Product details
Overview
TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B 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 25.7–28.4 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 23.1 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 37.5 V clamping voltage (VC) at 10.7 A peak pulse current, 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood automotive applications.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B datasheet, TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B pinout, TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B application, or TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 µs transients, high-temperature junction stability up to +185 °C, unidirectional polarity with cathode band marking, and compatibility with reflow and wave soldering per J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a shunt-clamping device that remains non-conductive below VWM = 23.1 V and rapidly avalanches above VBR = 25.7–28.4 V to limit transient voltages. Its low incremental resistance and sub-nanosecond response time ensure effective suppression of ESD, load dump, and inductive switching spikes.
The device is rated for 40 A non-repetitive forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine), 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation at TL = 75 °C, and operates across -65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature - validated under AEC-Q101 stress conditions including temperature cycling, HTRB, and UHAST.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 25.7 V / 28.4 V - ensures reliable avalanche initiation above system nominal voltage while avoiding false triggering |
| VWM | 23.1 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage compatible with 24 V automotive systems |
| VC @ IPPM | 37.5 V at 10.7 A - clamping voltage limits protected circuit stress during 10/1000 µs transients |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling capability for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, and 5a compliance |
| IFSM | 40 A - surge current rating supports protection against 8.3 ms inductive kick events |
| TJ max | +185 °C - enables operation in high-temperature engine bay environments without derating |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - meets automotive-grade reliability requirements for humidity, temperature, and mechanical stress |
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. Cathode indicated by color band.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| Cathode | Reverse-biased clamping terminal | Marked with color band; connected to protected line (e.g., 24 V rail or signal trace) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Peak pulse power | 400 W (10/1000 µs) - sustains high-energy transients without failure in automotive load-dump scenarios |
| Clamping ratio (VC/VBR) | ~1.33 - low ratio minimizes voltage overshoot during clamping, reducing stress on downstream ICs |
| Temperature coefficient of VBR | +0.096 %/°C - predictable VBR drift enables stable protection across full operating range |
| Solderability | Matte tin plating, J-STD-002/JESD 22-B102 compliant - ensures reliable wetting in automated assembly |
| Whisker resistance | JESD 201 Class 2 qualified - prevents tin whisker growth in long-life automotive modules |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Signal Line Protection |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role: Across-motor terminals or on H-bridge supply rail to clamp inductive energy. Use Value: 40 A IFSM rating handles repeated motor startup surges; AEC-Q101 qualification ensures longevity in high-vibration environments. |
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 but VBR = 26.7–29.5 V; SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Less suitable for sustained high-temp environments due to lower TJ max = +150 °C and no AEC-Q101 qualification | Select when board space is constrained and automotive qualification is not required |
| TPSMF24A | Same VBR range and AEC-Q101 qualification, but SOD-123FL package; PPPM = 400 W, VC = 38.9 V @ 10.3 A | Higher VC increases protected circuit stress; smaller package reduces heat dissipation capability | Prefer for cost-sensitive consumer designs where MPG06's thermal robustness is unnecessary |
Compared with SMAJ24A and TPSMF24A, the TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B delivers superior thermal endurance (TJ max = +185 °C), proven automotive reliability via AEC-Q101, and optimized clamping (37.5 V) for 24 V systems - making it the preferred choice for mission-critical under-hood and industrial control applications.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B?
The TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B has a specified breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 25.7 V to 28.4 V at 1.0 mA test current, representing ±10% tolerance around the nominal 27 V rating. This tolerance is verified per the manufacturer's electrical characteristics table and ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots without requiring binning.
Is TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B is unidirectional only, as explicitly stated in the Vishay datasheet. It conducts in forward bias and clamps reverse transients - it does not protect against negative-going surges on AC or bipolar signal lines. For bidirectional protection, a dedicated bidirectional TVS such as SMBJ24CA must be selected instead of TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B.
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature for TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B?
The TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B supports solder dip at 275 °C maximum for 10 seconds per JESD 22-B106, and is compatible with standard reflow profiles per J-STD-020. Its matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 for solderability, ensuring reliable joint formation without delamination or voiding during automated assembly of TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B.
Does TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B have a defined junction capacitance value?
No specific junction capacitance (CJ) is published for TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B in the official Vishay datasheet (Document Number: 88404). While Fig. 4 shows typical CJ vs. VBR curves for the TMPG06 family, no discrete value is assigned to the TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B variant. For high-frequency signal line protection where capacitance matters, consult Vishay's SMB or SMC package TVS diodes with published CJ specs instead of TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B.
How does the AEC-Q101 qualification of TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B impact its use in non-automotive applications?
The AEC-Q101 qualification of TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B validates its robustness under accelerated stress tests (e.g., temperature cycling, HTRB, UHAST), making it highly suitable for industrial, telecom, and medical applications demanding long-term reliability. Even outside automotive, TMPG06-27AHE3_A/B offers extended lifetime and reduced field failure risk compared to non-qualified TVS diodes - especially in thermally demanding or vibration-prone deployments.
