Product details
Overview
SMAJ58H from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for robust overvoltage protection in DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 58 V working stand-off voltage (VWM), 64.4–78.7 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 103 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 3.9 A peak pulse current, and 400 W peak pulse power rating (10/1000 µs waveform). It is widely deployed in automotive-grade DC/DC converters to suppress load dump and ISO 7637-2 pulses.
For engineers reviewing the SMAJ58H datasheet, SMAJ58H pinout, SMAJ58H application, or SMAJ58H equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, DO-214AC (SMA) package compatibility with automated placement, sub-1 ps response time, <1 µA leakage above 10 V, and compliance with ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/2b/3a/3b.
Technical Context
The SMAJ58H operates as a unidirectional avalanche diode, leveraging glass-passivated junction technology to achieve stable, repeatable clamping behavior under fast-rising transients. Its breakdown is specified at 1 mA test current, with guaranteed VBR between 64.4 V and 78.7 V - ensuring reliable turn-on before system-level damage thresholds are exceeded.
It delivers 400 W peak pulse power handling per the standardized 10/1000 µs waveform, derated linearly above 25 °C ambient per Fig.2, and supports steady-state power dissipation up to 1 W. The device meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94V-0 flammability requirements for high-reliability PCB assembly.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 58 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before significant leakage begins; defines safe DC rail margin. |
| VBR @ IT=1 mA | 64.4–78.7 V - Guaranteed avalanche onset range; ensures clamping initiates well below typical 80–100 V automotive surge limits. |
| VC @ IPPM=3.9 A | 103 V - Maximum clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs transient; determines protected circuit's peak stress level. |
| PPPM | 400 W - Peak pulse power capability (10/1000 µs); sufficient for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 (−150 V, 50 Ω, 2 Ω series) suppression. |
| IR @ VWM | <1 µA - Ultra-low reverse leakage at rated stand-off; avoids unnecessary power loss or bias drift in precision circuits. |
| Response Time | <1.0 ps - Sub-picosecond junction response enables effective suppression of ESD and fast-switching noise. |
| Package | DO-214AC (SMA) - Industry-standard surface-mount outline; compatible with standard reflow profiles and pick-and-place equipment. |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Littelfuse SMAJ58A | Lower VBR range (64.4–71.2 V); tighter tolerance; same DO-214AC package and 400 W rating. | Preferred where tighter clamping consistency is required across temperature and lot variation. | Select SMAJ58A when design requires reduced VBR spread and higher production yield in automotive Tier-1 BOMs. |
| ON Semiconductor SMAJ58CA | Bidirectional variant (CA suffix); symmetric ±58 V VWM; identical clamping and power specs. | Required for AC-coupled or differential signal lines where polarity reversal must be suppressed in both directions. | Choose SMAJ58CA only if bidirectional protection is mandated - SMAJ58H is not electrically interchangeable due to polarity asymmetry. |
Compared with SMAJ58A and SMAJ58CA, the SMAJ58H offers optimal cost-performance balance for unidirectional DC rail protection, with verified AEC-Q101 qualification and full ISO 7637-2 coverage - whereas SMAJ58A trades broader VBR tolerance for tighter spec compliance, and SMAJ58CA adds bidirectional capability at no clamping performance gain for single-polarity use cases.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMAJ58H under standard test conditions?
The SMAJ58H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 103 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 3.9 A using the 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per JEDEC standards and guarantees that protected downstream circuitry will not experience voltages exceeding 103 V during transient events - critical for safeguarding 60 V-rated MOSFETs and controllers in automotive DC/DC designs.
Is SMAJ58H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SMAJ58H is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed accelerated stress testing including high-temperature operating life (HTOL), temperature cycling (TCT), and highly accelerated stress test (HAST) per automotive reliability requirements. This qualification confirms its suitability for under-hood and powertrain applications where sustained operation at −40 °C to +150 °C junction temperature is required.
What does the "H" suffix indicate in SMAJ58H?
The "H" suffix in SMAJ58H denotes the high-power variant of the SMAJ family, specifying a 400 W peak pulse power rating (10/1000 µs) and DO-214AC (SMA) package. It distinguishes this part from legacy SMAJ versions with lower power ratings or different packages, and confirms compliance with ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/2b/3a/3b test profiles.
Can SMAJ58H replace SMAJ58A in an existing design?
SMAJ58H and SMAJ58A share the same VWM (58 V) and package but differ in VBR range: SMAJ58H is 64.4–78.7 V, while SMAJ58A is 64.4–71.2 V. If the design relies on tighter VBR tolerance for precise clamping timing, SMAJ58A may be preferred; however, SMAJ58H remains functionally valid where the wider VBR window is acceptable per system margin analysis.
Does SMAJ58H meet RoHS and halogen-free requirements?
Yes, SMAJ58H is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The molding compound contains no brominated flame retardants (BFRs), chlorinated flame retardants (CFRs), or antimony trioxide, and all terminations use matte tin plating per J-STD-002 solderability standards - supporting green manufacturing and end-of-life recycling mandates.
