Product details
Overview
SMBJ130C-E3/5B from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, rated for 130 V standoff voltage (VWM), 144–159 V breakdown voltage (VBR), and 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs). It clamps transients to ≤209 V at 2.9 A peak surge current and is used for overvoltage protection of MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor signal lines in industrial power supplies and telecom interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ130C-E3/5B datasheet, SMBJ130C-E3/5B pinout, SMBJ130C-E3/5B application, or SMBJ130C-E3/5B equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 130 V stand-off rating, 209 V clamping voltage at rated IPPM, RoHS-compliant matte tin terminations, and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity per J-STD-020.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping device in parallel with protected circuitry, entering avalanche conduction when reverse voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable VBR tolerance (±5%) and low incremental surge resistance for consistent clamping under repetitive transients.
Designed for transient suppression per IEC 61000-4-5 (surge) and IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD), it delivers 600 W peak pulse power with 10/1000 µs waveform and supports 100 A non-repetitive forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine). Thermal resistance is 100 °C/W junction-to-ambient on standard 0.2" × 0.2" copper pads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 130 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins |
| VBR (min/max) | 144 V / 159 V - Breakdown occurs within this range at 1 mA test current; defines turn-on threshold |
| VC @ IPPM | 209 V - Clamped voltage across device at 2.9 A peak pulse current; determines maximum stress on downstream IC |
| PPPM | 600 W - Peak transient energy absorption capability with 10/1000 µs waveform; validates surge robustness |
| ID @ VWM | 1.0 µA - Reverse leakage at 130 V; ensures minimal standby power loss and signal integrity |
| TJ max. | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables operation in high-ambient industrial environments |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Surface-mount outline with 5.59 mm max length; compatible with automated pick-and-place |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads solderable per J-STD-002. Cathode indicated by band marking on body; anode is unmarked end.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (banded end) | Reverse-biased terminal during normal operation | Connected to higher-potential rail (e.g., VBUS or signal line); conducts during overvoltage events |
| Anode (unbanded end) | Reference/ground return path | Typically tied to system ground or low-side reference; completes clamping current path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Supports robust protection against lightning-induced surges and inductive switching transients in industrial equipment |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.40) | Minimizes overvoltage overshoot during clamping, reducing risk of damage to downstream 130 V-rated components |
| MSL Level 1 (260 °C peak reflow) | Enables single-pass lead-free reflow assembly without moisture-related popcorn failure |
| Glass passivated junction | Ensures long-term stability of VBR and low leakage across temperature and lifetime |
| RoHS-compliant, halogen-free option available | Meets environmental compliance requirements for commercial and industrial end equipment |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Telecom Power Interfaces |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protection of gate drivers and bus voltage sensing circuits against inductive kickback from IGBT/MOSFET switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed across DC bus or gate-source terminals to clamp voltage spikes before they reach control ICs. Use Value: Limits transient voltage to ≤209 V, preserving gate oxide integrity of 150 V-rated SiC MOSFET drivers and enabling reliable operation at 130 V nominal bus. |
Use Scenario: Surge suppression on -48 V telecom power feed lines exposed to lightning-induced common-mode transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff-rated TVS connected between power rail and chassis ground to shunt surge energy away from DC-DC converters. Use Value: Withstands 600 W pulses while maintaining <1.0 µA leakage at -48 V, preventing false triggering and ensuring uninterrupted service during transient events. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Industrial Sensor Signal Conditioning |
Use Scenario: Input protection for LIN bus transceivers and microcontroller I/O pins subjected to load dump and ISO 7637-2 pulses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional suppressor installed at connector entry point to absorb fast-rising transients before reaching AEC-Q100 qualified ICs. Use Value: Fast response time and 150 °C max junction temperature support under-hood deployment; E3 suffix confirms RoHS compliance for automotive supply chain traceability. |
Use Scenario: Protection of analog front-end inputs (e.g., 4–20 mA loop receivers, RTD bridges) from ESD and cable discharge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-leakage TVS placed across differential input pins to prevent latch-up or offset shift in precision amplifiers. Use Value: 1.0 µA max reverse leakage at 130 V ensures <1 µV error contribution in 10 kΩ input impedance stages, preserving measurement accuracy. |
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-E3/5B | Unidirectional, identical VWM (130 V), same SMB package and 600 W rating; differs only in marking code (no "C" suffix) | No functional difference; "C" suffix denotes Vishay's internal revision or tape/reel configuration variant, not electrical distinction | Select SMBJ130C-E3/5B when matching documented BOMs specifying the "C" suffix; otherwise SMBJ130A-E3/5B is electrically interchangeable |
| SMCJ130A-E3/57T | Same VWM (130 V) and unidirectional polarity but in larger SMC (DO-214AB) package; 1500 W peak power rating | Higher power handling suits applications with >600 W surge threats; requires larger PCB footprint and different pad layout | Choose SMCJ130A-E3/57T only if system-level surge testing exceeds 600 W; otherwise SMBJ130C-E3/5B offers optimal size/power balance |
Compared with SMBJ130A-E3/5B, the SMBJ130C-E3/5B offers identical electrical performance in the same SMB footprint; versus SMCJ130A-E3/57T, it trades 2.5× peak power for 30% smaller board area and lower thermal mass-critical for space-constrained industrial sensors and telecom line cards.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range for SMBJ130C-E3/5B?
The SMBJ130C-E3/5B has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 144 V to 159 V at 1 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This tight ±5% tolerance ensures predictable turn-on behavior during overvoltage events and supports precise system-level margining for 130 V nominal rails.
Is SMBJ130C-E3/5B suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, SMBJ130C-E3/5B is a unidirectional TVS diode, indicated by the absence of "CA" suffix. It conducts only in reverse bias above VBR and blocks forward current like a standard diode. For bidirectional protection, use SMBJ130CA-E3/5B, which clamps symmetrically in both polarities.
What does the "E3/5B" suffix mean in SMBJ130C-E3/5B?
The "E3" denotes RoHS-compliant, commercial-grade construction with matte tin terminations; "5B" specifies packaging in 13-inch diameter tape-and-reel format with 3200 units per reel. This suffix confirms compliance with JEDEC J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
How does SMBJ130C-E3/5B perform under elevated ambient temperatures?
SMBJ130C-E3/5B derates linearly above 25 °C ambient: its peak pulse power drops to ~400 W at 75 °C and ~200 W at 125 °C per Figure 2 of datasheet 88392. Designers must verify clamping performance at worst-case operating temperature using the published derating curve.
Can SMBJ130C-E3/5B replace SMBJ130A-E3/5B in existing designs?
Yes-SMBJ130C-E3/5B and SMBJ130A-E3/5B share identical electrical specifications, SMB package dimensions, and thermal characteristics. The "C" suffix reflects Vishay's internal revision or tape/reel configuration; no layout or schematic changes are required for substitution.
