Product details
Overview
TMPG06-24AHE3/54 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 22.8 V to 25.2 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 20.5 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 12.0 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and clamps to ≤33.2 V at rated surge - deployed on engine control units, sensor interfaces, and 24 V DC power inputs.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-24AHE3/54 datasheet, TMPG06-24AHE3/54 pinout, TMPG06-24AHE3/54 application, or TMPG06-24AHE3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 185 °C maximum junction temperature, low incremental resistance, fast response time, and compatibility with high-reliability 24 V automotive systems requiring IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a clamping device in parallel with protected circuitry, activating when reverse voltage exceeds VWM (20.5 V) and entering avalanche breakdown above VBR (min 22.8 V). Its low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.31) and 0.094 %/°C VBR temperature coefficient ensure stable protection across -65 °C to +185 °C ambient conditions.
Rated for 400 W non-repetitive surge handling per 10/1000 µs waveform at 0.01 % duty cycle, it sustains 40 A single half-sine (8.3 ms) forward surge and dissipates 1.0 W continuously on an infinite heatsink at TL = 75 °C. The MPG06 package supports soldering up to 275 °C for 10 s and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 22.8 V / 25.2 V - defines precise avalanche onset range for reliable triggering without false trips under normal 24 V rail transients |
| VWM | 20.5 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage; ensures no conduction during nominal 24 V system operation |
| VC @ IPPM | ≤33.2 V - clamping voltage at 12.0 A surge; limits downstream IC stress to safe levels during ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a/b events |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power rating (10/1000 µs); enables suppression of high-energy load dump and inductive switching spikes |
| IFSM | 40 A - peak forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); withstands repeated motor driver or relay coil de-energization surges |
| TJ max. | +185 °C - extended junction temperature rating supports under-hood automotive placement without derating penalties |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - certified for automotive-grade reliability including HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD testing per AEC standard |
Pinout & Package
Package: MPG06 - molded epoxy case with matte tin-plated leads, UL 94 V-0 rated, 0.100" (2.54 mm) lead pitch, cathode indicated by color band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry / surge return path | Connected to ground or low-impedance return plane; carries full surge current during clamping |
| Cathode | Protected line connection / voltage reference node | Connected to the line being protected (e.g., 24 V supply rail); reverse-biased during normal operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Unidirectional polarity | Enables targeted protection of positive-rail circuits without interfering with DC bias or signal integrity on grounded-return paths |
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Handles high-energy transients from 24 V load dumps per ISO 16750-2 and SAE J1113-11 without degradation |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive use including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock - suitable for ECU, ADAS, and body control modules |
| Low clamping voltage (33.2 V @ 12 A) | Provides tighter voltage limiting than generic 24 V TVS devices, reducing risk of MOSFET gate oxide failure and MCU brownout |
| 185 °C max junction temperature | Supports direct mounting near heat sources (e.g., power converters) without thermal derating in under-hood environments |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial 24 V PLC Input Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ24A | Lower PPPM (400 W same), but higher VC (38.9 V @ 10.3 A); SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Less effective clamping margin for 24 V systems; unsuitable for sustained high-temp under-hood use due to 150 °C TJ max | Select only for space-constrained consumer-grade 24 V designs where AEC-Q101 is not required |
| SMCJ24A | Same VBR/VWM range, higher PPPM (1500 W), larger SMC package; TJ max = 175 °C | Better surge margin for extreme load dump scenarios, but requires larger PCB area and lacks AEC-Q101 certification | Prefer for industrial 24 V systems needing higher energy absorption, but verify qualification status if automotive deployment is planned |
Compared with SMAJ24A and SMCJ24A, the TMPG06-24AHE3/54 delivers optimal balance of AEC-Q101 compliance, 185 °C thermal capability, and tight 33.2 V clamping - making it the preferred choice for production automotive electronics where reliability, temperature resilience, and precise voltage limiting are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for TMPG06-24AHE3/54?
The TMPG06-24AHE3/54 has a specified breakdown voltage range of 22.8 V to 25.2 V at 1.0 mA test current (VBR), representing ±5 % tolerance around the nominal 24 V rating. This tight distribution ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports robust design margins in 24 V automotive systems.
Is TMPG06-24AHE3/54 suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No - the TMPG06-24AHE3/54 is unidirectional only, with cathode marked by a color band. It protects against positive-going transients on a positive rail referenced to ground. For bidirectional protection (e.g., data lines), a separate symmetric TVS or dual-diode configuration is required; the TMPG06-24AHE3/54 does not provide reverse-polarity clamping.
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature for TMPG06-24AHE3/54?
The TMPG06-24AHE3/54 supports solder dip at 275 °C maximum for 10 seconds per JESD22-B106, and its matte tin-plated leads comply with J-STD-002 and JESD22-B102 for solderability. Reflow profiles must stay within JEDEC J-STD-020 limits for discrete plastic packages, with peak temperature not exceeding 260 °C for ≤30 s.
Does TMPG06-24AHE3/54 meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes - the TMPG06-24AHE3/54 is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed in Vishay document 88404. It undergoes stress testing for high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, unbiased highly accelerated stress test (UHAST), and electrostatic discharge per AEC-Q101 Rev D, making it approved for automotive powertrain and chassis applications.
How does the clamping voltage of TMPG06-24AHE3/54 compare to its breakdown voltage?
The TMPG06-24AHE3/54 clamps to ≤33.2 V at its rated 12.0 A peak pulse current (IPPM), while its minimum breakdown voltage is 22.8 V. This yields a clamping ratio (VC/VBR(min)) of ~1.46, indicating efficient voltage limiting with minimal overshoot - critical for protecting 3.3 V or 5 V ICs powered from a 24 V rail via DC-DC conversion.
