Product details
Overview
TGL41-82A-E3/96 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode in GL41 (DO-213AB) plastic MELF package, designed for clamping voltage transients on signal and power lines. It features 77.9 V to 86.1 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 70.1 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 113 V maximum clamping voltage (VC) at 3.5 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs). It protects MOSFETs and ICs in industrial sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TGL41-82A-E3/96 datasheet, TGL41-82A-E3/96 pinout, TGL41-82A-E3/96 application, or TGL41-82A-E3/96 equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, DO-213AB package compatibility, 113 V clamping performance at 3.5 A, thermal derating above 25 °C, and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated leads per J-STD-002.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping protection device using an avalanche junction structure with glass passivated chip construction. Its unidirectional polarity and blue-band cathode marking define forward conduction direction during surge events, while its low incremental surge resistance ensures minimal voltage overshoot under transient stress.
The device delivers 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) up to 91 V and 200 W above that threshold, with junction temperature rated from –55 °C to +150 °C and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity. Clamping behavior is characterized by a 0.108 %/°C temperature coefficient of VBR, enabling predictable voltage shift across operating range.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| P4SMA82A-E3/96 | Same VWM (70.1 V) and VC (113 V), but in SMA package (DO-214AC); 1.0 W steady-state power vs. 1.0 W for TGL41-82A-E3/96 | SMA allows higher board-level mechanical robustness and easier manual rework; less suitable for ultra-high-density MELF layouts | Select P4SMA82A-E3/96 when board space permits larger footprint and hand-soldering is required |
| SMAJ82A-E3/52 | Identical electrical specs but in SMA package with different tape/reel configuration (7" reel, 5000 pcs); same 400 W PPPM rating | Optimized for high-volume SMT lines using 13" reels; no MELF placement compatibility | Select SMAJ82A-E3/52 for automated pick-and-place systems already configured for SMA feeders |
Compared with TGL41-82A-E3/96, P4SMA82A-E3/96 offers identical clamping performance in a more serviceable package, while SMAJ82A-E3/52 provides identical specs with alternate logistics packaging-neither is pin-compatible due to differing DO-213AB vs. DO-214AC footprints.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of TGL41-82A-E3/96 under standard test conditions?
The TGL41-82A-E3/96 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 113 V when subjected to a 10/1000 µs waveform with a peak pulse current (IPPM) of 3.5 A. This value is measured at TA = 25 °C and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events. The TGL41-82A-E3/96 maintains this clamping performance across its specified operating temperature range.
Is TGL41-82A-E3/96 suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, TGL41-82A-E3/96 is unidirectional only, with cathode identified by a blue band. It conducts and clamps only when the cathode is positive relative to the anode. For bidirectional protection, a separate symmetrical TVS array or dual-diode configuration is required. The TGL41-82A-E3/96 datasheet explicitly states "Available in unidirectional polarity only" and does not specify reverse standoff or clamping behavior.
What is the maximum operating temperature for TGL41-82A-E3/96?
The TGL41-82A-E3/96 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +150 °C and a storage temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C. Thermal design must ensure junction temperature remains within this limit under worst-case power dissipation, including ambient temperature, PCB copper area, and airflow. Derating curves in the datasheet show power reduction above 25 °C ambient.
Does TGL41-82A-E3/96 meet RoHS and lead-free requirements?
Yes, the TGL41-82A-E3/96 is RoHS compliant and features matte tin-plated leads qualified per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102. The "E3" suffix confirms compliance with JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing, ensuring long-term reliability in high-humidity or high-temperature environments without tin whisker growth.
What package type does TGL41-82A-E3/96 use, and how is polarity marked?
TGL41-82A-E3/96 uses the GL41 (DO-213AB) plastic MELF package - a cylindrical surface-mount device with metallized end caps. Polarity is marked by a single blue band on the cathode end; the unmarked end is the anode. This marking aligns with industry-standard MELF orientation and enables automated optical inspection during placement.
