Product details
Overview
MSP3V3HM3/89A from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in the MicroSMP (DO-219AD) package, rated for 3.3 V stand-off voltage, 4.1–5.1 V breakdown, 150 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), and AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications. It protects ICs and MOSFETs against ESD (15 kV air, 8 kV contact) and inductive switching transients on low-voltage signal and power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MSP3V3HM3/89A datasheet, MSP3V3HM3/89A pinout, MSP3V3HM3/89A application, or MSP3V3HM3/89A equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (7.6 V max at 19.7 A), junction capacitance (~4.5 pF at 0 V), thermal resistance (RθJM = 30 °C/W), automotive qualification, and MicroSMP footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MSP3V3HM3/89A employs an oxide planar chip junction and unidirectional polarity to provide fast-response transient suppression for 3.3 V systems. Its design targets automotive-grade reliability with MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity, JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and operation from –55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.
It delivers 150 W peak pulse power under standardized 10/1000 μs waveform conditions when mounted on 6.0 mm × 6.0 mm copper pads, with clamping governed by VCL = RD × IPPM + VBR(max), where RD is 0.127 Ω and VBR(max) is 5.10 V - enabling predictable overvoltage limiting in sensitive 3.3 V interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 3.3 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction begins; ensures no leakage interference on 3.3 V logic/sensor lines. |
| VBR (min/max) | 4.10 V / 5.10 V at 1.0 mA - precise breakdown threshold guarantees activation just above nominal rail, minimizing false triggering. |
| VCL @ IPPM | 7.6 V at 19.7 A - clamping voltage limits transient overshoot to safe levels for 3.3 V I/O pins and gate drivers. |
| PPPM | 150 W (10/1000 μs) - robust surge handling for automotive load-dump and inductive switch-off events. |
| Junction Temp Range | –55 °C to +150 °C - supports under-hood and engine-control module deployment without derating. |
| ESD Rating | 15 kV air / 8 kV contact per IEC 61000-4-2 - meets automotive system-level ESD immunity requirements. |
| Package | MicroSMP (DO-219AD), 2.70 mm × 1.40 mm × 0.65 mm - ultra-low profile enables placement on space-constrained sensor PCBs and flex-rigid assemblies. |
Pinout & Package
Package: MicroSMP (DO-219AD), surface-mount, unidirectional configuration with cathode denoted by color band. Dimensions: 2.70 mm × 1.40 mm × 0.65 mm (L × W × H), compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering per J-STD-002/JESD 22-B102.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ3.3A | DO-214AC package (larger: 4.5 mm × 2.7 mm), higher RθJA (50 °C/W), same VWM/VBR specs | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; suitable for industrial but not automotive under-hood use | Select SMAJ3.3A only if board space allows larger footprint and automotive qualification is not required. |
| TPSMF3.3A | MicroSMP package, same dimensions, but lower PPPM (200 W vs. 150 W), tighter VBR tolerance (4.2–4.6 V) | Higher clamping margin (8.2 V @ 24.4 A); optimized for consumer-grade ESD rather than automotive surge | Choose TPSMF3.3A when higher surge margin is needed and AEC-Q101 is optional; verify layout compatibility with identical pad geometry. |
Compared with SMAJ3.3A and TPSMF3.3A, the MSP3V3HM3/89A uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, MicroSMP size, and precisely tuned 3.3 V clamping for automotive signal-line protection - making it the only option validated for under-hood deployment with zero layout compromise.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the MSP3V3HM3/89A at its rated peak pulse current?
The MSP3V3HM3/89A has a maximum clamping voltage (VCL) of 7.6 V at 19.7 A peak pulse current (10/1000 μs waveform). This value is derived from its dynamic resistance (RD = 0.127 Ω) and maximum breakdown voltage (VBR(max) = 5.10 V), calculated as VCL = RD × IPPM + VBR(max). This ensures safe operation for 3.3 V logic interfaces.
Is the MSP3V3HM3/89A suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, the MSP3V3HM3/89A is unidirectional only, as confirmed by its polarity marking (cathode band) and electrical specifications. It conducts only when the cathode is positive relative to the anode. For bidirectional protection, a different device such as the SMBJ3.3CA would be required - the MSP3V3HM3/89A must be used with correct orientation in DC-biased circuits.
Does the MSP3V3HM3/89A meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, the MSP3V3HM3/89A is AEC-Q101 qualified, verified per the official Vishay datasheet (Document Number 88486, Revision 09-Nov-2020). This includes passing human body model ESD testing (>8 kV contact mode) and full stress qualification for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock - confirming suitability for automotive powertrain and chassis applications.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for optimal thermal performance of the MSP3V3HM3/89A?
Vishay specifies a minimum 6.0 mm × 6.0 mm copper pad area per terminal for the MSP3V3HM3/89A to achieve RθJM = 30 °C/W. The pad layout must follow the MicroSMP (DO-219AD) outline in the datasheet, with solder mask defined pads and thermal vias recommended beneath the pads to enhance heat dissipation in high-surge environments.
How does the HM3 suffix differ from the M3 suffix in the MSP3V3HM3/89A part number?
The HM3 suffix denotes automotive-grade qualification: halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, and qualified to JESD 201 Class 2 for whisker resistance - whereas M3 is industrial grade. Both share identical electrical specs and MicroSMP packaging, but only HM3 carries AEC-Q101 validation and is approved for automotive under-hood use per Vishay's ordering information table.
