Product details
Overview
TLD5S30AH from Taiwan Semiconductor is a unidirectional surface-mount transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-218AB package, rated for 30 V working stand-off voltage, 33.3–36.8 V breakdown voltage at 5 mA, and 3600 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), designed for automotive load dump surge protection in 12 V/24 V systems.
For engineers reviewing the TLD5S30AH datasheet, TLD5S30AH pinout, TLD5S30AH application, or TLD5S30AH equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (48.4 V at 74 A), junction temperature capability (−55 °C to +175 °C), AEC-Q101 qualification, ISO 7637-2 compliance, and DO-218AB thermal performance (RθJC = 0.9 °C/W).
Technical Context
The TLD5S30AH implements a single-die, unidirectional avalanche structure optimized for high-energy transients in automotive power networks. It meets ISO 7637-2 (load dump) and ISO 16750-2 surge requirements under defined test conditions, with clamping behavior characterized across 10/1000 µs and 10/10000 µs waveforms.
Its junction passivation design enables stable operation up to TJ = 175 °C, and its matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance. Polarity is fixed unidirectional, with no internal series impedance or integrated control logic.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ30A | Lower PPPM (400 W), SMA package, RθJC ≈ 35 °C/W, VC = 48.4 V same but lower surge margin | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; limited to industrial/commercial use; unsuitable for under-hood automotive | Select only if thermal constraints allow higher junction rise and automotive qualification is not required |
| TPSMD33A | DO-214AB package, PPPM = 3300 W (10/1000 µs), VC = 53.3 V, TJ max = +150 °C, AEC-Q101 qualified | Higher clamping voltage reduces system margin; lower max junction temperature limits under-hood placement | Acceptable where 53.3 V clamping is tolerable and ambient temperature stays below 125 °C |
Compared with SMAJ30A and TPSMD33A, the TLD5S30AH delivers superior surge energy handling (3600 W), higher junction temperature rating (+175 °C), and tighter clamping ratio - making it the preferred choice for demanding automotive load dump protection where thermal headroom and reliability are critical.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of the TLD5S30AH at its rated peak pulse current?
The TLD5S30AH has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 48.4 V at IPPM = 74 A with a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured under standardized surge conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during transient events. The TLD5S30AH maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range due to its low VBR temperature coefficient (0.090 %/°C). Designers must verify layout parasitics do not elevate effective clamping beyond this spec.
Is the TLD5S30AH suitable for 24 V automotive systems?
Yes, the TLD5S30AH is explicitly designed for both 12 V and 24 V automotive systems. Its 30 V working stand-off voltage (VWM) provides sufficient margin above nominal 24 V rail voltages while allowing reliable conduction during load dump events exceeding 100 V. The device meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a/b requirements for 24 V systems and is AEC-Q101 qualified for under-hood deployment. Its +175 °C junction rating supports sustained operation in high-ambient environments typical of commercial vehicle power distribution.
Does the TLD5S30AH have polarity markings, and how is it oriented on PCB?
Yes, the TLD5S30AH uses standard DO-218AB polarity marking: a cathode band (visible ink stripe) identifies the cathode terminal. During PCB layout, the cathode must be connected to the line being protected (e.g., battery rail), and the anode to ground or low-side reference. This unidirectional orientation ensures proper surge shunting. The device's mechanical outline and suggested pad layout are documented in Taiwan Semiconductor's D2103 datasheet revision, confirming cathode-band-to-rail alignment for optimal thermal and electrical performance.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RθJC) for the TLD5S30AH, and how does it impact heatsinking?
The TLD5S30AH has a junction-to-case thermal resistance (RθJC) of 0.9 °C/W under ideal heatsink conditions. This low value enables efficient heat transfer from the silicon die to the PCB copper or external heatsink, critical for sustaining repeated surge events without thermal runaway. To achieve this rating, designers must implement minimum 100 mm² of 2 oz copper connected to both terminals, per Taiwan Semiconductor's layout guidelines. Without adequate copper area, actual RθJC will degrade, reducing safe surge repetition rate and lifetime reliability.
How does the TLD5S30AH compare to the TLD5S30A variant?
The TLD5S30AH and TLD5S30A share identical electrical specifications, package (DO-218AB), and marking code (TLD5S30A), but differ in packaging and qualification: TLD5S30AH is supplied in tape-and-reel (750 pcs/reel) and is AEC-Q101 qualified, whereas TLD5S30A is typically offered in bulk or different reel quantities and may lack full automotive qualification documentation. For automotive production, TLD5S30AH is the designated qualified version; both parts are functionally interchangeable in non-automotive designs where qualification is not mandated.
