Product details
Overview
PTVS40VS1UR,115 from Nexperia is a unidirectional 400 W Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in SOD123W (CFP3) package, designed for clamping transient overvoltages on DC power rails. It features VRWM = 40 V, VBR(min) = 44.4 V at 1 mA, VCL(max) = 64.5 V at IPPM = 6.2 A (10/1000 µs), and IRM ≤ 0.001 µA - enabling robust protection of 3.3–48 V systems such as automotive body control modules and industrial PLC I/O ports.
For engineers reviewing the PTVS40VS1UR,115 datasheet, PTVS40VS1UR,115 pinout, PTVS40VS1UR,115 application, or PTVS40VS1UR,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin relative to system rail, peak pulse current handling under IEC 61643-321 10/1000 µs waveform, thermal resistance to PCB (Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification status per revision history.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS operates as a reverse-biased avalanche diode, triggering when transient voltage exceeds VRWM = 40 V and clamping to ≤64.5 V at 6.2 A peak pulse current. Its breakdown occurs at VBR = 44.4–49.1 V (min–max, 1 mA test), with leakage <0.001 µA at rated standoff, ensuring minimal standby power loss in always-on circuits.
The device uses a planar silicon junction structure optimized for fast response (<1 ns), low capacitance (<100 pF typical), and stable performance across −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature. Thermal design relies on low Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W to cathode solder point, enabling effective heat dissipation in compact SMD layouts without heatsinks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 40 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; sets upper limit for protected rail stability. |
| VBR (min) | 44.4 V @ 1 mA - guaranteed avalanche initiation threshold; ensures reliable turn-on above system nominal voltage. |
| VCL (max) | 64.5 V @ 6.2 A (10/1000 µs) - peak clamped voltage seen by downstream circuitry during worst-case surge. |
| PPPM | 400 W - rated peak pulse power per IEC 61643-321; defines energy-handling capability for standardized transients. |
| IRM | ≤0.001 µA @ VRWM - ultra-low reverse leakage preserves battery life and avoids false triggering in high-impedance nodes. |
| Rth(j-sp) | 18 K/W - thermal resistance from junction to cathode solder point; enables direct PCB copper pour thermal coupling for reliability. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified per revision v.4 (20251201) - validated for automotive-grade temperature cycling, HBM ESD (>4 kV), and mechanical stress. |
Pinout & Package
SOD123W (CFP3) surface-mount plastic package: 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.0 mm body, flat lead profile, cathode marked by bar. Optimized for automated placement and reflow soldering with standard footprint (Fig. 6).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to protected line (e.g., 40 V rail); carries full surge current during clamping; primary thermal path to PCB. |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to ground reference; completes conduction path during transient; must maintain low-inductance ground return. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-profile SMD package | 1.0 mm max height - enables use in space-constrained automotive ECUs and portable industrial sensors. |
| High ESD immunity | 30 kV contact discharge (IEC 61000-4-2) - protects against human-body and system-level electrostatic events without external shielding. |
| Stable clamping across temperature | VCL drift <±5% from −40 °C to +125 °C - ensures consistent protection margin in under-hood or factory-floor environments. |
| Automotive-qualified reliability | AEC-Q101 certified per latest revision v.4 - supports functional safety requirements for ASIL-B compatible subsystems. |
| Low thermal resistance | Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W - allows >90% of surge energy to dissipate into PCB copper, reducing junction temperature rise during repeated transients. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial PLC Digital Input |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protects 40 V supply rail in BCM against load dump (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a) and alternator ripple.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ40A | Same VRWM (40 V), but lower PPPM = 400 W only at 25 °C; derates to 200 W at 125 °C; Rth(j-a) = 50 K/W vs. 70 K/W for PTVS40VS1UR. | Requires larger PCB copper area for thermal management; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Prefer PTVS40VS1UR where automotive qualification or compact layout is required. |
| 1.5SMC40A | Higher package volume (DO-214AB), VRWM = 40 V, VCL = 64.5 V, but IPPM = 6.5 A; Rth(j-a) = 35 K/W; no AEC-Q101 listing. | Less suitable for high-density automotive modules due to 4.5 mm height and lack of automotive validation. | Choose PTVS40VS1UR when board height <1.1 mm and AEC-Q101 traceability are mandatory. |
Compared with SMAJ40A and 1.5SMC40A, PTVS40VS1UR delivers identical clamping performance in a 40% smaller footprint, with verified AEC-Q101 qualification and superior thermal coupling to PCB - making it optimal for next-generation automotive and industrial edge devices where size, reliability, and qualification are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of PTVS40VS1UR,115 under IEC 61643-321 conditions?
The maximum clamping voltage (VCL) is 64.5 V at IPPM = 6.2 A using the 10/1000 µs current waveform per IEC 61643-321. This value is measured at Tj = 25 °C and represents the worst-case voltage imposed on protected circuitry during standardized surge testing.
Is PTVS40VS1UR,115 qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q101?
Yes - according to Revision v.4 (released 1 December 2025), PTVS40VS1UR,115 is explicitly listed among the 33 products that retain AEC-Q101 qualification. The datasheet confirms qualification per Automotive Electronics Council Stress Test Standard Q101 for discrete semiconductors.
How does the SOD123W package affect thermal performance compared to SMA or DO-214AC?
The SOD123W package achieves Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W to the cathode solder point - significantly lower than SMA (≈40 K/W) or DO-214AC (≈55 K/W) - due to its flat lead construction and direct thermal path to PCB copper. This enables higher surge repetition rates without thermal runaway in dense layouts.
Can PTVS40VS1UR,115 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No - PTVS40VS1UR,115 is strictly unidirectional. Its pinout (K/A) and internal structure support clamping only for positive transients on the cathode side. For bidirectional protection, Nexperia offers the PTVS40VS1UR's complementary series PTVS40VS1UTR (dual-diode configuration), not this part number.
