Product details
Overview
P6SMB82AHM3_B/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, rated for 82 V breakdown voltage (VBR = 77.9–86.1 V at 1 mA), 113 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 5.3 A peak pulse current, and 600 W peak pulse power with 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed for overvoltage protection of MOSFETs and ICs in automotive power supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB82AHM3_B/H datasheet, P6SMB82AHM3_B/H pinout, P6SMB82AHM3_B/H application, or P6SMB82AHM3_B/H equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 µs surge, AEC-Q101 qualification status, unidirectional polarity marking, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), and halogen-free RoHS compliance per HM3 suffix.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a unidirectional clamping device with cathode-band polarity identification, leveraging glass-passivated junction technology for stable avalanche behavior and low incremental surge resistance. Its 10/1000 µs waveform response enables robust suppression of inductive switching transients and ESD events up to 600 W without degradation.
Designed for surface-mount assembly on 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads, it meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 (peak reflow ≤ 260 °C) and supports automotive-grade reliability via AEC-Q101 qualification - confirmed by HM3_B suffix indicating halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, and AEC-Q101-qualified construction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 77.9 V / 86.1 V at IT = 1 mA - defines precise avalanche onset range for predictable clamping threshold |
| VWM | 70.1 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage exceeds 1 µA |
| VC @ IPPM | 113 V at 5.3 A - clamping voltage during 600 W transient, limiting downstream voltage stress |
| PPPM | 600 W - peak pulse power handling with 10/1000 µs waveform and 0.01 % duty cycle |
| RθJA | 100 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance under standard PCB pad layout (0.2" × 0.2") |
| Operating TJ | -65 °C to +150 °C - validated junction temperature range for under-hood automotive use |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - certified for automotive applications per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, AC/DC HAST |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ85A-E3/5B | Same SMB package, VBR = 85–94.4 V, VC = 125 V @ 4.8 A, non-AEC-Q101, RoHS-compliant only (E3) | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for commercial/industrial use where AEC-Q101 not mandated | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive certification requirement |
| 1.5SMC82A | Same VBR/VC specs but in larger SMC (DO-214AB) package; RθJA = 40 °C/W; no AEC-Q101 option | Higher thermal dissipation margin but requires 30 % larger PCB area; not automotive-qualified | Choose for high-reliability industrial designs needing lower junction temperature rise |
Compared with SMAJ85A-E3/5B and 1.5SMC82A, P6SMB82AHM3_B/H uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, halogen-free construction, and SMB footprint - making it the only drop-in solution for space-constrained automotive modules requiring full compliance traceability.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of P6SMB82AHM3_B/H under a 10/1000 µs surge?
The P6SMB82AHM3_B/H clamps to a maximum of 113 V at 5.3 A peak pulse current under a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per standard test conditions (TA = 25 °C, mounted on 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads) and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during transient events. The clamping performance ensures compatibility with 12 V and 24 V automotive systems where downstream ICs require strict overvoltage limits.
Is P6SMB82AHM3_B/H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, P6SMB82AHM3_B/H is AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by the HM3_B suffix in its ordering code. This indicates full compliance with the AEC-Q101 stress test standard for discrete semiconductors, including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. The qualification applies specifically to this exact part number and supports deployment in engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS power domains.
What does the "HM3_B/H" suffix mean in P6SMB82AHM3_B/H?
The "HM3" denotes halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction; "B" indicates AEC-Q101 qualification for the P6SMB6.8A–P6SMB220A voltage range; and "H" specifies 7" diameter plastic tape-and-reel packaging (750 units per reel). Together, P6SMB82AHM3_B/H identifies a fully automotive-qualified, environmentally compliant, surface-mount TVS diode supplied in standard production packaging for automated assembly.
How does P6SMB82AHM3_B/H compare to bidirectional variants like P6SMB82CA?
P6SMB82AHM3_B/H is unidirectional, with polarity marked by a cathode band, and blocks reverse current until breakdown occurs - ideal for DC rail protection. In contrast, P6SMB82CA is bidirectional, symmetric in both directions, and used in AC-coupled or differential signal lines. They share identical VBR, VC, and PPPM, but P6SMB82AHM3_B/H cannot replace P6SMB82CA in AC applications due to polarity dependence, and vice versa.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation of P6SMB82AHM3_B/H?
The P6SMB82AHM3_B/H has a maximum steady-state power dissipation (PD) of 5.0 W at TA = 50 °C on an infinite heatsink. Under typical PCB conditions (0.2" × 0.2" copper pads), derating applies per Figure 2 in the datasheet - e.g., ~3.5 W at TA = 70 °C. This rating governs continuous reverse leakage power, not transient surge capability, and must be considered alongside thermal layout for sustained operation.
