Product details
Overview
TMPG06-30AHE3/53 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for robust overvoltage protection in automotive and industrial power rails. It features a 28.5 V to 31.5 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 25.6 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 9.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and clamps to ≤41.4 V at rated current - deployed to safeguard MOSFETs and sensor signal lines against inductive switching transients.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 datasheet, TMPG06-30AHE3/53 pinout, TMPG06-30AHE3/53 application, or TMPG06-30AHE3/53 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 185 °C maximum junction temperature, low incremental resistance, fast response time, and MPG06 package compatibility with high-reliability automotive PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a clamping device in parallel with sensitive circuit nodes, conducting only when reverse voltage exceeds VBR. Its unidirectional polarity enables protection of DC-biased lines without forward conduction during normal operation.
It delivers 400 W peak pulse power under standardized 10/1000 µs waveform conditions with 0.01 % duty cycle, and maintains stable clamping performance across -65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range - validated per AEC-Q101 stress tests including high-temperature operating life and temperature cycling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 28.5 V / 31.5 V - defines reliable turn-on threshold for transient suppression without false triggering at nominal rail voltage |
| VWM | 25.6 V - maximum continuous reverse working voltage before leakage rises above 1 µA, ensuring no interference during normal operation |
| IPPM | 9.7 A - peak surge current it safely shunts during 10/1000 µs transient, directly determining protected circuit's survivability margin |
| VC (max) | 41.4 V - clamped voltage at IPPM, limiting stress on downstream ICs or MOSFETs during worst-case surge events |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling capability, enabling protection against high-energy inductive kickback in automotive solenoid drivers |
| TJ (max) | +185 °C - extended junction temperature rating supports under-hood automotive placement and high-ambient industrial environments |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - certified for automotive-grade reliability including HTOL, TC, and HAST, meeting stringent automotive electronics requirements |
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, RoHS-compliant and whisker-tested per JESD 201 Class 2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point during clamping | Connected to ground or low-side reference; forms cathode-to-rail configuration for unidirectional protection |
| Cathode | Protected line connection point | Connected to the node requiring protection (e.g., 24 V supply rail or sensor output); color band identifies this terminal |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs) | Enables robust suppression of high-energy transients from relay coils, motors, and solenoids in 24 V automotive systems |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validates long-term reliability under automotive thermal, mechanical, and humidity stresses - required for engine control, body electronics, and ADAS modules |
| 185 °C maximum junction temperature | Supports direct mounting near heat sources (e.g., power converters, motor drivers) without derating penalties in industrial controls |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.31) | Minimizes overvoltage overshoot during clamping, reducing risk of damage to 30 V-rated MOSFETs and interface ICs |
| Matte tin plating, J-STD-002 compliant | Ensures consistent solder wetting and joint integrity in automated reflow and wave soldering processes for high-yield manufacturing |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ30A | Same VWM (25.6 V) and VC (48.4 V), but lower PPPM (400 W same), smaller SMA package (vs. MPG06), higher VC by 7 V | Limited to lower-energy transients due to reduced thermal mass; not AEC-Q101 qualified | Select when board space is constrained and automotive qualification is not required |
| TPSMF30A | Identical VWM (25.6 V) and VC (41.4 V), same AEC-Q101 rating, but SOD-123FL package with lower IFSM (30 A vs. 40 A) | Lower surge current handling limits use in high-inductance motor drive circuits | Prefer for compact consumer designs where 40 A surge margin is unnecessary |
Compared with SMAJ30A and TPSMF30A, the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 provides superior thermal robustness (1.0 W steady-state dissipation), higher IFSM (40 A), and proven reliability in under-hood automotive environments - making it the preferred choice where sustained surge resilience and qualification compliance are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 at its rated peak pulse current?
The TMPG06-30AHE3/53 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 41.4 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current (IPPM) of 9.7 A under the standard 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per JEDEC test conditions and ensures downstream components remain within safe operating limits during surge events. The TMPG06-30AHE3/53 achieves this clamping performance while maintaining low incremental resistance and fast response time.
Is the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 is AEC-Q101 qualified, having passed stress tests including high-temperature operating life, temperature cycling, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing. This qualification confirms its suitability for automotive powertrain, chassis, and body electronics where reliability under thermal and mechanical stress is mandatory. The TMPG06-30AHE3/53 meets these requirements as part of Vishay's PAR® TVS family.
What does the "HE3/53" suffix indicate in TMPG06-30AHE3/53?
The "HE3" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant construction with matte tin-plated leads that satisfy J-STD-002 solderability and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements. The "/53" indicates tape-and-reel packaging in 13-inch diameter reels with 5500 units per reel - a standard delivery format for automated SMT assembly. The TMPG06-30AHE3/53 uses this configuration to ensure manufacturability and compliance in high-volume production.
How does the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 compare to bidirectional TVS diodes in circuit design?
The TMPG06-30AHE3/53 is unidirectional and intended for DC-biased lines where reverse conduction must be avoided - such as 24 V power rails or sensor outputs referenced to ground. Unlike bidirectional variants, it blocks forward current up to 25.6 V and conducts only during negative transients. This makes the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 ideal for asymmetric voltage environments where forward leakage or unintended conduction could disrupt system operation.
What is the thermal derating behavior of the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 above 25 °C ambient?
The TMPG06-30AHE3/53 follows a linear derating curve for peak pulse power above 25 °C ambient, with full 400 W capability only at TA ≤ 25 °C. Derating begins immediately per Figure 2 in the datasheet, reaching ~50 % of rated power at 125 °C ambient. Its 185 °C maximum junction temperature allows operation in high-heat zones when mounted with adequate copper area, and the TMPG06-30AHE3/53 maintains specified clamping performance across this full range.
