Product details
Overview
SMCJ110AH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional 1500W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-214AB (SMC) package, with 110V working stand-off voltage (VWM), 122–135V breakdown voltage (VBR), and 177V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 8.9A peak pulse current. It delivers AEC-Q101 qualification and meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/2b/3a/3b for automotive load-dump and ESD protection in power rails.
For engineers reviewing the SMCJ110AH datasheet, SMCJ110AH pinout, SMCJ110AH application, or SMCJ110AH equivalent, this device is selected for high-energy transient suppression in 12V/24V/48V automotive ECUs, industrial PLC I/O modules, and telecom DC power inputs where fast response (<1.0ps), low leakage (<1µA @ 110V), and robust 150°C junction operation are required.
Technical Context
The SMCJ110AH uses a glass-passivated silicon junction optimized for unidirectional surge clamping, with thermal resistance RθJC = 10°C/W enabling efficient heat transfer to PCB copper. Its clamping behavior follows the 10/1000µs standard waveform per IEC 61000-4-5 and ANSI/IEEE C62.35, delivering stable VC under repetitive transients when derated above 25°C ambient per Fig.2.
Designed for surface-mount automated placement, the device features matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Polarity is marked by cathode band; moisture sensitivity level is J-STD-020 Level 1, eliminating bake requirements prior to reflow.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VWM | 110 V - Maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping begins; defines safe DC rail margin for 12V/24V/48V systems. |
| VBR min/max | 122 V / 135 V @ IT = 1 mA - Confirmed breakdown threshold range ensures reliable turn-on during overvoltage events without premature conduction. |
| VC @ IPPM | 177 V @ 8.9 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000µs surge; limits downstream IC stress to <180V in 110V nominal circuits. |
| PPK | 1500 W - Peak pulse power rating at TA = 25°C; supports high-energy transients like ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a (load dump). |
| IR @ VWM | <1 µA - Ultra-low reverse leakage preserves system efficiency and prevents false triggering in high-impedance sensing paths. |
| TJ max | +150 °C - Enables operation in under-hood automotive environments and sealed industrial enclosures without thermal shutdown. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-214AB (SMC), surface-mount, single-diode configuration with cathode band marking. Case meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating; weight ≈ 0.210 g.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Input/Line side | Connected to protected line (e.g., battery feed); conducts forward surge current during clamping. |
| Cathode | Output/Load side | Connected to ground or low-impedance return path; defines unidirectional clamping polarity via marked band. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ110AH (Bourns) | Same VWM (110V), lower PPK (600W), SMB package (smaller footprint, higher RθJA = 75°C/W) | Limited to lower-energy transients; unsuitable for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load dump | Select SMCJ110AH when >1000W surge handling and automotive-grade thermal performance are required. |
| 1.5KE110A (ON Semiconductor) | Same VWM (110V), through-hole DO-201 package, PPK = 1500W, but slower response (>1ns) and no AEC-Q101 qualification | Not suitable for automated SMT assembly or under-hood automotive use due to leaded construction and qualification gap | Choose SMCJ110AH for SMT production, AEC-Q101 compliance, and sub-nanosecond response in space-constrained designs. |
Compared with SMBJ110AH and 1.5KE110A, the SMCJ110AH uniquely combines 1500W SMT capability, AEC-Q101 qualification, and <1.0ps response in DO-214AB - making it the only option among the three qualified for high-reliability automotive power rail protection requiring zero layout change from legacy SMC footprints.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMCJ110AH under a 10/1000µs surge?
The SMCJ110AH has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 177 V when subjected to an 8.9 A peak pulse current with a 10/1000µs waveform. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and ensures downstream components see no more than 177 V during standardized surge events, critical for protecting 110V-rated or lower-voltage circuitry.
Is SMCJ110AH suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, SMCJ110AH is a unidirectional TVS diode intended for DC line-to-ground clamping only. For bidirectional protection, Taiwan Semiconductor offers the SMCJ110CAH variant with CH or CAH suffix; the "H" suffix in SMCJ110AH explicitly denotes unidirectional configuration with cathode band marking.
Does SMCJ110AH require pre-reflow baking?
No, SMCJ110AH has a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of Level 1 per J-STD-020, meaning it is not moisture-sensitive and can be stored indefinitely at ambient conditions without baking prior to reflow soldering - simplifying manufacturing logistics and reducing process risk.
What is the maximum steady-state power dissipation of SMCJ110AH?
The SMCJ110AH has a steady-state power dissipation (PD) rating of 5 W at TA = 25°C. This value applies only to continuous DC or low-frequency reverse bias conditions - not to transient events - and must be thermally managed using adequate PCB copper area to maintain TJ ≤ 150°C.
How does SMCJ110AH compare to SMCJ110H in terms of breakdown voltage tolerance?
The SMCJ110AH has a tighter VBR range of 122–135 V (min/max) versus SMCJ110H's 122–149 V, achieved by tighter binning during production. This narrower spread improves design margin predictability in precision clamping applications where consistent turn-on behavior is critical across production lots.
