Product details
Overview
SMF54AT1G from onsemi is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for overvoltage protection of DC power rails and I/O lines. It features a 54 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM), 93.6 A maximum peak pulse current (IPP), 71.2 V clamping voltage (VC) at IPP, <1 ns response time, and 200 W peak pulse power rating per 10/1000 µs waveform - deployed in portable electronics, power supplies, and industrial control interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the SMF54AT1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include VRWM alignment with system operating voltage, VC margin relative to IC absolute maximum ratings, surge current capability under IEC 61000-4-2/4-4, and SOD-123FL footprint compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The SMF54AT1G operates as a Zener-based avalanche clamp, triggered when reverse voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold (VBR = 64.4–71.2 V). Its low dynamic impedance ensures stable clamping during fast transients, while its 1.0 mm max height and 8.45 mm² footprint support space-constrained designs.
It meets Class 3 ESD immunity (>16 kV HBM), Level 4 IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge (8 kV), and 40 A electrical fast transient (EFT) immunity per IEC 61000-4-4 - confirming suitability for end-equipment requiring robust EMC compliance without external filtering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Working Peak Reverse Voltage (VRWM) | 54 V - sets minimum system operating voltage threshold before clamping activation |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR) @ IT = 1 A | 64.4–71.2 V - defines reliable avalanche onset range under standardized test conditions |
| Clamping Voltage (VC) @ IPP = 93.6 A | 71.2 V - maximum voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case 10/1000 µs surge |
| Peak Pulse Power (Ppk) | 200 W @ 10/1000 µs - sustains single high-energy transients without failure |
| Response Time | <1 ns - ensures protection engages before sensitive logic or analog circuitry is damaged |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | >16 kV - exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Class 3 requirement for user-accessible ports |
| Leakage Current @ VRWM | 1 µA max - negligible standby power loss and signal integrity impact on 54 V bias rails |
Pinout & Package
SOD-123FL surface-mount package: 2-pin, low-profile (max height 1.0 mm), cathode-indicated by polarity band, lead finish 100% matte tin, MSL 1 rated, compatible with 260°C reflow.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: Cathode | Anode-referenced clamping node | Connected to protected line; conducts avalanche current to ground/anode during overvoltage |
| 2: Anode | Reference/return path | Tied to system ground or lower-potential rail; completes transient current path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-profile SOD-123FL package | Enables placement adjacent to connectors or ICs in ultra-thin consumer devices without height interference |
| 200 W peak pulse power rating | Handles IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 surges (1 kV line-to-ground) without degradation |
| IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD immunity | Eliminates need for additional ESD protection stages on USB, HDMI, or button interfaces |
| 1 µA max leakage @ VRWM | Preserves battery life in always-on 54 V sensor or telemetry circuits |
| Pb-free and RoHS-compliant construction | Meets global environmental compliance requirements for industrial and automotive supply chains |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Protection | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance (<50 pF @ 0 V) unidirectional TVS on signal path before isolation barrier. Use Value: Provides >16 kV HBM ESD protection without distorting sub-mV biopotential signals due to minimal leakage (1 µA) and low dynamic impedance. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SZSMF54AT1G | AEC-Q101 qualified; identical electrical specs but with automotive-grade traceability and PPAP documentation | Required for automotive BCM, ADAS domain controllers, and chassis modules | Select SZSMF54AT1G when automotive qualification, change control, or site-specific manufacturing validation is mandated |
| SMAJ54A | Higher clamping voltage (87.1 V), larger SMA package (4.5 mm × 2.7 mm), 400 W peak power | Better suited for higher-energy surges where board space allows and tighter VC margin is not critical | Choose SMAJ54A only if surge energy exceeds 200 W and layout accommodates larger footprint and height |
Compared with SMF54AT1G, SZSMF54AT1G adds automotive qualification without altering electrical behavior, while SMAJ54A trades compactness for higher surge capacity and relaxed clamping - making SMF54AT1G optimal for space-constrained, non-automotive 54 V rail protection where precise VC control is essential.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of SMF54AT1G at its rated peak pulse current?
The SMF54AT1G has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 71.2 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current (IPP) of 93.6 A under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 2 in the official datasheet and represents the upper limit of voltage imposed on the protected circuit during worst-case surge events - critical for verifying margin against downstream IC absolute maximum ratings.
Is SMF54AT1G suitable for protecting a 48 V DC power rail?
Yes, SMF54AT1G is specifically designed for 48–54 V systems: its 54 V working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) provides ≥6 V margin above nominal 48 V operation, ensuring no conduction during normal conditions while enabling immediate clamping during overvoltage. Its 71.2 V VC also maintains safe headroom below typical 80 V absolute maximum ratings of 48 V-rated DC-DC controllers and MOSFETs.
Does SMF54AT1G meet automotive qualification standards?
The base SMF54AT1G is not AEC-Q101 qualified; however, its automotive-grade variant SZSMF54AT1G shares identical electrical specifications and adds AEC-Q101 qualification, PPAP capability, and enhanced process controls. For non-automotive applications like industrial or telecom, SMF54AT1G is fully appropriate and cost-optimized.
What is the leakage current specification for SMF54AT1G at its VRWM?
SMF54AT1G specifies a maximum reverse leakage current (IR) of 1 µA at its working peak reverse voltage (VRWM) of 54 V and TA = 25°C. This ultra-low leakage minimizes standby power loss and avoids signal distortion in high-impedance sensing or battery-backed circuits - confirmed in Table 1 of the onsemi datasheet revision 7.
Can SMF54AT1G be used in place of SMAJ54A in an existing design?
No direct substitution is recommended: SMF54AT1G uses SOD-123FL (2.7 × 1.6 mm), while SMAJ54A uses SMA (4.5 × 2.7 mm); their footprints and thermal dissipation differ significantly. Though both target 54 V protection, SMF54AT1G's lower VC (71.2 V vs. 87.1 V) and smaller size require layout redesign and revised surge margin analysis - consult the full datasheets before replacement.
