Product details
Overview
TGL41-110A-E3/97 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in GL41 (DO-213AB) plastic MELF package, with 105 V to 116 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 94.0 V standoff voltage (VWM), and 152 V clamping voltage (VC) at 1.32 A peak pulse current (IPPM). It delivers 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), operates from −55 °C to +150 °C, and protects MOSFETs and signal lines in industrial sensor units.
For engineers reviewing the TGL41-110A-E3/97 datasheet, TGL41-110A-E3/97 pinout, TGL41-110A-E3/97 application, or TGL41-110A-E3/97 equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, DO-213AB mechanical compatibility, 1.32 A IPPM at 152 V clamping, 5.0 μA max reverse leakage at VWM, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated terminals rated for J-STD-002 solderability.
Technical Context
This TVS diode uses a glass-passivated planar junction for stable breakdown characteristics and low incremental surge resistance. Its unidirectional configuration provides forward conduction only during overvoltage events on the cathode side, with clamping action triggered when reverse voltage exceeds VBR (105–116 V).
The device meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with 250 °C lead-free reflow peak temperature tolerance and exhibits a +0.110 %/°C temperature coefficient of VBR, enabling predictable voltage shift across operating temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 105 V / 116 V - defines reliable turn-on threshold under 1.0 mA test current; ensures protection activation before downstream IC damage |
| VWM | 94.0 V - maximum continuous reverse working voltage; must exceed system nominal rail to prevent leakage or false triggering |
| VC @ IPPM | 152 V at 1.32 A - clamped voltage during 10/1000 μs transient; determines maximum stress imposed on protected circuit |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling capability; supports high-energy transients like inductive load switching |
| IFSM | 40 A - 8.3 ms half-sine surge rating; validates robustness against repetitive motor or relay coil kickback |
| Junction Temp Range | −55 °C to +150 °C - enables deployment in automotive engine bays and industrial enclosures without derating |
| Package | GL41 (DO-213AB) - cylindrical MELF outline with blue cathode band; compatible with automated pick-and-place and reflow |
Pinout & Package
GL41 (DO-213AB) is a plastic MELF package with two solderable axial terminals. The blue band identifies the cathode (positive terminal during TVS conduction). No internal pins-device functions as a two-terminal bidirectional clamp in unidirectional configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Reference node for reverse-biased operation | Connected to system ground or low-side return path; defines polarity orientation for clamping |
| Cathode (blue band) | Transient voltage sensing and clamping node | Connected to protected line (e.g., sensor supply); conducts when line voltage exceeds VBR relative to anode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Supports high-energy ESD and lightning-induced surges without degradation in industrial control systems |
| Glass-passivated planar junction | Ensures stable VBR tolerance and low leakage (<5 μA) over lifetime and temperature cycling |
| MSL Level 1 (250 °C peak) | Enables single-pass lead-free reflow assembly without moisture-related popcorn failure |
| Matte tin-plated leads (J-STD-002 compliant) | Guarantees reliable wetting and intermetallic formation during automated soldering processes |
| Unidirectional polarity only | Simplifies layout by eliminating need for series blocking diodes in DC-coupled protection paths |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Protection | Telecom Line Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 24 V analog output sensors in factory automation against inductive switching transients from solenoids and contactors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between sensor output line and ground to clamp transients above 94 V while remaining inert during normal operation. Use Value: Prevents latch-up or gate oxide damage in downstream op-amps and ADC drivers by limiting transient voltage to ≤152 V at 1.32 A. | Use Scenario: Safeguarding RS-485 transceiver data lines in base station backhaul equipment exposed to lightning-induced surges on long cable runs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff-connected TVS on differential pair (A/B) referenced to local ground, activated only during overvoltage events exceeding VBR. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity below 94 V while suppressing >1 kV transients within 1 ns response time, preserving bit error rate compliance. |
| MOSFET Gate Protection | Computer Power Rail Clamping |
Use Scenario: Shielding N-channel MOSFET gates in DC-DC converter synchronous rectifiers from Miller-induced voltage spikes during high dV/dt switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-capacitance TVS connected between gate and source to clamp overshoot before gate oxide breakdown. Use Value: Limits gate-source voltage to ≤152 V during 10/1000 μs pulses, preventing irreversible dielectric failure in <100 V rated MOSFETs. | Use Scenario: Adding secondary overvoltage protection on +12 V motherboard VRM outputs where primary regulation may fail under fault conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standby TVS tied between 12 V rail and chassis ground, conducting only if rail exceeds 94 V due to regulator runaway or feedback loss. Use Value: Activates within nanoseconds to clamp rail to ≤152 V, protecting SATA controllers and PCIe retimers from catastrophic overvoltage damage. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| P4SMA110A-E3 | Same VWM (94 V) and VC (152 V), but in SMA package (DO-214AC); 1.0 W PD vs. 1.0 W; 400 W PPPM identical | SMA offers higher board-level mechanical robustness and easier manual rework; less suitable for high-density MELF layouts | Select P4SMA110A-E3 when PCB space allows larger footprint and serviceability is prioritized over miniaturization |
| SMBJ110A | Higher VC (187 V at 1.07 A), lower IPPM (1.07 A), same VWM; SMB package (DO-214AA); 600 W PPPM rating | Designed for higher-energy transients but with looser clamping; requires larger trace spacing due to SMB body size | Choose SMBJ110A where system-level surge testing demands >400 W margin and clamping voltage tolerance exceeds 152 V |
Compared with P4SMA110A-E3 and SMBJ110A, the TGL41-110A-E3/97 provides identical electrical protection performance in a smaller DO-213AB form factor optimized for automated placement and high-density sensor modules, with no compromise in thermal derating or surge lifetime.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range for TGL41-110A-E3/97?
The TGL41-110A-E3/97 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 105 V to 116 V at 1.0 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards. This range ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports design margining for worst-case overvoltage events in 94 V nominal systems.
Is TGL41-110A-E3/97 suitable for lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, the TGL41-110A-E3/97 meets MSL Level 1 per J-STD-020 with a maximum lead-free reflow peak temperature of 250 °C. Its GL41 (DO-213AB) package and matte tin-plated terminals are qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles without popcorn cracking or solder joint reliability issues.
Does TGL41-110A-E3/97 have bidirectional capability?
No, the TGL41-110A-E3/97 is unidirectional only, as confirmed in the Vishay datasheet. It conducts in reverse bias above VBR and blocks forward current up to 3.5 V at 25 A; bidirectional protection requires separate part numbers or external circuitry.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TGL41-110A-E3/97 under surge conditions?
The TGL41-110A-E3/97 clamps to a maximum of 152 V at 1.32 A peak pulse current (IPPM) using a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per standardized test conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuits during transient events.
How does the temperature coefficient affect TGL41-110A-E3/97 performance?
The TGL41-110A-E3/97 has a +0.110 %/°C temperature coefficient of VBR, meaning its breakdown voltage increases by approximately 0.11 % per degree Celsius rise in junction temperature. At 125 °C, VBR shifts to ~119 V, requiring design validation for high-temperature operation near the 116 V max spec.
