Product details
Overview
STIEC45-24AS from STMicroelectronics is a unidirectional Transil™ TVS diode designed for IEC 61000-4-5 surge protection on DC power lines, with 24 V stand-off voltage, 500 A peak pulse current (8/20 μs), and clamping voltage of 42 V at 500 A. It operates up to 150 °C junction temperature and features low leakage (0.2 μA at 25 °C), making it suitable for industrial SMPS and telecom power supplies requiring robust transient immunity.
For engineers reviewing the STIEC45-24AS datasheet, STIEC45-24AS pinout, STIEC45-24AS application, or STIEC45-24AS equivalent, key selection criteria include its 24 V VRM rating, unidirectional clamping behavior (VBR ≥ 26.7 V), dynamic resistance of 0.025 Ω, JEDEC DO-214AB (SMC) package compatibility, and compliance with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 ESD and IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 surge standards.
Technical Context
The STIEC45-24AS employs planar silicon technology to achieve low leakage and high thermal stability, enabling reliable operation at Tj = 150 °C. Its unidirectional architecture provides forward conduction (~0.6 V) and reverse clamping starting at VBR ≥ 26.7 V, with clamping voltage tightly bounded at 42 V under 500 A 8/20 μs surge.
It meets IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 (4 kV common mode, 334 A) and Level 2 (1 kV differential mode, 500 A), while also satisfying MIL-STD-883G HBM Class 3B (25 kV) and UL 94 V0 flammability requirements - all in a JEDEC-registered SMC (DO-214AB) package with IPC 7351-compliant footprint.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Stand-off Voltage (VRM) | 24 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before clamping initiates |
| Breakdown Voltage (VBR min) | 26.7 V at 1 mA - guaranteed reverse avalanche onset threshold |
| Clamping Voltage (VCL) | 42 V at 500 A (8/20 μs) - maximum voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case surge |
| Peak Pulse Current (Ipp) | 500 A (8/20 μs) - surge handling capacity matching IEC 61000-4-5 Level 2 differential mode |
| Leakage Current (IRM) | 0.2 μA at 24 V, 25 °C - ensures minimal standby power loss in high-impedance circuits |
| Junction Temperature Range | –55 °C to +150 °C - supports deployment in harsh industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
| Dynamic Resistance (RD) | 0.025 Ω - determines clamping voltage rise per ampere beyond VBR, critical for precision protection |
Pinout & Package
The STIEC45-24AS is housed in an SMC package (JEDEC DO-214AB), with a standardized two-terminal configuration optimized for high-current PCB layout and thermal dissipation via copper pour under leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (marked end) | Surge current sink / clamping node | Connected to protected line; conducts reverse surge current to ground when V > VBR |
| Anode | Reference / return path | Typically tied to system ground or low-impedance return plane; completes clamping loop during transients |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unidirectional clamping | Enables asymmetric protection on positive-rail DC systems without forward conduction interference |
| Low dynamic resistance (0.025 Ω) | Minimizes clamping voltage overshoot across wide current range, improving margin for downstream ICs |
| High junction temperature rating (150 °C) | Supports placement near heat-generating components (e.g., MOSFETs, inductors) without derating |
| JEDEC DO-214AB (SMC) footprint | Ensures mechanical robustness and solder joint reliability under thermal cycling and vibration stress |
| UL 94 V0 resin encapsulation | Meets fire-safety requirements for enclosed industrial and telecom equipment housings |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply Protection | Telecom DC Feeder Line Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 24 V DC input rails in programmable logic controllers (PLCs) against lightning-induced surges on factory floor wiring. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS clamp placed between input rail and chassis ground, absorbing 4 kV common-mode transients per IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4. Use Value: Limits rail voltage to ≤42 V during 500 A surge, preventing damage to upstream rectifiers and downstream DC-DC controllers. | Use Scenario: Safeguarding -48 V DC feeding lines in central office telecom racks exposed to induced surges from nearby AC mains or lightning. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-biased TVS on negative rail relative to ground, clamping fast transients before they reach line-card power converters. Use Value: Maintains <0.2 μA leakage at full -48 V bias, avoiding false trips in high-impedance monitoring circuits. |
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) Input Protection | Renewable Energy Charge Controller Interface |
Use Scenario: Securing 24 V battery-supplied inputs in commercial vehicle BCMs against load-dump and ISO 7637-2 pulses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage clamp on fused battery feed, coordinated with slower fuses to handle repetitive 100 ms surges. Use Value: Withstands 410 A peak current at 150 °C junction temperature, ensuring protection integrity during extended engine cranking. | Use Scenario: Shielding MPPT charge controller inputs connected to solar panel strings subject to rapid voltage transients during cloud-edge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff-rated TVS on PV+ line, rated for 24 V nominal but tolerant of 33 V open-circuit string voltages. Use Value: Clamps at 42 V with <10 ns response, limiting voltage overshoot below MOSFET drain-source breakdown in synchronous rectifier stages. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar TVS diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ24A | Lower Ipp (400 A @ 8/20 μs); higher VCL (48.4 V); same DO-214AC (SMA) package | Limited to IEC 61000-4-5 Level 2 (1 kV) only; not validated for Level 4 common-mode stress | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for highest surge margin and board space allows SMA footprint |
| SMCJ24A | Same Ipp (500 A) and VCL (42.1 V); larger SMC (DO-214AB) package; identical thermal performance | Functionally interchangeable; minor marking and reel packaging differences only | Preferred drop-in alternative if STIEC45-24AS lead time is constrained; verified pin-to-pin and thermal compatibility |
Compared with SMAJ24A and SMCJ24A, the STIEC45-24AS delivers tighter VBR tolerance (26.7–28.2 V vs. 24.0–27.1 V), lower dynamic resistance (0.025 Ω vs. 0.032 Ω), and explicit IEC 61000-4-5 Level 4 validation - directly enhancing protection margin in high-reliability industrial power designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of STIEC45-24AS under a 500 A 8/20 μs surge?
The maximum clamping voltage (VCL) is 42 V at 500 A for an 8/20 μs waveform, measured per IEC 61000-4-5 test conditions. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and reflects worst-case device behavior under standardized surge stress.
Can STIEC45-24AS be used in bidirectional signal line protection?
No - STIEC45-24AS is strictly unidirectional and clamps only in reverse bias. For bidirectional protection, ST offers the STIEC45-24ACS variant, which clamps symmetrically in both polarities and shares identical electrical ratings except for polarity behavior.
Does STIEC45-24AS meet RoHS2 and REACH compliance?
Yes - the device is RoHS2 compliant (2011/65/EU) and conforms to REACH SVHC regulations. Its ECOPACK®2 designation confirms lead-free termination, halogen-free molding compound, and full substance declaration per ST's environmental policy.
What is the recommended PCB pad layout for optimal thermal performance?
ST specifies a minimum 100 mm² copper area per lead (SCU ≥ 4.0 cm² total) on FR4 with 35 µm copper thickness. The recommended footprint follows IPC 7351 for SMC (DO-214AB), including thermal vias under pads to internal ground planes to maintain Rth(j-a) ≤ 90 °C/W.
