3/H explicitly denotes AEC-Q101 qualification. The device has passed stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and ESD per JESD22-A114, making it suitable for automotive applications such as body control modules and ADAS sensor protection where reliability under thermal and electrical stress is essential.
What does the M3 suffix indicate in 6DFN39A-M3/H?
The M3 suffix in 6DFN39A-M3/H indicates halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction with matte tin-plated terminals that satisfy J-STD-002 solderability and JESD22-B102 wetting requirements. It also confirms compliance with JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, ensuring long-term interconnect integrity in high-vibration or high-temperature environments.
How is thermal performance characterized for 6DFN39A-M3/H?
Thermal performance of 6DFN39A-M3/H is defined by RθJA = 140–175 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, JEDEC 51-2A, FR4 PCB) and RθJM = 5–6.5 °C/W (junction-to-mount, JEDEC 51-14 TDIM). These values reflect its DFN3820A package's efficient heat transfer through the exposed anode pad to the PCB copper, enabling sustained operation up to +175 °C junction temperature.
Can 6DFN39A-M3/H be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, 6DFN39A-M3/H is strictly unidirectional, as confirmed by its polarity marking (cathode band) and electrical specifications including VWM and VBR defined only for reverse-biased operation. For bidirectional transient suppression, Vishay offers separate dual-diode configurations such as the 6DFN39C-M3/H, which is not interchangeable with the 6DFN39A-M3/H.
