Product details

Overview

MSP5.0A-E3/89A from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount TRANSZORB® transient voltage suppressor in MicroSMP (DO-219AD) package, rated for 5.0 V stand-off voltage, 6.40–7.07 V breakdown at 10 mA, 150 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), and AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive-grade surge protection on signal and power lines.

For engineers reviewing the MSP5.0A-E3/89A datasheet, MSP5.0A-E3/89A pinout, MSP5.0A-E3/89A application, or MSP5.0A-E3/89A equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (9.2 V max at 16.3 A), low profile (0.65 mm height), ESD robustness (15 kV air / 8 kV contact), thermal resistance (RθJA = 250 °C/W), and MicroSMP mechanical compatibility with automated SMT placement.

Technical Context

The MSP5.0A-E3/89A employs an oxide planar chip junction and operates as a unidirectional TVS diode, conducting only during positive transients relative to cathode. Its clamping behavior follows VCL = RD × IPPM + VBR(max), with dynamic resistance RD = 0.131 Ω (10/1000 μs) enabling predictable overvoltage suppression under fast-rising surges.

Designed for PCB top-side mounting only, it meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020C with 260 °C peak reflow, supports 1 oz. copper pad layouts (6.0 mm × 6.0 mm per terminal), and delivers 150 °C maximum junction temperature operation with derated power dissipation above 25 °C ambient.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
VWM 5.0 V - Maximum reverse stand-off voltage before conduction; ensures no leakage during normal 5 V system operation.
VBR (min/max) 6.40 V / 7.07 V at 10 mA - Confirmed breakdown range defines turn-on threshold tolerance for transient detection.
VCL @ IPPM 9.2 V max at 16.3 A (10/1000 μs) - Clamping voltage limits downstream IC stress during standardized surge events.
PPPM 150 W - Peak pulse power handling capacity for 10/1000 μs waveform; determines survivability against inductive switching spikes.
RD 0.131 Ω - Dynamic resistance directly impacts clamping voltage rise under surge current; enables precise VCL calculation.
TJ max 150 °C - Maximum junction temperature sets thermal design margin for continuous power cycling and high-ambient environments.
ESD Rating 15 kV air / 8 kV contact per IEC 61000-4-2 - Validates immunity to human-body model discharges in end-equipment handling and operation.

Pinout & Package

Package: MicroSMP (DO-219AD), 2-terminal surface-mount device with cathode band marking; dimensions 2.70 mm × 1.40 mm × 0.65 mm (L × W × H); matte tin-plated terminals, RoHS-compliant, halogen-free.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
Anode Transient current return path during clamping Connected to protected line (e.g., signal or power rail); conducts surge current to ground when VAK exceeds VBR.
Cathode Reference terminal (marked by color band) Connected to system ground or lower-potential reference; polarity must be observed to ensure unidirectional clamping action.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
MicroSMP footprint Enables high-density layout in space-constrained applications such as automotive sensor modules and portable electronics.

150 W pulse rating Provides robust protection against ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/3a and IEC 61000-4-5 surge waveforms in industrial and automotive systems.

Applications

Automotive Sensor Protection Industrial I/O Interface

Use Scenario: Protecting CAN/LIN bus transceivers and analog sensor outputs (e.g., pressure, temperature) from load-dump and inductive switching transients in vehicle ECUs.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS clamping element placed between signal line and chassis ground to limit overvoltage to safe levels during transients.

Use Value: Prevents latch-up or permanent damage to 5 V-rated transceivers by clamping surges to ≤9.2 V while maintaining <100 µA leakage at 5 V.

Use Scenario: Safeguarding PLC digital input channels and RS-485 transceiver pins against field-induced surges in factory automation equipment.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff-clamp TVS connected across differential or single-ended signal lines to absorb energy from lightning-induced or EFT events.

Use Value: Ensures functional safety compliance (IEC 61000-4-4/5) with 150 W pulse handling and 15 kV ESD immunity without degrading signal integrity at 1 Mbps.

