Product details
Overview
SMBJ130AHM3/I from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in the SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for robust overvoltage protection of sensitive electronics. It features a 130 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 144–159 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, and clamps transients up to 209 A (10/1000 µs) at 209 V, making it suitable for protecting power rails and signal lines in industrial motor drives and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ130AHM3/I datasheet, SMBJ130AHM3/I pinout, SMBJ130AHM3/I application, or SMBJ130AHM3/I equivalent, this device delivers verified 600 W peak pulse power, low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.38), and AEC-Q101 qualification-critical for automotive-grade surge resilience, high-reliability industrial interfaces, and IEC 61000-4-5 compliant designs.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a unidirectional clamping device with cathode-band polarity marking, leveraging a glass-passivated silicon junction for stable avalanche behavior under repetitive surge events. Its thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W) and junction temperature limit (TJ = 150 °C) define its derating envelope for continuous operation in ambient temperatures up to +85 °C on standard PCB copper pads.
The SMBJ130AHM3/I responds in <1 ps to fast-rising transients and maintains ≤1.0 µA reverse leakage at VWM, ensuring minimal standby power impact. Its 10/1000 µs waveform rating aligns with IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 immunity testing, and its halogen-free, RoHS-compliant HM3 suffix confirms compliance with JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94 V-0 molding compound requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 130 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; sets safe margin above nominal 110–120 V DC bus rails. |
| VBR (min/max) | 144 V / 159 V at 1 mA - Confirmed breakdown range ensures predictable turn-on during surges without premature conduction. |
| VC @ IPPM | 209 V - Clamped voltage at 209 A peak pulse current; defines worst-case voltage seen by protected ICs during surge. |
| PPPM | 600 W - Peak pulse power handling per 10/1000 µs waveform; supports repeated lightning-induced transients in telecom infrastructure. |
| IFSM | 100 A - Non-repetitive forward surge current rating (8.3 ms half-sine); enables survival of inductive switch-off events in relay/motor control. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Maximum junction temperature; allows operation in sealed enclosures with limited airflow and high ambient conditions. |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Standardized surface-mount outline with 5.21 mm × 4.06 mm footprint and 2.20 mm height; compatible with automated pick-and-place. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), unidirectional configuration with cathode band marking on one end. Matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 solderability and JESD22-B102 thermal shock standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Low-side reference terminal | Connected to ground or lowest potential node; forms return path during clamping conduction. |
| Cathode | High-side surge input terminal | Connected to protected line (e.g., 130 V rail); avalanche conduction initiates here when VAK exceeds VBR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables single-device protection against IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV/2 Ω) surges without external series impedance. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified (HM3 suffix) | Validated for automotive powertrain and body electronics where reliability across -40 °C to +125 °C ambient is mandatory. |
| Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant | Meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements and EU Directive 2011/65/EU for sustainable manufacturing. |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast transients (<1 ns rise time), preserving timing margins in high-speed digital interfaces. |
| MSL Level 1 (260 °C peak reflow) | Supports standard lead-free SMT assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns or baking requirements. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ130A-M3/5B | Same electrical specs but commercial-grade (non-AEC-Q101); M3 suffix denotes halogen-free RoHS compliance only. | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for industrial/commercial equipment where AEC-Q101 is not mandated. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive reliability requirements and full lifecycle traceability is not required. |
| SAC130 | Lower 600 W PPPM but TO-220AC package; higher RθJA (50 °C/W) requires heatsinking for same surge duty cycle. | Used in high-power legacy designs with through-hole assembly; incompatible with SMT-only production lines. | Choose only if existing board layout uses TO-220 footprints and thermal management infrastructure is already in place. |
Compared with SMBJ130A-M3/5B, the SMBJ130AHM3/I adds AEC-Q101 validation and enhanced whisker resistance, while SAC130 trades SMT compatibility for higher thermal mass-making SMBJ130AHM3/I optimal for new automotive and high-density industrial designs requiring zero-layout change and guaranteed qualification.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMBJ130AHM3/I at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMBJ130AHM3/I clamps to a maximum of 209 V when subjected to its rated 209 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform). This value is measured under standardized test conditions with 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads per terminal and represents the upper bound of voltage imposed on protected circuitry during worst-case surge events. The SMBJ130AHM3/I achieves this clamping performance while maintaining low dynamic impedance, ensuring effective energy diversion away from downstream ICs.
Is SMBJ130AHM3/I suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SMBJ130AHM3/I is AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by its HM3 suffix and Vishay documentation. It meets rigorous stress tests including temperature cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock-making it appropriate for under-hood and cabin-mounted automotive electronics such as body control modules, lighting drivers, and infotainment power supplies. The SMBJ130AHM3/I also complies with JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94 V-0 flammability standards required for automotive use.
How does the HM3 suffix differ from the M3 suffix in Vishay SMBJ part numbering?
The HM3 suffix in SMBJ130AHM3/I indicates halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction *plus* AEC-Q101 qualification, whereas M3 denotes halogen-free and RoHS compliance only-without automotive qualification. Both share identical electrical parameters and package dimensions, but HM3 parts undergo additional reliability screening per AEC-Q101 Rev D, including failure analysis and lot traceability protocols required for Tier 1 automotive suppliers. The SMBJ130AHM3/I thus provides dual assurance of environmental compliance and automotive-grade robustness.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SMBJ130AHM3/I at its stand-off voltage?
At its 130 V stand-off voltage (VWM), the SMBJ130AHM3/I exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (ID) of 1.0 µA at 25 °C, as specified in Vishay's official datasheet. This ultra-low leakage ensures negligible power loss in always-on protection circuits and prevents unintended loading of high-impedance sensor inputs or precision reference nodes. The SMBJ130AHM3/I maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range (-55 °C to +150 °C), with minor increase only at elevated junction temperatures.
Can SMBJ130AHM3/I be used in bidirectional protection configurations?
No, SMBJ130AHM3/I is strictly a unidirectional TVS diode, as indicated by its "A" suffix and cathode-band marking. Bidirectional operation requires the "CA" suffix (e.g., SMBJ130CA), which internally connects two opposing diodes. Using SMBJ130AHM3/I in reverse-biased configurations risks permanent damage due to lack of reverse avalanche capability. For bidirectional protection needs, select SMBJ130CA or verify alternate dual-diode packages-never substitute SMBJ130AHM3/I in CA-designated circuits.
