Product details
Overview
SMBJ110-E3/5B 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 a 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, 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 SMBJ110-E3/5B datasheet, SMBJ110-E3/5B pinout, SMBJ110-E3/5B application, or SMBJ110-E3/5B equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 110 V working voltage, 177 V clamping performance under surge, RoHS-compliant matte tin plating, and compatibility with automated SMT placement on 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping protection device, conducting only when reverse voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold (122–135 V), thereby shunting transient energy to ground. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage (<1.0 µA at VWM) and fast response time (<1 ns), critical for safeguarding sensitive downstream components against inductive switching spikes and ESD events.
The SMBJ110-E3/5B is rated for 150 °C maximum junction temperature and exhibits a thermal resistance of 100 °C/W (junction-to-ambient) on standard PCB pads. Its 100 A IFSM rating supports robust handling of 8.3 ms half-sine surge pulses, making it suitable for non-repetitive overvoltage events in DC power rails and low-frequency signal paths.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 110 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction begins; defines safe operating margin for 110 V nominal DC systems. |
| VBR (min/max) | 122 V / 135 V at 1 mA - Verified breakdown range ensures reliable triggering without premature conduction under normal operation. |
| VC @ IPPM | 177 V at 3.4 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge limits stress on protected ICs or MOSFETs to safe levels. |
| PPPM | 600 W - Peak pulse power dissipation capability with 0.01% duty cycle; sufficient for lightning-induced surges per IEC 61000-4-5. |
| IFSM | 100 A - Peak forward surge current rating for 8.3 ms half-sine wave; validates robustness against repetitive inrush or fault currents. |
| TJ max. | 150 °C - Maximum junction temperature enables reliable operation in enclosed industrial enclosures or high-ambient environments. |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Surface-mount outline with cathode band marking; compatible with J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 reflow profile (260 °C peak). |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), surface-mount, unidirectional configuration with cathode band marking on one end. Dimensions: 4.57 mm × 3.94 mm × 2.20 mm (L × W × H); terminals are matte tin-plated for solderability per J-STD-002.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry / transient return path | Connected to system ground or low-side reference; completes clamping path during overvoltage events. |
| Cathode | Reverse-biased terminal / protected line connection | Connected to the line being protected (e.g., +110 V rail); conducts when voltage exceeds VBR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables suppression of high-energy transients common in industrial motor drives and power supply inputs without thermal runaway. |
| Glass passivated chip junction | Ensures long-term stability of VBR and low leakage (<1.0 µA), critical for battery-backed or low-power sensor circuits. |
| MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity | Allows unlimited floor life and single-reflow processing at 260 °C peak, eliminating bake requirements for high-volume SMT assembly. |
| RoHS-compliant, matte tin plating | Guarantees solder joint reliability and compatibility with lead-free reflow profiles across global manufacturing sites. |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes VC overshoot during fast-rising transients, improving protection margin for 3.3 V or 5 V logic interfaces downstream. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110A-M3/5B | Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant variant with identical electrical specs and SMB package. | No functional difference; selected where halogen-free compliance is mandated by OEM environmental policy. | Direct drop-in replacement for SMBJ110-E3/5B where halogen-free materials are required. |
| SMBJ110AHM3_B/I | AEC-Q101 qualified, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant; same VWM, VBR, VC, and PPPM; differs only in qualification status and reel packaging (3200 pcs/reel, 13″ tape). | Required for automotive-grade designs needing AEC-Q101 validation; not intended for commercial-only applications. | Choose when automotive qualification and halogen-free compliance are both mandatory; otherwise, SMBJ110-E3/5B suffices for industrial use. |
Compared with SMBJ110-E3/5B, the M3/5B variant adds halogen-free compliance without altering electrical behavior, while the HM3_B/I version extends qualification to AEC-Q101 - enabling use in automotive body electronics but requiring verification of full system-level qualification scope.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMBJ110-E3/5B under surge conditions?
The SMBJ110-E3/5B has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 177 V at 3.4 A peak pulse current with a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per standard test conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during transient events - critical for ensuring downstream ICs remain within absolute maximum ratings.
Is SMBJ110-E3/5B suitable for automotive applications?
SMBJ110-E3/5B is a commercial-grade, RoHS-compliant part and is not AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive use, the SMBJ110AHM3_B/I variant - which carries AEC-Q101 qualification, halogen-free construction, and identical electrical specs - must be selected instead. SMBJ110-E3/5B remains appropriate for industrial and telecom applications where automotive qualification is not required.
What does the "E3/5B" suffix indicate in SMBJ110-E3/5B?
The "E3" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant, commercial-grade construction with matte tin-plated leads; "5B" specifies packaging in 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel, containing 3200 units per reel. This format supports high-speed pick-and-place assembly and aligns with J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 handling requirements without baking.
How does SMBJ110-E3/5B compare to bidirectional TVS diodes like SMBJ110CA?
SMBJ110-E3/5B is unidirectional and intended for DC line protection with defined polarity (cathode marked), whereas SMBJ110CA is bidirectional and used in AC-coupled or floating signal paths. The SMBJ110-E3/5B offers lower leakage and higher surge current capability in DC configurations, but cannot replace SMBJ110CA in symmetric transient environments without circuit redesign.
What PCB pad layout is recommended for optimal thermal performance of SMBJ110-E3/5B?
Vishay specifies mounting SMBJ110-E3/5B on 0.2" × 0.2" (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal to achieve rated 600 W pulse power and 100 °C/W thermal resistance. Reducing pad area degrades surge capability and increases junction temperature - verified in Figure 2 of the datasheet - so adherence to this layout is essential for full specification compliance.
