P6SMBJ130 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The P6SMBJ130 is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode manufactured by Littelfuse Inc., designed for general-purpose overvoltage protection in surface-mount applications. The device features a 111V reverse standoff voltage, 187.95V maximum clamping voltage, and 600W peak pulse power rating in a DO-214AA (SMB) package. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing design support and procurement.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the P6SMBJ130 is determined by the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Criteria:

• Unidirectional channel configuration (1 channel required)
• Reverse standoff voltage: 111V nominal
• Peak pulse current capability: 3.4A minimum
• Peak pulse power rating: 600W minimum
• Clamping voltage: maximum 187.95V @ Ipp

Mechanical Compatibility Criteria:

• Package type: DO-214AA (SMB) surface mount
• Mounting type: Surface mount

Environmental Criteria:

• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 150°C minimum
• RoHS compliance status

The substitute parts listed maintain these core parameters within acceptable engineering tolerances for direct circuit replacement. Variations in clamping voltage (179V vs. 187.95V) and peak pulse current (3.35A to 3.4A) remain within the functional operating window for transient suppression applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Manufacturer Recommended):

P6SMB130A (Eaton - Electronics Division) and TVP06B131A-G (Comchip Technology) are the preferred substitutes. Both maintain the 111V reverse standoff voltage specification, deliver 600W peak pulse power, and are actively manufactured. P6SMB130A offers the closest electrical match with identical 3.4A peak pulse current and is available in higher inventory quantities (6400 pcs). TVP06B131A-G provides equivalent performance with a marginally lower peak pulse current (3.35A) and maintains full RoHS3 compliance.

Alternative Substitute:

SMBJP6KE130A-TP (Micro Commercial Co) is an active alternative with identical electrical specifications and extended operating temperature range (-65°C to 150°C). This part is suitable for applications requiring enhanced low-temperature performance.

Consideration for Lower Standoff Voltage:

SMBJ100E3/TR13 (Microchip Technology) features a 100V reverse standoff voltage, which is 11V lower than the original specification. This part is suitable only for applications where the lower standoff voltage does not compromise circuit protection requirements. The clamping voltage (179V) and power rating (600W) remain compatible.

All substitute parts maintain DO-214AA (SMB) package compatibility, surface-mount configuration, and RoHS compliance status appropriate for modern manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can P6SMB130A directly replace P6SMBJ130 in existing designs?

A: Yes. P6SMB130A maintains the critical electrical parameters: 111V reverse standoff voltage, 3.4A peak pulse current, and 600W power rating. The package type (DO-214AA, SMB) and mounting configuration are identical. The part is actively manufactured by Eaton - Electronics Division.

Q: What is the difference between the clamping voltages listed (187.95V vs. 179V)?

A: The original P6SMBJ130 specifies a maximum clamping voltage of 187.95V, while most active substitutes specify 179V. Both values fall within acceptable transient suppression performance for general-purpose applications. The lower clamping voltage in substitutes provides slightly improved protection margins.

Q: Is SMBJ100E3/TR13 compatible with P6SMBJ130 applications?

A: SMBJ100E3/TR13 has a 100V reverse standoff voltage compared to the 111V specification of P6SMBJ130. This 11V difference may affect circuit protection in applications with tight voltage margins. Compatibility depends on the specific circuit design and maximum allowable standoff voltage tolerance.

Q: Do all substitute parts have the same moisture sensitivity level?

A: P6SMB130A, SMBJ100E3/TR13, and TVP06B131A-G all specify MSL 1 (Unlimited), matching the original P6SMBJ130. SMBJP6KE130A-TP does not specify MSL in the provided data. For moisture-sensitive applications, confirm MSL specifications with the manufacturer.

Q: What is the advantage of SMBJP6KE130A-TP over other substitutes?

A: SMBJP6KE130A-TP offers an extended operating temperature range of -65°C to 150°C, compared to -55°C to 150°C for most alternatives. This makes it suitable for applications requiring enhanced low-temperature performance or operation in extreme environments.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: P6SMB130A, SMBJ100E3/TR13, and TVP06B131A-G are RoHS3 compliant. SMBJP6KE130A-TP is listed as REACH Unaffected. All parts meet current environmental compliance requirements for commercial electronics manufacturing.
