Product details
Overview
TGL41-22-E3/96 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-213AB (GL41) plastic MELF package, with 20.9 V minimum breakdown voltage (VBR), 18.8 V standoff voltage (VWM), and 13.1 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under 10/1000 μs waveform - designed for protecting MOSFETs and signal lines in industrial sensor units against inductive switching transients.
For engineers reviewing the TGL41-22-E3/96 datasheet, TGL41-22-E3/96 pinout, TGL41-22-E3/96 application, or TGL41-22-E3/96 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (30.6 V at IPPM), unidirectional polarity, 400 W peak pulse power rating, RoHS-compliant E3 termination, and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates exclusively in unidirectional mode, with cathode marked by a blue band and anode as the unmarked end. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable breakdown behavior and low incremental surge resistance, enabling fast response to transient events while maintaining low leakage (<5 μA at VWM) across the operating temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C.
The device delivers 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) up to 91 V, derating to 200 W above that threshold. It meets J-STD-020 MSL Level 1 with 250 °C lead-free reflow peak temperature tolerance and complies with JEDEC JESD201 Class 1A whisker testing for matte tin-plated terminals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 20.9 V / 23.1 V - defines reliable conduction onset under transient stress; ensures clamping begins before downstream IC damage thresholds. |
| VWM | 18.8 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before significant leakage; sets safe operating margin below breakdown. |
| IPPM | 13.1 A - peak surge current it safely shunts during 10/1000 μs transient; directly determines protection capability against common inductive spikes. |
| VC @ IPPM | 30.6 V - clamped voltage during full-rated surge; must remain below protected device's absolute maximum rating. |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling (≤0.01% duty cycle); enables robust suppression of short-duration energy bursts. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - maximum junction temperature; constrains thermal design and layout spacing in high-power density applications. |
| Polarity | Unidirectional - requires correct orientation in circuit; cathode (blue band) connects toward positive rail for standard supply-line protection. |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AB (GL41) plastic MELF package: cylindrical glass-body diode with solderable matte tin-plated ends; 0.105"–0.095" diameter (2.67–2.41 mm), 0.238" length (6.0 mm); blue band denotes cathode terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (blue band end) | Protected-side reference node | Connects to line being protected (e.g., VCC, signal trace); conducts when transient exceeds VBR. |
| Anode (unmarked end) | Return path to ground or lower potential | Typically tied to system ground or negative rail; completes current path during clamping event. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated junction | Ensures stable VBR over time and temperature; eliminates surface degradation risks seen in epoxy-passivated devices. |
| MSL Level 1 rating | Supports standard lead-free reflow without baking; simplifies SMT assembly for high-volume industrial manufacturing. |
| Low incremental surge resistance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast transients; improves clamping precision for sensitive 3.3 V or 5 V logic interfaces. |
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs) | Handles typical automotive load-dump and industrial relay-coil kickback surges without degradation. |
| RoHS-compliant E3 termination | Meets JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance; ensures long-term solder joint reliability in vibration-prone environments. |
Applications
| Industrial Sensor Signal Protection | Automotive Body Control Module Inputs |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-response parallel clamp after primary MOV or GDT, before input filter capacitor. Use Value: Responds in <1 ns to suppress residual spikes missed by slower primary protectors; 13.1 A IPPM handles residual energy after upstream attenuation. | Use Scenario: Protecting Ethernet PHY interface pins (e.g., MDI lines) from ESD and induced surges in enterprise switches and routers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Point-of-entry TVS on differential pairs, placed before common-mode chokes. Use Value: 30.6 V clamping ensures compliance with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 (15 kV air/8 kV contact) without distorting signal integrity at 100BASE-TX frequencies. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ22A | DO-214AA (SMB) package; 22 V nominal VBR; 200 W PPPM (10/1000 μs); higher capacitance (~150 pF). | Higher board footprint; less suitable for ultra-high-density layouts where MELF placement is preferred. | Select SMBJ22A only if PCB real estate allows larger SMD package and lower peak power suffices. |
| 1.5KE22A | DO-201AD axial-leaded package; same 22 V VBR rating; 1500 W PPPM; not RoHS-compliant by default. | Requires through-hole assembly; incompatible with automated SMT lines; unsuitable for compact consumer electronics. | Choose 1.5KE22A only for legacy through-hole designs where high-energy surge handling outweighs SMT compatibility. |
Compared with SMBJ22A and 1.5KE22A, the TGL41-22-E3/96 offers superior SMT manufacturability via MELF geometry, tighter VBR tolerance (±5%), and guaranteed RoHS/E3 compliance - making it optimal for new industrial and telecom designs requiring automated placement and long-term supply stability.

Its matte tin-plated terminals comply with J-STD-002 and JESD22-B102 solderability standards, and the E3 suffix confirms JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance - ensuring reliable interconnects in high-reliability industrial assemblies.
What is the clamping voltage of TGL41-22-E3/96 under full-rated surge current?
The clamping voltage (VC) of TGL41-22-E3/96 is 30.6 V at its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 13.1 A, tested with a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value represents the maximum voltage seen across the device during surge conduction and is critical for verifying compatibility with downstream ICs' absolute maximum ratings - for example, ensuring safe operation with 36 V-tolerant interface ICs.
Is TGL41-22-E3/96 unidirectional or bidirectional?
TGL41-22-E3/96 is unidirectional only, as explicitly stated in the Vishay datasheet. Polarity is indicated by a blue band marking the cathode, which must be oriented toward the positive side of the protected line. It does not provide symmetrical clamping and cannot substitute for bidirectional TVS devices in AC-coupled or differential signal applications without circuit redesign.
What package type does TGL41-22-E3/96 use, and why is it advantageous?
