Product details
Overview
TMPG06-27HE3/54 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 25.7 V to 28.4 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 23.1 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 37.5 V clamping voltage at 10.7 A peak pulse current, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-27HE3/54 datasheet, TMPG06-27HE3/54 pinout, TMPG06-27HE3/54 application, or TMPG06-27HE3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 µs transients, junction temperature derating above 25 °C, unidirectional polarity alignment with DC-biased circuits, and compatibility with JESD22-B106 soldering profiles up to 275 °C for 10 s.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a voltage-clamped shunt protector: when reverse voltage exceeds VBR, it avalanches to divert surge current away from downstream components. Its low incremental resistance ensures stable clamping during high-current transients such as load dump or inductive switching spikes.
The device is rated for 40 A non-repetitive forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine), supports continuous power dissipation of 1.0 W on an infinite heatsink at TL = 75 °C, and maintains operation across -65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range - critical for under-hood automotive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 25.7 V / 28.4 V - defines minimum and maximum voltage at which avalanche conduction begins at 1 mA test current; sets precise clamping threshold window |
| VWM | 23.1 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage exceeds 1 µA; must exceed system nominal rail voltage |
| VC @ IPPM | 37.5 V at 10.7 A - clamping voltage during 10/1000 µs surge; determines maximum stress imposed on protected IC or MOSFET |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling capability per 10/1000 µs waveform; validates suitability for ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2/5a compliance testing |
| TJ max. | +185 °C - maximum junction temperature rating; enables placement near high-power components without thermal shutdown risk |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Yes - certified for automotive electronic systems per stress test requirements including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling |
| Package | MPG06 - surface-mount DO-216AB molded epoxy package with matte tin-plated leads, UL 94 V-0 rated |
Pinout & Package
MPG06 is a 2-terminal surface-mount package with cathode indicated by a color band. Terminals are matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability standards; HE3 suffix confirms JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Low-side reference terminal | Connected to ground or lowest potential node; establishes reference for unidirectional clamping action |
| Cathode | Protected line input terminal | Connected to the line being protected (e.g., 24 V supply rail); avalanche conduction occurs between cathode and anode during overvoltage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables reliable suppression of ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load-dump transients in 24 V automotive systems |
| Clamping voltage ≤ 37.5 V at 10.7 A | Keeps protected 3.3 V/5 V/12 V logic or gate drivers within safe operating area during surge events |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates long-term reliability under automotive thermal, mechanical, and humidity stress conditions |
| 185 °C max. junction temperature | Supports mounting in high-temperature zones (e.g., engine control units, battery management modules) |
| Low incremental resistance | Minimizes voltage overshoot during fast-rising transients (< 1 ns response time) |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Signal Line Protection |

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 VBR = 26.7–29.5 V; SMA package (larger footprint, lower thermal mass) | Less suitable for high-temperature automotive under-hood use due to lower TJ max. (150 °C vs. 185 °C) | Prefer TMPG06-27HE3/54 where space-constrained PCB layout and extended temperature operation are required. |
| SMCJ24A | Higher PPPM (1500 W), VBR = 26.7–29.5 V; SMC package (larger, higher IPPM capability) | Better for high-energy surges but over-specified for typical 24 V automotive transients; increases BOM cost and board area | Choose TMPG06-27HE3/54 when optimizing for cost, size, and AEC-Q101 compliance without needing >400 W rating. |
Compared with SMAJ24A and SMCJ24A, TMPG06-27HE3/54 delivers identical clamping performance in a smaller MPG06 footprint, extends operational life at elevated temperatures via +185 °C TJ rating, and provides verified AEC-Q101 qualification - making it the optimal choice for space- and reliability-critical 24 V automotive electronics.

FAQ
What is the exact breakdown voltage range for TMPG06-27HE3/54?
The TMPG06-27HE3/54 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 25.7 V to 28.4 V at 1.0 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This range ensures predictable clamping onset across production lots and temperature extremes, and is validated per AEC-Q101 test conditions for automotive use.
Is TMPG06-27HE3/54 suitable for 24 V automotive systems?
Yes, TMPG06-27HE3/54 is explicitly designed for 24 V automotive applications: its 23.1 V stand-off voltage (VWM) exceeds nominal 24 V rail tolerances, its 37.5 V clamping voltage protects downstream 40 V-rated components, and its AEC-Q101 qualification covers thermal cycling, humidity, and high-temperature bias stress relevant to under-hood deployment.
Does TMPG06-27HE3/54 have bidirectional polarity?
No, TMPG06-27HE3/54 is unidirectional only, with cathode marked by a color band. It conducts only during reverse overvoltage events and blocks forward current like a standard diode. Bidirectional variants are not offered in the TMPG06 family; use separate devices or dedicated bidirectional TVS if AC-coupled or dual-polarity protection is needed.
What is the maximum allowable soldering temperature for TMPG06-27HE3/54?
TMPG06-27HE3/54 supports solder dip at 275 °C maximum for 10 seconds per JESD22-B106, and reflow profiles compliant with J-STD-020. The matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 and JESD22-B102 solderability requirements, and the HE3 suffix confirms JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance for long-term reliability.
How does TMPG06-27HE3/54 compare to standard SMAJ24A in thermal performance?
TMPG06-27HE3/54 supports a maximum junction temperature of +185 °C, whereas SMAJ24A is rated to +150 °C. This 35 °C margin allows TMPG06-27HE3/54 to operate reliably in higher ambient environments (e.g., near power converters or in sealed enclosures), extending lifetime and reducing thermal derating constraints in automotive and industrial designs.
