Product details
Overview
P6SMB75AHM3_A/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for clamping voltage transients on power and signal lines. It features a 71.3 V minimum breakdown voltage (VBR), 64.1 V standoff voltage (VWM), 103 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 5.8 A peak pulse current, and 600 W peak pulse power rating with 10/1000 μs waveform - used in automotive power rail protection and industrial sensor interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB75AHM3_A/H datasheet, P6SMB75AHM3_A/H pinout, P6SMB75AHM3_A/H application, or P6SMB75AHM3_A/H equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), junction temperature range (–65 to +150 °C), and real-world clamping performance data under standardized surge conditions.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a unidirectional clamping device with cathode-band polarity marking, optimized for fast transient suppression in DC power rails and low-speed signal paths. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage (<1.0 μA at VWM) and low incremental surge resistance, enabling consistent clamping across repetitive 10/1000 μs pulses at 0.01% duty cycle.
The device meets J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 (peak reflow ≤ 260 °C), uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102, and is halogen-free and RoHS-compliant per Vishay HM3 suffix designation. It is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications, with ordering code suffix _HM3_A/H confirming halogen-free, AEC-Q101-compliant, and 7" tape-and-reel packaging.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 64.1 V - Maximum reverse operating voltage before significant conduction; defines safe DC working limit for protected line. |
| VBR (min) | 71.3 V at 1.0 mA test current - Ensures reliable triggering above normal operating voltage without false clamping. |
| VC | 103 V at 5.8 A IPPM - Clamped voltage seen by downstream circuit during 10/1000 μs surge; determines IC survivability margin. |
| PPPM | 600 W - Peak transient energy absorption capability with standardized 10/1000 μs 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; supports operation in under-hood automotive environments. |
| ID (max) | 1.0 μA at VWM - Reverse leakage current level; ensures minimal standby power loss and no interference with high-impedance sensing nodes. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), surface-mount, low-profile plastic case with matte tin-plated leads. Cathode identified by band marking on body end.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry terminal in forward bias; connected to lower-potential side of protected line. | Provides path for surge current to ground when cathode is held at higher potential; must be routed to system ground plane with low-inductance trace. |
| Cathode | Current exit terminal in forward bias; marked with band; connected to higher-potential side (e.g., VCC, signal line). | Defines clamping reference point; reverse-biased during normal operation; conducts only during overvoltage events to shunt energy away from load. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing - enables use in engine control units and ADAS power supplies. |
| 600 W peak pulse power | Withstands IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV) surges on 12 V/24 V systems without degradation when mounted per recommended pad layout. |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.45) | Minimizes overvoltage stress on protected MOSFETs or microcontrollers - critical for 3.3 V/5 V logic interfacing with 12 V supply domains. |
| MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity | Allows direct placement into reflow ovens without baking; eliminates production delays and moisture-related popcorning failures. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS-compliant (HM3) | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC-1752A material declarations - required for global OEM automotive BOM compliance. |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |

Use Scenario: Overvoltage suppression on secondary-side 5 V/9 V/12 V outputs of USB-C PD adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side TVS placed after DC-DC regulator to prevent fault propagation to connected devices. Use Value: Enables compact design via SMB footprint and eliminates need for external heatsinking due to 100 °C/W RθJA on standard pads. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ75A-E3/52 | Same VWM (64.1 V), identical SMB package, but commercial-grade (non-AEC-Q101) and RoHS-compliant E3 suffix (not halogen-free). | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for industrial/commercial power supplies where AEC-Q101 is not mandated. | Select SMAJ75A-E3/52 if cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and halogen-free requirements. |
| 1.5SMC75A | Higher RθJA (125 °C/W), same VWM/VC, but larger SMC (DO-214AB) package - 2.5 mm wider and 0.5 mm taller than SMB. | Requires PCB layout revision; offers higher thermal mass but reduces board density - used where surge repetition rate exceeds P6SMB75AHM3_A/H derating limits. | Choose 1.5SMC75A only when sustained surge duty cycles demand extra thermal margin and board space permits larger footprint. |
Compared with SMAJ75A-E3/52, P6SMB75AHM3_A/H adds AEC-Q101 qualification and halogen-free construction for automotive deployment; versus 1.5SMC75A, it delivers identical clamping performance in a 25% smaller SMB footprint - critical for space-constrained ADAS camera modules and telematics units.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P6SMB75AHM3_A/H at its rated peak pulse current?
The P6SMB75AHM3_A/H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 103 V at 5.8 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under the standard 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 1 in Vishay document 88370 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The P6SMB75AHM3_A/H maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range (–65 to +150 °C) when mounted per recommended pad layout.
Is P6SMB75AHM3_A/H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, P6SMB75AHM3_A/H is AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by the HM3 suffix and Vishay's ordering information table (Document 88370, page 3). It undergoes stress testing including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and ESD per AEC-Q101 Rev D. The "_A/H" suffix denotes 7" tape-and-reel packaging with AEC-Q101 compliance, making P6SMB75AHM3_A/H suitable for engine control, body electronics, and ADAS power systems.
What does the "HM3" suffix mean in P6SMB75AHM3_A/H?
The "HM3" suffix in P6SMB75AHM3_A/H indicates halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction meeting IPC-1752A material declaration standards, plus AEC-Q101 qualification. It distinguishes the part from commercial-grade variants (e.g., E3 or M3) and confirms compliance with automotive environmental requirements. The "_A/H" further specifies revision A and 7" tape-and-reel packaging - all documented in Vishay's P6SMB Series datasheet (88370, page 3).
How does P6SMB75AHM3_A/H compare to P6SMB75A in terms of reliability and packaging?
P6SMB75AHM3_A/H differs from generic P6SMB75A by incorporating AEC-Q101 qualification, halogen-free molding compound, and controlled moisture sensitivity (MSL Level 1). While both share identical electrical specs (VWM = 64.1 V, VC = 103 V), only P6SMB75AHM3_A/H carries the HM3 suffix and _A/H packaging code - ensuring traceable, automotive-grade supply chain integrity. P6SMB75AHM3_A/H is not a drop-in replacement for non-HM3 variants in certified automotive designs.
What is the thermal resistance of P6SMB75AHM3_A/H, and how does it affect layout?
P6SMB75AHM3_A/H 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, as specified in Vishay's thermal characteristics table (page 3, Document 88370). This value requires PCB designers to allocate adequate copper area and avoid thermal bottlenecks - especially in high-ambient environments like automotive cabins - to maintain junction temperature below +150 °C during repetitive surge events.
