Product details
Overview
TMPG06-11HE3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for robust overvoltage protection in automotive and industrial power rails and signal lines. It features a 10.5 V to 11.6 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 9.40 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 15.6 V clamping voltage at 25.6 A peak pulse current, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-11HE3/73 datasheet, TMPG06-11HE3/73 pinout, TMPG06-11HE3/73 application, or TMPG06-11HE3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 185 °C maximum junction temperature, low 0.075 %/°C VBR temperature coefficient, 1.0 µA max reverse leakage at VWM, unidirectional polarity with cathode band marking, and MPG06 package compatibility with high-reliability soldering per JESD 22-B106.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a clamping device that transitions from high-impedance blocking to low-impedance conduction when transient voltage exceeds its breakdown threshold. Its silicon avalanche structure delivers sub-nanosecond response time and low incremental resistance (< 0.5 Ω typical), enabling effective suppression of ESD, load dump, and inductive switching spikes.
The device is rated for repetitive 10/1000 µs waveform pulses at 0.01 % duty cycle and supports surge currents up to 40 A (8.3 ms half-sine). Thermal design must account for 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation on infinite heatsink at TL = 75 °C and derating above TA = 25 °C per Figure 2.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 10.5 V / 11.6 V - defines precise clamping onset range at 1.0 mA test current; ensures reliable triggering before downstream IC damage |
| VWM | 9.40 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage; sets safe margin below breakdown for stable DC rail protection |
| VC @ IPPM | 15.6 V at 25.6 A - clamped voltage during 400 W transient; determines worst-case stress on protected circuitry |
| IPPM | 25.6 A - peak pulse current capability under 10/1000 µs waveform; quantifies surge energy handling capacity |
| TJ max. | +185 °C - enables operation in high-temperature environments such as automotive engine control units |
| Temperature coefficient of VBR | 0.075 %/°C - low drift ensures stable clamping performance across wide ambient temperature ranges |
| Polarity | Unidirectional - protects against positive transients only; requires correct orientation with cathode toward protected line |
Pinout & Package
Package: MPG06 - molded epoxy case with matte tin-plated leads, UL 94 V-0 rated, 0.100" (2.54 mm) lead pitch, 1.0" minimum tape reel length, RoHS-compliant and AEC-Q101 qualified. Cathode indicated by color band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Current entry point during forward conduction | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., ground or return path); not used in normal reverse-biased TVS operation |
| Cathode | Current exit point during reverse clamping | Connected to protected line; color band identifies this terminal; carries full transient current to ground during clamping |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Supports high-energy transients common in automotive load-dump events without degradation |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock |
| Low 1.0 µA max reverse leakage at VWM | Minimizes standby power loss and avoids false triggering in low-power sensor interfaces |
| Solder dip rated to 275 °C for 10 s | Enables compatibility with lead-free reflow and wave soldering processes without delamination |
| 0.075 %/°C VBR tempco | Ensures ±5 % VBR variation over -65 °C to +185 °C junction range, critical for under-hood stability |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 12 V battery-fed ECUs from ISO 7637-2 load dump transients up to 60 V.

Use Scenario: Primary protection for Ethernet PHY interface lines exposed to induced surges in outdoor telecom cabinets. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete TVS mounted at board edge to shunt common-mode transients before magnetics and PHY IC. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification ensures long-term reliability in thermally cycled outdoor enclosures; 185 °C TJ max supports sealed housing operation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ11A | Same VWM (9.4 V), but lower PPPM (400 W same), higher VC (18.2 V), SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Less suitable for high-temperature automotive under-hood use due to lower TJ max (150 °C vs. 185 °C) | Select SMAJ11A only for space-constrained consumer designs where thermal derating is manageable |
| SMCJ11A | Same VWM and VC, but higher PPPM (1500 W), larger SMC package, same AEC-Q101 qualification | Overqualified for 400 W requirements; adds cost and board area without benefit for standard load-dump compliance | Choose SMCJ11A only if future design expansion to higher-energy transients (e.g., ISO 16750-2) is anticipated |
Compared with SMAJ11A and SMCJ11A, the TMPG06-11HE3/73 delivers optimal balance of AEC-Q101 reliability, 185 °C thermal capability, and compact MPG06 packaging-making it the preferred choice for automotive and industrial applications requiring validated high-temperature surge resilience without over-engineering.

The TMPG06-11HE3/73 maintains specified electrical parameters up to this limit when properly heatsinked.
Is TMPG06-11HE3/73 compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
Yes, the TMPG06-11HE3/73 is qualified for lead-free reflow and wave soldering, with matte tin-plated leads meeting J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability standards. Its molding compound withstands solder dip at 275 °C for up to 10 seconds per JESD 22-B106, ensuring robustness during manufacturing. The TMPG06-11HE3/73 also passes JESD 201 Class 2 whisker testing, confirming long-term interconnect reliability.
How does the clamping voltage of TMPG06-11HE3/73 compare to its breakdown voltage?
The TMPG06-11HE3/73 has a breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 10.5 V to 11.6 V at 1.0 mA, while its maximum clamping voltage (VC) is 15.6 V at 25.6 A peak pulse current. This 4.0–5.1 V differential reflects the device's low incremental resistance and efficient energy absorption. The TMPG06-11HE3/73 maintains this clamping performance across its full operating temperature range, supporting predictable system-level protection design.
Does TMPG06-11HE3/73 meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes, the TMPG06-11HE3/73 is AEC-Q101 qualified, as explicitly stated in the Vishay datasheet (Document Number: 88404, Revision: 17-Sep-2021).
