Product details
Overview
LDP01-47AY from STMicroelectronics is an automotive-grade Transil™ TVS diode designed for load-dump protection in 12 V and 24 V vehicle electrical systems. It features a 47 V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR = 44.4–49 V at IR = 1 mA), clamps to ≤76.5 V at 950 A (10/1000 µs), and operates up to Tj = 175 °C - enabling robust surge suppression in engine control units, body control modules, and powertrain ECUs.
For engineers reviewing the LDP01-47AY datasheet, LDP01-47AY pinout, LDP01-47AY application, or LDP01-47AY equivalent, key selection criteria include ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a/b and ISO 16750-2 Test A/B compliance, low leakage (<1 µA at 25 °C), D²PAK thermal performance (Rth(j-c) = 0.24 °C/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood deployment.
Technical Context
The LDP01-47AY is a unidirectional, planar-junction TVS diode optimized for high-energy transients in automotive supply rails. Its design targets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a (load dump, VS = −150 V) and Pulse 5b (VS = +112 V), as well as ISO 16750-2 Tests A (US up to 90 V) and B (US* up to 85 V), with clamping validated at 950 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs).
It delivers stable performance across −55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature, supported by a temperature coefficient αT = 10.1 × 10−4/°C for VBR and VCL, and maintains <1 µA leakage at rated stand-off voltage (VRM = 40 V) - critical for low-power always-on circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 44.4–49 V at IR = 1 mA - defines minimum conduction threshold during overvoltage events |
| Stand-off Voltage (VRM) | 40 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before leakage exceeds 1 µA |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | ≤76.5 V at IPP = 950 A (10/1000 µs) - limits downstream IC stress during load dump |
| Peak Pulse Power (PPP) | 5.4 kW at Tj = 25 °C - supports high-energy transient absorption without thermal runaway |
| Junction Temperature Range | −55 to +175 °C - enables placement near heat sources (e.g., power MOSFETs, ignition coils) |
| AEC-Q101 Compliance | Qualified per automotive reliability standard - validates suitability for safety-critical ECU applications |
| ISO Standards | Complies with ISO 7637-2 (Pulses 1, 2a, 3a/b, 5a/b) and ISO 16750-2 (Tests A & B) |
Pinout & Package
Package: D²PAK (TO-263AB), JEDEC registered, UL 94 V0-rated epoxy, surface-mount with exposed copper drain tab for thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Tab) | Common cathode connection point | Electrically tied to metal tab - must be soldered to PCB copper pour for thermal and electrical grounding |
| Cathode (Pin 1) | Surge current return path | Connected to protected circuit ground; carries full 950 A transient current during clamping |
| Anode (Pin 2) | Supply rail input | Connected to battery or alternator line; withstands −150 V to +112 V transients per ISO 7637-2 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-Temperature Operation | Rated for continuous operation at Tj = 175 °C - eliminates derating in under-hood environments |
| Low Leakage Current | ≤1 µA at VRM = 40 V and 25 °C - preserves battery life in always-on vehicle networks |
| Robust Clamping Consistency | VCL variation < ±5% across temperature (−55 to +175 °C) due to αT = 10.1 × 10−4/°C |
| D²PAK Thermal Performance | Rth(j-c) = 0.24 °C/W - enables >5 kW pulse power handling with minimal junction rise |
| Automotive Qualification | AEC-Q101 qualified and RoHS/halogen-free - meets OEM component sourcing requirements |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Body Control Module (BCM) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar automotive TVS protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ47A | DO-214AC package; lower PPP = 400 W; VBR = 44.7–49.4 V; Rth(j-c) ≈ 50 °C/W | Not suitable for load-dump - limited to ESD/low-energy transients; requires external heatsinking for >100 A pulses | Select only for cost-sensitive non-load-dump applications where space constraints prohibit D²PAK |
| SMCJ47A | DO-214AB package; PPP = 1500 W; VBR = 44.7–49.4 V; Tj(max) = 150 °C; no AEC-Q101 certification | Meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a but not Pulse 5a/b; insufficient for sustained load-dump energy | Acceptable for non-safety-critical infotainment systems lacking AEC-Q101 requirement |
Compared with SMAJ47A and SMCJ47A, the LDP01-47AY uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 175 °C operation, D²PAK thermal efficiency (0.24 °C/W), and validated ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a/b clamping - making it the only drop-in solution for high-reliability powertrain and ADAS supply protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum peak pulse current the LDP01-47AY can handle?
The LDP01-47AY is rated for 950 A peak pulse current under the 10/1000 µs waveform at Tj = 25 °C, with clamping voltage ≤76.5 V. At Tj = 175 °C, its derated peak pulse power drops to ~2.8 kW, corresponding to ~550 A under the same waveform - verified in Figure 3 of the official datasheet (DocID026556 Rev 2).
Is the LDP01-47AY bidirectional or unidirectional?
The LDP01-47AY is a unidirectional TVS diode, designed for protection of positive-supply rails only. Its schematic symbol shows cathode-to-rail orientation, and all ISO 7637-2 and ISO 16750-2 test data in the datasheet assume unidirectional configuration - confirmed by the "Automotive TVS for load dump protection" designation and absence of reverse standoff rating.
How should the D²PAK tab be connected on the PCB?
The metal tab (anode) must be soldered to a large, thermally robust copper pour connected to system ground. Per Figure 19 and Table 5, the tab occupies the full underside of the D²PAK package and serves as both electrical return and primary thermal path - inadequate copper area causes junction overheating and premature failure during repetitive load-dump events.
Does the LDP01-47AY meet ISO 10605 for ESD protection?
Yes - the LDP01-47AY exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (±30 kV air/contact discharge) and fully complies with ISO 10605 (C = 330 pF, R = 330 Ω) at ±30 kV, as stated in the "Complies with the following standards" section of the datasheet. Its low dynamic impedance (RD = 29 mΩ) ensures rapid clamping response to sub-nanosecond ESD events.
