Product details
Overview
P4KE130 from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 400W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for primary overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 130V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR = 117–143V @ 1mA), 105V working stand-off voltage (VWM), clamps to ≤187V at 2.2A peak pulse current, and delivers sub-nanosecond response for ESD and lightning surge suppression in automotive body electronics and industrial I/O modules.
For engineers reviewing the P4KE130 datasheet, P4KE130 pinout, P4KE130 application, or P4KE130 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, DO-41 package details, clamping behavior under 10/1000μs transients, thermal derating curves, and AEC-Q101-qualified alternatives for automotive-grade system hardening.
Technical Context
The P4KE130 operates as a silicon avalanche diode with unidirectional polarity, activated only during positive overvoltage events relative to cathode. Its junction exhibits low dynamic impedance (<1Ω typical during clamping) and temperature coefficient of VBR = +0.107%/°C, enabling stable clamping across -55°C to +175°C operating range.
It meets ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards for non-repetitive 10/1000μs surge waveforms and supports up to 400W peak pulse power at TA = 25°C - derated linearly above ambient per Fig.2. Reverse leakage remains ≤1μA at 105V, ensuring minimal standby power loss in always-on circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 105 V - Maximum continuous DC or RMS voltage the device blocks without significant leakage; defines safe operating margin below clamping threshold. |
| VBR min/max | 117 V / 143 V @ 1 mA - Verified avalanche onset range; ensures predictable turn-on within ±10% tolerance for robust design margining. |
| VC @ IPPM | 187 V @ 2.2 A - Clamped voltage during full 400W 10/1000μs surge; determines maximum stress on downstream ICs. |
| PPK | 400 W - Peak pulse power rating at 25°C; defines single-event surge energy handling capability before failure. |
| TJ max | +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-ambient industrial enclosures. |
| IR @ VWM | ≤1 μA - Reverse leakage at rated stand-off voltage; critical for low-power sensor interfaces and battery-backed systems. |
| Package | DO-204AL (DO-41) - Industry-standard axial leaded package with tin-plated leads compliant to J-STD-002 solderability. |
Pinout & Package
DO-204AL (DO-41) package: axial-leaded, glass-passivated silicon junction, cathode indicated by band marking. Leads are pure tin-plated, solderable per J-STD-002, and meet JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input/Line side (non-banded end) | Connected to protected line; conducts during forward surge only if used in bidirectional configuration with external components. |
| Cathode | Ground/Reference side (banded end) | Connected to system ground or low-impedance return path; defines polarity and clamping reference point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified option (P4KE130H) | Validated for automotive under-hood applications including engine control modules and body domain controllers. |
| 400W surge rating at 10/1000μs | Withstands IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4kV) surges when properly routed with low-inductance PCB layout. |
| Clamping voltage ≤187V at 2.2A | Ensures protected ICs (e.g., CAN transceivers, microcontrollers) remain below absolute maximum ratings during transients. |
| Response time <1.0 ps (unidirectional) | Activates faster than most semiconductor switching events, preventing voltage overshoot before protection engages. |
| RoHS & halogen-free (IEC 61249-2-21) | Complies with automotive and industrial environmental compliance requirements without compromising thermal performance. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ130A | Surface-mount SMB package (vs. axial DO-41); same 130V VBR range but lower 600W PPK rating. | Better suited for high-density PCBs where through-hole mounting is impractical. | Select SMBJ130A when board space is constrained and reflow assembly is preferred over wave soldering. |
| P4KE130A | Tighter VBR tolerance (124–137V vs. 117–143V); identical DO-41 package and 400W rating. | Preferred for precision clamping where narrow voltage window minimizes risk of false triggering. | Choose P4KE130A when system-level validation requires tighter VBR consistency across production lots. |
Compared with P4KE130, SMBJ130A offers higher surge capacity in a compact SMT form factor but requires layout redesign, while P4KE130A delivers tighter breakdown control without changing footprint or assembly process.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of P4KE130 under standard 10/1000μs surge conditions?
The P4KE130 clamps to a maximum of 187 V when subjected to its rated 2.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM), corresponding to a 400 W surge per the 10/1000 μs waveform defined in ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and represents the highest voltage seen by downstream circuitry during transient events.
Is P4KE130 suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No - P4KE130 is a unidirectional TVS diode intended for DC line protection with defined anode/cathode polarity. For bidirectional AC or data-line protection, use the P4KE130CA variant (if available) or pair two P4KE130 devices in series opposition; the "A" suffix (e.g., P4KE130A) denotes tighter VBR tolerance but does not change polarity.
Does P4KE130 meet automotive qualification standards?
The base P4KE130 is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, the P4KE130H variant - explicitly marked with "H" in the ordering code - undergoes full AEC-Q101 stress testing and is approved for automotive under-hood and chassis applications. Always verify the full part number suffix when selecting for automotive use.
What is the reverse leakage current of P4KE130 at its working stand-off voltage?
At its specified working stand-off voltage of 105 V and TA = 25°C, the P4KE130 exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (ID) of 1 μA. This ultra-low leakage preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor interfaces and minimizes quiescent power loss in always-on subsystems.
How does thermal derating affect P4KE130's 400W surge rating?
The 400W peak pulse power rating of P4KE130 applies only at TA = 25°C. Above this temperature, power capability decreases linearly per the derating curve in Fig.2 - e.g., at 75°C ambient, the effective PPK drops to approximately 250W. Proper heatsinking and PCB copper area are essential to maintain performance in high-temperature environments.
