Product details
Overview
SMBJ64AHE3_A/H 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 64 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 71.1–78.6 V breakdown voltage (VBR) at 1 mA, 103 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 5.8 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs waveform), used to protect MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor interfaces in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ64AHE3_A/H datasheet, SMBJ64AHE3_A/H pinout, SMBJ64AHE3_A/H application, or SMBJ64AHE3_A/H equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance (RθJA = 100 °C/W), junction temperature range (–55 to +150 °C), and compliance with UL 497B surge protector classification.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping protection device in series with sensitive downstream circuitry, conducting only when reverse voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable leakage performance, while low incremental surge resistance enables effective energy diversion during transient events such as inductive load switching or ESD.
The SMBJ64AHE3_A/H is rated for 600 W peak pulse power under standardized 10/1000 μs waveform conditions, with derating above 25 °C ambient per Fig. 2. Its 1.0 μA max reverse leakage at 64 V stand-off supports low-power system integrity, and it meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with 260 °C reflow peak temperature tolerance.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMBJ64AHE3_A/H at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMBJ64AHE3_A/H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 103 V at its specified peak pulse current (IPPM) of 5.8 A under the 10/1000 μs waveform condition. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The SMBJ64AHE3_A/H maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range of –55 to +150 °C.
Is SMBJ64AHE3_A/H qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, SMBJ64AHE3_A/H is AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed by Vishay's ordering code suffix "HE3" and documentation in the 88392 datasheet. This qualification covers stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD, making SMBJ64AHE3_A/H suitable for automotive body electronics, infotainment power rails, and sensor interfaces where reliability under vibration and thermal cycling is mandatory.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for SMBJ64AHE3_A/H at its stand-off voltage?
The SMBJ64AHE3_A/H exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (ID) of 1.0 μA at its 64 V stand-off voltage (VWM), tested at 25 °C ambient. This low leakage preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor circuits and extends battery life in always-on systems. Leakage remains within specification up to +150 °C junction temperature, supporting use in thermally demanding enclosures.
Does SMBJ64AHE3_A/H have a bidirectional variant?
No, SMBJ64AHE3_A/H is strictly unidirectional, indicated by the "A" suffix and cathode band marking. For bidirectional operation at the same voltage rating, the equivalent part is SMBJ64CAHE3_A/H (with "CA" suffix), which provides symmetrical clamping in both polarities and is used in AC-coupled or differential signal lines where polarity reversal may occur.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for SMBJ64AHE3_A/H?
The SMBJ64AHE3_A/H has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 100 °C/W when mounted on the minimum recommended 0.2" × 0.2" (5.0 mm × 5.0 mm) copper pads per terminal. This value assumes no additional heatsinking and defines the temperature rise per watt of steady-state power dissipation. For continuous operation near its 5.0 W power rating, PCB layout must allocate sufficient copper area to maintain junction temperature below +150 °C.
