Product details
Overview
P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in the P6SMB series, designed for clamping voltage transients on signal or power lines. It features a 130 V standoff voltage (VWM), 179 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 3.4 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 600 W peak pulse power (PPPM) with 10/1000 μs waveform - deployed in automotive sensor interfaces, industrial I/O protection, and telecom line surge suppression.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H datasheet, P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H pinout, P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H application, or P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H equivalent, key selection criteria include bidirectional clamping capability, AEC-Q101 qualification, SMB (DO-214AA) package compatibility, and thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) for board-level transient immunity design.
Technical Context
This bidirectional TVS operates symmetrically across both polarities, delivering consistent clamping performance without polarity dependency. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable breakdown behavior under repetitive surge stress, and it meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with 260 °C lead-free reflow compatibility.
The device is rated for -65 °C to +150 °C operating junction temperature, supports 0.01 % duty cycle repetitive surges, and exhibits low incremental surge resistance - critical for fast energy diversion during ESD or lightning-induced transients in 12 V/24 V automotive and industrial systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off Voltage) | 111 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before clamping initiates; defines safe operating margin below system rail. |
| VBR (Breakdown Voltage) | 124–137 V at 1 mA - Confirmed avalanche onset range; ensures predictable turn-on during overvoltage events. |
| VC (Clamping Voltage) | 179 V at IPPM = 3.4 A - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during 10/1000 μs surge; determines downstream component stress. |
| PPPM (Peak Pulse Power) | 600 W - Sustained transient energy handling capacity under standardized waveform; validates robustness against IEC 61000-4-5 surges. |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads; informs derating requirements above 25 °C ambient. |
| TJ max. | +150 °C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; enables operation in under-hood automotive environments. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per AEC specification. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), surface-mount, low-profile plastic case with matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102. No polarity marking for bidirectional configuration.

Applications
| Automotive Sensor Protection | Industrial PLC I/O Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting CAN/LIN bus transceivers and analog sensor inputs (e.g., pressure, temperature) from load dump and ISO 7637-2 pulses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional voltage clamp placed directly at connector interface to limit transient amplitude before reaching signal conditioning ICs. Use Value: Prevents latch-up or permanent damage to 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers and ADCs exposed to ±100 V transients in 12 V vehicle systems. |
Use Scenario: Shielding digital input/output channels on programmable logic controllers from induced surges due to relay switching or nearby motor drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-response shunt element across 24 V DC input terminals to clamp spikes before optocoupler or level-shifter stages. Use Value: Maintains functional safety integrity by limiting transient voltage to <180 V, well below 250 V isolation barrier ratings of industrial isolators. |
| Telecom Line Interface | Consumer Power Adapter EMI Filtering |
Use Scenario: Surge suppression on Ethernet PHY magnetics secondary side or RS-485 differential pairs in network equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Symmetric clamping device across differential lines to suppress common-mode transients while preserving signal integrity. Use Value: Enables compliance with IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) and IEC 61000-4-5 (surge) without adding series impedance or signal distortion. |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side transient suppression in AC/DC adapters protecting USB-C PD controllers and voltage supervisors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (<100 pF) bidirectional clamp across 5–20 V output rails to absorb coupling noise from primary-side switching. Use Value: Reduces need for additional filtering components while meeting UL 62368-1 transient immunity requirements for end-user power supplies. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ130CA | Same VWM (111 V), lower PPPM (400 W), SMA package (larger RθJA = 150 °C/W) | Limited to lower-energy transients; less suitable for automotive load dump where 600 W margin is required. | Select when cost or legacy PCB footprint constrains use of SMB, and surge energy remains ≤400 W. |
| 1.5KE130CA | Higher power (1500 W), axial-leaded DO-201 package, slower response due to higher parasitic inductance | Not SMT-compatible; unsuitable for high-density boards or automated assembly; better for chassis-level primary protection. | Choose only for through-hole designs requiring higher single-pulse energy absorption outside signal path constraints. |
Compared with SMAJ130CA and 1.5KE130CA, P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H delivers optimal balance of 600 W surge rating, SMB footprint, AEC-Q101 qualification, and low-profile SMT manufacturability - making it the preferred choice for space-constrained, automotive-grade, and high-reliability industrial PCBs.

FAQ
What does the "CA" suffix indicate in P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H?
The "CA" suffix denotes a bidirectional configuration: the device provides symmetrical clamping for both positive and negative voltage transients without polarity dependence. This makes P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H ideal for AC-coupled lines, differential buses like RS-485, or floating sensor outputs where voltage polarity reversal is possible during fault conditions.
Is P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H suitable for automotive applications?
Yes - P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H carries AEC-Q101 qualification (indicated by the "HE3_B" suffix), confirming validation for automotive use including temperature cycling, highly accelerated life testing, and ESD robustness. It is commonly deployed in body electronics, ADAS sensor interfaces, and infotainment power rails where load dump and jump-start transients occur.
How does the SMB (DO-214AA) package of P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H compare to SMA or SMC alternatives?
The SMB package offers a 30 % smaller footprint than SMC and 25 % smaller than SMA while maintaining 600 W PPPM rating. Its 100 °C/W RθJA enables higher power density than SMAJ-series devices, and its MSL Level 1 rating ensures compatibility with standard lead-free reflow profiles - unlike larger packages that may require special thermal profiling.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H under surge conditions?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H is 179 V at 3.4 A peak pulse current (IPPM), measured with a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during worst-case surge events and is critical for ensuring downstream ICs remain within absolute maximum ratings.
Does P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H require external biasing or control circuitry?
No - P6SMB130CAHE3_B/H is a passive, two-terminal device that operates autonomously. It remains high-impedance below VWM (111 V), then avalanches sharply to clamp transients above VBR (124–137 V). No bias voltage, enable signal, or driver circuitry is needed, simplifying layout and reducing BOM count in protection networks.
