Product details

Overview

SM5S22-001HE3_A/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount PAR® transient voltage suppressor (TVS) in DO-218AB package, rated for 22 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 25.7 V nominal breakdown (VBR), 3600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), and AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive load dump protection. It operates up to TJ = 175 °C with low leakage (<10 μA at VWM) and clamps transients to ≤35.5 V at 101 A.

For engineers reviewing the SM5S22-001HE3_A/I datasheet, SM5S22-001HE3_A/I pinout, SM5S22-001HE3_A/I application, or SM5S22-001HE3_A/I equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 3600 W surge rating, DO-218AB thermal performance (RθJM = 0.45 °C/W), AEC-Q101 qualification, and compliance with ISO7637-2 load dump waveforms.

Technical Context

This TVS diode uses passivated anisotropic rectifier technology optimized for high-temperature stability and low leakage. Its junction design enables reliable operation at TJ = 175 °C and meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with 245 °C reflow peak.

The device features a metal heatsink as anode terminal, enabling efficient thermal conduction to PCB copper. Its clamping behavior is characterized under standardized 10/1000 μs and 10/10 000 μs waveforms, with verified performance across -55 °C to +175 °C operating range.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
VWM 22 V - Maximum continuous reverse working voltage before clamping begins; defines system operating margin.
VBR (nom) 25.7 V - Breakdown voltage at 5 mA test current; ensures predictable turn-on during transients.
VC @ IPPM 35.5 V - Clamping voltage at 101 A peak pulse; limits downstream IC stress during load dump events.
PPPM (10/1000 μs) 3600 W - Peak pulse power handling; supports high-energy automotive transients without failure.
TJ max +175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables placement near hot engine-control electronics.
RθJM 0.45 °C/W - Junction-to-mount thermal resistance; confirms effective heat transfer to PCB heatsink pad.
Polarity Unidirectional - Anode connected to heatsink; requires correct orientation in series with protected line.

Pinout & Package

Package: DO-218AB - Surface-mount, thermally enhanced case with integral metal heatsink acting as anode terminal; meets UL 94 V-0, RoHS-compliant, and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistant.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
Lead 1 (cathode) Transient current sink Connected to protected line; carries full surge current into heatsink/anode during clamping.
Lead 2 / Metal Heatsink (anode) Common reference & thermal path Serves as both circuit return and primary thermal interface to PCB copper; must be soldered to large copper area.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
AEC-Q101 qualification Validated reliability for automotive underhood applications including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock.
Junction passivation Reduces surface leakage and improves long-term stability at 175 °C junction temperature.
ISO7637-2 compliance Meets Pulse 5a/b load dump requirements when mounted per recommended footprint and thermal layout.
MSL Level 1 rating Enables single-pass reflow at 245 °C peak without moisture-induced damage.
Low VF at high IF ≤2.0 V forward voltage at 100 A pulse (300 μs); minimizes conduction loss during bidirectional fault conditions.

Applications

Engine Control Unit (ECU) Power Input Protection Body Control Module (BCM) CAN Bus Power Line

Use Scenario: Protects H-bridge gate driver supplies in EPS systems subjected to motor regeneration spikes and load dump.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-power TVS on 12 V auxiliary rail feeding motor control logic and sensors.

Use Value: Handles 500 A IFSM non-repetitive surge and sustains 2800 W (10/10 000 μs) for extended load dump events without degradation.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
SM5S22AHM3 Same VWM/VBR/PPPM specs; HM3 suffix indicates halogen-free, matte tin termination, and AEC-Q101 qualification - identical electrical and thermal performance. No functional difference; HM3 replaces HE3 in new designs per Vishay's "Not For New Designs" notice. Select SM5S22AHM3 for new automotive designs requiring latest material compliance and long-term supply assurance.
SMAJ22A Lower PPPM (400 W vs. 3600 W), SMA package (RθJA ≈ 65 °C/W vs. DO-218AB's 0.45 °C/W RθJM), no AEC-Q101 qualification. Suitable only for low-energy industrial or consumer transients; not rated for automotive load dump or 175 °C operation. Use SMAJ22A only in cost-sensitive, non-automotive applications where surge energy is <500 W and ambient <125 °C.

Compared with SM5S22-001HE3_A/I, SM5S22AHM3 offers identical protection performance with updated environmental compliance, while SMAJ22A provides significantly lower surge capacity and thermal robustness - making it unsuitable for AEC-Q101 or high-energy automotive use cases.

FAQ

What is the maximum clamping voltage of the SM5S22-001HE3_A/I at its rated peak pulse current?

The SM5S22-001HE3_A/I clamps to a maximum of 35.5 V at its specified peak pulse current of 101 A under the 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per standard test conditions in the Vishay datasheet (Document Number 88382, page 2) and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during worst-case transients.

Is the SM5S22-001HE3_A/I qualified for automotive applications?

Yes, the SM5S22-001HE3_A/I is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly designed for automotive use, including under-hood engine control units and body electronics. Its 175 °C junction rating, ISO7637-2 compliance, and MSL Level 1 reflow capability confirm suitability for production automotive systems.

What does the "HE3_A/I" suffix mean in SM5S22-001HE3_A/I?

The "HE3" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant, halogen-free construction with matte tin-plated leads meeting JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance; "A" indicates ±5 % VBR tolerance and unidirectional polarity; "I" specifies the preferred packaging code for 13″ tape-and-reel delivery with anode oriented toward sprocket holes.

Can the SM5S22-001HE3_A/I replace the SM5S22A in existing designs?

Yes - SM5S22-001HE3_A/I is a direct replacement for SM5S22A, sharing identical electrical specifications, DO-218AB package dimensions, pinout, and thermal characteristics. The "-001" denotes a specific manufacturing lot or revision variant fully aligned with the base SM5S22A specification.

What is the thermal resistance from junction to mount (RθJM) for the SM5S22-001HE3_A/I?

The SM5S22-001HE3_A/I has a typical RθJM of 0.45 °C/W, measured per JEDEC 51-14 using the Transient Dual Interface Method. This low value reflects the DO-218AB package's metal heatsink anode, which must be soldered to a large PCB copper area to achieve rated thermal performance.
