Product details
Overview
P4SMA130AHE3/61 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMA (DO-214AC) package, rated for 130 V standoff voltage (VWM), 124–137 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, and 179 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 1.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under 10/1000 µs waveform. It delivers 400 W peak pulse power, supports automotive-grade reliability per AEC-Q101, and protects MOSFETs and sensor signal lines against inductive switching transients.
For engineers reviewing the P4SMA130AHE3/61 datasheet, P4SMA130AHE3/61 pinout, P4SMA130AHE3/61 application, or P4SMA130AHE3/61 equivalent, this page provides verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, clamping performance under standardized surge waveforms, and AEC-Q101 qualification status - all critical for automotive and industrial overvoltage protection design.
Technical Context
The P4SMA130AHE3/61 operates as a unidirectional avalanche-clamping device with glass-passivated junction, enabling fast response to transient events (<1 ns). Its 120 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance requires careful PCB copper pad layout (0.2" × 0.2") to sustain 400 W peak pulse power without exceeding 150 °C junction temperature.
It exhibits 0.107 %/°C temperature coefficient of VBR and 1.0 µA maximum reverse leakage at VWM (111 V), ensuring stable clamping across -65 °C to +150 °C operating range. The matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability and JESD22-B102 whisker resistance Class 2 standards.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off Voltage) | 111 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before significant leakage; defines safe operating margin below clamping threshold. |
| VBR (Breakdown Voltage) | 124–137 V at 1 mA - Confirmed avalanche onset range; ensures predictable turn-on during transients. |
| VC (Clamping Voltage) | 179 V at IPPM = 1.7 A (10/1000 µs) - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case surge; determines downstream component stress. |
| PPPM (Peak Pulse Power) | 400 W - Sustained energy absorption capability under standard lightning/surge waveform; derates above 25 °C ambient. |
| RθJA | 120 °C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to ambient air; mandates minimum 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads per terminal for rated power handling. |
| TJ max. | +150 °C - Absolute maximum junction temperature; limits sustained power dissipation and defines thermal design boundary. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive electronics per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD; enables use in engine control, ADAS, and body modules. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMA (DO-214AC), surface-mount, low-profile case with matte tin-plated leads. Cathode indicated by band on body; anode is unmarked end.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Transient current sink | Connected to protected line; conducts surge current to ground when voltage exceeds VBR. |
| Anode (unmarked end) | Reference node / ground return | Typically tied to system ground or low-impedance return path; completes clamping loop during overvoltage event. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables robust protection against IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 surges (1 kV/2 Ω) on 12 V/24 V automotive rails without external series impedance. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification (HE3 suffix) | Validates reliability for automotive under-hood and chassis applications where temperature cycling and long-term stability are mission-critical. |
| Glass passivated junction | Ensures consistent avalanche characteristics and low leakage (<1 µA at VWM) over lifetime and temperature extremes. |
| MSL Level 1 (260 °C peak reflow) | Supports standard lead-free SMT assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns or baking requirements. |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast-rising transients (e.g., ISO 7637-2 pulse 1/2a), improving protection fidelity for sensitive ICs. |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Signal Line Protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ130A-E3/61 | Same VWM (111 V), identical SMA package, but lower PPPM (400 W vs. P4SMA130AHE3/61's 400 W), same AEC-Q101 qualification (E3 suffix), no HE3 automotive traceability code. | Lacks explicit HE3 automotive traceability marking; suitable for commercial/industrial use but not certified for automotive production BOMs requiring full AEC-Q101 documentation. | Select SMAJ130A-E3/61 only if automotive qualification documentation (test reports, lot traceability) is not required. |
| 1.5SMC130A | Higher package thermal mass (SMC/DO-214AB), 125 °C/W RθJA, same VWM/VBR/VC specs, but not AEC-Q101 qualified; RoHS-compliant only. | Not approved for automotive applications; better thermal handling for high-repetition surges but lacks automotive reliability validation. | Choose 1.5SMC130A only for non-automotive systems needing higher thermal inertia and no AEC-Q101 compliance. |
Compared with SMAJ130A-E3/61 and 1.5SMC130A, the P4SMA130AHE3/61 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, HE3 traceability, and SMA footprint - making it the sole option for automotive designs requiring documented qualification and compact layout.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P4SMA130AHE3/61 under a 10/1000 µs surge?
The P4SMA130AHE3/61 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 179 V at 1.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under the standardized 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 1 in Vishay document 88367 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The P4SMA130AHE3/61 maintains this clamping performance across its specified operating temperature range.
Is P4SMA130AHE3/61 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the P4SMA130AHE3/61 is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by the "HE3" suffix and Vishay documentation (Rev. 09-Jan-2024, Doc. #88367). It undergoes stress testing including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased HAST to meet automotive reliability requirements. The P4SMA130AHE3/61 is approved for use in engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems.
What is the standoff voltage (VWM) rating of P4SMA130AHE3/61?
The P4SMA130AHE3/61 has a maximum working peak reverse voltage (VWM) of 111 V, meaning it remains in high-impedance state up to this voltage during normal operation. This value is derived from the 130 V nominal designation and aligns with Vishay's published electrical characteristics table. The P4SMA130AHE3/61 begins conducting significantly only above its 124–137 V breakdown range.
Does P4SMA130AHE3/61 have a bidirectional variant?
No, the P4SMA130AHE3/61 is strictly unidirectional, as indicated by the "A" suffix and cathode band marking. Bidirectional variants use the "CA" suffix (e.g., P4SMA130CA). The P4SMA130AHE3/61 conducts only in reverse bias during overvoltage events and must be oriented with cathode toward the protected line - unlike bidirectional types that protect both polarities without polarity dependence.
What package type does P4SMA130AHE3/61 use?
The P4SMA130AHE3/61 uses the SMA (DO-214AC) surface-mount package - a low-profile, molded plastic case with two gull-wing leads. Its dimensions are 4.93 mm × 3.99 mm × 2.29 mm (L × W × H), and it requires 0.2" × 0.2" (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal for full 400 W pulse power rating. The P4SMA130AHE3/61 is compatible with standard SMT reflow profiles, including lead-free peak temperatures up to 260 °C (MSL Level 1).
