P6SMB130CA-M3/5B Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P6SMB130CA-M3/5B is a bidirectional Zener transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Vishay General Semiconductor - Diodes Division. This surface mount component operates in the DO-214AA (SMB) package and provides transient overvoltage protection for general-purpose applications. The part is active in production with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified for applications requiring alternative sourcing, packaging formats, or manufacturer options while maintaining identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the P6SMB130CA-M3/5B are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Voltage - Reverse Standoff (Typ): 111V
• Voltage - Breakdown (Min): 124V
• Voltage - Clamping (Max) @ Ipp: 179V
• Current - Peak Pulse (10/1000µs): 3.4A
• Power - Peak Pulse: 600W
• Package / Case: DO-214AA, SMB
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Bidirectional Channels: 1
• Type: Zener

All identified substitutes maintain these core electrical specifications. Packaging format variations (Tape & Box versus Tape & Reel) and operating temperature range differences do not affect functional equivalence for general-purpose transient voltage suppression applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status with full compliance certifications. The P6SMB130CA-M3/5B (Vishay) and P6SMB130CA (Eaton) are manufacturer-recommended equivalents with identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility. The SMBJP6KE130CA-TP (Micro Commercial Co) provides an alternative source with extended upper operating temperature capability (175°C versus 150°C), which may be advantageous in thermally demanding environments while maintaining all core electrical parameters.

Selection between these parts should be based on packaging format requirements (Tape & Box versus Tape & Reel), inventory availability, and supply chain considerations. All parts are RoHS compliant and carry unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings, eliminating environmental storage concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can SMBJP6KE130CA-TP replace P6SMB130CA-M3/5B in all applications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (111V standoff, 179V clamping, 3.4A peak pulse, 600W peak power) and the same DO-214AA SMB package. The SMBJP6KE130CA-TP offers an extended operating temperature range (-55 to 175°C versus -65 to 150°C), which provides additional thermal margin in high-temperature environments.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Box and Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Tape & Box (TB) packaging supplies components on tape within a protective box, suitable for lower-volume applications and manual handling. Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous tape on a reel, optimized for automated assembly processes and higher-volume production. Both formats contain identical components with no functional difference.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The P6SMB130CA-M3/5B and SMBJP6KE130CA-TP are ROHS3 compliant. The P6SMB130CA (Eaton) is RoHS compliant. All parts meet environmental and regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial applications.

Q: Does operating temperature range affect substitution compatibility?

A: Operating temperature range does not affect electrical performance within the specified range. The SMBJP6KE130CA-TP supports -55 to 175°C, while the Vishay and Eaton parts support -65 to 150°C. Selection should match the application's thermal requirements. For applications operating below 150°C, all parts are functionally equivalent.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB assembly?

A: Yes. All three parts use the DO-214AA SMB package with identical pinout and footprint. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable on the same PCB without layout modifications or rework.
