Product details
Overview
P6SMB7.5AT3 from ON Semiconductor is a unidirectional 600 W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for parallel overvoltage protection of DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 7.5 V nominal Zener breakdown voltage, 10.5 V maximum clamping voltage at 10 A peak pulse current, and <1 ns response time-used in automotive power supply input stages, industrial PLC I/O modules, and medical equipment surge protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB7.5AT3 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include working peak reverse voltage (VRWM = 6.4 V), clamping performance under 10 A surge, UL 497B certification for isolated loop protection, low leakage (<500 µA @ VRWM), and SMB package thermal reliability up to +150°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The P6SMB7.5AT3 operates as a unidirectional Zener-based TVS, conducting only during positive transients relative to its cathode. Its clamping action begins at VRWM = 6.4 V and fully engages at VBR = 7.13–7.88 V (tested at IT = 10 mA), limiting induced surges to ≤10.5 V at IPP = 10 A with <1 ns turn-on latency.
Thermally, it delivers 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs waveform) with junction-to-lead thermal resistance of 40°C/W and derates linearly above 75°C ambient. Its SURMETIC® SMB package supports 260°C soldering for 10 s and meets Class 3 ESD immunity (>16 kV HBM).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power | 600 W @ 10/1000 µs waveform - sustains single high-energy surges without failure |

| Zener Breakdown Voltage | 7.13–7.88 V @ 10 mA - defines precise conduction onset under controlled test conditions |
| Max Clamping Voltage | 10.5 V @ 10 A IPP - guarantees protected circuit sees no more than this voltage during surge |
| Leakage Current | <500 µA @ 6.4 V - ensures minimal standby power loss in always-on systems |
| Response Time | <1 ns - enables suppression of fast-rising ESD and lightning-induced transients |

| Cathode | Transient voltage sensing and clamping node | Connected to protected line (e.g., 5 V rail); conducts when voltage exceeds VRWM |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unidirectional clamping architecture | Protects only positive-going transients on DC rails-no reverse conduction risk during normal operation |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.35) | Minimizes overvoltage stress on downstream ICs compared to higher-ratio TVS devices |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ7.0A | Lower VRWM (6.0 V), higher IPP (11.2 A), same SMB package | Better suited for 5 V systems with tighter voltage margins | Select when VRWM must be ≤6.0 V and higher surge margin is required |
| 1.5SMC7.5A | Larger SMC package (7.1 mm × 6.2 mm), identical electrical specs | Higher thermal mass but requires larger PCB footprint | Choose for higher board-level thermal dissipation needs or legacy SMC layout compatibility |
Compared with P6SMB7.5AT3, SMBJ7.0A offers tighter voltage coordination for 5 V rails but reduces design margin against normal operating overshoot; 1.5SMC7.5A provides identical clamping performance with greater thermal endurance at the cost of PCB area and assembly compatibility.

FAQ
What is the working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) of the P6SMB7.5AT3?
The P6SMB7.5AT3 has a working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) of 6.4 V, meaning it remains non-conductive below this DC or continuous peak voltage level and begins clamping only when transients exceed this threshold. This value ensures compatibility with standard 5 V systems while maintaining sufficient margin against normal operating ripple. The P6SMB7.5AT3 maintains low leakage (<500 µA) at VRWM, minimizing standby power impact.
How does the clamping voltage of the P6SMB7.5AT3 compare to its breakdown voltage?
The P6SMB7.5AT3 exhibits a clamping voltage (VC) of 10.5 V at 10 A peak pulse current, while its Zener breakdown voltage (VBR) ranges from 7.13 V to 7.88 V at 10 mA test current. This results in a clamping ratio of approximately 1.35, indicating tight voltage control during surge events. The P6SMB7.5AT3 achieves this with low dynamic impedance, ensuring predictable protection without excessive overvoltage stress on downstream components.
Is the P6SMB7.5AT3 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the P6SMB7.5AT3 is RoHS compliant and offered in a Pb-free SURMETIC® package, indicated by the "G" suffix in the full ordering code P6SMB7.5AT3G. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements and supports standard reflow profiles, including peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. The P6SMB7.5AT3 maintains full electrical specifications in both standard and Pb-free configurations.
Does the P6SMB7.5AT3 have UL recognition, and for what standard?
Yes, the P6SMB7.5AT3 carries UL 497B recognition under file #E210057, specifically certified for isolated loop circuit protection. This validation covers performance in telecom, industrial control, and medical applications requiring reinforced insulation barriers. The P6SMB7.5AT3 passed multiple UL tests including strike voltage breakdown, endurance conditioning, dielectric withstand, and discharge verification-going beyond basic flammability compliance.
What is the maximum peak pulse current (IPP) rating for the P6SMB7.5AT3?
The P6SMB7.5AT3 is rated for a maximum peak pulse current (IPP) of 10 A under the standard 10/1000 µs double-exponential waveform. This rating corresponds directly to its 600 W peak power dissipation capability and is validated per IEC 61000-4-5. The P6SMB7.5AT3 maintains stable clamping performance and post-surge parameter integrity after repeated 10 A pulses, making it suitable for high-reliability industrial and automotive surge protection.
