Product details
Overview
P6SMB130AHM3/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 ESD in industrial and automotive electronics.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB130AHM3/I datasheet, P6SMB130AHM3/I pinout, P6SMB130AHM3/I application, or P6SMB130AHM3/I equivalent, this device delivers verified AEC-Q101 qualification (HM3 suffix), halogen-free RoHS compliance, MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity, and stable clamping performance under repetitive surge conditions up to 0.01% duty cycle.
Technical Context
This TVS operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode with cathode-band polarity marking, designed for reverse-biased transient suppression across DC power rails and signal paths. Its glass-passivated junction ensures low leakage (<1.0 μA at VWM = 111 V) and fast response time (<1.0 ns), while thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) supports operation up to TJ = +150 °C on standard 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads.
The device meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and J-STD-002 solderability standards, with matte tin-plated leads compatible with lead-free reflow profiles peaking at 260 °C. Its 600 W PPPM rating is defined per REA-standard 10/1000 μs waveform, derated linearly above TA = 25 °C per Fig. 2 of the datasheet.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 124 V / 137 V at IT = 1.0 mA - defines reliable avalanche initiation threshold for overvoltage protection |
| VWM | 111 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before significant leakage begins |
| VC @ IPPM | 179 V at IPPM = 3.4 A - clamped voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case 10/1000 μs surge |
| PPPM | 600 W - peak transient energy absorption capability without failure under standardized surge waveform |
| IFSM | 100 A - single half-sine surge current rating (8.3 ms), relevant for AC line fault protection |
| TJ max | +150 °C - maximum junction temperature enabling use in under-hood automotive and high-ambient industrial environments |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - industry-standard 2-pin surface-mount outline with 0.220" × 0.130" footprint and 0.086" 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ130A-E3/5B | Same VBR range (124–137 V), but SMA package (smaller footprint, higher RθJA = 140 °C/W), non-AEC-Q101 | Limited to commercial-temperature industrial use; not qualified for automotive under-hood placement | Select when board space is constrained and AEC-Q101 is not required; verify thermal margin at full 600 W pulse. |
| 1.5SMC130AHE3_A/H | Same electrical specs, but SMC (DO-214AB) package (larger, 0.275" × 0.165"), AEC-Q101 qualified, same HM3 suffix logic | Higher power handling margin due to lower RθJA (60 °C/W); suited for high-reliability 24 V truck systems | Choose when higher surge repetition rate or extended thermal headroom is needed; requires PCB layout change. |
Compared with P6SMB130AHM3/I, SMAJ130A-E3/5B offers smaller size but reduced thermal robustness and no automotive qualification, while 1.5SMC130AHE3_A/H provides superior thermal performance and identical qualification at the cost of larger board area and different pad layout.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P6SMB130AHM3/I at its rated peak pulse current?
The P6SMB130AHM3/I has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 179 V at its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 3.4 A, measured under the standard 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during surge events. The P6SMB130AHM3/I maintains this clamping performance with low incremental surge resistance, ensuring consistent protection behavior.
Is P6SMB130AHM3/I suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, P6SMB130AHM3/I is AEC-Q101 qualified (indicated by the HM3 suffix), making it suitable for automotive applications including engine control units, body electronics, and infotainment power supplies. It undergoes stress testing for temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD per the AEC-Q101 standard. The P6SMB130AHM3/I also meets MSL Level 1 and lead-free reflow requirements, supporting automotive manufacturing processes.
What does the "HM3" suffix signify in P6SMB130AHM3/I?
The "HM3" suffix in P6SMB130AHM3/I indicates halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction with AEC-Q101 qualification. "H" denotes halogen-free molding compound, "M3" confirms RoHS compliance and JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and the qualification extends to the full P6SMB family for voltages up to 220 V (per note on page 3 of document 88370). The P6SMB130AHM3/I is therefore certified for high-reliability automotive deployment.
How does P6SMB130AHM3/I compare to bidirectional TVS diodes in the same series?
P6SMB130AHM3/I is unidirectional and intended for DC rail protection where polarity is fixed; it features a cathode band for orientation. Bidirectional variants (e.g., P6SMB130CA) lack polarity marking and suppress transients in both directions, making them suitable for AC lines or differential signals. The P6SMB130AHM3/I offers tighter leakage control (<1.0 μA at 111 V) versus bidirectional types, which exhibit symmetric leakage in both directions and slightly higher VBR tolerance.
What is the thermal resistance of P6SMB130AHM3/I, and how does it affect layout?
The P6SMB130AHM3/I has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 100 °C/W when mounted on 0.2" × 0.2" (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal. This value assumes minimum recommended pad layout per the datasheet mechanical drawing. To maintain safe junction temperatures during repetitive surges, designers must ensure adequate copper area and avoid excessive trace length; the P6SMB130AHM3/I's RθJA directly determines allowable pulse duty cycle at elevated ambient temperatures.
