Product details
Overview
P6SMB200AHE3_B/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, rated for 200 V standoff voltage (VWM), 210 V minimum breakdown voltage (VBR), and 274 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 2.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM), designed to protect power rails and signal lines in automotive and industrial electronics against ESD and lightning-induced transients.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB200AHE3_B/I datasheet, P6SMB200AHE3_B/I pinout, P6SMB200AHE3_B/I application, or P6SMB200AHE3_B/I equivalent, this AEC-Q101 qualified TVS offers verified 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), low incremental surge resistance, and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity - critical for high-reliability board-level surge protection in harsh environments.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS operates by avalanche breakdown above its 200 V stand-off threshold, clamping transient voltages to ≤274 V within nanoseconds while dissipating up to 600 W of pulse energy. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage (<1.0 μA at VWM) and long-term reliability under repetitive surge stress.
The device is optimized for automated SMT assembly on standard PCB pads (0.2" × 0.2" copper), with thermal resistance RθJA = 100 °C/W and RθJL = 20 °C/W. It meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and supports operation from −65 °C to +150 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off) | 200 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins |
| VBR (Breakdown) | 190–210 V at 1.0 mA - Confirmed avalanche initiation range under standardized test current |
| VC (Clamping) | 274 V at IPPM = 2.2 A - Measured peak voltage during 10/1000 μs transient, defining protection window |
| PPPM | 600 W - Peak pulse power handling capability per 10/1000 μs waveform, derated above 25 °C |
| ID (Leakage) | ≤1.0 μA at 200 V - Low reverse leakage preserves system efficiency and signal integrity |
| TJ max. | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature enabling use in under-hood automotive and industrial enclosures |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Standardized surface-mount outline with cathode band marking, compatible with IPC-7351B footprint |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads; cathode indicated by band on body; terminals solderable per J-STD-002 and JESD22-B102.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to protected circuit ground or low-side return path in unidirectional configuration |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and surge endurance per JEDEC standards |
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Enables robust protection against IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV) surges without derating in typical PCB layouts |
| Glass passivated junction | Ensures stable VBR over lifetime and immunity to humidity-induced parameter drift |
| MSL Level 1 (260 °C peak) | Supports lead-free reflow without preconditioning; eliminates moisture-related popcorning risk |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.37) | Minimizes overvoltage stress on downstream ICs during transient events |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 24 V supply lines in engine control units (ECUs) and body control modules (BCMs) against load dump and ISO 7637-2 pulses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between power input and ground, clamping transients within <1 ns to prevent MOSFET gate oxide damage. Use Value: Withstands 600 W surges and operates up to +150 °C, meeting AEC-Q101 requirements for under-hood deployment. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding analog sensor outputs (e.g., pressure, temperature) connected to microcontrollers in factory automation systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Placed across sensor output and ground to shunt ESD (IEC 61000-4-2 ±8 kV contact) and fast transients before they reach ADC inputs. Use Value: Sub-1.0 μA leakage at 200 V prevents DC offset errors; low VC limits voltage excursion to safe levels for 3.3 V or 5 V logic interfaces. |
| Telecom DC Power Input Protection | Motor Drive Gate Driver Protection |
Use Scenario: Securing −48 V telecom rectifier outputs against lightning-induced surges on central office equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Mounted at front-end input stage to clamp common-mode transients before DC/DC converters and PMICs. Use Value: 274 V clamping voltage ensures downstream 60 V-rated components remain within safe operating area during 10/1000 μs surges. |
Use Scenario: Shielding high-side and low-side gate drivers in BLDC motor inverters from shoot-through-inducing voltage spikes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Connected between gate and source terminals to suppress Miller-induced dv/dt spikes during switching transitions. Use Value: Fast response time and low incremental resistance limit gate overvoltage to <300 V, preventing unintended IGBT/MOSFET turn-on. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ200A-E3/5B | Same VWM (200 V), but lower PPPM (400 W); SMB package identical; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Suitable for commercial-grade industrial controls where automotive qualification is not required | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs AEC-Q101 compliance and 600 W surge margin is non-critical |
| 1.5SMC200A | Same electrical specs (VWM/VBR/VC), but SMC (DO-214AB) package - 2.5 mm wider, incompatible with SMB footprints | Requires PCB layout change; used where higher thermal mass or legacy SMC placement exists | Choose only if existing design uses SMC footprint and thermal performance demands larger case size |
Compared with SMAJ200A-E3/5B and 1.5SMC200A, P6SMB200AHE3_B/I uniquely delivers AEC-Q101 qualification in the compact SMB outline with full 600 W rating - enabling drop-in replacement in automotive designs without sacrificing surge margin or requiring layout revision.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P6SMB200AHE3_B/I at its rated peak pulse current?
The P6SMB200AHE3_B/I has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 274 V at 2.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM), measured under the standard 10/1000 μs waveform. This value defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events and is confirmed in the Vishay datasheet Document Number 88370, page 2.
Is P6SMB200AHE3_B/I qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, P6SMB200AHE3_B/I is AEC-Q101 qualified, as indicated by the "HE3_B" suffix per Vishay's ordering information (Document 88370, page 3). It undergoes rigorous stress testing including temperature cycling, highly accelerated life testing (HALT), and surge endurance to meet automotive reliability requirements.
What does the "_B/I" suffix mean in P6SMB200AHE3_B/I?
The "_B" denotes AEC-Q101 qualification for the P6SMB200AHE3_B/I series (applicable to 6.8 V–220 V variants), while "/I" specifies packaging in 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel with 3200 units per reel. This format aligns with Vishay's standard ordering nomenclature in Document 88370, page 3.
Can P6SMB200AHE3_B/I be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, P6SMB200AHE3_B/I is unidirectional only. Bidirectional variants in the P6SMB family use the "CA" suffix (e.g., P6SMB200CA). The "A" in P6SMB200AHE3_B/I explicitly indicates unidirectional polarity, with cathode marked by a band on the SMB package body.
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for P6SMB200AHE3_B/I?
The maximum operating junction temperature (TJ max.) for P6SMB200AHE3_B/I is +150 °C, as specified in the "Maximum Ratings" table (Document 88370, page 1). This enables reliable operation in under-hood automotive environments and high-temperature industrial enclosures without thermal derating below rated power.
