Key Features
- 5000 W peak pulse power rating with 82 V nominal breakdown provides robust transient protection for 70 V automotive load-dump events
- ISO 7637-2 and MIL-STD-750 compliance qualifies the SM50T82AY for automotive ECU and industrial equipment transient protection applications
- SMC (DO-214AB) surface mount package enables automated PCB assembly while handling 5000 W surge pulses without board damage
Applications
The SM50T82AY is designed to protect automotive electronic control units (ECUs), alternator rectifier circuits, and 48 V mild-hybrid systems from load-dump transients and reverse polarity events up to 5000 W peak. Its 82 V breakdown voltage clamps surge voltages below the 113 V maximum, safeguarding downstream MOSFETs, microcontrollers, and CAN transceivers in powertrain and body control modules. The device also protects industrial motor drive inputs and DC bus circuits where voltage transients from inductive switching can exceed nominal rail voltages by 2-3×.

Frequently Asked Questions
What peak pulse power and breakdown voltage does the SM50T82AY provide for automotive load-dump protection?
The SM50T82AY is rated for 5000 W peak pulse power with a nominal breakdown voltage of 82 V (minimum 77.9 V, maximum 86.1 V) and a clamping voltage of 113 V maximum. These ratings are specifically matched to ISO 7637-2 pulse profiles for 24 V and 48 V automotive systems where load-dump transients can reach 70 V to 100 V on the bus.
How does the SM50T82AY's ISO 7637-2 compliance benefit automotive ECU designers?
ISO 7637-2 compliance means the SM50T82AY has been characterized and validated against standardized automotive transient waveforms including load-dump (Pulse 5), ignition switch spikes (Pulse 1, 2a, 2b), and mutual coupling surges. Using a compliant TVS diode reduces the design and test burden for ECU manufacturers by ensuring the protection component meets OEM transient immunity requirements without additional characterization, shortening automotive qualification timelines.
When is the SM50T82AY a better choice than a 3000 W TVS diode for protecting 48 V mild-hybrid automotive circuits?
In 48 V mild-hybrid systems, load-dump transients from alternator disconnection can reach energy levels exceeding 3000 W transient ratings, causing TVS diodes with lower power ratings to enter thermal runaway or fail short. The SM50T82AY's 5000 W rating provides 67% more headroom at the same 82 V clamping threshold, preventing avalanche overload during the 200 ms to 400 ms duration load-dump pulses defined in ISO 7637-2, which is critical for protecting BSG (belt-starter-generator) inverter gate drivers.
