Product details
Overview
TMPG06-27HE3/100 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), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 10.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and clamps to ≤37.5 V at rated surge, with AEC-Q101 qualification and 185 °C max junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-27HE3/100 datasheet, TMPG06-27HE3/100 pinout, TMPG06-27HE3/100 application, or TMPG06-27HE3/100 equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional clamping performance under 10/1000 µs transients, high-temperature reliability up to 150 °C, low incremental resistance, and RoHS-compliant, whisker-tested matte tin terminations in the MPG06 package.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamping protection device, triggered when reverse voltage exceeds its specified breakdown range (25.7–28.4 V at 1 mA). Its low clamping voltage (≤37.5 V at 10.7 A) limits energy delivered to downstream ICs during ESD or inductive switching events.
Designed for high-reliability environments, it supports repetitive surge duty cycles up to 0.01 %, withstands solder dip at 275 °C for 10 s, and maintains stable performance across –65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range. The MPG06 package enables surface-mount integration with standardized lead spacing and UL 94 V-0 compliant epoxy molding.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 25.7 V / 28.4 V at 1 mA - defines precise conduction onset for predictable clamping threshold |
| VWM | 23.1 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage rises significantly |
| IPPM | 10.7 A (10/1000 µs) - peak surge current it safely shunts without failure |
| VC | ≤37.5 V at IPPM - clamped voltage seen by protected circuit during worst-case transient |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling capability under standard lightning/surge waveform |
| TJ max | +185 °C - enables operation in under-hood automotive or high-ambient industrial environments |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry / low-side reference | Connected to ground or lower-potential rail in unidirectional clamp configuration |
| Cathode | Reverse-biased clamping node | Connected to protected line; conducts when transient exceeds VBR, diverting surge to ground |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables protection against ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/5a and IEC 61000-4-5 Level 3 surges |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates suitability for automotive powertrain, body control, and ADAS modules requiring long-term field reliability |
| 185 °C max junction temperature | Supports placement near heat-generating components (e.g., motor drivers, DC/DC converters) without derating |
| HE3 suffix | Meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance - critical for high-vibration automotive and industrial assemblies |
| Low incremental resistance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast transients, improving protection margin for 3.3 V/5 V logic interfaces |
Applications
| Automotive Power Line Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting 12 V battery-fed ECUs from load dump and alternator ripple transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional voltage clamp placed between power rail and ground, activated within <1 ns of overvoltage event.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ28A | Lower PPPM (400 W same), but higher VC (45.4 V at 8.8 A); SMA package, lower IPPM (8.8 A) | Less effective clamping margin for 24 V systems near upper rail limit | Prefer TMPG06-27HE3/100 where tighter clamping (<37.5 V) and AEC-Q101 are required |
| 1.5SMC27A | Same VBR range, but larger SMC package (higher thermal mass); PPPM = 1500 W, VC = 43.0 V at 35 A | Better for high-energy surges but overdesigned for space-constrained PCBs | Choose TMPG06-27HE3/100 for compact MPG06 footprint and automotive-qualified reliability |
Compared with SMAJ28A and 1.5SMC27A, TMPG06-27HE3/100 delivers superior clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.33), AEC-Q101 validation, and optimized thermal performance in the smaller MPG06 outline-making it ideal for automotive and dense industrial layouts where both precision clamping and qualification matter.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for TMPG06-27HE3/100?
The TMPG06-27HE3/100 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage range of 25.7 V to 28.4 V at 1 mA test current, per the Vishay datasheet revision 17-Sep-2021. This ±5 % tolerance ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports reliable design margining for 24 V nominal systems.
Is TMPG06-27HE3/100 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, TMPG06-27HE3/100 is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly rated for automotive use. Its 185 °C maximum junction temperature, HE3 whisker-resistant terminations, and validation across temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD tests make it appropriate for engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS power domains.
What is the clamping voltage of TMPG06-27HE3/100 at its rated peak pulse current?
The TMPG06-27HE3/100 clamps to a maximum of 37.5 V when subjected to its rated 10.7 A peak pulse current (10/1000 µs waveform). This value is measured under standardized conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during surge events.
Does TMPG06-27HE3/100 have bidirectional polarity?
No, TMPG06-27HE3/100 is unidirectional only, as confirmed in the Vishay datasheet. It protects against positive transients on the cathode side relative to anode (ground), and must be oriented with the color band toward the protected line. Bidirectional variants are not offered in the TMPG06-27x series.
What package type does TMPG06-27HE3/100 use, and what are its key mechanical attributes?
TMPG06-27HE3/100 uses the MPG06 package: axial-leaded, molded epoxy case with 0.100" (2.54 mm) lead spacing, UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002. The cathode is marked by a color band, and the package supports solder dip at 275 °C for 10 s.
