Product details
Overview
P6SMB82CA-M3/52 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in the SMB (DO-214AA) package, rated for 600 W peak pulse power with a 10/1000 μs waveform, 70.1 V standoff voltage (VWM), and 113 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 5.3 A peak pulse current - deployed for robust overvoltage protection on signal lines and DC power rails in industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 datasheet, P6SMB82CA-M3/52 pinout, P6SMB82CA-M3/52 application, or P6SMB82CA-M3/52 equivalent, this device delivers verified bidirectional clamping performance, halogen-free RoHS compliance (M3 suffix), and J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity - critical for high-reliability automated SMT assembly and automotive-grade derivative qualification paths.
Technical Context
The P6SMB82CA-M3/52 operates as a silicon avalanche diode with symmetrical bidirectional breakdown behavior, enabling identical clamping in both polarities without polarity marking. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage and low incremental surge resistance under repetitive transient stress.
Designed for transient suppression per IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) and IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT), it exhibits 100 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance and supports operation from −65 °C to +150 °C, with derating above 25 °C per Figure 2 of the datasheet.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off Voltage) | 70.1 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage before significant leakage; defines safe operating margin below clamping threshold |
| VBR (Breakdown Voltage) | 77.9–86.1 V at 1 mA - Measured voltage where device enters avalanche conduction; confirms bidirectional symmetry |
| VC (Clamping Voltage) | 113 V at 5.3 A IPPM - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during 10/1000 μs transient; determines downstream component stress |
| PPPM (Peak Pulse Power) | 600 W - Sustained energy absorption capability under standardized 10/1000 μs waveform; enables protection against inductive switching spikes |
| ID (Max Reverse Leakage) | 1.0 μA at VWM - Ultra-low leakage preserves signal integrity and minimizes standby power loss in high-impedance circuits |
| TJmax | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature rating; supports operation in under-hood or enclosed industrial environments |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Surface-mount outline with 5.59 mm × 4.06 mm footprint; compatible with standard 0.2" × 0.2" copper pad layout per datasheet Fig. 6 |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), molded plastic case meeting UL 94 V-0 flammability rating; matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102; no polarity marking for bidirectional configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode / Cathode (symmetrical) | Bidirectional terminal pair | No functional distinction - either terminal serves as anode or cathode depending on transient polarity; enables single-device protection across AC or floating DC lines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Enables reliable suppression of high-energy transients from relay coil de-energization or motor commutation without degradation |

Use Scenario: Protecting analog output lines (e.g., 4–20 mA current loops) from ESD and load dump-induced transients in factory automation sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional TVS clamp placed directly at connector interface to shunt surge energy before reaching precision ADC or op-amp input stages. Use Value: Maintains signal accuracy under ±8 kV contact ESD (IEC 61000-4-2) while adding <1 pF junction capacitance to avoid bandwidth degradation. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary transient suppressor on 12 V supply rail and LIN data line, operating alongside ceramic capacitors for multi-stage filtering. Use Value: Withstands 113 V clamping at 5.3 A, ensuring downstream 3.3 V/5 V logic remains within absolute maximum ratings during ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a events. |
| Telecom Power Feeds | Consumer USB-C Port Protection |
|
Use Scenario: Guarding PoE-powered Ethernet switch ports against induced surges from nearby lightning strikes or cable coupling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-level TVS on 48 V DC feed lines, coordinated with primary gas discharge tube (GDT) for staged energy diversion. Use Value: 600 W rating handles residual energy after GDT crowbarring, preventing thermal runaway in downstream DC/DC converters. |
Use Scenario: Providing ESD immunity on USB-C CC and VBUS lines in portable docking stations exposed to human-body-model discharges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-response bidirectional clamp mounted adjacent to connector to limit transient voltage before reaching USB PD controller or port multiplexer. Use Value: Sub-1 ns response time and 1.0 μA leakage at 70.1 V preserve USB enumeration reliability and prevent false disconnect detection. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ82CA-T3 | Same SMB package, 600 W PPPM, but VWM = 70.1 V, VC = 113 V - identical electrical specs; differs only in packaging (tape-and-reel vs. bulk) and manufacturer (Bourns vs. Vishay) | Identical use cases; validated in same reference designs for industrial I/O modules | Select when dual-sourcing is required or Bourns supply chain preference applies |
| 1.5SMC82CA | Higher-power 1500 W variant in larger SMC (DO-214AB) package; VWM = 70.1 V, VC = 113 V - same clamping but 2.5× footprint and thermal mass | Preferred for higher-energy environments (e.g., railway signaling) where PCB space allows larger package | Choose only if system-level surge testing exceeds 600 W capability or thermal cycling demands lower junction temperature rise |
Compared with SMBJ82CA-T3, P6SMB82CA-M3/52 offers identical clamping performance and halogen-free compliance but with Vishay's AEC-Q101 qualification pathway; versus 1.5SMC82CA, it trades power headroom for 40% smaller PCB area and faster reflow compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 under a 10/1000 μs transient?
The P6SMB82CA-M3/52 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 113 V at 5.3 A peak pulse current (IPPM) 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 circuitry during surge events. The P6SMB82CA-M3/52 maintains this clamping performance bidirectionally due to its symmetrical avalanche structure.
Is the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 suitable for automotive applications?
The P6SMB82CA-M3/52 itself is commercial-grade, but Vishay offers the automotive-qualified variant P6SMB82CA-HM3_B (with AEC-Q101 qualification) using the same die and SMB package. The P6SMB82CA-M3/52 shares identical electrical characteristics and thermal behavior, making it suitable for pre-qualification prototyping or non-safety-critical automotive subsystems where full AEC-Q101 documentation is not mandated. For production automotive use, specify the HM3_B suffix version.
Does the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 have polarity markings on the package?
No, the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 does not feature polarity markings because it is a bidirectional TVS diode. Its symmetrical construction means either terminal functions as anode or cathode depending on the instantaneous polarity of the transient voltage - eliminating orientation concerns during placement. This contrasts with unidirectional variants (e.g., P6SMB82A) that include a cathode band marking.
What is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of the P6SMB82CA-M3/52?
The typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 is 100 °C/W when mounted on the minimum recommended pad layout (0.2" × 0.2" copper pads per terminal). This value assumes still air conditions and is used to calculate junction temperature rise under steady-state power dissipation. For the P6SMB82CA-M3/52, this thermal characteristic supports reliable operation up to +150 °C junction temperature when derated per Figure 2 of the Vishay datasheet.
How does the M3 suffix affect the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 compared to the E3 version?
Both P6SMB82CA-M3/52 and P6SMB82CA-E3/52 are RoHS-compliant, but the M3 suffix indicates halogen-free molding compound and plating, whereas E3 uses standard RoHS-compliant materials that may contain halogens. The P6SMB82CA-M3/52 meets additional environmental standards including JEDEC J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Functionally, the P6SMB82CA-M3/52 performs identically to the E3 variant in all electrical and thermal parameters.
