Product details
Overview
TGL41-24-E3/96 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-213AB (GL41) plastic MELF package, with 22.8 V to 25.2 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 20.5 V stand-off voltage (VWM), and 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs). It protects MOSFETs and ICs against inductive switching transients in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the TGL41-24-E3/96 datasheet, TGL41-24-E3/96 pinout, TGL41-24-E3/96 application, or TGL41-24-E3/96 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping voltage (33.2 V at 12.0 A), low incremental surge resistance, fast response time, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated terminals meeting J-STD-002 solderability.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates exclusively in unidirectional polarity, with cathode marked by a blue band. Its glass-passivated junction ensures stable breakdown characteristics and low leakage (<5 µA at VWM), while the DO-213AB package supports automated placement and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability rating.
Rated for -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature, it delivers 400 W peak pulse power up to 91 V and derates to 200 W above that threshold. The 0.097 %/°C temperature coefficient of VBR enables predictable voltage-clamping behavior across thermal operating ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 22.8 V / 25.2 V - Ensures reliable conduction onset above circuit's normal operating voltage while avoiding false triggering |
| VWM | 20.5 V - Maximum continuous reverse voltage the device blocks without significant leakage current |
| VC @ IPPM | 33.2 V - Clamped voltage during 12.0 A transient, defining worst-case overvoltage seen by protected circuitry |
| PPPM | 400 W (≤91 V), 200 W (>91 V) - Peak transient energy absorption capability under standardized 10/1000 µs waveform |
| IFSM | 40 A - Surge current handling for 8.3 ms half-sine wave, supporting robustness against repetitive line surges |
| Junction Temp Range | -55 °C to +150 °C - Enables deployment in automotive engine bays and industrial motor drives without thermal derating loss |
| Package | DO-213AB (GL41) - MELF-style cylindrical package optimized for high-reliability automated assembly and thermal dissipation |
Pinout & Package
DO-213AB (GL41) is a two-terminal plastic MELF package with solderable matte tin-plated ends. The blue band denotes the cathode (positive terminal under reverse-bias clamping operation); the anode is the unmarked end.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Cathode (blue band) | Transient current sink node | Connected to protected line; conducts surge current to ground when VLINE exceeds VBR |
| Anode | Reference/return path | Typically tied to system ground or low-impedance return plane; completes clamping current path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Glass-passivated junction | Stable VBR tolerance (±5 %) and <5 µA leakage at VWM, ensuring long-term reliability in humid environments |
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Withstands high-energy transients from relay coil de-energization or motor commutation without degradation |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.31) | Minimizes overvoltage stress on downstream ICs-critical for 24 V industrial controllers with 30 V absolute max ratings |
| MSL Level 1 (250 °C peak reflow) | Compatible with standard lead-free SMT reflow profiles without preconditioning or special handling |
| RoHS-compliant E3 suffix | Meets JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance and EU Directive 2011/65/EU for hazardous substance restriction |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | 24 V PLC Input Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protection of gate drivers and current-sense amplifiers against back-EMF spikes during IGBT switching in variable-frequency drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS placed across DC bus or gate drive lines to clamp transients before they reach sensitive control ICs. Use Value: Limits transient voltage to ≤33.2 V, preventing latch-up or oxide breakdown in 3.3 V/5 V logic interfaces sharing the same PCB ground plane. | Use Scenario: Safeguarding digital input optocouplers and level-shifters in programmable logic controller modules powered from 24 V DC rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standoff protection element between field-side wiring and isolated signal conditioning circuitry. Use Value: Withstands repeated 40 A surge events per IEC 61000-4-5 (Combination Wave) while maintaining <5 µA leakage at 20.5 V nominal bus voltage. |
| Automotive Body Control Units | Telecom Power Supply Front-Ends |
Use Scenario: Suppressing load-dump and jump-start transients on 12 V–24 V auxiliary power nets feeding microcontrollers and CAN transceivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage clamp on main power rail upstream of LDO regulators and PMICs. Use Value: Fast response time and 150 °C max junction temperature enable operation in under-hood environments without thermal shutdown. | Use Scenario: Protecting AC-DC converter secondary-side rectifiers and supervisor ICs from lightning-induced surges on telecom-grade 48 V DC distribution buses. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side transient suppressor located after isolation barrier but before point-of-load regulation. Use Value: 400 W pulse rating and 0.097 %/°C VBR TC ensure consistent clamping performance across wide ambient temperature swings typical in central office deployments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ24A | DO-214AA (SMB) package; 3.5 mm × 4.6 mm footprint vs. GL41's 3.0 mm × 6.0 mm; 300 W PPPM (10/1000 µs) | Higher board area usage; lower peak power handling; better thermal mass for sustained surges | Select SMBJ24A only if PCB layout accommodates larger footprint and system-level testing confirms 300 W suffices |
| 1.5KE24A | DO-201AD (Axial) package; 5.6 mm diameter × 9.5 mm length; 1500 W PPPM but slower response due to higher junction capacitance (~150 pF) | Not suitable for high-speed data lines; preferred for bulk front-end AC input protection | Choose 1.5KE24A for primary AC-line protection where speed is secondary to energy absorption capacity |
Compared with SMBJ24A and 1.5KE24A, the TGL41-24-E3/96 offers optimal balance of compact MELF form factor, 400 W pulse capability, and sub-nanosecond response-making it ideal for space-constrained 24 V DC control nodes requiring precise clamping without layout redesign.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range specified for TGL41-24-E3/96?
The TGL41-24-E3/96 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 22.8 V to 25.2 V at 1.0 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards. This tight ±5 % tolerance ensures predictable turn-on behavior in 24 V system protection designs and avoids nuisance conduction during normal operation.
Does TGL41-24-E3/96 support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes, TGL41-24-E3/96 is rated MSL Level 1 with a maximum peak reflow temperature of 250 °C, fully compatible with standard lead-free soldering profiles. Its matte tin-plated terminals meet J-STD-002 and JESD22-B102 solderability requirements, and the E3 suffix confirms compliance with JESD201 Class 1A whisker resistance testing.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TGL41-24-E3/96 under transient conditions?
The TGL41-24-E3/96 exhibits a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 33.2 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 12.0 A (10/1000 µs waveform). This value defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events and is critical for ensuring compatibility with 30 V-rated downstream components.
Can TGL41-24-E3/96 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, TGL41-24-E3/96 is strictly unidirectional and must be installed with the blue band (cathode) oriented toward the side of the circuit to be protected. Bidirectional operation requires a dedicated symmetric TVS like the TGL41-24CA; using this part in reverse orientation will not provide effective clamping and may cause failure.
What is the operating temperature range for TGL41-24-E3/96?
TGL41-24-E3/96 is rated for an operating junction and storage temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C. This wide range supports deployment in demanding environments such as under-hood automotive electronics, industrial motor control cabinets, and outdoor telecom enclosures without thermal derating penalties up to 125 °C ambient.
