Product details
Overview
T6N47AHM3/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount PAR® Transient Voltage Suppressor in DFN3820A package, featuring 47 V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR), 40.2 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 64.8 V clamping voltage at 9.3 A peak pulse current, and 600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs). It is AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive sensor line protection.
For engineers reviewing the T6N47AHM3/H datasheet, T6N47AHM3/H pinout, T6N47AHM3/H application, or T6N47AHM3/H equivalent, this device supports high-reliability transient suppression in space-constrained automotive ECUs, battery management systems, and ADAS sensor interfaces where TJ = 185 °C operation and AOI-compatible side-wettable flanks are required.
Technical Context
This TVS diode employs passivated anisotropic rectifier technology with junction passivation optimized for stable clamping under repetitive surge stress. Its unidirectional configuration enables precise reverse-biased overvoltage clamping on signal or power rails without forward conduction interference.
The DFN3820A package delivers low thermal resistance (RθJM = 5 °C/W typical) and supports automated optical inspection via side-wettable flanks. It operates across -65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range and meets IEC 61000-4-2 ±30 kV ESD immunity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/typ/max) | 44.7 / 47.0 / 49.4 V - ensures reliable triggering above system operating voltage while accommodating ±5 % tolerance |
| VWM | 40.2 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before leakage exceeds 1 μA, compatible with 36 V automotive supply rails |
| VC @ IPPM | 64.8 V - clamping voltage at 9.3 A peak pulse current, limiting downstream IC stress during ISO 7637-2 pulse 1/2a transients |
| PPPM | 600 W (10/1000 μs) - sustains high-energy surges common in 12 V/24 V vehicle electrical systems |
| TJ max | +185 °C - enables placement near heat sources (e.g., power MOSFETs, DC-DC converters) without derating |
| ESD immunity | ±30 kV contact/air per IEC 61000-4-2 - protects CAN, LIN, and sensor analog front-ends from human-body-model events |
| Package | DFN3820A - 3.95 mm × 2.18 mm footprint with side-wettable flanks for solder-joint quality verification |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ47A-E3/57T | DO-214AC package; higher RθJA (150 °C/W); VC = 67.0 V @ 8.7 A; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Not suitable for under-hood automotive use due to lower TJ max (150 °C) and MSL Level 2 requirement | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial PCBs where AOI is not required and ambient <105 °C |
| TPSMD47A | SMD-2 package; same VBR/VC; RθJM = 7.5 °C/W; AEC-Q101 qualified but no side-wettable flanks | Lacks AOI capability; requires X-ray inspection for solder joint validation; slightly larger footprint (4.5 × 3.2 mm) | Prefer when board-level reliability testing includes X-ray, or when thermal pad routing constraints prevent DFN3820A mounting |
Compared with SMAJ47A-E3/57T and TPSMD47A, T6N47AHM3/H offers superior thermal performance (RθJM = 5 °C/W), guaranteed AOI compatibility, and full automotive qualification - making it the optimal choice for next-generation compact, high-temperature ECU designs requiring zero-defect solder joints.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the T6N47AHM3/H at its rated peak pulse current?
The T6N47AHM3/H has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 64.8 V at 9.3 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under 10/1000 μs waveform conditions. This value is measured per Figure 1 in Vishay document 98432 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The T6N47AHM3/H maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range.
Is the T6N47AHM3/H suitable for use in under-hood automotive applications?
Yes, the T6N47AHM3/H is explicitly designed for under-hood use: it is AEC-Q101 qualified, rated for TJ = 185 °C, and features halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction meeting automotive material standards. Its DFN3820A package provides robust thermal dissipation (RθJM = 5 °C/W typical), enabling reliable operation in high-ambient-temperature zones such as engine control modules where the T6N47AHM3/H is commonly deployed.
Does the T6N47AHM3/H require special PCB layout considerations for thermal management?
Yes - the exposed thermal pad (anode) of the T6N47AHM3/H must be soldered to a minimum 100 mm² copper area using at least four thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, spaced ≤1 mm apart) to achieve specified RθJM ≤ 6.5 °C/W. Per Vishay's recommended mounting pad layout, insufficient copper or missing vias will degrade surge handling capability and accelerate junction temperature rise during repetitive transients.
How does the side-wettable flank feature of the T6N47AHM3/H improve manufacturing yield?
The side-wettable flanks on the T6N47AHM3/H enable automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder fillet geometry without X-ray imaging. This allows real-time detection of insufficient solder, bridging, or misalignment during SMT assembly - reducing field failure risk in automotive production. Unlike standard DFN packages, the T6N47AHM3/H's flank metallization ensures consistent reflectivity for AOI camera systems, directly supporting zero-defect goals in Tier 1 supplier processes.
What is the reverse leakage current specification for the T6N47AHM3/H at maximum operating temperature?
At TJ = 150 °C and VWM = 40.2 V, the T6N47AHM3/H exhibits a maximum reverse leakage current (ID) of 1.0 μA, as specified in Table 1 of Vishay document 98432. This ultra-low leakage preserves signal integrity in high-impedance sensor bias networks and prevents erroneous fault detection in battery monitoring circuits where the T6N47AHM3/H is often applied.
