Product details
Overview
P6SMB130AHE3_A/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, rated for 130 V breakdown voltage (VBR = 124–137 V at IT = 1.0 mA), 179 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 3.4 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs waveform). It protects MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor signal lines against inductive switching transients and lightning surges in industrial and automotive electronics.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB130AHE3_A/I datasheet, P6SMB130AHE3_A/I pinout, P6SMB130AHE3_A/I application, or P6SMB130AHE3_A/I equivalent, this AEC-Q101 qualified, RoHS-compliant TVS offers verified clamping performance, low incremental surge resistance, and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity - critical for high-reliability board-level ESD and surge protection design.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS operates with a reverse stand-off voltage (VWM) of 111 V, ensuring reliable blocking below transient threshold while maintaining <1.0 µA reverse leakage at rated VWM. Its glass-passivated junction enables fast response time (<1 ns) and stable clamping under repetitive 0.01% duty-cycle surges.
Thermal design is supported by RθJA = 100 °C/W (typ.) and RθJL = 20 °C/W (typ.), with operation validated from –65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. The device meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and is qualified per AEC-Q101 for automotive under-hood and powertrain applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 124 V / 137 V at IT = 1.0 mA - defines precise voltage threshold where avalanche conduction begins |
| VWM | 111 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before significant leakage |
| VC @ IPPM | 179 V at 3.4 A - clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge, limiting downstream stress |
| PPPM | 600 W - peak transient power handling capability under standardized surge waveform |
| IPPM | 3.4 A - maximum non-repetitive peak pulse current the device safely clamps |

|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting 12 V/24 V power rails in engine control units (ECUs) from load dump and inductive kickback. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between rail and ground to clamp transients above 111 V while remaining inert during normal operation.

Use Scenario: Shielding analog output lines (e.g., 4–20 mA current loops) in factory automation sensors from ESD and cable discharge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TVS connected between signal line and ground to suppress sub-100 ns transients before they reach precision ADC front-ends. Use Value: Clamps fast transients with <1 ns response, preserving signal integrity and avoiding false triggers in PLC input stages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ130A-E3/5B | Same VBR range (124–137 V), but SMA package (smaller footprint, higher RθJA = 140 °C/W) | Lower power density; suitable only for <400 W surges or forced-air-cooled designs | Select when board space is constrained and thermal budget allows reduced surge margin |
| 1.5KE130A | Through-hole DO-201 package; identical electrical specs but larger size and manual assembly requirement | Not suitable for automated SMT lines; used in legacy industrial controls or repair scenarios | Choose only for through-hole compatibility or when rework accessibility outweighs SMT efficiency |
Compared with SMAJ130A-E3/5B and 1.5KE130A, P6SMB130AHE3_A/I delivers optimal balance of 600 W surge capability, AEC-Q101 qualification, and SMB footprint - making it the preferred choice for new automotive and industrial SMT designs requiring production scalability and long-term supply assurance.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P6SMB130AHE3_A/I at its rated peak pulse current?
The P6SMB130AHE3_A/I has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 179 V at its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 3.4 A under a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per standard test conditions (TA = 25 °C, mounted on 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads) and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during surge events. The P6SMB130AHE3_A/I maintains this clamping performance consistently due to its glass-passivated junction and low incremental surge resistance.
Is P6SMB130AHE3_A/I qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, P6SMB130AHE3_A/I is AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by its "HE3" suffix and documentation in Vishay's P6SMB series datasheet (Rev. 09-Jan-2024, Doc. #88370). This qualification covers stress tests including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and ESD, validating its suitability for automotive powertrain, body electronics, and ADAS systems. The P6SMB130AHE3_A/I is specifically rated for junction temperatures up to +150 °C and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements.
What does the "_A/I" suffix in P6SMB130AHE3_A/I indicate?
The "_A/I" suffix in P6SMB130AHE3_A/I denotes packaging configuration: "A" indicates the base part is unidirectional, and "I" specifies 13-inch diameter plastic tape-and-reel delivery (3200 units per reel), per Vishay's ordering information table. This format supports high-speed SMT placement and is distinct from the "H" (7-inch reel, 750 units) variant. The P6SMB130AHE3_A/I also carries RoHS compliance and AEC-Q101 qualification, as defined by the "HE3" prefix.
How does P6SMB130AHE3_A/I compare to bidirectional TVS diodes like P6SMB130CA?
P6SMB130AHE3_A/I is unidirectional and features a cathode band for polarity-sensitive placement, whereas P6SMB130CA is bidirectional with no polarity marking and symmetric clamping in both directions. The P6SMB130AHE3_A/I has a higher VWM (111 V vs. 111 V for unidirectional mode only) and is optimized for DC rail protection where polarity is fixed. Bidirectional variants are reserved for AC-coupled or floating signal lines - the P6SMB130AHE3_A/I is not interchangeable with P6SMB130CA without circuit redesign.
What thermal considerations apply when using P6SMB130AHE3_A/I in high-temperature environments?
P6SMB130AHE3_A/I has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150 °C and a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 100 °C/W when mounted on minimum recommended 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads. In ambient temperatures above 85 °C, derating per Figure 2 of the datasheet is required: for example, at TA = 100 °C, peak pulse power must be reduced to ~420 W. Proper copper pour and thermal vias are essential to sustain full 600 W capability. The P6SMB130AHE3_A/I remains fully functional within its specified TJ range.
