Product details
Overview
SMBJ110AHM3/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for clamping voltage transients on power and signal lines. It features 110 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 122–135 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 177 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 3.4 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 600 W peak pulse power rating with 10/1000 µs waveform - used to protect MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor interfaces in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ110AHM3/H datasheet, SMBJ110AHM3/H pinout, SMBJ110AHM3/H application, or SMBJ110AHM3/H equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, AEC-Q101 qualification status (via HM3 suffix), thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), and compliance with UL 497B for surge protection systems.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping device triggered by transient overvoltage events, leveraging an avalanche breakdown mechanism. Its unidirectional configuration provides forward conduction only during reverse-biased surges, with cathode-band marking indicating polarity. The device is rated for repetitive 0.01% duty cycle pulses and derates linearly above 25 °C ambient per Fig. 2.
Designed for PCB-level surge immunity, SMBJ110AHM3/H meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 (peak reflow 260 °C), uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102, and is halogen-free and RoHS-compliant per Vishay's HM3 suffix designation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110AHE3/H | Same electrical specs but RoHS-compliant commercial grade (E3); not AEC-Q101 qualified | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for non-automotive industrial use where qualification is not mandated | Select SMBJ110AHE3/H for cost-sensitive commercial designs without automotive reliability requirements |
| SMBJ110CAHM3/H | Bidirectional variant with same VWM (110 V), but symmetrical clamping in both polarities | Required for AC-coupled or floating signal lines where polarity reversal occurs (e.g., RS-485, CAN) | Choose SMBJ110CAHM3/H only when bidirectional protection is needed; unidirectional SMBJ110AHM3/H offers lower leakage and tighter VBR tolerance |
Compared with SMBJ110AHE3/H and SMBJ110CAHM3/H, SMBJ110AHM3/H uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, halogen-free construction, and unidirectional low-leakage performance - making it optimal for automotive and high-reliability industrial power rail protection where polarity is fixed and qualification is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMBJ110AHM3/H at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMBJ110AHM3/H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 177 V at its specified peak pulse current (IPPM) of 3.4 A under the 10/1000 µs waveform condition. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The SMBJ110AHM3/H maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C.
Is SMBJ110AHM3/H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SMBJ110AHM3/H is AEC-Q101 qualified, as indicated by the "HM3" suffix in its part number. This qualification confirms successful completion of stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and ESD robustness required for automotive electronic components. The SMBJ110AHM3/H is intended for use in body electronics, powertrain subsystems, and infotainment systems where transient immunity and long-term reliability are essential.
What does the "HM3" suffix signify in SMBJ110AHM3/H?
The "HM3" suffix in SMBJ110AHM3/H denotes halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction with AEC-Q101 qualification. It distinguishes this variant from commercial-grade versions (e.g., E3) and confirms compliance with automotive reliability standards, material restrictions, and assembly process requirements including MSL Level 1 and lead-free reflow compatibility. The SMBJ110AHM3/H meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 497B recognition.
How does SMBJ110AHM3/H differ from bidirectional SMBJ110CAHM3/H?
SMBJ110AHM3/H is unidirectional and features a cathode band marking, while SMBJ110CAHM3/H is bidirectional with no polarity marking and symmetrical clamping in both directions. The SMBJ110AHM3/H exhibits lower reverse leakage (1.0 µA at 110 V) versus the bidirectional version, and its VBR is specified only in reverse. Use SMBJ110AHM3/H for DC rails and polarized signal lines; choose SMBJ110CAHM3/H for AC or differential interfaces like CAN or RS-485.
What is the thermal resistance of SMBJ110AHM3/H, and how does it affect layout?
The SMBJ110AHM3/H has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 100 °C/W when mounted on 0.2" × 0.2" (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal. This value assumes minimum recommended pad layout per Vishay's datasheet Figure 5. To maintain safe junction temperatures under sustained power dissipation, designers must ensure adequate copper area and avoid excessive trace length - especially critical during repetitive surge events where thermal accumulation may occur. The SMBJ110AHM3/H's RθJL of 20 °C/W further supports heat transfer to PCB copper planes.
