Product details
Overview
SMB10J22-E3/5B from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-214AA (SMB) package, designed for high-energy surge protection on DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 22 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 24.4–26.9 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 35.5 V clamping voltage (VC) at 28.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 1000 W peak pulse power (PPPM) with 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in automotive power supply inputs and industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SMB10J22-E3/5B datasheet, SMB10J22-E3/5B pinout, SMB10J22-E3/5B application, or SMB10J22-E3/5B equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance (RθJA = 72 °C/W), RoHS-compliant packaging (E3 suffix), and real-world clamping behavior under transient stress per ANSI/IEEE C62.35.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector: it remains high-impedance below 22 V (VWM), triggers avalanche conduction at 24.4–26.9 V (VBR @ 1 mA), and limits transient voltage to ≤35.5 V (VC) during 1000 W surges. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable breakdown and low leakage (<1 µA at VWM).
Designed for surface-mount automated assembly, SMB10J22-E3/5B meets MSL Level 1 (260 °C reflow peak) and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive under-hood applications. Thermal performance is defined by RθJA = 72 °C/W (on 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads) and RθJL = 20 °C/W, enabling reliable operation up to TJ = 150 °C.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
Use Scenario: 24 V battery-fed ECUs exposed to load dump (ISO 16750-2) and jump-start surges. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional shunt TVS placed between power rail and chassis ground to clamp transients before they reach PMIC or MCU. Use Value: Limits peak voltage to ≤35.5 V during 1000 W surges, preventing damage to 3.3 V/5 V logic supplies downstream of DC/DC converters. |
Use Scenario: Analog output lines (e.g., 4–20 mA current loop) in factory-floor pressure/temperature sensors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional-capable but used unidirectionally to protect op-amp output stage from ESD and inductive kickback. Use Value: Sub-1 µA leakage at 22 V preserves loop accuracy; fast <1 ps response prevents latch-up in precision amplifiers. |
| Telecom DC Power Feeds | OBD-II Diagnostic Interface Protection |
Use Scenario: -48 V telecom rectifier outputs feeding base station backplanes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary surge clamp on input side of hot-swap controllers and POL regulators. Use Value: Withstands repeated 10/1000 µs surges up to 1000 W while maintaining VWM margin against -48 V nominal rail. |
Use Scenario: Pin 16 (battery+) and pin 7 (CAN_H) on OBD-II connectors subject to accidental short-to-battery or ESD. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete TVS mounted directly at connector footprint to divert energy before entering CAN transceiver. Use Value: 35.5 V clamping protects ISO 11898-2 compliant transceivers rated for 40 V absolute max; AEC-Q101 ensures field longevity. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ22A-E3/5B | Same DO-214AA package, identical VWM/VBR/VC specs, but rated for 600 W PPPM (vs. 1000 W). | Limited to lower-energy transients (e.g., IEC 61000-4-2 ESD only); insufficient for ISO 16750-2 load dump. | Select SMBJ22A-E3/5B only where surge energy is constrained and cost sensitivity outweighs headroom. |
| SMAJ22A-E3/5B | Smaller DO-214AC (SMA) package; same VWM/VBR but lower PPPM (400 W) and higher RθJA (110 °C/W). | Thermal derating limits sustained surge duty cycle; unsuitable for automotive under-hood ambient >105 °C. | Choose SMAJ22A-E3/5B only for space-constrained consumer PCBs with benign thermal environments. |

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMB10J22-E3/5B at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMB10J22-E3/5B has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 35.5 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 28.2 A using a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during worst-case surge events - critical for ensuring downstream ICs remain within their absolute maximum ratings. The SMB10J22-E3/5B achieves this clamping performance while maintaining low leakage and stable breakdown.
Is SMB10J22-E3/5B qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SMB10J22-E3/5B is AEC-Q101 qualified, having passed stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and mechanical shock - confirming suitability for automotive powertrain, body electronics, and ADAS modules. Its DO-214AA package, 150 °C max junction temperature, and MSL Level 1 reflow compatibility further support under-hood deployment. The SMB10J22-E3/5B meets these requirements without derating in standard mounting conditions.
What does the "E3/5B" suffix mean in SMB10J22-E3/5B?
The "E3" suffix indicates RoHS-compliant construction meeting JESD 201 Class 1A whisker resistance, while "5B" specifies packaging in 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel with a base quantity of 3200 units. This format ensures compatibility with high-speed pick-and-place equipment and satisfies environmental compliance for global OEMs. The SMB10J22-E3/5B uses matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 standards.
How does SMB10J22-E3/5B differ from bi-directional variants like SMB8J22CA?
SMB10J22-E3/5B is unidirectional with cathode marking and optimized for DC rail protection, whereas SMB8J22CA is bi-directional (no polarity marking) and suited for AC or symmetrical signal lines like RS-485. The SMB10J22-E3/5B offers 1000 W peak pulse power (vs. 800 W for SMB8J22CA) and lower clamping voltage at equivalent current - making it preferable for high-energy DC transients. Both share DO-214AA packaging but differ in test current (1 mA vs. 1 mA), leakage, and surge waveform capability.
What thermal design guidance applies to SMB10J22-E3/5B in PCB layout?
SMB10J22-E3/5B requires minimum 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads per terminal to achieve its specified RθJA of 72 °C/W; reducing pad area increases thermal resistance and risks premature thermal runaway during repeated surges. Layout must avoid thermal isolation - connect pads directly to internal ground/power planes using multiple vias. The SMB10J22-E3/5B's RθJL of 20 °C/W also supports localized thermal relief via direct lead-to-plane conduction, especially critical in automotive under-hood designs exceeding 105 °C ambient.
