That margin suits 12V/24V automotive systems with high-voltage bus architectures or DC-DC converter outputs in hybrid/EV powertrains. ## Package and reflow compatibility Housed in the DO-214AB (SMC) package with supplier device package designation DO-214AB (SMCJ), this TVS uses the standard JEDEC footprint shared across the 1.5SMC family. The surface-mount body mates with a solder pad pattern common to SMC diodes, so no layout change is needed if swapping between 1.5SMC voltage grades. The -65°C to +150°C junction temperature range covers under-hood ambient plus self-heating during a pulse event. For reflow, the standard SMC profile applies — the part's moisture sensitivity level is not explicitly stated in the listing, so pre-bake at 125°C for 24 hours if the reel has been opened longer than the floor life typical for this package class. ## Sourcing and compliance posture As an AEC-Q101 qualified device, it ships with the automotive-grade PPAP documentation and traceability expected for Tier-1 production. The 'HE3' suffix indicates Vishay's automotive-grade lead-free plating.","metaTitle":"Vishay 1.5SMC160AHE3/9AT TVS Diode, 1500W, DO-214AB","metaDescription":"Vishay 1.5SMC160AHE3/9AT automotive TVS diode, 1500W peak pulse, 136V standoff, AEC-Q101 qualified.
