Product details
Overview
P6SMB130AHM3_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 P6SMB130AHM3_A/I datasheet, P6SMB130AHM3_A/I pinout, P6SMB130AHM3_A/I application, or P6SMB130AHM3_A/I equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), polarity marking convention, and real-world clamping performance under standardized surge conditions.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode with glass-passivated junction, optimized for fast response (<1 ns) and low incremental surge resistance to clamp transient overvoltages before downstream components are damaged. Its 130 V standoff voltage (VWM = 111 V) and 179 V clamping voltage define a well-controlled protection window for 120 V AC-derived DC rails or high-voltage sensor interfaces.
The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I uses an SMB (DO-214AA) package with matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102, rated for MSL level 1 (peak reflow 260 °C), and qualified to AEC-Q101 for automotive applications. Its thermal resistance (RθJL = 20 °C/W) enables effective heat transfer to PCB copper pads during repetitive surge events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 124 V / 137 V at 1.0 mA test current - defines precise avalanche initiation threshold for reliable overvoltage triggering |
| VWM | 111 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage; ensures no conduction during normal 120 V-derived system operation |
| VC @ IPPM | 179 V at 3.4 A (10/1000 μs) - clamping voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case surge event |
| PPPM | 600 W - peak transient power handling capability under standard 10/1000 μs waveform at 0.01% duty cycle |
| IFSM | 100 A - non-repetitive forward surge rating (8.3 ms half-sine), supports robustness against accidental polarity reversal |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads; informs derating above 25 °C ambient |
| Junction Temp | -65 °C to +150 °C - operational and storage temperature range compatible with under-hood automotive and industrial environments |

Use Value: 130 V VBR aligns with 120 V AC-derived DC bus; 179 V clamping prevents MOSFET avalanche failure during rapid turn-off. |
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 lower PPPM = 400 W and higher VC = 219 V at 2.3 A; SMA package (smaller footprint, higher RθJA = 150 °C/W) | Less suitable for high-energy surges like ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a; better for space-constrained consumer designs with lower surge exposure | Select SMAJ130A-E3/5B only if board area is critical and surge energy remains below 400 W capability. |
| 1.5SMC130A | Same VBR/VC specs, but SMC (DO-214AB) package - larger footprint, lower RθJA = 60 °C/W, higher IPPM = 5.2 A, same PPPM = 600 W | Better thermal performance for high-duty-cycle or repeated surge environments; requires more PCB area | Choose 1.5SMC130A where sustained surge repetition or elevated ambient temperatures demand superior thermal dissipation. |
Compared with SMAJ130A-E3/5B, P6SMB130AHM3_A/I delivers 50% higher surge power margin and tighter clamping; versus 1.5SMC130A, it trades thermal headroom for compact SMB footprint-ideal for AEC-Q101-compliant automotive modules with strict size constraints.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for P6SMB130AHM3_A/I?
The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I has a specified breakdown voltage range of 124 V to 137 V at 1.0 mA test current, corresponding to ±5% tolerance around the nominal 130 V rating. This tight VBR window ensures predictable clamping onset across production lots and temperature extremes, critical for protecting sensitive 120 V-derived power rails. The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I maintains this specification per Vishay Document 88370, Rev. 09-Jan-2024.
Is P6SMB130AHM3_A/I suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, P6SMB130AHM3_A/I is AEC-Q101 qualified (suffix HM3 denotes halogen-free and automotive-grade qualification), tested for temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock per automotive reliability standards. Its -65 °C to +150 °C operating range, MSL Level 1 reflow compatibility, and validated surge performance make it appropriate for under-hood and cabin ECU protection. The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I meets these requirements as documented in Vishay's official P6SMB series datasheet.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of P6SMB130AHM3_A/I under surge conditions?
The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I exhibits a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 179 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 3.4 A using the standard 10/1000 μs waveform. This value represents the upper voltage limit imposed on the protected circuit during worst-case transient events and is measured per JEDEC test conditions. The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I achieves this clamping performance while maintaining low incremental surge resistance, as confirmed in Table 1 of Vishay Document 88370.
How does the SMB package of P6SMB130AHM3_A/I compare thermally to larger packages?
The SMB (DO-214AA) package of P6SMB130AHM3_A/I has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 100 °C/W when mounted on 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads-higher than SMC (60 °C/W) but lower than SMA (150 °C/W). This balance allows adequate thermal performance in space-constrained automotive modules while retaining sufficient surge energy handling. The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I's RθJA is validated per Vishay's thermal characterization curves in Document 88370, Figure 5.
Does P6SMB130AHM3_A/I have polarity marking, and how is it oriented in-circuit?
Yes, P6SMB130AHM3_A/I is unidirectional and features a cathode band marking on the SMB package body. During PCB layout, the banded end must connect to the line being protected (e.g., 12 V rail), while the unbanded (anode) end connects to ground. This orientation ensures proper avalanche conduction during positive transients. The P6SMB130AHM3_A/I polarity convention follows industry-standard DO-214AA diode marking and is illustrated in the mechanical drawings of Vishay Document 88370, Page 5.
