Product details
Overview
PTVS6V0S1UR,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 a 6.0 V reverse standoff voltage (VRWM), 7.37 V maximum breakdown voltage (VBR), 10.3 V clamping voltage (VCL) at 38.8 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and <0.001 µA reverse leakage at VRWM - deployed in industrial power supply protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PTVS6V0S1UR,115 datasheet, PTVS6V0S1UR,115 pinout, PTVS6V0S1UR,115 application, or PTVS6V0S1UR,115 equivalent, this device serves as a compact, surface-mount overvoltage clamp for 6 V nominal rail protection with AEC-Q101 qualification retained per revision history, low 1 mm profile, and IEC 61643-321 (10/1000 µs) compliance.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS operates as a silicon avalanche diode, triggered when reverse voltage exceeds VRWM = 6.0 V, entering avalanche conduction to limit transient energy. Its clamping action holds line voltage ≤10.3 V during 38.8 A pulses, enabling robust protection of downstream 6 V logic or analog circuitry without latch-up or damage.
The device uses a planar passivated junction structure optimized for fast response (<1 ns), low capacitance, and stable thermal performance up to 150 °C junction temperature. Its SOD123W package provides 220 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard FR4 PCBs, supporting reliable operation under repeated surge stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Peak Pulse Power (PPPM) | 400 W - sustains 10/1000 µs transients per IEC 61643-321 without degradation |
| Reverse Standoff Voltage (VRWM) | 6.0 V - maximum continuous DC voltage before significant leakage; sets operating margin for 6 V systems |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 6.67–7.37 V @ 10 mA - precise avalanche onset ensures predictable turn-on above VRWM |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 10.3 V @ IPPM = 38.8 A - limits protected node voltage during worst-case surge |
| Reverse Leakage (IRM) | <0.001 µA @ VRWM - negligible standby current; avoids battery drain or signal distortion |
| Package | SOD123W (CFP3) - 2.6 × 1.7 × 1.0 mm SMD footprint with cathode-marked bar; optimized for high-density layouts |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - qualified per Automotive Electronics Council standard for discrete semiconductors (per revision v.4, Dec 2025) |
Pinout & Package
SOD123W (CFP3) plastic surface-mounted package: 2-terminal, flat lead, 1 mm height, 2.6 mm × 1.7 mm body. Cathode identified by molded marking bar.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cathode (K) | Connected to protected line (e.g., +6 V rail); absorbs positive transients when referenced to ground |
| 2 | Anode (A) | Connected to system ground; completes conduction path during avalanche clamping event |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse rating | Enables single-device protection against IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surges (4 kV, 2 Ω source) on 6 V rails |
| 1 mm package height | Allows placement under low-profile shields or in space-constrained modules (e.g., automotive ECUs) |
| 0.001 µA max IRM at VRWM | Eliminates measurable loading on precision 6 V references or low-power sensor supplies |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates reliability for automotive power domains including body control, lighting, and infotainment |
| Thermal resistance Rth(j-a) | 220 K/W on standard FR4 - enables >1 Hz surge repetition without thermal runaway |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Protection | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Protecting 6 V auxiliary power rails in programmable logic controllers (PLCs) against load dump and inductive switching spikes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS clamp placed between 6 V output and ground; responds within <1 ns to suppress transients exceeding 6.0 V. Use Value: Prevents latch-up or permanent damage to 6 V LDOs and microcontroller I/Os during field-installation wiring faults. |
Use Scenario: Safeguarding LIN bus power input in BCMs exposed to battery transients during engine cranking or jump-start events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage clamp on 6 V LIN regulator input; conducts only during >6.0 V excursions, remaining inert during normal operation. Use Value: Maintains LIN communication integrity by limiting input voltage to ≤10.3 V during 100 V/50 ms load dump events. |
| Medical Diagnostic Equipment | Smart Sensor Node Power Rail |
|
Use Scenario: Shielding 6 V analog front-end supplies in portable ultrasound units from ESD and EFT bursts during clinical handling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Final-stage rail protector adjacent to ADC reference ICs; clamps fast transients before they couple into sensitive analog paths. Use Value: Preserves 16-bit measurement accuracy by preventing voltage overshoot-induced reference drift or comparator mis-triggering. |
Use Scenario: Securing 6 V power input of wireless IoT sensor nodes powered by buck converters in factory automation environments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-leakage TVS on converter output; blocks 400 W surges while drawing zero static current from battery or energy-harvesting source. Use Value: Extends battery life beyond 10 years by eliminating µA-level leakage that would otherwise discharge primary cells over time. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ6.0A | Same VRWM (6.0 V), but lower PPPM = 400 W (same), higher VCL = 10.5 V, larger SMA package (4.5 × 2.7 × 2.2 mm) | Less suitable for ultra-thin designs; requires more PCB area and has higher thermal resistance | Select if legacy SMA footprint compatibility is required and height >1 mm is acceptable |
| 1.5SMC6.0A | Higher PPPM = 1500 W, same VRWM, but much larger SMC package (7.1 × 6.2 × 2.6 mm); VCL = 10.5 V | Over-specified for 6 V rail protection; excessive size and cost for typical industrial surges | Choose only where multi-kilowatt surge immunity (e.g., railway traction) is mandated |
Compared with SMAJ6.0A and 1.5SMC6.0A, PTVS6V0S1UR,115 delivers identical 6 V clamping performance in a 60% smaller footprint and 55% lower profile - critical for modern compact electronics where board space and Z-height are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of PTVS6V0S1UR,115 under rated surge conditions?
The maximum clamping voltage (VCL) is 10.3 V at a peak pulse current (IPPM) of 38.8 A, measured using the standardized 10/1000 µs waveform per IEC 61643-321. This value is guaranteed across temperature and production lot, ensuring consistent protection margin for 6 V systems.
Is PTVS6V0S1UR,115 still qualified for automotive applications?
Yes - according to the December 2025 revision history (v.4), PTVS6V0S1UR,115 retains AEC-Q101 qualification. The datasheet explicitly lists it among the 33 types "changed to standard qualification" and confirms suitability for automotive applications in Section 11 (Test Information).
How does the SOD123W package affect thermal performance compared to SMA?
The SOD123W package delivers 220 K/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard FR4 PCBs - significantly higher than SMA's ~150 K/W - but its 1 mm height and small footprint enable better heat spreading in dense layouts. For repetitive surges, thermal design must account for this higher Rth, though single-event robustness remains unchanged.
Can PTVS6V0S1UR,115 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No - PTVS6V0S1UR,115 is strictly unidirectional. It conducts only when cathode voltage exceeds anode voltage by ≥6.67 V. For AC or bipolar transient protection (e.g., RS-485 lines), a dedicated bidirectional TVS such as PTVS6V0S1UR,115's dual-diode counterpart must be selected.
