Product details
Overview
SMB6F130AY from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q101-qualified unidirectional automotive TVS diode in SMB Flat package, designed to clamp transient overvoltages up to 209 V (clamping voltage at 3 A) with 130 V stand-off voltage and 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs). It operates from −55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature and delivers 265 A peak pulse current under 8/20 µs surge, protecting CAN, LIN, and body control modules against ISO 7637-2 pulses and IEC 61000-4-2 ESD events.
For engineers reviewing the SMB6F130AY datasheet, SMB6F130AY pinout, SMB6F130AY application, or SMB6F130AY equivalent, this device is selected for high-reliability 12 V/24 V automotive power line protection where low leakage (<0.2 µA at 25 °C), flat 1 mm profile, and validated ISO 10605 ±30 kV air/contact discharge performance are critical.
Technical Context
This TVS diode uses planar silicon technology to achieve stable breakdown behavior across −55 °C to +175 °C, with a temperature coefficient αT of 10.8 × 10−4/°C enabling accurate VBR and VCL prediction at elevated junction temperatures. Its unidirectional configuration provides asymmetric clamping optimized for DC-biased automotive lines.
It meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 (−150 V), Pulse 2a (+112 V), Pulse 3a (−220 V), and Pulse 3b (+150 V) requirements for 12 V systems, while maintaining <1 µA leakage at 85 °C and dynamic resistance of 7 Ω at 3 A - key for minimizing voltage overshoot during fast transients.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Stand-off Voltage (VRM) | 130 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction begins |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) | 144–160 V at 1 mA - precise threshold for initiating clamping under surge conditions |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 209 V at 3 A (10/1000 µs) - limits downstream circuit voltage during worst-case transients |
| Peak Pulse Power | 600 W (10/1000 µs), 4 kW (8/20 µs) - defines energy-handling capability per waveform standard |
| Leakage Current | 0.2 µA at 25 °C, 1 µA at 85 °C - ensures minimal standby power loss and signal integrity in always-on modules |
| Junction Temperature Range | −55 °C to +175 °C - supports under-hood placement without derating in engine control units |
| Dynamic Resistance (RD) | 7 Ω - determines voltage rise above VBR under surge current (ΔV = RD × IPP) |
Pinout & Package
The SMB6F130AY is housed in an SMB Flat surface-mount package with 2 terminals: Cathode (marked band) and Anode. The 1 mm profile enables PCB height constraints in compact automotive ECUs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (marked band) | Surge return path / clamping reference | Connected to protected line; conducts during positive transients relative to anode |
| Anode | Ground reference / surge sink | Typically tied to chassis or battery ground; completes clamping path for unidirectional operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use including temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock testing |
| ISO 10605 ±30 kV ESD immunity | Exceeds Level 4 for both air and contact discharge on 150 pF/330 Ω and 330 pF/330 Ω models |
| Flat 1 mm SMB package | Enables low-profile layout in space-constrained junction boxes and ADAS sensor housings |
| Low dynamic resistance (7 Ω) | Minimizes clamping voltage overshoot during high-di/dt events like load dump or inductive switching |
| High Tj max (175 °C) | Supports direct mounting near heat sources such as power relays or motor drivers without thermal derating |
Applications
| Body Control Module (BCM) | Powertrain Control Unit (PCU) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar unidirectional automotive TVS applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ130A | Same SMB package, but rated for 600 W (10/1000 µs); VBR min 144 V, VCL 209 V at 3 A - identical electrical specs | No AEC-Q101 qualification; intended for industrial/commercial use only | Select when automotive qualification is not required and cost sensitivity outweighs qualification overhead |
| SMCJ130A | Larger SMC package (2.6 mm height); same VRM/VBR/VCL, but higher 1500 W (10/1000 µs) rating and 440 A IPP | Used where higher surge margin is needed, e.g., alternator output lines or heavy-duty truck 24 V systems | Choose when board space allows and system-level surge testing requires >600 W headroom |
Compared with SMBJ130A and SMCJ130A, SMB6F130AY uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, 1 mm profile, and validated ISO 7637-2 Pulse 3b (+150 V) immunity - making it the only choice for space-constrained, safety-critical automotive power rail protection.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMB6F130AY at 3 A?
The maximum clamping voltage is 209 V under 10/1000 µs waveform at 3 A peak pulse current, measured at Tamb = 25 °C. This value increases linearly with junction temperature using αT = 10.8 × 10−4/°C, reaching ~225 V at Tj = 175 °C.
Does SMB6F130AY meet ISO 7637-2 Pulse 3b requirements?
Yes - SMB6F130AY is validated for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 3b (+150 V) on 12 V systems. Its 130 V stand-off voltage and 209 V clamping voltage ensure safe operation with margin below the 150 V test amplitude, preventing false triggering while suppressing overshoot.
Can SMB6F130AY be used in 24 V automotive systems?
No - SMB6F130AY is specified for 12 V nominal systems. Its 130 V stand-off voltage is too low for reliable operation on 24 V battery rails, where minimum recommended VRM is ≥170 V (e.g., SMB6F170AY) to accommodate load dump transients exceeding 200 V.
What is the marking code for SMB6F130AY on the device body?
The top-side marking is "7FSY", as defined in Table 6 of DS12412 Rev 1. This 4-character code uniquely identifies the SMB6F130AY variant within the SMB6FxxAY series and confirms unidirectional configuration and automotive grade.
