Product details
Overview
P4KE130AHE3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-41 package, designed for robust overvoltage protection of sensitive electronics. It features a 124 V to 137 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 111 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 179 V clamping voltage (VC) at 2.2 A peak pulse current, and 400 W peak pulse power rating with 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in automotive power line and industrial sensor interface protection.
For engineers reviewing the P4KE130AHE3/54 datasheet, P4KE130AHE3/54 pinout, P4KE130AHE3/54 application, or P4KE130AHE3/54 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, AEC-Q101 qualification status, DO-41 mechanical dimensions, thermal resistance data, and real-world design context for transient suppression in 12 V/24 V systems.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector: when reverse voltage exceeds VWM = 111 V, it avalanches into low-impedance conduction to divert surge energy away from downstream circuitry. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable VBR tolerance (±5%) and low leakage (<1.0 µA at VWM).
Designed for 10/1000 µs surge waveforms per IEC 61000-4-5, it delivers 179 V clamping at 2.2 A IPPM with 0.107 %/°C temperature coefficient of VBR, enabling predictable performance across –55 °C to +175 °C operating junction range. Thermal resistance RθJL = 66 °C/W supports reliable power dissipation under repetitive transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 124 V / 137 V at 1.0 mA test current - defines precise avalanche onset window for repeatable clamping threshold |
| VWM | 111 V - maximum continuous reverse working voltage before significant leakage begins |
| VC @ IPPM | 179 V at 2.2 A - clamped voltage during 400 W surge, limiting stress on protected ICs or MOSFETs |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling capability with 10/1000 µs waveform, 0.01% duty cycle |
| IFSM | 40 A - non-repetitive forward surge current rating (8.3 ms half-sine), critical for input rectifier stage protection |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - extended junction temperature enables use in under-hood automotive and high-ambient industrial environments |
| RθJL | 66 °C/W - low junction-to-lead thermal resistance allows effective heat transfer to PCB copper or heatsink |
Pinout & Package
DO-41 (DO-204AL) molded epoxy package with axial leads; matte tin-plated terminals solderable per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102; cathode indicated by color band on body end.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (banded end) | Reverse-biased reference terminal | Connected to ground or low-impedance return path; color band identifies cathode, so anode is opposite end |
| Cathode (banded end) | Surge current sink node | Connected to protected line (e.g., 12 V rail); conducts avalanche current to ground during overvoltage events |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass passivated chip junction | Ensures ±5% VBR tolerance and long-term stability under thermal cycling and humidity exposure |
| AEC-Q101 qualified (HE3 suffix) | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD testing per stress requirements |
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Protects against ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/3a and IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 surges in 12 V/24 V systems |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes VC overshoot during fast-rising transients (e.g., inductive switch-off), improving system immunity |
| RoHS-compliant, UL 94 V-0 molding compound | Meets environmental compliance and flame-retardant safety standards for industrial and automotive end equipment |
Applications
| Automotive Power Line Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface |

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 | DO-214AA package; 130 V VBR; 200 W PPPM; lower surge rating and smaller footprint | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs where 200 W clamping suffices and lead-free reflow is required | Select SMBJ130A only if board layout cannot accommodate axial DO-41 and peak surge energy is ≤200 W |
| 1.5KE130A | DO-201AD package; same VBR range; 1500 W PPPM; higher surge capacity but larger size and higher VC (193 V) | Used in high-energy industrial drive systems requiring >400 W pulse handling | Choose 1.5KE130A when protecting against severe lightning-induced surges where 1500 W rating is mandatory |
Compared with SMBJ130A, P4KE130AHE3/54 offers 2× peak power (400 W vs. 200 W) and AEC-Q101 qualification; versus 1.5KE130A, it provides tighter VC (179 V vs. 193 V) and smaller thermal mass for faster response, making it optimal for automotive and mid-energy industrial protection.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for P4KE130AHE3/54?
The P4KE130AHE3/54 has a specified breakdown voltage range of 124 V to 137 V at 1.0 mA test current, corresponding to a ±5% tolerance around the nominal 130 V rating. This tight tolerance ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports reliable overvoltage protection design in automotive and industrial systems where precise threshold control is critical.
Is P4KE130AHE3/54 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, P4KE130AHE3/54 is AEC-Q101 qualified (denoted by the HE3 suffix), meaning it has passed rigorous stress tests including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. Its –55 °C to +175 °C operating range and DO-41 package with matte tin leads make it suitable for under-hood and chassis-mounted automotive electronics.
What does the "HE3/54" suffix mean in P4KE130AHE3/54?
The "HE3" suffix indicates RoHS-compliant construction with AEC-Q101 qualification and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance; "/54" specifies packaging in 13-inch paper tape and reel with 5500 units per reel. This ordering code confirms full compliance with automotive reliability standards and standard surface-mount handling logistics despite its axial DO-41 form factor.
How does P4KE130AHE3/54 compare to bidirectional TVS diodes like P4KE130CA?
P4KE130AHE3/54 is unidirectional and features a cathode band for polarity-sensitive placement, while P4KE130CA is bidirectional with no marking and symmetrical clamping in both directions. The unidirectional version offers lower leakage (<1.0 µA at 111 V) and is preferred for DC rail protection; bidirectional types suit AC-coupled or floating signal lines where polarity reversal may occur.
What is the thermal resistance of P4KE130AHE3/54, and why does it matter?
P4KE130AHE3/54 has a typical junction-to-lead thermal resistance (RθJL) of 66 °C/W. This value directly impacts how effectively surge energy is dissipated as heat through the leads into the PCB copper. Lower RθJL enables higher permissible surge repetition rates and improves reliability in thermally constrained layouts - especially important in automotive modules with limited airflow.
