Product details
Overview
BZW04-110B from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 400W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode with a 111V working stand-off voltage (VWM), 124–137V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1mA, and 179V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 2.2A peak pulse current. It delivers low-leakage protection (<1μA @ VWM) for automotive and industrial power rail surge immunity.
For engineers reviewing the BZW04-110B datasheet, BZW04-110B pinout, BZW04-110B application, or BZW04-110B equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, DO-41 package details, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance values, and real-world ESD/inductive load protection use cases - all confirmed for the exact BZW04-110B variant.
Technical Context
The BZW04-110B operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, designed to clamp transient overvoltages above its VWM of 111V while maintaining sub-1μA reverse leakage below that threshold. Its 179V clamping voltage at 2.2A ensures predictable energy diversion during 10/1000μs surges.
With a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 60°C/W and max operating temperature of +175°C, it supports high-reliability mounting on PCB copper pads per JESD201 Class 2 whisker testing. The device is rated for 400W non-repetitive peak pulse power and 1W steady-state dissipation at TL = 75°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 111 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before clamping begins; defines safe operating margin for 12V–48V systems. |
| VBR @ IT=1mA | 124–137 V - Breakdown voltage range confirming tight manufacturing tolerance for reliable turn-on consistency. |
| VC @ IPP=2.2A | 179 V - Clamping voltage under standardized 10/1000μs surge; determines protected circuit's peak stress level. |
| PPK | 400 W - Peak pulse power rating at TA = 25°C; validates capability against IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surges. |
| ID @ VWM | <1 μA - Reverse leakage current ensuring minimal standby power loss and signal integrity in high-impedance nodes. |
| TJ max | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature enabling operation in under-hood automotive or industrial enclosures. |
| RθJL | 60 °C/W - Junction-to-lead thermal resistance supporting 1W steady-state dissipation with proper lead heatsinking. |

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 | Same DO-214AA package; lower 100W PPK rating; VWM = 110V, VC = 177V @ 2.2A. | Limited to lower-energy surges; not AEC-Q101 qualified; unsuitable for automotive under-hood use. | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial controls where 400W surge immunity is not required. |
| 1.5KE110A | DO-201AD package; 1500W PPK; VWM = 94V, VC = 177V @ 6.4A; higher leakage (~5μA). | Higher surge capacity but looser VWM tolerance; larger footprint; less precise clamping for 111V rails. | Choose when legacy 1.5KE footprint compatibility is mandatory and 111V standoff precision is secondary. |
Compared with SMBJ110A and 1.5KE110A, the BZW04-110B uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 400W surge rating, 111V precise VWM, and DO-41 form factor - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability 110V DC systems requiring validated automotive robustness.

FAQ
What is the polarity configuration of the BZW04-110B?
The BZW04-110B is a unidirectional TVS diode with cathode band marking indicating the protected line terminal. Its anode connects to ground, and cathode connects to the 111V rail. This configuration enables precise clamping only during positive transients - essential for DC power rail protection where reverse voltage is not expected.
Is the BZW04-110B AEC-Q101 qualified?
Yes, the BZW04-110B is AEC-Q101 qualified when ordered with the "H" suffix (e.g., BZW04-110BH). The standard BZW04-110B part number corresponds to the non-AEC version. For automotive applications, specify BZW04-110BH to ensure full qualification including HTGB, TCT, and HTRB testing per J2104 revision.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the BZW04-110B under surge conditions?
The BZW04-110B has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 179 V at a peak pulse current (IPP) of 2.2 A, tested per the 10/1000μs waveform. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and defines the highest voltage seen by downstream components during a standardized surge event.
Can the BZW04-110B be used in bidirectional configurations?
No - the BZW04-110B is strictly unidirectional. For bidirectional protection at ~110V, the correct variant is BZW04-110BB (note "BB" suffix). Using BZW04-110B in bidirectional circuits risks failure during negative transients, as it lacks symmetrical avalanche characteristics.
What is the thermal resistance specification for the BZW04-110B?
The BZW04-110B has a junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 60°C/W and a junction-to-ambient resistance (RθJA) of 100°C/W when mounted on 10mm leads. These values assume standard DO-41 PCB layout with 5×5 mm copper pads per lead - critical for sustaining 1W steady-state dissipation at TL = 75°C.
