Product details
Overview
SMBJ110CAHE3/52 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for clamping voltage transients on power and signal lines. It features a 110 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 122–135 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), and clamps to ≤177 V at 3.4 A peak surge current - deployed in industrial sensor interfaces and telecom line protection.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ110CAHE3/52 datasheet, SMBJ110CAHE3/52 pinout, SMBJ110CAHE3/52 application, or SMBJ110CAHE3/52 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, AEC-Q101 qualification status, clamping performance under standardized surge waveforms, and real-world use context for ESD/lightning transient suppression in bidirectional AC-coupled or floating circuits.
Technical Context
This bidirectional TVS operates symmetrically across both polarities, with identical VBR min/max (122 V / 135 V), ID ≤1.0 µA at VWM = 110 V, and VC = 177 V at IPPM = 3.4 A. Its low incremental surge resistance and sub-nanosecond response time enable effective suppression of fast-rising transients induced by inductive switching or lightning surges.
The device is rated for TJ = –55 °C to +150 °C, meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 (peak reflow 260 °C), and carries AEC-Q101 qualification - confirming suitability for automotive electronics where reliability under thermal cycling and mechanical stress is critical.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110CA-M3/52 | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant variant; identical electrical specs and AEC-Q101 qualification | No functional difference; selected when halogen-free material compliance is required for end-product certification | Direct substitution where halogen-free bill-of-materials is mandated |
| SMCJ110CAHE3/52 | Same VWM/VBR/VC ratings but in larger SMC (DO-214AB) package with 1500 W PPPM rating | Higher surge handling capacity suits applications with higher-energy threats (e.g., outdoor power metering) | Choose when system-level surge testing exceeds 600 W or board layout allows larger footprint |
Compared with SMBJ110CAHE3/52, the M3 variant offers identical protection performance with halogen-free construction, while the SMCJ110CAHE3/52 provides 2.5× higher pulse power in a larger package - enabling trade-offs between board space, regulatory compliance, and threat-level coverage.

FAQ
What does the "CA" suffix indicate in SMBJ110CAHE3/52?
The "CA" suffix denotes a bidirectional configuration - meaning SMBJ110CAHE3/52 provides symmetrical clamping for both positive and negative voltage transients without polarity sensitivity. This differs from unidirectional variants (e.g., SMBJ110AHE3/52), which require correct cathode orientation and only clamp in reverse bias.
Is SMBJ110CAHE3/52 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SMBJ110CAHE3/52 carries AEC-Q101 qualification, confirmed in Vishay's official documentation. This validates its reliability for automotive use including temperature cycling, mechanical shock, and humidity exposure - making it suitable for body control modules, infotainment interfaces, and sensor nodes.
What is the clamping voltage of SMBJ110CAHE3/52 under surge conditions?
SMBJ110CAHE3/52 clamps to a maximum of 177 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 3.4 A (10/1000 µs waveform). This VC value defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during transient events, ensuring downstream ICs remain within safe operating ranges.
Does SMBJ110CAHE3/52 have polarity markings on the package?
No - SMBJ110CAHE3/52 is a bidirectional TVS and carries no cathode band or polarity marking. Both terminals are functionally identical, allowing flexible PCB layout without orientation constraints, unlike unidirectional SMBJ variants which feature a visible cathode band.
What is the maximum operating temperature for SMBJ110CAHE3/52?
SMBJ110CAHE3/52 supports a junction temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C. Its thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) and MSL Level 1 rating ensure stable operation in high-ambient environments such as engine compartments or sealed industrial enclosures.
