Product details
Overview
PTVS40VS1UTR,115 from Nexperia is a unidirectional 400 W Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in SOD123W (CFP3) package, designed for high-temperature transient overvoltage protection in power rails. It features VRWM = 40 V, VBR(min) = 44.4 V, VCL = 64.5 V at IPPM = 6.2 A (10/1000 µs), and operates up to Tj = 185 °C - enabling robust surge suppression in industrial power supplies and automotive under-hood modules.
For engineers reviewing the PTVS40VS1UTR,115 datasheet, PTVS40VS1UTR,115 pinout, PTVS40VS1UTR,115 application, or PTVS40VS1UTR,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin vs. protected IC VDD tolerance, thermal resistance to PCB copper area, junction temperature derating above 25 °C, and compatibility with IEC 61000-4-2 (±30 kV contact discharge) and IEC 61643-321 (10/1000 µs waveform).
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode uses an avalanche breakdown structure optimized for fast response (<1 ns) to ESD and lightning-induced transients. Its low Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W enables effective heat transfer from junction to cathode solder point, supporting sustained operation at Tamb = 185 °C when mounted on ceramic substrates.
The device exhibits a positive temperature coefficient of breakdown voltage (SZ = +0.5 mV/K at VRWM = 40 V), ensuring stable clamping performance across wide temperature ranges. Its 1 mm profile and 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm footprint meet space-constrained requirements in DC-DC converter input stages and motor driver power rails.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRWM | 40 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage exceeds 0.1 µA; sets upper limit for protected line nominal voltage. |
| VBR (min) | 44.4 V at IR = 1 mA - guaranteed avalanche initiation threshold; ensures reliable turn-on before downstream IC damage. |
| VCL | 64.5 V at IPPM = 6.2 A (10/1000 µs) - peak clamped voltage seen by protected circuit; must stay below IC absolute maximum rating. |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling per IEC 61643-321; defines surge energy absorption capability without degradation. |
| Tj max | 185 °C - maximum junction temperature; enables use in under-hood, industrial furnace, or high-power LED driver environments. |
| Rth(j-a) | 70 K/W on Al₂O₃ ceramic PCB - thermal resistance defining self-heating rise per watt; critical for long-duration surge duty cycles. |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV contact discharge (IEC 61000-4-2) - qualifies for direct interface protection in exposed connectors and sensor inputs. |
Pinout & Package
SOD123W (CFP3) surface-mount plastic package: 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm × 1.0 mm body, flat lead, low-profile design with cathode marked by bar.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to protected line (e.g., 40 V rail); marking bar identifies this terminal; carries full surge current during clamping. |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to ground reference; forms low-impedance path to earth during transient; requires low-inductance PCB trace routing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-temperature operation | Tj ≤ 185 °C and Tamb ≤ 185 °C - eliminates derating in harsh thermal environments such as engine control units and industrial inverters. |
| Low-profile SMD package | 1.0 mm height - enables placement beneath heatsinks or in stacked PCB assemblies where Z-axis clearance is constrained. |
| Low leakage current | IRM = 0.001 µA at VRWM - minimizes standby power loss in battery-backed systems and high-impedance sensing nodes. |
| Fast transient response | < 1 ns turn-on time - suppresses sub-microsecond ESD events before logic-level ICs experience latch-up or gate oxide rupture. |
| Robust ESD immunity | ±30 kV contact discharge - meets Level 4 IEC 61000-4-2 without external series impedance, simplifying front-end protection design. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Protection | Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) |

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 220 W at 125 °C; Tj max = 150 °C. | Limited to industrial enclosures with active cooling; unsuitable for under-hood or furnace-mounted designs. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs high-temperature requirement and thermal management is assured. |
| SMCJ40A | Higher PPPM = 1500 W, but larger DO-214AB package (7.11 mm × 6.22 mm × 2.34 mm); Rth(j-a) = 19 K/W on FR4. | Requires 3× PCB area; better for infrequent high-energy surges (e.g., lightning), not space-constrained thermal designs. | Choose when surge energy exceeds 400 W and board real estate allows larger footprint. |
Compared with SMAJ40A, PTVS40VS1UTR,115 delivers full 400 W power rating up to 185 °C junction temperature and fits in 1/10 the PCB area; versus SMCJ40A, it trades peak energy capacity for thermal density and mounting flexibility in compact, high-ambient environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of PTVS40VS1UTR,115 under standard test conditions?
The 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 peak voltage imposed on the protected circuit during a defined surge event - critical for verifying margin against downstream IC absolute maximum ratings.
Can PTVS40VS1UTR,115 be used in bidirectional protection configurations?
No - PTVS40VS1UTR,115 is a unidirectional TVS diode with cathode (K) and anode (A) terminals. It conducts only during reverse-biased transients. For bidirectional protection, two devices must be connected in series opposition, or a dedicated bidirectional part like PTVS40VS1UTR,115's counterpart in the PTVS40VS1UTR-B series must be selected.
How does the 185 °C junction temperature rating impact PCB layout?
The 185 °C Tj rating requires thermal design that limits steady-state power dissipation and manages transient heating. Use ≥1 cm² copper pour on cathode pad (per Table 6), prefer ceramic substrates for Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W, avoid thermal vias under the anode, and ensure reflow profile complies with Nexperia's CFP3 soldering guidelines (Fig. 6) to prevent delamination.
Is PTVS40VS1UTR,115 qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q200?
No - the datasheet does not state AEC-Q200 qualification. While its 185 °C rating supports under-hood ambient temperatures, it lacks automotive-specific stress testing (e.g., temperature cycling, board flex, humidity bias). For automotive use, specify Nexperia's AEC-Q200-qualified equivalents such as PTVS40VS1UTR-Q or consult Nexperia's automotive product roadmap directly.
