Product details
Overview
PTVS6V0P1UP-QX from Nexperia is a unidirectional 600 W Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in SOD128 (CFP5) package, designed for automotive-grade overvoltage protection at 6.0 V reverse standoff voltage (VRWM), with clamping voltage VCL = 10.3 V at IPPM = 58.3 A and IRM ≤ 5 µA. It delivers robust ESD immunity (±30 kV contact/air) and operates across −55 °C to +150 °C ambient range.
For engineers reviewing the PTVS6V0P1UP-QX datasheet, PTVS6V0P1UP-QX pinout, PTVS6V0P1UP-QX application, or PTVS6V0P1UP-QX equivalent, this device serves as a qualified AEC-Q101-compliant transient suppressor for 12 V automotive power rails, battery input lines, and industrial sensor interfaces where low-profile SMD mounting and precise 6.0 V clamping are required.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates in avalanche breakdown mode under transient stress, providing fast response (<1 ns) to IEC 61643-321 10/1000 µs surges. Its unidirectional configuration protects against positive-going transients on grounded-cathode circuits, with cathode marked by a bar on the SOD128 body.
Thermal performance is defined by Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W to solder point and Rth(j-a) = 60 K/W on ceramic PCB - enabling reliable power dissipation in compact automotive ECUs and power management modules without heatsinking.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power (PPPM) | 600 W per IEC 61643-321 (10/1000 µs); sustains single high-energy surge without failure |
| Reverse Standoff Voltage (VRWM) | 6.0 V; maximum continuous DC voltage before leakage exceeds 5 µA - matches nominal 6 V rail systems |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 10.3 V at 58.3 A peak pulse current; limits downstream IC voltage during surge to safe level |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 6.67–7.37 V at 10 mA; ensures reliable turn-on margin above VRWM for stable protection threshold |
| Reverse Leakage (IRM) | ≤5 µA at VRWM; minimizes standby power loss in always-on automotive modules |
| ESD Rating | ±30 kV (IEC 61000-4-2 contact/air); eliminates need for additional ESD stages in infotainment and body control units |
| Junction Temperature (Tj) | −55 °C to +150 °C; supports under-hood deployment in engine control and lighting modules |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOD128 (CFP5) - surface-mount plastic package, 3.8 mm × 2.6 mm × 1.0 mm body height, 4 mm lead pitch, optimized for automated reflow assembly and space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (K) | Cathode | Connected to system ground or reference node; marking bar on package identifies this terminal |
| 2 (A) | Anode | Connected to protected line (e.g., 6 V supply rail); conducts surge current to ground when VAK > VBR |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD stress - enables direct integration into ASIL-B supporting systems |
| 1 mm profile height | Enables placement beneath connectors or near edge-mount components in compact ADAS camera modules and junction boxes |
| Low thermal resistance to solder point | Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W allows efficient heat transfer to PCB copper, sustaining repeated surge events without thermal runaway |
| High surge current capability | IPPM = 58.3 A at 10/1000 µs enables protection against ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/5a in 12 V vehicle networks |
| Stable leakage at high temperature | IRM remains ≤5 µA up to 125 °C ambient - critical for battery management systems operating near hot zones |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial Sensor Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting LIN bus transceivers and door module microcontrollers from load dump and inductive switching spikes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between LIN line and ground, clamping transients within 1 ns to prevent latch-up in transceiver ICs. Use Value: Maintains VRWM = 6.0 V alignment with LIN physical layer voltage tolerance while limiting VCL to 10.3 V - preserving signal integrity during ISO 16750-2 tests. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding 4–20 mA current loop inputs in PLC analog input cards exposed to field wiring surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Anode connected to loop supply line, cathode to local ground - shunts induced transients before reaching op-amp front-end. Use Value: 600 W PPPM rating handles repetitive 100 V/1 A surges per IEC 61000-4-4; low IRM avoids offset error in precision current sensing. |
| Automotive Lighting Driver | Power Supply Input Stage |
|
Use Scenario: Input protection for LED driver ICs in headlamp modules subjected to alternator load dump (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Placed directly at 12 V input pin of buck controller, with cathode tied to chassis ground. Use Value: Clamps 120 V/10 ms load dump to ≤10.3 V within nanoseconds, preventing overvoltage shutdown and ensuring uninterrupted illumination. |
Use Scenario: Primary transient suppression at DC input of 6 V LDO-based power supply for infotainment SoCs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: First-line defense upstream of input capacitor and regulator, absorbing energy before it reaches filtering stage. Use Value: Matches VRWM = 6.0 V to LDO input rating; 1 mm height permits placement adjacent to connector footprint without interfering with shield cans. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PTVS6V0S1UR | Same VRWM (6.0 V) and VCL (10.3 V), but rated at 400 W PPPM and packaged in SOD-123FL | Limited to lower-energy transients; unsuitable for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a compliance | Select only for cost-sensitive non-automotive applications where 600 W surge capacity is not required |
| SMAJ6.0A-Q | Same VRWM (6.0 V), but higher VCL = 10.5 V at 62.7 A and larger SMA package (2.4 mm height) | Requires more board area; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and fails automotive qualification testing | Acceptable for industrial prototypes but not for production automotive designs requiring OEM approval |
Compared with PTVS6V0S1UR and SMAJ6.0A-Q, the PTVS6V0P1UP-QX uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, 600 W surge rating, and 1 mm profile - making it the only option qualified for volume production in space-constrained, safety-critical 6 V automotive subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of PTVS6V0P1UP-QX under surge conditions?
The clamping voltage (VCL) is 10.3 V at a peak pulse current (IPPM) of 58.3 A, measured per IEC 61643-321 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C) and defines the maximum voltage seen by downstream circuitry during transient events.
Is PTVS6V0P1UP-QX suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No - PTVS6V0P1UP-QX is a unidirectional TVS diode, intended for protection against positive transients on grounded-cathode configurations. For bidirectional protection (e.g., data lines), a symmetric device such as PTVS6V0R1UP-QX would be required, which features matched breakdown in both polarities.
How does the SOD128 package affect thermal performance compared to SMA or SMB?
The SOD128 (CFP5) package achieves Rth(j-sp) = 12 K/W to solder point - significantly lower than SMA (≈30 K/W) due to its exposed cathode tab and optimized thermal pad layout. This enables higher surge repetition rates and better reliability in thermally dense automotive PCBs without added copper pours.
Can PTVS6V0P1UP-QX replace older P6KE6.0A in automotive designs?
No - P6KE6.0A is a through-hole DO-15 device with 600 W rating but no AEC-Q101 qualification, 3.5 mm height, and inferior thermal resistance. PTVS6V0P1UP-QX is not a drop-in replacement; it requires SMD layout revision but delivers automotive compliance, 1 mm height, and superior thermal performance in modern ECUs.
