Product details
Overview
P6SMB82AH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 600W surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode with a nominal breakdown voltage of 77.9–86.1 V, clamping voltage of 113 V at 5.5 A peak pulse current, and stand-off voltage of 70.1 V. It features glass-passivated junction, AEC-Q101 qualification, and DO-214AA (SMB) package for automotive ESD and load-dump protection.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB82AH datasheet, P6SMB82AH pinout, P6SMB82AH application, or P6SMB82AH equivalent, key selection criteria include its 113 V clamping performance under 10/1000 µs surge, <1 µA leakage at 70.1 V, and compliance with ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/2b/3a/3b for automotive electronics robustness.
Technical Context
The P6SMB82AH operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, triggered when reverse voltage exceeds its minimum breakdown voltage (77.9 V) at 1 mA test current. Its fast response time (<1.0 ps) ensures suppression before transient energy damages downstream ICs.
Thermal design relies on RθJC = 10 °C/W and RθJA = 55 °C/W, enabling reliable operation up to TJ = 150 °C. The device sustains non-repetitive 600 W peak pulse power per 10/1000 µs waveform and handles 100 A forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 77.9 V / 86.1 V - defines guaranteed avalanche initiation range at 1 mA, critical for precise overvoltage threshold setting |
| VWM | 70.1 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage; ensures no conduction during normal system operation |
| VC @ IPPM | 113 V at 5.5 A - clamped voltage during worst-case 10/1000 µs transient; determines protected circuit's maximum stress level |
| PPPSM | 600 W - peak pulse power handling capacity; supports high-energy automotive load-dump events |
| IR @ VWM | <1 µA - ultra-low reverse leakage preserves battery life in always-on automotive modules |
| TJ max | +150 °C - enables under-hood deployment without derating in engine control units and body controllers |
| Package | DO-214AA (SMB) - industry-standard SMT footprint compatible with automated placement and reflow soldering |
Pinout & Package

| Low profile SMB package | Height ≤ 2.6 mm enables use in space-constrained ECUs and ADAS sensor modules |
| Junction-to-case thermal resistance | RθJC = 10 °C/W - supports direct thermal coupling to PCB copper pour for improved power dissipation |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 12 V/24 V battery-fed microcontroller power input in engine control unit exposed to load-dump transients up to 35 V. IC Role / Device Role: Primary TVS clamp on main supply rail, diverting surge current away from LDO regulators and MCU VDD. Use Value: Clamps to 113 V within <1 ps, limiting stress on 16 V-rated input capacitors and preventing brownout-induced MCU reset. | Use Scenario: RS-485 transceiver data lines in factory automation PLC I/O module subject to EFT bursts per IEC 61000-4-4. IC Role / Device Role: Secondary-level TVS on signal lines, placed after common-mode choke to suppress differential-mode surges. Use Value: Sub-1 µA leakage avoids DC bias shift on 120 Ω termination; 113 V clamping prevents transceiver latch-up during 4 kV EFT events. |
| LED Lighting Driver Input Protection | DC-DC Converter Input Stage Protection |
Use Scenario: Constant-current LED driver in commercial vehicle headlamp subjected to ISO 16750-2 jump-start pulses (up to 24 V). IC Role / Device Role: Front-end TVS on buck converter input, upstream of input capacitor and controller IC. Use Value: Withstands repetitive 600 W pulses without degradation; 70.1 V VWM allows full 24 V operation while blocking false triggering. | Use Scenario: 48 V-to-12 V isolated DC-DC converter in telecom power shelf exposed to lightning-induced surges on primary side. IC Role / Device Role: Bulk transient suppressor across primary winding input, coordinated with MOV and fuse. Use Value: 113 V clamping voltage aligns with 150 V MOSFET VDSS rating, ensuring FET remains within SOA during 10/1000 µs transients. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ82A | Same DO-214AA package; VBR = 91.1–100.9 V, VC = 131 V @ 4.6 A, PPPSM = 600 W | Higher clamping voltage increases stress on downstream 100 V-rated components | Select when higher VBR tolerance is needed to avoid nuisance clamping near 82 V nominal rails |
| 1.5SMC82A | DO-214AB (SMC) package; VBR = 91.1–100.9 V, VC = 131 V @ 4.6 A, PPPSM = 1500 W | Larger footprint and higher power rating suit industrial mains-input stages, not space-constrained automotive PCBs | Choose for higher surge endurance where board area permits and 1500 W rating is required |
Compared with SMBJ82A and 1.5SMC82A, the P6SMB82AH offers tighter VBR (77.9–86.1 V) and lower clamping (113 V), making it optimal for precision 82 V threshold protection in automotive modules where layout space and thermal constraints are critical.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range for P6SMB82AH?
The P6SMB82AH has a guaranteed breakdown voltage range of 77.9 V to 86.1 V at 1 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This tight VBR window ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports precise overvoltage threshold design in 82 V nominal systems. The P6SMB82AH's VBR is validated during 100% production testing.
Is P6SMB82AH unidirectional or bidirectional?
The P6SMB82AH is a unidirectional TVS diode, indicated by the absence of "C" or "CA" prefix in its part number and confirmed by its single cathode band marking. It conducts only during reverse-biased overvoltage events and blocks forward current like a standard rectifier diode. Bidirectional variants (e.g., P6SMB82CAH) are available separately for AC-line or differential-signal protection.
Does P6SMB82AH meet automotive reliability standards?
Yes, the P6SMB82AH is AEC-Q101 qualified and meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b test requirements for automotive electrical disturbances. Its glass-passivated junction, JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and moisture sensitivity level 1 rating further validate its suitability for under-hood and chassis-mounted automotive applications. The P6SMB82AH's qualification data is documented in Taiwan Semiconductor's official AEC-Q101 report.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of P6SMB82AH under surge conditions?
The P6SMB82AH clamps to a maximum of 113 V when subjected to its rated 5.5 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured at TA = 25°C and represents the upper limit of voltage seen by protected circuitry during worst-case transient events. Derating applies above 25°C ambient per the pulse derating curve in the P6SMB82AH datasheet.
Can P6SMB82AH be used in DC-DC converter input protection?
Yes, the P6SMB82AH is commonly deployed for input-stage transient protection in DC-DC converters, especially in automotive 12 V/24 V systems. Its 70.1 V stand-off voltage allows safe operation across nominal input ranges, while its 113 V clamping voltage aligns with 150 V-rated MOSFETs and input capacitors. The P6SMB82AH's low leakage (<1 µA) prevents efficiency loss in always-on converter standby modes.
