Product details
Overview
TMPG06-13-E3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in MPG06 package, designed for automotive-grade surge protection with 11.7 V to 14.3 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 19.0 V clamping voltage at 21.1 A IPPM, and 185 °C maximum junction temperature. It protects MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor signal lines against inductive switching transients in automotive and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-13-E3/73 datasheet, TMPG06-13-E3/73 pinout, TMPG06-13-E3/73 application, or TMPG06-13-E3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified unidirectional polarity, 1.0 µA max reverse leakage at 10.5 V stand-off, RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated leads, and AEC-Q101 qualification via HE3-grade lineage - critical for under-hood ECU and ADAS sensor interface designs.
Technical Context
This TVS diode employs Vishay's patented PAR® construction for low incremental surge resistance and fast response time (<1 ns), enabling effective suppression of fast-rising transients from load dump or relay bounce. Its 10/1000 µs waveform rating supports repetitive 0.01% duty cycle operation with thermal derating above 25 °C ambient.
The device operates across –65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range and maintains stable VBR with 0.081 %/°C temperature coefficient. Clamping performance is validated at 21.1 A peak pulse current (IPPM), delivering 19.0 V VC - ensuring safe voltage limiting for 12 V automotive electronics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR min/max | 11.7 V / 14.3 V at 1.0 mA test current - defines reliable conduction onset window for 12 V system overvoltage detection |
| VWM | 10.5 V stand-off voltage - ensures no conduction during normal 12 V rail operation, minimizing standby leakage |
| ID @ VWM | ≤1.0 µA at 25 °C - guarantees negligible power loss and signal integrity in always-on sensor interfaces |
| VC @ IPPM | 19.0 V at 21.1 A - clamps transients below IC absolute maximum ratings (e.g., <20 V for many automotive MCUs) |
| PPPM | 400 W (10/1000 µs) - sustains high-energy surges from inductive loads without degradation |
| TJ max | +185 °C - enables placement near hot components (e.g., power stages, engine controllers) without thermal derating |
| Package | MPG06 - surface-mount DO-214AC outline with 9.5 mm body length, UL 94V-0 epoxy, and J-STD-002B solderable leads |
Pinout & Package

| 0.081 %/°C VBR tempco | Ensures predictable breakdown threshold across under-hood temperature extremes (–40 °C to +150 °C ambient) |
| ≤1.0 µA reverse leakage @ VWM | Prevents signal distortion and battery drain in always-on automotive modules (e.g., CAN wake-up receivers) |
| AEC-Q101 qualified lineage (E3 suffix) | E3 denotes commercial grade derived from HE3 high-reliability process - validated for automotive stress profiles |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial Motor Drive Interface |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ12A | 12 V bidirectional, 600 W PPPM, 20.1 V VC @ 30.2 A, DO-214AA package | Supports AC-coupled signals and bipolar transients; higher clamping but larger footprint | Select when bidirectional protection or higher surge margin is required; verify PCB pad compatibility with SMBJ outline |
| SMCJ13A | 13 V bidirectional, 1500 W PPPM, 21.5 V VC @ 69.8 A, DO-214AB package | Higher power handling for severe load dump; 2× larger body than MPG06 | Choose for heavy-duty industrial motor controls where 400 W is insufficient; requires layout revision for SMC outline |
Compared with SMBJ12A and SMCJ13A, the TMPG06-13-E3/73 offers optimized size-to-power ratio for space-constrained automotive modules, unidirectional precision for DC-biased lines, and proven thermal stability up to +185 °C - making it preferred for ECU, ADAS, and sensor hub deployments where footprint and junction temperature margins are critical.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for TMPG06-13-E3/73?
The TMPG06-13-E3/73 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage range of 11.7 V to 14.3 V at 1.0 mA test current, per Vishay Document Number 88404. This ±12.5% tolerance ensures reliable triggering across manufacturing lots and temperature extremes, supporting consistent overvoltage protection in automotive 12 V systems where nominal rail can vary from 9 V to 16 V.
Is TMPG06-13-E3/73 suitable for AEC-Q101 compliance?
The TMPG06-13-E3/73 carries the E3 suffix indicating commercial-grade qualification derived from Vishay's AEC-Q101-qualified HE3 process. While E3 itself is not certified, its design, materials, and test flow inherit AEC-Q101 stress profiles - confirmed by Vishay's documentation for the TMPG06 family. For full qualification, the HE3 variant (e.g., TMPG06-13HE3/73) is recommended.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TMPG06-13-E3/73 under surge conditions?
The TMPG06-13-E3/73 delivers a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 19.0 V at 21.1 A peak pulse current (IPPM) using the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and ensures protected downstream ICs - such as automotive MCUs with 20 V absolute maximum ratings - remain within safe operating limits during transient events.
Does TMPG06-13-E3/73 have bidirectional capability?
No, TMPG06-13-E3/73 is unidirectional only, as explicitly stated in the "Features" section of Vishay Document Number 88404. Its cathode band marks the polarity, and it conducts only when the cathode is positive relative to the anode. For bidirectional protection, Vishay recommends variants like TMPG06-13A or alternatives such as SMBJ12A.
What is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) for TMPG06-13-E3/73?
Vishay does not publish RθJA for TMPG06-13-E3/73 in Document Number 88404; instead, thermal performance is characterized via the power derating curve (Figure 5) and maximum junction temperature (185 °C). The device is rated for 1.0 W power dissipation at TL = 75 °C on an infinite heatsink, and its thermal design must follow Vishay's recommended pad layout and copper area guidelines for MPG06 packages.
