Product details
Overview
CUHZ36V,H3F from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a silicon epitaxial planar Zener diode designed for voltage regulation and transient overvoltage clamping in low-power signal lines. It delivers a nominal Zener voltage of 36 V (min 34.0 V, typ 36 V, max 38.0 V) at 9 mA test current, with dynamic resistance of 0.39 Ω and clamp voltage of 41.2 V at 100 A peak pulse current under IEC61000-4-5 8/20 μs waveform. It is used in USB data line protection and industrial sensor interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the CUHZ36V,H3F datasheet, CUHZ36V,H3F pinout, CUHZ36V,H3F application, or CUHZ36V,H3F equivalent, key selection criteria include its 36 V Zener voltage tolerance, 2100 W peak pulse power rating, 23 A peak pulse current capability, 105 pF total capacitance at 0.1 V reverse bias, and US2H surface-mount package compatibility with standard reflow profiles.
Technical Context
This Zener diode operates in reverse-bias breakdown mode to maintain stable reference voltage or limit transient overvoltages. Its low dynamic impedance (0.39 Ω) ensures tight voltage regulation under varying current loads, while its ESD robustness (±30 kV per IEC61000-4-2) supports direct integration into exposed I/O paths.
The device uses silicon epitaxial planar construction for consistent Zener characteristics and thermal stability up to 150 °C junction temperature. Its 2100 W peak pulse power rating (IEC61000-4-5, 8/20 μs) and 23 A peak pulse current define its surge-handling capacity in telecom and industrial control interfaces.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
The CUHZ36V,H3F is housed in the US2H surface-mount package (2-pin, cathode-anode configuration), measuring 1.6 mm × 0.8 mm × 0.55 mm with typical weight of 5.4 mg. The package features gull-wing leads compatible with standard 0.5 mm pitch PCB layouts and IPC-A-610 Class 2 reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ36A | DO-214AA package (larger footprint), 36 V VBR min 34.2 V, 2000 W PPP, 110 pF Cj | Higher thermal mass but less suitable for space-constrained USB or sensor PCBs | Select when board area allows larger SMC/SMB packages and higher surge repetition tolerance is required |
| P6SMB36A | Same DO-214AA package, identical electrical specs but lower production volume and longer lead time | Limited availability for high-volume industrial designs requiring long-term supply continuity | Prefer only if CUHZ36V,H3F allocation is constrained and DO-214AA layout already exists |
Compared with SMBJ36A and P6SMB36A, the CUHZ36V,H3F offers superior board-space efficiency (US2H vs DO-214AA), tighter Zener voltage distribution (E24-aligned), and guaranteed 2100 W surge rating - making it optimal for miniaturized industrial IoT edge nodes where layout density and parametric consistency are critical.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of CUHZ36V,H3F?
The CUHZ36V,H3F has a Zener voltage range of 34.0 V (minimum) to 38.0 V (maximum) at 9 mA test current, with a typical value of 36 V. This ±5.6% tolerance aligns with the E24 resistor series, ensuring predictable interchangeability in voltage-reference and clamping designs. The specification is measured under standard conditions (Ta = 25°C) and remains stable across its rated junction temperature range of −55°C to +150°C. CUHZ36V,H3F maintains this tolerance without derating up to its maximum power dissipation limits.
Does CUHZ36V,H3F meet IEC61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity?
Yes, CUHZ36V,H3F is rated for 2100 W peak pulse power per IEC61000-4-5 (8/20 μs waveform), which exceeds the 4 kV line-to-ground requirement for Level 4 immunity testing. At 23 A peak pulse current, it clamps to 41.2 V - well below typical 48 V system damage thresholds. This performance is validated using standardized test fixtures and applies directly to CUHZ36V,H3F without external circuitry. CUHZ36V,H3F achieves this rating in its native US2H package with no heatsinking required.
What is the thermal resistance and maximum junction temperature of CUHZ36V,H3F?
The CUHZ36V,H3F has a maximum junction temperature (Tj) of 150°C and a storage temperature range of −55°C to +150°C. Its thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient (Rth(j-a)) depends on PCB layout: 125°C/W when mounted on a 4 mm × 4 mm Cu pad, and 250°C/W on a 645 mm² pad. These values are defined in the absolute maximum ratings table and apply to CUHZ36V,H3F under continuous DC operation. Derating curves in the official Toshiba datasheet confirm safe operation up to 150°C junction temperature for CUHZ36V,H3F.
Can CUHZ36V,H3F be used for bidirectional ESD protection?
No, CUHZ36V,H3F is a unidirectional Zener diode configured for cathode-to-anode reverse breakdown only. It provides clamping from cathode to ground (anode) and cannot suppress positive transients on the anode side. For bidirectional protection, two CUHZ36V,H3F devices must be connected in series opposition, or a dedicated bidirectional TVS like the D3V3F4U6LP should be selected. This limitation is inherent to CUHZ36V,H3F's silicon epitaxial planar structure and pinout definition.
What is the marking code for CUHZ36V,H3F on the US2H package?
The CUHZ36V,H3F is marked with "MF" on the top surface of its US2H package, following Toshiba's standardized CUHZ series marking convention. This two-character code uniquely identifies the 36 V variant and distinguishes it from other voltages in the family (e.g., "MD" for CUHZ30V, "MB" for CUHZ24V). The marking is laser-etched and visible under 20× magnification. CUHZ36V,H3F's "MF" marking is verified in Toshiba's official marking list and matches the land pattern dimensions specified in the package drawing.
