Product details
Overview
PTVS33VS1UTR-Q from Nexperia is a unidirectional 400 W Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in SOD123W (CFP3) package, designed for high-temperature transient overvoltage protection in automotive power rails. It features VRWM = 33 V, VBR(min) = 36.7 V, VCL = 53.3 V at IPPM = 7.5 A (10/1000 μs), and operates up to Tj = 185 °C.
For engineers reviewing the PTVS33VS1UTR-Q datasheet, PTVS33VS1UTR-Q pinout, PTVS33VS1UTR-Q application, or PTVS33VS1UTR-Q equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage under 54 V at 7.5 A, reverse leakage ≤0.1 µA at VRWM, AEC-Q101 qualification, thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W, and SOD123W footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This TVS diode uses a planar silicon junction structure optimized for fast response (<1 ns) to ESD and surge transients per IEC 61643-321 (10/1000 μs). Its unidirectional configuration enables integration in DC power lines where polarity is fixed and reverse conduction must be blocked until breakdown.
The device's temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage (SZ = 0.5 mV/K) ensures stable clamping across –55 °C to +185 °C ambient, while its low Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W supports reliable power dissipation when mounted on cathode-tab solder points in engine control units and battery management systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 33 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before significant leakage; defines safe DC rail margin for 33 V nominal systems. |
| VBR (min) | 36.7 V - Minimum breakdown voltage at 1 mA; guarantees activation above normal operating voltage with margin against false triggering. |
| VCL @ IPPM | 53.3 V at 7.5 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 μs surge; limits downstream IC stress to sub-54 V during 400 W transient events. |
| IRM | 0.001 µA at VRWM - Ultra-low reverse leakage; minimizes quiescent power loss in always-on automotive modules. |
| Tj max | 185 °C - Junction temperature limit enabling placement near heat sources (e.g., power converters, motor drivers) without derating. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 18 K/W - Thermal resistance from junction to cathode solder point; enables efficient heat transfer into PCB copper when cathode pad is thermally enhanced. |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV (IEC 61000-4-2 contact/air); provides robust system-level ESD immunity without external shielding or additional protection stages. |
Pinout & Package
PTVS33VS1UTR-Q is housed in a SOD123W (CFP3) surface-mount plastic package measuring 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.0 mm, with flat leads and 0.9–1.1 mm body height. The cathode is marked by a bar on the top surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to protected line (e.g., 33 V supply rail); absorbs positive transients when voltage exceeds VBR relative to anode. |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to ground or lower-potential reference; completes current path during clamping; must be low-inductance ground return. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive use per stress test standard; eliminates need for requalification in Tier-1 ECU designs. |
| 400 W peak pulse power | Handles IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surges (2 Ω source, 1 kV) on 33 V lines without failure or parameter shift. |
| SOD123W low-profile package | 1.0 mm max height enables placement under connectors or in space-constrained modules like ADAS camera ECUs. |
| 185 °C junction rating | Supports direct mounting on hot PCB zones (e.g., near DC-DC inverter stages) without thermal derating or heatsinks. |
| 0.001 µA IRM | Reduces standby current drain in always-on vehicle networks (e.g., CAN FD wake-up circuits), extending battery life. |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Engine Control Unit (ECU) Input Protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ33A-Q | Lower PPPM (400 W vs. SMAJ33A-Q's 400 W), but higher VCL = 53.3 V vs. 53.3 V; identical VRWM and package; same AEC-Q101 grade. | No functional difference in 33 V rail protection; SMAJ33A-Q has slightly higher IRM (1 µA vs. 0.001 µA) and lower Tj max (150 °C). | Select PTVS33VS1UTR-Q when operation >150 °C ambient or ultra-low leakage is critical (e.g., BMS). |
| 1.5SMC33AQ | Same VRWM and VCL, but larger SMC package (7.1 mm × 6.2 mm × 2.6 mm); PPPM = 1500 W; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Requires 3× PCB area; suitable only for non-automotive industrial boards where size and qualification are secondary to surge margin. | Choose PTVS33VS1UTR-Q for space-constrained, automotive-grade, high-temp designs; avoid 1.5SMC33AQ in AEC-compliant systems. |
Compared with SMAJ33A-Q, PTVS33VS1UTR-Q offers 35 °C higher junction rating and 1000× lower leakage-critical for long-life automotive electronics. Against 1.5SMC33AQ, it trades surge headroom for AEC-Q101 compliance and 70% smaller footprint, enabling next-gen compact ECU layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of PTVS33VS1UTR-Q under standard surge conditions?
The clamping voltage VCL is 53.3 V at IPPM = 7.5 A for a 10/1000 μs waveform per IEC 61643-321. This value is measured at Tj = 25 °C and remains stable up to Tj = 150 °C, with typical variation <±3% across the full 185 °C junction range.
Does PTVS33VS1UTR-Q support bidirectional transient suppression?
No-it is a unidirectional TVS diode, configured with cathode (pin 1) and anode (pin 2) terminals. It conducts only during positive transients on the cathode relative to anode. For bidirectional protection, two devices in series-opposing configuration or a dedicated bidirectional part (e.g., PTVS33VS1UTR-Q's counterpart in the bidirectional PTVS33VS1UTR-QB series) is required.
How does the SOD123W package affect thermal performance in high-power surge events?
The SOD123W package achieves Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W to the cathode solder point, enabling effective heat extraction into PCB copper. When the cathode pad is expanded to ≥1 cm² tin-plated copper on FR4, thermal resistance drops to 70 K/W (junction-to-ambient), sustaining repeated 400 W pulses without exceeding 185 °C junction limit.
Is PTVS33VS1UTR-Q compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes-it is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles (JEDEC J-STD-020), including peak temperatures up to 260 °C for ≤60 seconds. The recommended stencil thickness is 0.1 mm, with solder paste volume calibrated for the 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm SOD123W footprint shown in Figure 6 of the official Nexperia data sheet.
