Product details
Overview
PTVS6V5S1UR-QX from Nexperia is a unidirectional 400 W Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) in SOD123W (CFP3) package, designed for automotive-grade overvoltage protection at 6.5 V reverse standoff voltage. It delivers 35.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM), clamps transients to 11.2 V at rated current, and exhibits ≤5 µA reverse leakage at VRWM, with AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood power rail protection.
For engineers reviewing the PTVS6V5S1UR-QX datasheet, PTVS6V5S1UR-QX pinout, PTVS6V5S1UR-QX application, or PTVS6V5S1UR-QX equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (11.2 V), peak pulse power (400 W), AEC-Q101 compliance, SOD123W footprint compatibility, and unidirectional polarity for DC power line surge suppression.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a unidirectional clamping device, triggering when transient voltage exceeds its 6.5 V reverse standoff threshold (VRWM) and conducting to limit downstream voltage to 11.2 V (VCL) at 250 A IPPM. Its silicon junction design enables sub-10 ns response time to IEC 61643-321 10/1000 μs surges.
Thermal performance is defined by Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W to solder point and Rth(j-a) = 70 K/W on ceramic PCB, supporting sustained operation up to 150 °C junction temperature. ESD robustness includes 30 kV contact discharge per IEC 61000-4-2 and 8 kV HBM rating.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ6.5A-Q | Same VRWM (6.5 V) and VCL (11.2 V), but lower PPPM (400 W vs. SMAJ series' 400 W); identical SOD-123 package | No AEC-Q101 qualification; rated only for industrial temp range (−65 °C to 150 °C) without automotive stress validation | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification needs |
| PTVS6V5S1UR | Identical electrical specs and package, but lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and automotive-specific marking (no "-Q" suffix) | Not recommended for production automotive designs; limited to prototyping or non-safety-critical aftermarket modules | Choose only for pre-production evaluation where full automotive qualification is deferred to later BOM revision |
Compared with PTVS6V5S1UR-QX, SMAJ6.5A-Q offers identical clamping performance but no automotive qualification, while PTVS6V5S1UR matches all parameters except AEC-Q101 validation-making the -QX version the sole choice for production automotive ECUs requiring certified reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of PTVS6V5S1UR-QX at its rated peak pulse current?
The maximum clamping voltage (VCL) is 11.2 V at 35.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM), measured under IEC 61643-321 10/1000 μs waveform conditions. This value ensures downstream ICs see no more than 11.2 V during worst-case surge events, protecting 12 V system regulators and microcontrollers.
Does PTVS6V5S1UR-QX support bidirectional transient suppression?
No, PTVS6V5S1UR-QX is a unidirectional TVS diode, configured for DC power line protection where polarity is fixed. It conducts only when cathode voltage exceeds anode voltage by ≥7.22 V (VBR min), making it unsuitable for AC or data-line applications requiring symmetrical clamping.
How does the SOD123W package affect thermal performance in high-density PCB layouts?
The SOD123W package achieves Rth(j-sp) = 18 K/W to the cathode solder point, enabling efficient heat transfer to copper pour even in tight layouts. Its 1 mm height avoids interference with adjacent tall components, and the standardized footprint supports automated reflow with 0.1 mm stencil thickness per Nexperia's recommended process.
Is PTVS6V5S1UR-QX compatible with lead-free reflow profiles?
Yes, PTVS6V5S1UR-QX is qualified for standard lead-free reflow processes with peak temperatures up to 260 °C. Nexperia specifies JEDEC J-STD-020-compliant thermal profiles, and the CFP3 package withstands multiple reflow cycles without degradation to clamping performance or leakage characteristics.
