Product details
Overview
SMA6J58A-TR from STMicroelectronics is a unidirectional 600 W transient voltage suppression diode designed for ESD and surge protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 58 V stand-off voltage (VRM), 91.1 V maximum clamping voltage at 6.7 A (10/1000 µs), and operates up to +175 °C junction temperature - deployed in industrial power supplies, automotive body control modules, and PoE-powered devices.
For engineers reviewing the SMA6J58A-TR datasheet, SMA6J58A-TR pinout, SMA6J58A-TR application, or SMA6J58A-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under IEC 61000-4-2 (30 kV contact/air), low leakage (<0.2 µA @ 25 °C), JEDEC DO-214AC (SMA) package compatibility, and thermal robustness for high-reliability PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This TVS diode uses planar silicon technology to achieve stable breakdown behavior and low dynamic resistance (RD = 2.97 Ω at 10/1000 µs), enabling precise overvoltage clamping with minimal voltage overshoot during fast transients. Its unidirectional configuration supports DC-biased protection paths without reverse conduction.
The device complies with IEC 61000-4-4 Level 4 (4 kV), exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (30 kV air/contact discharge), and maintains rated performance across -55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature - validated per JESD22-A108 and MIL-STD-750 Method 2026.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Stand-off Voltage (VRM) | 58 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before significant leakage begins; sets protection threshold for 48 V nominal systems. |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR min) | 64.4 V @ 1 mA - Guaranteed minimum voltage at which avalanche conduction initiates; ensures reliable triggering above normal operating rail. |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 91.1 V @ 6.7 A (10/1000 µs) - Peak voltage seen by protected circuit during 600 W surge; defines worst-case stress on downstream components. |
| Peak Pulse Power (PPP) | 600 W (10/1000 µs) - Sustained energy-handling capability for common lightning-induced surges; validated per IEC 61000-4-5 waveform. |
| Leakage Current (IRM) | 0.2 µA @ 25 °C - Ultra-low reverse leakage preserves efficiency in battery-backed or low-power sensor circuits. |
| Junction Temperature (Tj max) | +175 °C - Enables operation in under-hood automotive, industrial motor drives, and enclosed power converters without derating. |
| Dynamic Resistance (RD) | 2.97 Ω - Low impedance during clamping reduces voltage overshoot and improves protection margin for sensitive ICs. |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Supports placement near heat sources (e.g., MOSFETs, inductors) without thermal derating in industrial motor controllers. |
| JEDEC DO-214AC (SMA) footprint | Direct drop-in replacement for legacy SMA TVS diodes; compatible with standard reflow profiles (peak 240–245 °C). |
| UL94 V0 resin housing | Self-extinguishing encapsulation meets fire-safety requirements for medical and building automation equipment. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Protection | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMA6J58AHE3_A/H | Same electrical specs; AEC-Q200 qualified, enhanced moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), and automotive-grade traceability. | Required for automotive production; not needed for industrial or consumer use. | Select when automotive qualification or extended MSL reliability is mandated. |
| SMCJ58A | Higher 1500 W peak power (10/1000 µs); DO-214AB (SMC) package - 2× larger footprint and higher thermal mass. | Suitable where space allows and >600 W surge margin is required (e.g., AC front-end, solar inverters). | Choose only if 600 W is insufficient and board layout accommodates SMC package. |
Compared with SMA6J58AHE3_A/H, the SMA6J58A-TR lacks AEC-Q200 validation but offers identical clamping and leakage performance at lower cost for non-automotive use; versus SMCJ58A, it trades surge headroom for compact SMA footprint - critical for dense PoE or sensor PCBs.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMA6J58A-TR under a 10/1000 µs surge?
The maximum clamping voltage is 91.1 V at 6.7 A for a 10/1000 µs waveform, measured per IEC 61000-4-5 test conditions. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range (-55 °C to +175 °C) and defines the peak voltage imposed on protected circuitry during standardized surge events.
Is SMA6J58A-TR bidirectional or unidirectional?
SMA6J58A-TR is a unidirectional TVS diode, indicated by the "A" suffix (versus "CA" for bidirectional). It conducts only in reverse bias during overvoltage events and must be oriented with cathode toward the protected line - essential for DC rail protection where polarity is fixed.
Does SMA6J58A-TR meet automotive qualification standards?
No - SMA6J58A-TR is not AEC-Q200 qualified. For automotive applications, ST offers the pin-compatible SMA6J58AHE3_A/H variant, which adds AEC-Q200 stress testing, enhanced MSL rating, and automotive traceability while retaining identical electrical parameters.
What is the recommended PCB footprint for SMA6J58A-TR?
The recommended footprint follows IPC-7531 for DO-214AC (SMA): pad length 5.43 mm, pad width 1.40 mm, center-to-center spacing 3.90 mm, and thermal relief pads under each lead. ST provides exact dimensions in Figure 14 of DS5142 (Rev 11), ensuring optimal solder joint strength and thermal dissipation.
