Product details

Overview

SMB8J24CHE3/5B from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bi-directional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-214AA (SMB) package, designed for high-energy surge protection on signal and power lines. It features 24 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 38.9 V clamping voltage (VC) at 20.6 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 800 W peak pulse power (PPPM) with 10/1000 µs waveform. Used to protect automotive sensor interfaces and industrial I/O circuits against ESD and load dump transients.

For engineers reviewing the SMB8J24CHE3/5B datasheet, SMB8J24CHE3/5B pinout, SMB8J24CHE3/5B application, or SMB8J24CHE3/5B equivalent, key selection criteria include bi-directional clamping capability, AEC-Q101 qualification, RoHS-compliant HE3 suffix, and compatibility with 0.2" × 0.2" copper pad layout per JEDEC standards.

Technical Context

This device operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector, responding within <1 ns to transients exceeding its 26.7–29.5 V breakdown range (VBR at 1 mA). Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage (<1 µA at 24 V) and low incremental surge resistance, enabling consistent clamping under repetitive surge stress.

Thermal design relies on RθJA = 72 °C/W and RθJL = 20 °C/W, requiring minimum 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads per terminal for rated 800 W dissipation. The HE3 suffix confirms AEC-Q101 qualification and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, supporting automotive under-hood deployment up to 150 °C junction temperature.

Key Specifications

Use Value: Meets ISO 10605 ±8 kV contact discharge requirement without adding capacitance that degrades 1 Gbps video signal integrity.

Use Scenario: Guarding RS-485 half-duplex transceiver (e.g., SN65HVD230) against lightning-induced surges on long industrial cable runs.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary surge suppression stage upstream of TVS array or integrated protection, handling bulk energy before secondary clamping.

Use Value: Withstands 20.6 A peak current at 38.9 V clamping, limiting transceiver common-mode stress well below absolute maximum ratings.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
SMBJ24CA Same VWM (24 V) and VC (38.9 V), but rated for 600 W PPPM (vs. 800 W); non-AEC-Q101, E3 suffix only. Limited to commercial-grade industrial or consumer systems without automotive qualification requirements. Select when AEC-Q101 is not mandated and lower surge rating suffices for IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 testing.
SMCJ24CA Same VWM and VC, but DO-214AB (SMC) package; 1500 W PPPM rating and higher thermal mass (RθJA = 35 °C/W). Better suited for high-repetition surge environments or PCBs with limited copper area where SMB thermal limits are exceeded. Choose when board space allows larger SMC footprint and sustained surge duty cycle exceeds SMB8J24CHE3/5B derating limits.

Compared with SMBJ24CA and SMCJ24CA, SMB8J24CHE3/5B uniquely balances AEC-Q101 compliance, 800 W surge capacity, and compact SMB footprint-making it optimal for space-constrained automotive modules requiring validated reliability.

FAQ

What does the 'HE3' suffix indicate in SMB8J24CHE3/5B?

The HE3 suffix in SMB8J24CHE3/5B denotes RoHS-compliant construction with AEC-Q101 qualification and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. This distinguishes it from commercial-grade E3 variants and confirms suitability for automotive under-hood applications where reliability and plating integrity are critical. SMB8J24CHE3/5B meets all stress tests defined in AEC-Q101 Rev D.

Is SMB8J24CHE3/5B unidirectional or bidirectional?

SMB8J24CHE3/5B is a bi-directional transient voltage suppressor, meaning it provides symmetrical clamping for positive and negative transients without polarity sensitivity. Its datasheet specifies VBR and VC values for both polarities, and the DO-214AA package carries no cathode band marking-confirming true bi-directionality. SMB8J24CHE3/5B is not interchangeable with unidirectional variants like SMB10J24A.

What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMB8J24CHE3/5B and at what current is it specified?

The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of SMB8J24CHE3/5B is 38.9 V, measured at a peak pulse current (IPPM) of 20.6 A using the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed across temperature and production lot, and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. SMB8J24CHE3/5B maintains this clamping performance up to TJ = 150 °C.

Can SMB8J24CHE3/5B be used in place of SMBJ24CA?

SMB8J24CHE3/5B can functionally replace SMBJ24CA in most surge protection roles due to identical VWM (24 V), VBR (26.7–29.5 V), and VC (38.9 V), but it offers higher PPPM (800 W vs. 600 W) and AEC-Q101 qualification. However, SMB8J24CHE3/5B is not a drop-in replacement if the design relies on non-automotive qualification or requires the exact thermal profile of the SMBJ series. Always verify layout and derating per application conditions for SMB8J24CHE3/5B.

What PCB pad layout is recommended for SMB8J24CHE3/5B to achieve rated power dissipation?

To achieve the full 800 W peak pulse power rating, SMB8J24CHE3/5B requires mounting on 0.2" × 0.2" (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal, as specified in Vishay Document 88422. Smaller pads reduce thermal dissipation capability and require derating per Figure 2 in the datasheet. The DO-214AA outline and pad dimensions are standardized per JEDEC MO-136, and SMB8J24CHE3/5B must be placed with symmetric thermal relief to avoid solder joint stress.
