Product details
Overview
DFLT30A-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a unidirectional 30V standoff transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in PowerDI123 package, rated for 225W peak pulse power (10/1000µs), 48.4V max clamping voltage at 4.65A IPP, and 1.0W DC power dissipation. It protects automotive and industrial DC power rails against ESD, lightning surges, and load dump transients.
For engineers reviewing the DFLT30A-7 datasheet, DFLT30A-7 pinout, DFLT30A-7 application, or DFLT30A-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse standoff voltage (30V), clamping performance (VC = 48.4V @ IPP = 4.65A), thermal resistance (RθJA = 125°C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive use.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a unidirectional clamping device with cathode-band polarity, designed to shunt transient energy to ground when reverse voltage exceeds 30V VRWM. Its silicon avalanche structure ensures fast response (<1ns) and stable breakdown at 33.3–36.8V (VBR min/max).
It is optimized for surface-mount placement on FR-4 PCBs with 1-inch² 2oz copper pad, delivering 125°C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance and 6°C/W junction-to-solder-point resistance-critical for sustained surge handling in compact power electronics layouts.

| Max Clamping Voltage | 48.4 V @ 4.65 A - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during 10/1000µs surge |
| Peak Pulse Power | 225 W - Sustained transient energy absorption capability per single 10/1000µs event |
| Thermal Resistance | 125 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient rating on standard FR-4 board, defines derating above +25°C |
| Operating Temp Range | −65 to +150 °C - Validated performance across extended automotive and industrial temperature extremes |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (≈15 pF @ 0V) TVS minimizing signal integrity impact on adjacent analog sensors. Use Value: Maintains <1 µA leakage at 30V, avoiding false triggers in safety-critical low-current monitoring circuits. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ30A | Same 30V VRWM, but SMA package; lower PPK (400W) yet higher RθJA (150°C/W); VF = 3.5V same | Larger footprint; less suitable for high-density automotive PCBs requiring PowerDI123 miniaturization | Select when legacy SMA layout exists and thermal margin allows higher junction rise |
| DFLT30AQ-7 | AEC-Q101 qualified version; identical electrical specs; same PowerDI123 package; automotive change control documentation included | Required for production automotive programs needing PPAP submission and IATF 16949 traceability | Choose for OEM/ Tier-1 designs where automotive qualification is mandatory |
Compared with SMAJ30A and DFLT30AQ-7, DFLT30A-7 delivers optimal balance of miniaturized footprint, proven 225W surge capacity, and industrial-grade reliability-making it ideal for space-constrained non-automotive 24V systems where AEC-Q101 is not mandated.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of DFLT30A-7 at its rated peak pulse current?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) is 48.4 V at 4.65 A peak pulse current (IPP), measured under the standardized 10/1000 µs double-exponential waveform. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range (−65°C to +150°C) and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events.
Is DFLT30A-7 suitable for automotive applications?
DFLT30A-7 itself is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the pin- and form-compatible DFLT30AQ-7 variant is fully qualified to AEC-Q101, manufactured in IATF 16949-certified facilities, and supports PPAP documentation. For non-automotive industrial or telecom use, DFLT30A-7 meets all electrical and reliability requirements without automotive certification overhead.
How does the PowerDI123 package compare thermally to SMA or SMB packages?
PowerDI123 offers RθJA = 125°C/W on FR-4 with 1-inch² 2oz copper, outperforming SMA (RθJA ≈ 150°C/W) and matching SMB in thermal efficiency while occupying ~30% less board area. Its low RθJS = 6°C/W enables efficient heat transfer directly from die to solder joint, critical for repeated surge duty cycles.
What is the reverse leakage current at rated standoff voltage?
At VRWM = 30 V and TA = +25°C, the maximum reverse leakage current (IR) is 1.0 µA. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal power loss in always-on 24V systems and prevents false triggering in high-impedance sensing circuits downstream of the TVS device.
