Product details
Overview
TMPG06-24-E3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in MPG06 package, designed for automotive-grade surge protection with 21.6 V to 26.4 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 34.2 V clamping voltage (VC) at 11.5 A peak pulse current, 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), and 185 °C maximum junction temperature. It protects MOSFETs, ICs, and sensor signal lines against inductive switching transients in automotive ECUs.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-24-E3/73 datasheet, TMPG06-24-E3/73 pinout, TMPG06-24-E3/73 application, or TMPG06-24-E3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 µs surges, low leakage (<1.0 µA at 19.4 V), AEC-Q101-compatibility via E3 suffix, and UL 94V-0 epoxy packaging for harsh-environment reliability.
Technical Context
This TVS diode employs patented PAR® construction for stable clamping under repetitive surge stress and operates across -65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range. Its 10/1000 µs waveform response delivers 34.2 V clamping at 11.5 A IPPM while maintaining <1.0 µA reverse leakage at 19.4 V stand-off voltage.
The device features matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002B and JESD22-B102D, and its MPG06 molded epoxy case meets UL 94V-0 flammability rating. Polarity is marked by cathode band; it is not bidirectional and has no forward voltage specification beyond 3.5 V at 25 A.
Key Specifications

Use Scenario: Suppresses back-EMF spikes from brushed DC motors in washing machines and HVAC blowers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Parallel-mounted across motor terminals to shunt inductive energy into ground during commutation. Use Value: Withstands 40 A non-repetitive surge (IFSM), eliminating contact arcing and extending relay/motor life. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ24A | DO-214AC package, 24 V nominal VBR, 38.9 V VC @ 10.3 A, 400 W PPPM, AEC-Q101 not specified | Lacks automotive qualification; higher clamping voltage reduces margin for 3.3 V/5 V logic protection | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs AEC-Q101 requirement and system VCC > 39 V |
| TPSMA6.8A-Q | DO-214AC, 6.8 V VBR, 11.2 V VC @ 35.7 A, 400 W, AEC-Q101 qualified, lower voltage grade | Designed for low-voltage logic rails (e.g., USB, I²C), not 12–24 V power domains | Use only for sub-12 V signal-line protection; unsuitable for TMPG06-24-E3/73's 19.4 V stand-off requirement |
Compared with SMAJ24A and TPSMA6.8A-Q, TMPG06-24-E3/73 provides tighter VBR tolerance (±10 % vs ±15 %), lower clamping ratio (1.59 vs 1.62), and guaranteed AEC-Q101 compliance-critical for under-hood automotive deployment where thermal stability and long-term reliability are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the clamping voltage of TMPG06-24-E3/73 at its rated peak pulse current?
The TMPG06-24-E3/73 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 34.2 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 11.5 A under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 and ensures downstream components see no more than 34.2 V during surge events. The clamping performance is validated across the full -65 °C to +185 °C operating range, making TMPG06-24-E3/73 suitable for engine compartment applications where thermal stability is critical.
Is TMPG06-24-E3/73 AEC-Q101 qualified?
Yes, TMPG06-24-E3/73 carries the E3 suffix, indicating commercial-grade qualification per AEC-Q101. Vishay subjects this part to stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias (HTGB), high-temperature operating life (HTOL), and temperature cycling (TCT) to validate reliability for automotive electronics. The E3 designation confirms full compliance-not just similarity-with AEC-Q101 requirements, distinguishing TMPG06-24-E3/73 from non-qualified equivalents like SMAJ24A. Always verify lot-specific certification documentation when qualifying for production.
What does the "73" in TMPG06-24-E3/73 signify?
The "73" in TMPG06-24-E3/73 is Vishay's internal package code denoting tape-and-reel packaging in 13-inch diameter reels with a base quantity of 5500 units. It corresponds to the preferred delivery mode specified in Vishay's ordering information for the TMPG06 family. This differs from the "54" code used for other variants (e.g., TMPG06-6.8A-E3/54) and confirms the physical packaging format-not electrical or thermal characteristics-of the TMPG06-24-E3/73 you receive from Aetrix Electronics.
Can TMPG06-24-E3/73 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, TMPG06-24-E3/73 is unidirectional only, as explicitly stated in its datasheet features. It conducts in reverse breakdown to clamp positive transients on the cathode side but offers no protection against negative-going surges on the anode. For bidirectional protection, two devices must be connected in series opposing configuration-or a dedicated bidirectional TVS such as SMBJ24CA must be selected. Using TMPG06-24-E3/73 in a bidirectional role risks catastrophic failure during negative transients due to lack of reverse standoff capability.
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for TMPG06-24-E3/73?
The TMPG06-24-E3/73 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of +185 °C, verified per its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This allows operation in high-thermal-stress locations such as automotive engine control units without derating up to that limit. Derating begins above 25 °C ambient per Figure 2 in the datasheet, and power dissipation drops linearly to zero at 185 °C. This rating exceeds standard industrial TVS diodes (typically 150 °C), confirming TMPG06-24-E3/73's suitability for under-hood automotive use where sustained high temperatures occur.
