Product details
Overview
SMAJ110H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 400W surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for automotive-grade overvoltage protection in DC power rails. It features a 110V working stand-off voltage (VWM), 122–149V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1mA test current, and clamps to ≤196V at 1.6A peak impulse current under 10/1000μs waveform - deployed in on-board DC/DC converters and SMPS input stages.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ110H datasheet, SMAJ110H pinout, SMAJ110H application, or SMAJ110H equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, DO-214AC (SMA) package compatibility with automated placement, ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/2b/3a/3b compliance, and verified clamping performance at 110V system level.
Technical Context
The SMAJ110H operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode with glass-passivated junction, enabling sub-1ps response from 0V to VBR min. Its thermal design supports continuous operation up to TJ = +150°C and steady-state power dissipation of 1W, with peak pulse power rated at 400W (10/1000μs) - derated linearly above TA = 25°C per Fig.2.
It exhibits <1μA reverse leakage at VWM = 110V, maximum clamping voltage VC = 196V at IPPM = 1.6A, and meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity - confirming suitability for reflow-soldered automotive and industrial PCB assemblies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 110 V - Maximum continuous DC or RMS voltage the device blocks without conduction. |
| VBR min/max | 122 V / 149 V @ IT = 1 mA - Confirmed avalanche onset range ensuring reliable turn-on margin above system operating voltage. |
| VC @ IPPM | 196 V @ 1.6 A (10/1000μs) - Clamped voltage during surge, defining maximum stress imposed on downstream circuitry. |
| PPPM | 400 W (10/1000μs) - Peak transient energy absorption capacity, validated per REA-defined waveform. |
| IR @ VWM | <1 μA - Negligible leakage current at rated stand-off, minimizing standby power loss in high-impedance rails. |
| Package | DO-214AC (SMA) - Industry-standard surface-mount outline with cathode band marking and 0.060g mass. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Validated for automotive electronic systems per stress test requirements including temperature cycling and HTRB. |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Low-side reference terminal | Connected to ground or low-potential rail; defines forward conduction path during surge clamp. |
| Cathode | High-side protected node | Connected to protected line (e.g., 110V DC bus); conducts avalanche current when voltage exceeds VBR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood and powertrain applications requiring extended temperature and reliability validation. |
| Glass-passivated junction | Enables stable VBR tolerance and long-term leakage stability across thermal cycling and humidity exposure. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ110AH | Lower VBR range (122–135V vs. 122–149V); tighter 110V VWM tolerance; same DO-214AC package. | Better suited for precision 110V systems where lower clamping variance improves margin control. | Select SMAJ110AH when tighter VBR distribution is required; SMAJ110H offers broader surge margin at higher VBR max. |
| SMCJ110H | Higher PPPM (1500W vs. 400W); same VWM/VBR specs; larger DO-214AB (SMC) package. | Used where higher single-pulse energy (e.g., ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 with >100V/microsecond dv/dt) must be absorbed. | Choose SMCJ110H only if board space allows DO-214AB and system requires >400W pulse handling; SMAJ110H fits tighter layouts. |
Compared with SMAJ110AH and SMCJ110H, the SMAJ110H balances AEC-Q101 compliance, DO-214AC footprint efficiency, and 400W ISO 7637-2 coverage - making it optimal for space-constrained automotive and industrial 110V rail protection where full 1500W capability is unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMAJ110H under standard 10/1000μs surge conditions?
The SMAJ110H clamps to a maximum of 196 V when subjected to its rated peak impulse current of 1.6 A using the 10/1000μs waveform. This value is measured per REA-defined test conditions and represents the upper limit of voltage seen by protected circuitry during a transient event - critical for validating downstream component voltage ratings in 110V systems.
Is SMAJ110H suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, SMAJ110H is a unidirectional TVS diode intended for DC circuits with defined polarity. For bidirectional protection at 110V, Taiwan Semiconductor specifies the SMAJ110CH or SMAJ110CAH variants - which feature symmetrical breakdown in both directions and distinct marking codes and electrical curves.
Does SMAJ110H meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, SMAJ110H is AEC-Q101 qualified and tested per the full stress test schedule including HTGB, TCT, and HTRB. It also meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b requirements - confirming suitability for automotive power electronics such as body control modules and on-board chargers.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation rating for SMAJ110H?
The SMAJ110H has a steady-state power dissipation (PD) rating of 1 W at TA = 25°C. This value decreases linearly with ambient temperature per the pulse derating curve (Fig.2), reaching approximately 0.5 W at TA = 100°C - important for thermal design in enclosed or high-temperature environments.
How does SMAJ110H differ from SMAJ110AH in practical design use?
SMAJ110AH has a narrower breakdown voltage range (122–135V vs. 122–149V for SMAJ110H) and identical VWM = 110V, resulting in more consistent clamping behavior across production lots. Designers select SMAJ110H when wider VBR tolerance is acceptable and higher maximum clamping margin is beneficial; SMAJ110AH is preferred for tighter voltage-margin systems.
