Product details
Overview
P4SMA110AH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 400W surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode with a working stand-off voltage of 94.0 V, breakdown voltage range of 105–116 V at 1 mA, and clamping voltage of 152 V at 2.7 A peak pulse current under 10/1000 µs waveform. It is AEC-Q101 qualified and used for surge protection in automotive DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the P4SMA110AH datasheet, P4SMA110AH pinout, P4SMA110AH application, or P4SMA110AH equivalent, key selection criteria include its DO-214AC (SMA) package, unidirectional polarity, 150°C max junction temperature, ISO 7637-2 compliance, and low leakage (<1 µA at 94 V).
Technical Context
The P4SMA110AH operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, leveraging glass-passivated junction technology to achieve fast response (<1.0 ps) and stable clamping during transients. Its electrical behavior follows ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards, with breakdown tested using 300 µs square-wave pulses.
It is rated for non-repetitive 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), derates linearly above 25°C ambient per Fig.2, and supports 40 A peak forward surge (8.3 ms half-sine). Polarity is marked by cathode band; moisture sensitivity level is J-STD-020 Level 1.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110A | Same VWM (94 V), identical DO-214AA package but 600 W PPPM rating; higher clamping voltage (187 V). | Better suited for higher-energy transients where board space allows larger SMB footprint. | Select SMBJ110A when system-level surge tests exceed IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 and clamping margin permits. |
| 1.5SMC110A | Same VWM (94 V), DO-214AB (SMC) package; 1500 W PPPM; clamping voltage 187 V; higher thermal mass. | Used in industrial power supplies requiring extended surge endurance and manual soldering compatibility. | Choose 1.5SMC110A for through-hole legacy designs or where 1500 W single-pulse immunity is mandated. |
Compared with P4SMA110AH, SMBJ110A offers higher power handling in a slightly larger footprint, while 1.5SMC110A provides significantly greater surge capacity in a through-hole package-neither is pin-compatible, but all three share identical VWM and VBR ranges for functional substitution in layout-aware designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the P4SMA110AH under standard test conditions?
The P4SMA110AH has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 152 V when subjected to a 10/1000 µs peak impulse current of 2.7 A. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and represents the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The P4SMA110AH maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range of –55°C to +150°C.
Is the P4SMA110AH suitable for bidirectional transient suppression?
No, the P4SMA110AH is a unidirectional TVS diode, indicated by the absence of "CAH" suffix and presence of cathode band marking. For bidirectional operation, Taiwan Semiconductor specifies the P4SMA110CAH variant. Using P4SMA110AH in bidirectional configurations risks failure during positive-going transients, as it lacks symmetrical breakdown characteristics. Always verify polarity marking before PCB placement.
Does the P4SMA110AH meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, the P4SMA110AH is AEC-Q101 qualified and meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b requirements for automotive electrical systems. Its glass-passivated junction, J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity, and 150°C maximum junction temperature support under-hood deployment. Full qualification data is documented in Taiwan Semiconductor's AEC-Q101 report for the P4SMAx(A)H family.
What is the leakage current specification for the P4SMA110AH at its working voltage?
The P4SMA110AH exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of less than 1 µA when biased at its working stand-off voltage (VWM) of 94.0 V. This ultra-low leakage is confirmed at TA = 25°C and ensures minimal power loss in always-on automotive modules such as body control units and sensor interfaces where quiescent current budgets are tightly constrained.
Can the P4SMA110AH be used in automated SMT assembly processes?
Yes, the P4SMA110AH is optimized for automated placement with its DO-214AC (SMA) package, matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability standards, and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity-eliminating bake requirements prior to reflow. Its 0.060 g weight and standardized tape-and-reel packaging (7,500 pcs per reel) support high-throughput pick-and-place operations without tombstoning or alignment issues.