USB Power Line Protection Consumer Device Battery Charging Port

Use Scenario: Shielding USB VBUS lines in docking stations and host controllers from hot-plug overshoot and external ESD events.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage clamp on 5 V supply rail upstream of USB PD controller or port power switch.

Use Value: Limits VBUS excursions to ≤9.2 V during 16.3 A transients, preserving USB-IF compliance and preventing damage to Type-C CC logic.

Use Scenario: Hardening micro-USB or USB-C charging ports in smartphones and wearables against user-handling ESD and adapter surge.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (typ. 5.5 pF at 0 V) unidirectional TVS placed between VBUS and GND adjacent to connector.

Use Value: Delivers 8 kV contact ESD protection without distorting 5 V charging signals or triggering false overvoltage faults in battery management ICs.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
SMAJ5.0A Same VWM (5.0 V), higher VCL (10.8 V @ 14.8 A), SMA package (larger footprint, 2.3 mm height) Less suitable for ultra-thin designs; better thermal mass for higher average power but incompatible with MicroSMP land patterns Select SMAJ5.0A only if board space allows larger package and higher clamping voltage is acceptable.
SMF5.0A Same VWM (5.0 V), lower PPPM (200 W), SOD-123FL package (1.7 mm height, 2.7 mm × 1.7 mm) Higher clamping (11.2 V @ 17.9 A) and reduced surge margin; not AEC-Q101 qualified Choose SMF5.0A for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications where 200 W rating suffices and AEC-Q101 is unnecessary.

Compared with SMAJ5.0A and SMF5.0A, the MSP5.0A-E3/89A provides the lowest profile (0.65 mm), tightest clamping (9.2 V), and automotive qualification-making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-critical 5 V line protection where layout density and reliability are prioritized over raw power rating.

FAQ

What is the exact package type and dimensions of the MSP5.0A-E3/89A?

The MSP5.0A-E3/89A uses the MicroSMP (DO-219AD) package, measuring 2.70 mm × 1.40 mm × 0.65 mm (L × W × H) with a cathode band marking. Its footprint requires 6.0 mm × 6.0 mm copper pads per terminal for full 150 W pulse rating, and it complies with MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020C for lead-free reflow up to 260 °C. This package is distinct from SMA or SOD-123 variants.

Does the MSP5.0A-E3/89A support bidirectional transient suppression?

No, the MSP5.0A-E3/89A is strictly unidirectional, as confirmed by its polarity specification and cathode-band marking. It clamps only when the anode voltage exceeds the cathode by ≥6.40 V. For bidirectional protection, Vishay offers separate part numbers such as the SMBJ5.0CA; the MSP5.0A-E3/89A must be oriented correctly in-circuit to avoid reverse-bias failure.

What is the maximum clamping voltage of the MSP5.0A-E3/89A under standard test conditions?

The MSP5.0A-E3/89A has a maximum clamping voltage of 9.2 V at 16.3 A using the 10/1000 μs waveform, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value is derived from VCL = RD × IPPM + VBR(max), where RD = 0.131 Ω and VBR(max) = 7.07 V. It does not exceed 9.2 V under validated test conditions.

Is the MSP5.0A-E3/89A qualified for automotive applications?

Yes, the MSP5.0A-E3/89A is AEC-Q101 qualified, as explicitly stated in the Features section and Immunity table. It meets Human Body Model Class H3B (>8 kV contact) and supports operating junction temperatures from –55 °C to +150 °C-fulfilling requirements for under-hood and cabin-mounted automotive electronics including sensor interfaces and body control modules.

How does the MSP5.0A-E3/89A compare to the MSP3V3 variant in terms of electrical parameters?

The MSP5.0A-E3/89A differs from MSP3V3 in stand-off voltage (5.0 V vs. 3.3 V), breakdown range (6.40–7.07 V vs. 4.10–5.10 V), and clamping voltage (9.2 V vs. 7.6 V at respective IPPM). Both share identical MicroSMP packaging, 150 W rating, and AEC-Q101 qualification-but MSP5.0A-E3/89A is intended for 5 V systems, while MSP3V3 targets 3.3 V logic and interface protection.
