Product details
Overview
SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a bidirectional surface-mount Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in SMB (DO-214AA) package, designed for clamping voltage transients on signal and power lines. It features a 64 V standoff voltage (VWM), 71.1–78.6 V breakdown range (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 in industrial sensor interface protection and automotive ECU input conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H datasheet, SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H pinout, SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H application, or SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H equivalent, this device is selected for robust bidirectional surge suppression in 24 V and 48 V DC systems where low clamping voltage, fast response (<1 ns), and AEC-Q101 qualification are required.
Technical Context
This TVS operates symmetrically in both directions due to its bidirectional construction, enabling protection of AC-coupled or differential signal paths without polarity constraints. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable breakdown characteristics and low leakage (<1 µA at 64 V), while the 20 °C/W junction-to-lead thermal resistance supports reliable energy dissipation under repetitive surge conditions.
The device complies with ANSI/IEEE C62.35 for transient suppressor definitions and meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with 260 °C reflow peak. Its AEC-Q101 qualification confirms suitability for automotive under-hood and body electronics applications requiring extended temperature operation from –55 °C to +150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 64 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; defines safe working margin for 24 V/48 V rail protection. |
| VBR min/max | 71.1 V / 78.6 V at 1 mA - Confirmed breakdown threshold range; ensures predictable turn-on during overvoltage events. |
| VC @ IPPM | 103 V at 5.8 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 µs surge; limits downstream IC stress to <103 V under rated 600 W pulse. |
| PPPM | 600 W - Peak pulse power handling with standard 10/1000 µs waveform; supports IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge immunity testing. |
| ID @ VWM | ≤1.0 µA - Reverse leakage at rated standoff voltage; minimizes standby power loss and avoids false triggering in high-impedance circuits. |
| TJ max | +150 °C - Maximum junction temperature; enables deployment in engine control units and industrial motor drives with elevated ambient heat. |
| Package | SMB (DO-214AA) - Standardized surface-mount outline with 5.59 mm × 4.06 mm footprint; compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow soldering. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SMB (DO-214AA), bidirectional configuration - no polarity marking; symmetrical terminals function as interchangeable anode/cathode pair.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ64CA-M3/52 | Same electrical specs and SMB package; halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, commercial grade (non-AEC-Q101). | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for industrial/commercial designs where AEC-Q101 is not mandated. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification requirements and full traceability is not needed. |
| SMCJ64CAHE3_A/H | Higher power rating (1500 W), larger SMC (DO-214AB) package; identical VWM, VBR, and VC specs. | Used where higher surge repetition rate or longer pulse duration (e.g., IEC 61000-4-5 1.2/50 µs + 8/20 µs combo wave) is expected. | Choose when system-level surge testing exceeds 600 W capability or board layout allows larger footprint for enhanced thermal margin. |
Compared with SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H, SMBJ64CA-M3/52 offers identical protection performance without automotive qualification, while SMCJ64CAHE3_A/H provides 2.5× higher pulse power in a larger package - selection depends on qualification needs and surge test profile severity.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 103 V at 5.8 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and confirmed in Vishay's datasheet revision 09-Jan-2024, ensuring predictable overvoltage limiting for downstream circuitry during surge events. The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H maintains this clamping performance across its specified operating temperature range.
Is SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H is AEC-Q101 qualified, as indicated by the "HE3" suffix and confirmed in Vishay's ordering information table. It is rated for operation from –55 °C to +150 °C and validated for automotive reliability stresses including temperature cycling and humidity bias. The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H is commonly deployed in body control modules, infotainment power supplies, and sensor front-ends where certified surge protection is mandatory.
How does the bidirectional design of SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H affect its circuit placement?
The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H has no polarity marking and functions identically in both directions, allowing placement across any two nodes requiring symmetrical transient suppression - such as differential signal lines, AC-coupled interfaces, or ungrounded power rails. Unlike unidirectional TVS diodes, the SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H eliminates orientation errors during assembly and simplifies layout for balanced protection schemes without requiring cathode alignment checks.
What is the maximum reverse leakage current for SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H at its standoff voltage?
The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (ID) of 1.0 µA at its 64 V standoff voltage (VWM), measured at TA = 25 °C. This low leakage preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor circuits and minimizes standby power loss in battery-operated systems. The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range, supported by glass passivation technology.
Does SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H meet JEDEC moisture sensitivity level requirements?
Yes, SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020, with a maximum peak reflow temperature of 260 °C. This allows indefinite floor life and compatibility with standard lead-free reflow profiles without baking or special handling. The SMBJ64CAHE3_B/H's MSL Level 1 rating is documented in the Mechanical Data section of Vishay's datasheet 88392 and verified through qualification testing.
