Product details

Active production with AEC-Q101 qualification

The 1.5SMC150CAHM3/I: Qualified to AEC-Q101, the automotive discrete semiconductor stress-test standard, this TVS diode covers the -65°C to +150°C junction-temperature range — the full underhood thermal envelope with margin.

Clamping voltages and peak pulse current

The 207 V clamp ceiling is the voltage that appears across the protected line during a surge — downstream components must survive at least that peak without damage. Bidirectional configuration means symmetrical clamping in both polarities, so the part protects a signal pair or a DC bus without needing to observe orientation.

DO-214AB SMC surface-mount footprint

Housed in a DO-214AB (SMC) package, the same JEDEC outline used across the 1.5SMC series — the solder pad geometry and reflow profile are shared with the rest of the family, simplifying board layout.

Frequently asked questions

What AEC-Q grade does the 1.5SMC150CAHM3/I carry?

AEC-Q101, the automotive discrete qualification standard. The -65°C to +150°C junction-temperature rating covers underhood and engine-bay environments with margin.
