Product details
Overview
TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for robust overvoltage protection in automotive and industrial power rails. It features a 20.9–23.1 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 18.8 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 13.1 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and clamps to ≤30.6 V at rated surge - deployed on 12 V battery lines, sensor supply inputs, and MOSFET gate drivers.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D datasheet, TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D pinout, TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D application, or TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 185 °C max junction temperature, low incremental resistance, fast response time, and MPG06 package compatibility with high-reliability automotive PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a clamping device in parallel with protected circuitry, triggering when reverse voltage exceeds its specified VBR range (20.9–23.1 V). Its low dynamic impedance ensures effective suppression of transients induced by inductive load switching or ISO 7637-2 pulses.
The device is characterized under standardized 10/1000 µs waveform conditions with 0.01 % duty cycle, supports 40 A non-repetitive forward surge (8.3 ms half-sine), and maintains stable clamping performance up to 150 °C junction temperature - validated per AEC-Q101 stress test requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 20.9 V / 23.1 V - defines reliable conduction onset window for overvoltage detection |
| VWM | 18.8 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage rises above 1 µA |
| VC @ IPPM | ≤30.6 V - clamped voltage during 13.1 A 10/1000 µs surge, limiting downstream stress |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak transient energy absorption capability under standard surge waveform |
| IFSM | 40 A - surge current handling for 8.3 ms half-sine, supporting ignition coil and relay driver protection |
| TJ max | +185 °C - enables operation in under-hood automotive environments without derating |
| Polarity | Unidirectional - protects against negative-going transients only; cathode marked by band |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ22A | Same VWM (18.8 V) and VC (30.6 V), but lower PPPM (400 W same), SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Limited to ambient-temperature industrial use; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Select when space-constrained layout prioritizes size over under-hood reliability |
| TPSMF22A | Identical VBR, VWM, VC, and PPPM; SOD-123FL package; AEC-Q101 qualified; slightly higher IPPM (13.5 A) | Lower profile (1.0 mm height vs. MPG06's 3.18 mm); better suited for ultra-thin modules | Choose when board height is constrained but automotive qualification and clamping performance must be retained |
Compared with SMAJ22A and TPSMF22A, the TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D offers superior thermal robustness via its larger MPG06 package and verified 185 °C junction rating - critical for sustained operation in engine compartment environments where ambient temperatures exceed 125 °C.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D?
The TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of +185 °C, enabling reliable operation in under-hood automotive locations and high-ambient industrial enclosures. This rating is validated per AEC-Q101 test conditions and allows full-rated performance up to 150 °C ambient when properly mounted on copper pour. The TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D maintains stable VBR and clamping characteristics across this full range.
Is TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D suitable for protecting CAN bus lines?
No - the TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D is a unidirectional TVS with 18.8 V stand-off voltage, optimized for 12 V power rail protection, not data-line applications. CAN bus requires bidirectional protection with lower VWM (typically 5–15 V) and tighter capacitance limits (<100 pF). Using TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D on CAN would cause signal distortion and violate ISO 11898-2 common-mode voltage limits.
Does TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes - the TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed in Vishay document 88404. It undergoes stress testing including high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), temperature cycling, and mechanical shock per automotive reliability protocols. The "HE3" suffix further certifies compliance with JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, required for automotive solder joints.
What is the clamping voltage of TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D at its rated peak pulse current?
The TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D clamps to a maximum of 30.6 V when subjected to its rated 13.1 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 3 in the datasheet and represents worst-case voltage seen by downstream circuitry during surge events - critical for ensuring protected ICs remain within absolute maximum ratings.
Can TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D replace SMPG22A in an existing design?
Yes - TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D is a direct functional and mechanical replacement for SMPG22A, sharing identical VBR, VWM, VC, PPPM, and MPG06 package dimensions. Both are AEC-Q101 qualified and share the same cathode band marking. No PCB changes are required, though users should verify solder profile compatibility given TMPG06-22AHE3_A/D's JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance specification.
