Product details
Overview
SMBJ58-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 58 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 64.4–71.2 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 93.6 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 6.4 A peak pulse current, and 600 W peak pulse power dissipation with 10/1000 µs waveform - used to protect MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor interfaces in industrial power supplies and telecom line cards.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ58-E3/5B datasheet, SMBJ58-E3/5B pinout, SMBJ58-E3/5B application, or SMBJ58-E3/5B equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 1.0 µA max reverse leakage at VWM, 150 °C max junction temperature, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated leads suitable for automated SMT assembly.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping protection device that enters avalanche conduction when transient voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold. Its low incremental surge resistance and fast response time (<1 ns) enable effective suppression of ESD, lightning-induced surges, and inductive switching spikes on DC rails and low-speed signal paths.
The SMBJ58-E3/5B uses a glass-passivated silicon junction housed in an SMB (DO-214AA) thermally optimized package with 100 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. It is rated for repetitive 0.01% duty cycle pulses and meets MSL level 1 per J-STD-020 with 260 °C peak reflow profile compatibility.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 58 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins |
| VBR (min/max) | 64.4 V / 71.2 V at 1 mA - guaranteed avalanche onset range under standardized test conditions |
| VC @ IPPM | 93.6 V at 6.4 A - clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge, defining worst-case overvoltage seen by protected circuit |
| PPPM | 600 W - peak pulse power handling capability with standard 10/1000 µs waveform |
| IPPM | 6.4 A - maximum non-repetitive peak pulse current corresponding to VC = 93.6 V |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ58A-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 material substitution when halogen-free certification is required; same layout and thermal performance |
| SMCJ58A-E3/2A | Higher 1500 W PPPM, larger SMC (DO-214AB) package, 100 A IFSM, same VWM/VC ratings | Used where higher surge endurance or higher forward surge current is needed, e.g., in solar charge controller inputs | Choose when system-level surge testing exceeds 600 W requirements; requires PCB footprint change |
Compared with SMBJ58-E3/5B, the M3/5B variant offers identical protection performance with halogen-free construction, while the SMCJ58A-E3/2A provides double the pulse power rating in a larger package - enabling design flexibility for varying surge severity and board space constraints.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range of SMBJ58-E3/5B?
The SMBJ58-E3/5B has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 64.4 V to 71.2 V at 1 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards. This range ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports reliable overvoltage margining in 58 V nominal systems. The SMBJ58-E3/5B maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C.
Is SMBJ58-E3/5B suitable for automotive applications?
The SMBJ58-E3/5B is a commercial-grade, RoHS-compliant part and is not AEC-Q101 qualified. For automotive use, Vishay offers the SMBJ58HE3_B variant (AEC-Q101 qualified, RoHS-compliant). The SMBJ58-E3/5B may be used in non-safety-critical automotive subsystems only if validated per customer qualification requirements - but SMBJ58-E3/5B itself carries no automotive qualification.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of SMBJ58-E3/5B under surge conditions?
The SMBJ58-E3/5B exhibits a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 93.6 V at 6.4 A peak pulse current with a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value represents the worst-case voltage imposed on the protected circuit during standardized surge testing and is critical for ensuring downstream components remain within their absolute maximum ratings. The SMBJ58-E3/5B achieves this clamping performance with low dynamic impedance.
Does SMBJ58-E3/5B have bidirectional capability?
No, SMBJ58-E3/5B is a unidirectional TVS diode, indicated by the "A" suffix and cathode band marking. Bidirectional variants use the "CA" suffix (e.g., SMBJ58CA). The SMBJ58-E3/5B conducts only during reverse overvoltage events and blocks forward current above ~3.5 V; it must be oriented with cathode toward the protected line.
What packaging format does SMBJ58-E3/5B ship in?
SMBJ58-E3/5B ships in 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel packaging, with a base quantity of 3200 units per reel (package code "5B"). This format is optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly and complies with EIA-481-D standards. The SMBJ58-E3/5B reel includes moisture barrier bagging per MSL Level 1 requirements.
