Product details

1.5kW Zener TVS for 171V rails

The 1.5SMC200AHM3_A/H: The 1500W rating at 10/1000µs is the standard industrial pulse test for TVS diodes — it simulates a lightning-induced surge or inductive load dump. For shorter pulses the part can absorb significantly more peak power; the derating curve in the Vishay datasheet scales the 1500W figure linearly above 25°C to zero at 150°C.

AEC-Q101 qualification and temperature range

This part carries AEC-Q101 qualification, the automotive-grade discrete semiconductor stress test standard. The full operating junction temperature range extends from -65°C to +150°C, which covers under-hood and engine-bay thermal profiles with margin. The TransZorb® series is Vishay's branded TVS platform, optimized for clamping response time and surge energy absorption. The 'HM3' suffix in the order code indicates the automotive-grade AEC-Q101 qualified variant with a specific lead-frame and mold compound set for high-reliability applications.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 1.5SMC200AHM3_A/H and what is the lead time?

Submit a request with your target quantity to get a firm delivery commitment.

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to this TVS in the same family?

The base product number is 1.5SMC200, and the non-automotive variant (without the 'HM3' suffix) shares the same DO-214AB package and electrical characteristics but lacks AEC-Q101 qualification.
