Product details
Overview
TMPG06-30HE3/54 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 27.0–33.0 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 24.3 V maximum working voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), 9.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and clamps to 43.5 V at rated surge - deployed on 12 V battery-fed ECUs, sensor interfaces, and MOSFET gate drivers.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-30HE3/54 datasheet, TMPG06-30HE3/54 pinout, TMPG06-30HE3/54 application, or TMPG06-30HE3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, AEC-Q101 qualification, 185 °C max junction temperature, low incremental resistance, and compatibility with automated SMT placement using 13" paper tape and reel delivery (5500 pcs).
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a clamping device in parallel with protected circuitry, activating above its standoff voltage to divert transient energy away from sensitive components. Its silicon avalanche structure delivers sub-nanosecond response time and stable clamping under repetitive 10/1000 μs surges at ≤0.01% duty cycle.
Designed for high-reliability environments, it supports operation from –65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature, meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, and uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 solderability standards - critical for automotive under-hood and industrial control applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 27.0 V / 33.0 V - defines reliable avalanche initiation range under 1 mA test current |

|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protecting microcontroller GPIOs and CAN transceiver power rails from load dump and inductive switching spikes in vehicle door modules. IC Role / Device Role: Unidirectional TVS placed between 12 V supply and ground, clamping transients before they reach downstream regulators and logic ICs. Use Value: Prevents latch-up or permanent damage to 3.3 V/5 V logic circuits during 12 V system surges up to 40 V, leveraging 24.3 V VWM and 43.5 V VC. | Use Scenario: Safeguarding 24 V digital input channels against field-wiring induced surges in factory automation controllers. IC Role / Device Role: Standoff protection element across optocoupler input terminals and series current-limiting resistors. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity by limiting transient overvoltage to <44 V while sustaining <1 μA leakage at 24 V nominal - compatible with 24 V industrial logic thresholds. |
| Automotive Sensor Interface (e.g., ABS Wheel Speed) | Telecom Power Supply Front-End |
Use Scenario: Shielding Hall-effect sensor signal lines and bias supplies from ESD and alternator ripple in anti-lock braking systems. IC Role / Device Role: Low-capacitance unidirectional clamp on sensor VCC and output lines, referenced to chassis ground. Use Value: Enables reliable operation at 125 °C ambient via 185 °C TJ rating and maintains <1 μA leakage at elevated temperatures. | Use Scenario: Secondary-level surge suppression on 48 V telecom rectifier outputs feeding base station backplane regulators. IC Role / Device Role: Parallel-connected TVS absorbing residual transients after primary MOV/GDT stages. Use Value: Provides precise 43.5 V clamping to protect downstream DC/DC converters rated for 45 V max input, avoiding overvoltage shutdown. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMBJ28A | 28 V standoff (VWM = 28 V), 400 W, SMB package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Higher VWM reduces margin for 24 V systems; SMB limits power handling in sustained surge scenarios | Select when board space is constrained and peak surge duration is short (<100 ms) |
| 1.5KE33A | DO-201 package, 33 V VWM, 1500 W PPPM, higher IFSM (200 A) | Through-hole mounting; unsuitable for automated SMT; better for infrequent high-energy events | Choose for legacy through-hole designs or where higher single-pulse energy absorption is required |
Compared with SMBJ28A and 1.5KE33A, TMPG06-30HE3/54 offers optimal balance of AEC-Q101 qualification, SMT-compatible MPG06 packaging, 24.3 V VWM headroom for 12 V automotive systems, and validated thermal performance up to 185 °C - making it preferred for new automotive and high-temp industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range of the TMPG06-30HE3/54?
The TMPG06-30HE3/54 has a specified breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 27.0 V to 33.0 V at 1.0 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This ensures consistent avalanche triggering across production lots and temperature extremes, supporting reliable overvoltage protection in 12 V automotive systems where nominal rail can vary between 9 V and 16 V.
Is TMPG06-30HE3/54 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, TMPG06-30HE3/54 is AEC-Q101 qualified, meaning it has passed rigorous stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and ESD immunity. Its 185 °C maximum junction temperature and RoHS-compliant HE3 suffix (JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance) make TMPG06-30HE3/54 suitable for under-hood and transmission-control module deployments.
What does the "HE3/54" suffix mean in TMPG06-30HE3/54?
The "HE3" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant construction with matte tin-plated leads meeting JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance, while "/54" specifies the preferred package code for 13-inch diameter paper tape and reel delivery containing 5500 units - standard for SMT assembly lines. This configuration ensures TMPG06-30HE3/54 is ready for high-volume automated placement.
How does TMPG06-30HE3/54 compare to bidirectional TVS diodes?
TMPG06-30HE3/54 is unidirectional only, optimized for DC power rail protection where polarity is fixed - such as 12 V battery feeds or regulated 24 V supplies. Unlike bidirectional variants, it provides lower leakage (<1 μA at 24.3 V) and tighter clamping (43.5 V), but cannot protect AC or reversible signal lines. Use TMPG06-30HE3/54 where polarity is known and low standby current is critical.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TMPG06-30HE3/54 at rated surge current?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of TMPG06-30HE3/54 is 43.5 V when subjected to its rated 9.2 A peak pulse current (IPPM) under the standard 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is guaranteed across temperature and lifetime, ensuring protected circuits experience no more than 43.5 V during worst-case transients - well below typical 45 V input ratings of downstream DC/DC converters.
