Product details
Overview
P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in the SMB (DO-214AA) package, rated for 10 V standoff voltage (VWM), 14.5 V clamping voltage (VC) at 41.4 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 600 W peak pulse power (PPPM) with 10/1000 μs waveform. It protects signal lines and power rails in automotive sensor units, industrial I/O interfaces, and telecom line cards against ESD and inductive switching transients.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H datasheet, P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H pinout, P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H application, or P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional clamping capability, AEC-Q101 qualification, 100 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, and compatibility with automated SMT placement on standard PCB pad layouts.
Technical Context
This device operates as a voltage-clamped transient protector with symmetrical breakdown behavior in both polarities due to its bidirectional construction. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage (<10 μA at VWM) and fast response time (<1.0 ns), enabling effective suppression of sub-microsecond ESD events per IEC 61000-4-2.
The P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H is thermally optimized for surface-mount operation on 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads, delivering 600 W surge handling within its 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit and derating linearly above 25 °C ambient per Figure 2 of the datasheet.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off Voltage) | 10 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before clamping begins; defines operating margin below breakdown. |
| VBR (Breakdown Voltage) | 10.5 V min / 11.6 V max at 1 mA - Ensures reliable conduction onset during overvoltage events. |
| VC (Clamping Voltage) | 14.5 V at 41.4 A IPPM - Limits downstream voltage stress during 10/1000 μs transients. |
| PPPM (Peak Pulse Power) | 600 W - Sustains high-energy surges without failure under standardized 10/1000 μs waveform. |
| ID (Reverse Leakage) | 10 μA max at 10 V - Minimizes standby power loss and avoids false triggering in low-power circuits. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Enables use in under-hood automotive environments and industrial enclosures with elevated ambient temperatures. |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Standardized 2-pin surface-mount outline with 5.59 mm × 4.06 mm footprint and 2.20 mm height. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ10CA | Same SMB package, 600 W PPPM, but VWM = 10 V, VC = 17.0 V at 35.3 A - higher clamping voltage. | Less effective for 3.3 V/5 V rail protection where tighter clamping is required. | Select P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H when lower VC (14.5 V vs. 17.0 V) is critical for downstream IC survivability. |
| SMCJ10CA | Larger SMC (DO-214AB) package, 1500 W PPPM, same VWM/VC ratings - higher surge capacity but larger footprint. | Used where system-level surge immunity exceeds IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV/2 kA). | Choose P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H for space-constrained designs needing AEC-Q101 qualification and SMB footprint compatibility. |

FAQ
What does the "HE3_B/H" suffix indicate in P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H?
The "HE3" denotes RoHS-compliant and AEC-Q101 qualified construction; "_B" specifies the revision grade for P6SMB6.8CA–P6SMB220CA devices; "/H" indicates packaging in 7″ diameter plastic tape and reel with 750 units per reel. This full suffix confirms automotive-grade reliability, environmental compliance, and standardized SMT-ready delivery for the P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H.
Is P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H suitable for protecting 3.3 V logic interfaces?
Yes, the P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H is appropriate for 3.3 V logic protection when used with proper layout: its 14.5 V clamping voltage must be combined with series impedance (e.g., 10–100 Ω resistor) to limit current into the IC. The device itself does not clamp at 3.3 V-but its low VWM (10 V) and tight VC ensure downstream voltage remains within safe limits when correctly implemented in the P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H protection network.
How does P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H differ from unidirectional P6SMB10AHE3_B/H?
The P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H is bidirectional with symmetrical clamping in both polarities and no cathode band marking, whereas P6SMB10AHE3_B/H is unidirectional, features a cathode band, and conducts only in reverse bias. The "CA" suffix explicitly designates bidirectional function, making P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H ideal for AC-coupled or floating signal lines where polarity reversal may occur-unlike the unidirectional P6SMB10AHE3_B/H.
What is the thermal resistance of P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H, and how does it affect PCB layout?
The P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H has a typical RθJA of 100 °C/W when mounted on 0.2″ × 0.2″ (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal. To maintain junction temperature below 150 °C during repetitive surges, PCB layout must replicate this minimum pad area and avoid excessive trace length or narrow traces that increase thermal impedance. Thermal relief patterns should be minimized to preserve heat dissipation in the P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H mounting configuration.
Does P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H meet any specific industry standards for surge immunity?
The P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H is AEC-Q101 qualified and rated for 600 W peak pulse power with 10/1000 μs waveform per IEC 61000-4-5 Ed. 3 Annex A. While not certified to a full system-level standard itself, it is widely deployed in designs meeting ISO 16750-2 (automotive), IEC 61000-4-4/5 (industrial), and GR-1089-CORE (telecom) when applied per Vishay's recommended layout and coordination guidelines for the P6SMB10CAHE3_B/H.
