Product details
Overview
SMF100AT1G from onsemi is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in SOD−123FL package, designed for overvoltage protection of sensitive electronics. It features a 100 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), 123 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 1.1 A peak pulse current (IPP), 200 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), <1 ns response time, and IEC61000−4−2 Level 4 ESD rating (>16 kV HBM). It is used in DC power rails of industrial power supplies and telecom interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SMF100AT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include clamping voltage margin relative to system operating voltage, surge current handling under IEC 61000-4-4 (40 A), thermal derating on FR-4 PCBs, and compatibility with automated SMT reflow at 260°C.
Technical Context
This TVS operates in avalanche breakdown mode during transients, providing low-impedance shunting above its VRWM of 100 V. Its zener-based structure ensures stable clamping up to 123 V at IPP = 1.1 A, with leakage current ≤1 µA at VRWM and forward voltage ≤1.25 V at 200 mA.
The device uses a thermoset plastic SOD−123FL package qualified to MSL 1, with 100% matte tin lead finish and 26 °C/W junction-to-cathode thermal resistance. It meets IEC61000−4−2 (±8 kV contact / ±15 kV air) and IEC61000−4−4 (40 A, 5/50 ns) immunity standards without external circuitry.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Input Protection | Telecom Interface Surge Suppression |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 24–48 V DC input stage of DIN-rail mounted PLC power modules exposed to lightning-induced surges on field wiring. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between input rail and chassis ground to clamp induced transients before they reach upstream DC/DC controllers. Use Value: 123 V clamping ensures MOSFET gate drivers and PWM ICs remain below absolute maximum ratings during 1 kV/500 A surge events. | Use Scenario: RS-485 transceiver lines in outdoor base station backhaul units subject to repeated ESD and EFT exposure. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Line-side TVS on A/B differential pairs, referenced to signal ground, absorbing common-mode surges while preserving signal integrity. Use Value: Sub-1 ns response prevents data corruption during 8 kV contact ESD strikes, maintaining >10 Mbps communication uptime. |
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) Power Rail | USB-C Port Overvoltage Protection |
Use Scenario: 12 V battery-supplied microcontroller power domain in BCMs where load dump transients exceed 100 V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary clamping device on main VDD rail, positioned upstream of LDO regulators to prevent latch-up or burnout. Use Value: 200 W peak power rating sustains multiple 10/1000 µs load-dump pulses without parameter shift or failure. | Use Scenario: VBUS line protection in portable medical monitors with USB-C host functionality, requiring robust ESD immunity. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS between USB-C VBUS and system ground, sized to clamp 20 V overshoot from hot-plug events. Use Value: 100 V VRWM provides 20 % margin above 5 V nominal + 20 % tolerance, preventing false triggering during normal operation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ100A | Same VRWM (100 V) and VC (123 V), but SMA package (larger footprint, higher Ppk = 400 W) | Better suited for higher-energy surges; requires larger PCB area and different stencil design | Select SMAJ100A only if system-level testing shows 200 W insufficient for worst-case surge profiles |
| 1.5SMC100A | Higher Ppk (1500 W), DO-214AB package, same VRWM/VC specs, but 2.5× larger footprint and 3× higher thermal mass | Used in AC mains input stages or high-power motor drives where energy dissipation dominates size constraints | Choose 1.5SMC100A when protecting 48 V DC bus systems with >500 J surge energy requirements |
Compared with SMAJ100A and 1.5SMC100A, SMF100AT1G delivers identical clamping performance in a space-constrained SOD−123FL package optimized for high-density SMT layouts, making it preferred for portable and board-level protection where footprint and reflow compatibility are critical.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMF100AT1G at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMF100AT1G has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 123 V at its peak pulse current (IPP) of 1.1 A under the standardized 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed across temperature and lifetime, ensuring predictable protection margins for downstream components in the SMF100AT1G-protected circuit.
Is SMF100AT1G suitable for protecting RS-485 communication lines?
Yes, SMF100AT1G is suitable for RS-485 line protection when applied differentially across A/B lines with appropriate grounding. Its 100 V VRWM provides headroom above typical RS-485 common-mode ranges (±7 V to ±15 V), and its <1 ns response time prevents data corruption during ESD events-key for reliable SMF100AT1G deployment in industrial networks.
Does SMF100AT1G meet IEC61000−4−2 and IEC61000−4−4 standards?
Yes, SMF100AT1G is rated for IEC61000−4−2 Level 4 (±8 kV contact, ±15 kV air) and IEC61000−4−4 (40 A, 5/50 ns), as confirmed in the official onsemi datasheet. These certifications validate its use in SMF100AT1G-based designs targeting international EMC compliance without additional external filtering.
What is the thermal resistance of SMF100AT1G, and how does it affect PCB layout?
SMF100AT1G has a junction-to-cathode thermal resistance (RθJcathode) of 26 °C/W and junction-to-ambient (RθJA) of 325 °C/W on FR-4 with minimum recommended pad size. To maintain reliability under repeated surges, designers must follow the SOD−123FL footprint guidelines in the SMF100AT1G datasheet and avoid excessive copper isolation around the cathode pad.
Can SMF100AT1G be used in automotive applications such as body control modules?
Yes, SMF100AT1G is qualified for automotive environments with −55 °C to +150 °C operating temperature range and AEC-Q101 stress testing alignment. Its 100 V VRWM and 123 V clamping make it appropriate for 12 V battery rail protection in body control modules, especially where load dump transients must be limited below IC absolute maximum ratings in the SMF100AT1G-protected subsystem.
