Product details
Overview
TGL41-10-E3/96 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-213AB (GL41) MELF package, designed for clamping voltage transients on signal and power lines. It features 9.5 V to 10.5 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 8.55 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 14.5 V maximum clamping voltage at 27.6 A peak pulse current, and 400 W peak pulse power rating with 10/1000 µs waveform - used in sensor interface protection for industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the TGL41-10-E3/96 datasheet, TGL41-10-E3/96 pinout, TGL41-10-E3/96 application, or TGL41-10-E3/96 equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation, -55 °C to +150 °C operating junction temperature, blue-band cathode marking, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated terminals per J-STD-002.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates exclusively in unidirectional mode, with a glass-passivated silicon junction enabling fast response time (<1 ns) and low incremental surge resistance. Its clamping behavior is defined by a 10/1000 µs waveform test condition and derates linearly above 25 °C ambient per Fig. 2 in the datasheet.
The device complies with ANSI/IEEE C62.35 for transient suppression standards and meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with a 250 °C lead-free reflow peak. Its DO-213AB package supports automated placement and achieves UL 94 V-0 flammability rating via molding compound.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ10A | DO-214AA (SMB) package; 10.0 V VWM; 17.0 V VC @ 32.3 A; same PPPM | Higher clamping voltage increases stress on protected IC; larger footprint requires PCB redesign | Select when higher surge current rating is needed and board space allows SMB outline |
| P6KE10A | DO-15 axial package; 10.0 V VWM; 16.7 V VC @ 23.3 A; 600 W PPPM (10/1000 µs) | Lower IPPM and axial form factor limit suitability for high-density SMT designs | Prefer for through-hole legacy designs where manual assembly or high-voltage standoff (>1000 V) is prioritized |
Compared with SMBJ10A and P6KE10A, the TGL41-10-E3/96 offers superior thermal performance in compact MELF packaging, tighter VBR tolerance (±5%), and optimized clamping for low-voltage IC interfaces - making it ideal for space-constrained industrial and telecom modules requiring automated placement.

FAQ
What is the polarity configuration of the TGL41-10-E3/96?
The TGL41-10-E3/96 is a unidirectional TVS diode only, with cathode identified by a blue band. It conducts during positive transients relative to its anode and blocks reverse voltage up to 8.55 V (VWM). This configuration suits DC-biased signal and power rails where reverse conduction is not required.
Does the TGL41-10-E3/96 meet lead-free assembly requirements?
Yes, the TGL41-10-E3/96 carries the E3 suffix indicating full compliance with JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing and RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. Its matte tin-plated terminals are rated for lead-free reflow up to 250 °C peak temperature per J-STD-020 MSL Level 1.
What is the maximum clamping voltage for the TGL41-10-E3/96 under surge conditions?
The TGL41-10-E3/96 exhibits a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 14.5 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 27.6 A using the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry.
Can the TGL41-10-E3/96 be used in bidirectional signal lines?
No - the TGL41-10-E3/96 is specified for unidirectional operation only. For bidirectional protection (e.g., AC-coupled or symmetrical data lines), a dedicated bidirectional TVS such as the TGL41-10CA or SMBJ10CA must be selected, as the TGL41-10-E3/96 lacks reverse breakdown capability.
How does the DO-213AB package of the TGL41-10-E3/96 impact thermal performance?
The DO-213AB (GL41) MELF package provides superior thermal resistance compared to flat-pack alternatives due to its cylindrical geometry and direct end-to-end heat path. At TL = 75 °C, the TGL41-10-E3/96 sustains 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation, supporting reliable operation in thermally dense layouts without additional heatsinking.
