Product details
Overview
VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 from Vishay Semiconductors is a unidirectional 400 W TransZorb® transient voltage suppressor diode in SMF (DO-219AB) package, designed for ESD and surge protection on 5.0 V DC power rails and I/O lines. It features 6.57 V minimum and 6.84 V maximum reverse breakdown voltage at 1 mA, 5 μA maximum reverse leakage at 5.0 V stand-off, and clamps to ≤8.9 V at 43.99 A peak pulse current (10/1000 μs), with ±2 % VBR tolerance.
For engineers reviewing the VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 datasheet, VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 pinout, VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 application, or VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 equivalent, this device serves as a low-capacitance (2095 pF), AEC-Q101-qualified, halogen-free TVS for automotive infotainment power inputs, USB 2.0 data lines, and industrial sensor interfaces requiring robust ±30 kV IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS operates by avalanche breakdown above its 5.0 V working voltage, delivering fast response (<1 ns) clamping to protect downstream ICs from transients. Its SMF package enables high thermal efficiency (RthJL = 20 K/W) and supports wave/reflow soldering per J-STD-020 MSL level 1.
The device meets stringent automotive reliability requirements (AEC-Q101 qualified), exhibits low noise behavior, and maintains stable clamping performance across -55 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range. Its 2095 pF capacitance is optimized for DC power rail protection rather than high-speed signal lines.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ5.0A | Higher VBR (6.4–7.0 V), ±5 % tolerance, same 400 W rating, SMA package (larger footprint) | Less precise clamping threshold; not AEC-Q101 qualified; higher RthJA | Use where cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification and tight VBR control. |
| TPSMD5.0 | Lower clamping voltage (11.2 V @ 32.1 A), 600 W rating, DO-214AB package, ±5 % VBR | Higher peak current capability but looser tolerance and larger size; no AEC-Q101 listing | Prefer when higher surge energy handling is required and board space allows larger package. |

This tight tolerance ensures predictable triggering behavior in 5 V system protection circuits and eliminates ambiguity in margin analysis versus downstream IC absolute maximum ratings.
Is VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 qualified for automotive use?
Yes, VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed stress tests for temperature cycling, humidity bias, mechanical shock, and high-temperature operating life required for automotive electronic components. This qualification confirms its suitability for under-hood and cabin applications such as infotainment power supplies and body control modules.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 under 43.99 A peak pulse current?
The maximum reverse clamping voltage of VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 is 8.9 V when subjected to a 43.99 A peak pulse current with a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value defines the upper voltage limit imposed on the protected circuit during worst-case surge events and is critical for ensuring compatibility with 5 V logic ICs' absolute maximum input ratings.
Does VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 meet IEC 61000-4-2 ESD immunity standards?
Yes, VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 provides ±30 kV contact discharge and ±30 kV air discharge protection per IEC 61000-4-2, exceeding Level 4 requirements. This performance is achieved through its low-noise avalanche structure and fast response time, making it effective for protecting human-accessible ports like USB connectors and display interfaces.
What package type does VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 use, and is it compatible with standard SMT processes?
VTVS5V0GSMF-M3-18 uses the SMF (DO-219AB) package-a low-profile, halogen-free surface-mount outline with 1.08 mm height and SOD-123W-compatible footprint. It is fully compatible with standard reflow and wave soldering per J-STD-020 MSL level 1, supporting peak temperatures up to 260 °C without degradation.
