Product details
Overview
SMBJ22D-M3/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for robust overvoltage protection of DC power rails and signal lines. It features a 22 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 24.8–26.6 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 35.1 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 17.1 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 600 W peak pulse power rating with 10/1000 μs waveform - deployed in industrial sensor interfaces and automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ22D-M3/H datasheet, SMBJ22D-M3/H pinout, SMBJ22D-M3/H application, or SMBJ22D-M3/H equivalent, key selection criteria include verified clamping performance under 17.1 A surge, ±3.5 % VBR tolerance, M3-grade halogen-free RoHS-compliant construction, and compatibility with automated SMT placement on standard PCB pad layouts.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector: when reverse-biased voltage exceeds VBR (24.8–26.6 V), it avalanches to divert transient energy away from downstream ICs. Its low incremental surge resistance ensures minimal voltage overshoot during fast transients, while the 1.0 W power dissipation at 25 °C ambient enables stable operation without heatsinking in typical board-level deployments.
The device meets J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity and withstands 260 °C lead-free reflow peak temperature. With 0.5 μA max reverse leakage at 22 V and 150 °C max junction temperature, it supports long-term reliability in thermally constrained environments such as enclosed industrial controllers and automotive ECUs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM (Stand-off Voltage) | 22 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before conduction begins; defines safe DC rail margin for 24 V systems. |
| VBR (Breakdown Voltage) | 24.8–26.6 V at 1 mA - tight ±3.5 % tolerance ensures predictable turn-on across production lots. |
| VC (Clamping Voltage) | 35.1 V at 17.1 A IPPM - limits transient voltage seen by protected circuitry during 600 W surge events. |
| PPPM | 600 W (10/1000 μs waveform) - sustains high-energy ESD and lightning-induced surges without failure. |
| ID (Leakage Current) | ≤0.5 μA at 22 V - negligible standby power loss and no measurable impact on high-impedance sensor biasing. |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - industry-standard 2-pin surface-mount outline compatible with IPC-7351B footprint and pick-and-place automation. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - supports operation in under-hood automotive and industrial enclosures without derating below full rating. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), molded plastic case with matte tin-plated leads; cathode indicated by band on one end; compliant with UL 94 V-0 flammability rating and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Low-side reference terminal | Connected to ground or lowest potential node; completes clamping path during transient events. |
| Cathode (banded end) | High-side transient input terminal | Connected to protected line (e.g., 24 V supply rail); avalanche conduction initiates here when V > VBR. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±3.5 % VBR tolerance | Enables precise coordination with system overvoltage thresholds without margin stacking in safety-critical designs. |
| 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Withstands IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge (4 kV line-to-earth) without degradation in standard PCB layouts. |
| MSL Level 1, 260 °C peak reflow | Eliminates pre-baking requirement and supports single-pass lead-free assembly in high-volume manufacturing. |
| Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant (M3 suffix) | Fulfills EU ELV and JEDEC environmental mandates for automotive and industrial OEM programs. |
| 0.5 μA max ID at VWM | Preserves accuracy in precision analog front-ends and battery-powered sensor nodes with microamp-level quiescent budgets. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ22A-M3/H | Bidirectional variant; symmetric VBR (24.8–26.6 V) and VC (35.1 V) in both polarities; same PPPM and package. | Required where AC-coupled or dual-polarity signal lines (e.g., RS-485, USB D+/D−) need protection without polarity constraints. | Select SMBJ22A-M3/H only if bidirectional clamping is explicitly required; SMBJ22D-M3/H provides lower leakage and tighter system margin for DC rails. |
| SMCJ22A | Larger SMC (DO-214AB) package; same electrical specs but higher thermal mass (RθJA = 40 °C/W vs. 125 °C/W) and 1500 W PPPM rating. | Suitable for higher-energy surge environments (e.g., outdoor telecom cabinets) where PCB space allows larger footprint. | Choose SMCJ22A only when 1500 W surge capability is mandated and layout permits SMC footprint; SMBJ22D-M3/H optimizes cost and density for 600 W-class protection. |
Compared with SMBJ22A-M3/H, the SMBJ22D-M3/H offers lower leakage and simplified polarity routing for DC rails; versus SMCJ22A, it trades surge headroom for compact SMB footprint and lower assembly cost in space-constrained consumer and industrial boards.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMBJ22D-M3/H at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMBJ22D-M3/H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 35.1 V at its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 17.1 A, measured using the standardized 10/1000 μs double-exponential surge waveform. This value defines the highest voltage the protected circuit will experience during a full 600 W transient event, making SMBJ22D-M3/H suitable for safeguarding 24 V systems where downstream ICs require strict overvoltage limits.
Is SMBJ22D-M3/H compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, SMBJ22D-M3/H is qualified to MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 and supports peak reflow temperatures up to 260 °C, fully compliant with standard lead-free soldering profiles. Its matte tin-plated terminals meet J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability requirements, and the M3 suffix confirms halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction - ensuring reliable joint formation without voiding or dewetting in high-throughput SMT lines.
How does the VBR tolerance of SMBJ22D-M3/H affect system-level surge coordination?
The SMBJ22D-M3/H features a tight ±3.5 % breakdown voltage tolerance (24.8–26.6 V), which minimizes variation in turn-on threshold across production units. This enables precise coordination with upstream fuses and downstream IC absolute maximum ratings - for example, ensuring clamping occurs well below the 40 V drain-source rating of protected MOSFETs while maintaining sufficient margin above the 22 V stand-off voltage to avoid false triggering during normal 24 V rail ripple.
Can SMBJ22D-M3/H be used in bidirectional signal line protection?
No - SMBJ22D-M3/H is a unidirectional TVS diode, intended for DC rail or single-polarity signal protection. For bidirectional applications like RS-485, CAN, or AC-coupled interfaces, the bidirectional variant SMBJ22A-M3/H must be used instead. Using SMBJ22D-M3/H on a bidirectional line would result in forward conduction during negative half-cycles, causing malfunction or damage; its cathode band clearly indicates polarity-sensitive installation.
What is the thermal resistance of SMBJ22D-M3/H under standard PCB mounting conditions?
Under standard mounting on the minimum recommended copper pad layout, SMBJ22D-M3/H exhibits a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 125 °C/W. This value determines steady-state temperature rise: at 1.0 W power dissipation (its rated PD at 25 °C ambient), junction temperature rises ~125 °C above ambient - confirming why SMBJ22D-M3/H is rated for 150 °C max TJ and requires no additional heatsinking in typical 24 V industrial applications with moderate duty cycles.
