Product details
Overview
TMPG06-10-E3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in MPG06 package, designed for automotive-grade overvoltage protection. It features 9.0–11.0 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 15.0 V clamping voltage (VC) at 26.7 A peak pulse current, 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), and operates from –65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature - deployed on power rails and signal lines of automotive ECUs and sensor interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-10-E3/73 datasheet, TMPG06-10-E3/73 pinout, TMPG06-10-E3/73 application, or TMPG06-10-E3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 µs surge, low leakage (<5.0 µA at 8.10 V), AEC-Q101-compatibility via E3 suffix, and 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation on infinite heatsink.
Technical Context
This TVS diode uses patented PAR® construction with passivated junction and molded epoxy (UL 94V-0) to deliver high-temperature stability up to 185 °C and robust surge immunity. Its unidirectional polarity enables precise reverse-biased clamping during positive transients on DC supply lines.
It responds in <1 ps to voltage spikes induced by inductive load switching or ESD events, with low incremental surge resistance ensuring minimal voltage overshoot during 40 A IFSM half-sine surges (8.3 ms). The 0.073 %/°C VBR temperature coefficient guarantees predictable breakdown drift across automotive thermal cycles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR min/max | 9.0 V / 11.0 V at 1.0 mA test current - defines reliable conduction onset window for overvoltage detection |
| VC @ IPPM | 15.0 V at 26.7 A - maximum clamped voltage seen by protected IC during 400 W transient |
| ID @ VWM | <5.0 µA at 8.10 V stand-off - ensures negligible standby power loss in always-on automotive modules |
| PPPM | 400 W (10/1000 µs waveform) - sustains repetitive lightning/surge events without degradation |
| TJ max | +185 °C - supports under-hood placement near engines or power converters |
| VF @ 25 A | 3.5 V - limits forward conduction loss during bidirectional fault conditions |
| Package | MPG06 - surface-mount DO-219AB outline, 9.5 mm body length, matte tin-plated leads |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ10A | Lower PPPM (400 W same), but higher VC = 16.0 V at 24.9 A; SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Limited to non-automotive industrial use - not AEC-Q101 qualified; lower TJ max = 150 °C | Select when space-constrained PCB layout prioritizes size over under-hood thermal margin |
| SMCJ10A | Same VBR range, higher PPPM = 1500 W, larger SMC package; VC = 17.0 V at 87.8 A | Used where higher surge margin required (e.g., 24 V commercial vehicles); not E3-grade qualified | Choose for heavy-duty truck or off-highway equipment needing >1 kW surge headroom |
Compared with SMAJ10A and SMCJ10A, TMPG06-10-E3/73 delivers automotive-grade reliability (AEC-Q101), superior high-temperature operation (+185 °C), and optimized clamping (15.0 V) in a thermally robust MPG06 package - making it the preferred choice for engine bay and ADAS domain controllers.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of TMPG06-10-E3/73 at its rated peak pulse current?
The TMPG06-10-E3/73 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 15.0 V at 26.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM), measured under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value ensures downstream ICs like microcontrollers and transceivers remain within safe operating voltage limits during surge events. The clamping performance is guaranteed across the full –65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range specified for TMPG06-10-E3/73.
Is TMPG06-10-E3/73 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, TMPG06-10-E3/73 carries the E3 suffix denoting Vishay's commercial-grade AEC-Q101 qualification. It meets the stress test requirements for transient voltage suppressors in automotive environments, including high-temperature operation up to +185 °C, robust surge immunity, and long-term reliability under thermal cycling. This makes TMPG06-10-E3/73 suitable for engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS modules.
What does the "E3/73" suffix mean in TMPG06-10-E3/73?
The "E3" denotes Vishay's commercial-grade AEC-Q101 qualification level, confirming automotive reliability testing compliance. The "/73" refers to the specific tape-and-reel packaging configuration: 73 indicates 13-inch diameter reel with 5500 units per reel, using paper tape per industry-standard delivery mode. This packaging format ensures consistent automated placement for TMPG06-10-E3/73 in high-volume SMT assembly lines.
How does TMPG06-10-E3/73 compare to bidirectional TVS diodes?
TMPG06-10-E3/73 is unidirectional only, optimized for DC power line protection where polarity is fixed - offering lower leakage (<5.0 µA) and tighter VBR tolerance than equivalent bidirectional parts. Unlike bidirectional TVS devices, TMPG06-10-E3/73 cannot protect AC or differential signals without external circuitry. Its design prioritizes efficiency and precision in single-polarity automotive supply rails.
What is the thermal resistance junction-to-lead (RθJL) for TMPG06-10-E3/73?
Vishay does not publish RθJL explicitly for TMPG06-10-E3/73 in Document 88404; instead, thermal performance is characterized via the power derating curve (Figure 5), specifying 1.0 W dissipation at TL = 75 °C on an infinite heatsink. For layout-level thermal design, engineers should reference the MPG06 package outline and apply standard JEDEC PCB copper area guidelines - critical for maintaining TMPG06-10-E3/73 within its +185 °C TJ limit.
