Product details
Overview
TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C 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 31.4 V to 34.7 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 28.2 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 8.8 A peak pulse current (IPPM), and clamps to 45.7 V at rated surge, operating reliably up to +185 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C datasheet, TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C pinout, TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C application, or TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, low incremental resistance, fast response time, unidirectional polarity, and suitability for protecting MOSFETs, sensor interfaces, and 24 V/36 V automotive subsystems against load dump and inductive switching transients.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a clamping device in parallel with sensitive circuitry, activating when reverse voltage exceeds VWM (28.2 V) and entering avalanche breakdown above VBR (min 31.4 V). Its low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.45) and 0.098 %/°C VBR temperature coefficient ensure predictable protection margins across temperature.
Rated for 40 A non-repetitive forward surge (8.3 ms half-sine), it withstands repetitive 10/1000 µs pulses at 0.01 % duty cycle and supports soldering per JESD 22-B106 (275 °C, 10 s). The MPG06 package enables high thermal reliability with UL 94 V-0 epoxy and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 31.4 V / 34.7 V - defines precise avalanche turn-on threshold for repeatable clamping onset |
| VWM | 28.2 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before leakage rises; sets safe operating margin below VBR |
| IPPM (10/1000 µs) | 8.8 A - peak surge current it safely shunts without failure under standardized transient waveform |
| VC @ IPPM | 45.7 V - clamped voltage during rated surge; determines maximum stress on downstream components |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak transient energy absorption capacity, enabling protection against ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2a/5a events |
| TJ max. | +185 °C - extended junction temperature rating supports under-hood automotive placement and high-ambient industrial use |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ33A-E3/5A (Vishay) | Same VWM (28.2 V) and VC (53.3 V), but lower PPPM (400 W same), SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Less suitable for high-temperature ambient (>125 °C) due to lower TJ max. (150 °C) and reduced power derating | Select when board space is constrained and ambient temperature remains <105 °C; verify thermal design for repeated surges |
| 1.5KE33A (ON Semiconductor) | Higher VC (53.3 V), same VWM, larger DO-201 package, PPPM = 1500 W but higher capacitance and slower response | Better for high-energy, low-frequency surges (e.g., AC mains coupling); less optimal for fast automotive transients | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial AC/DC front-ends where clamping speed is secondary to energy handling |
Compared with SMAJ33A-E3/5A and 1.5KE33A, the TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C delivers superior high-temperature stability (185 °C vs. 150 °C/175 °C), tighter VBR tolerance (±5 % vs. ±5 %/±10 %), and AEC-Q101 validation-making it the preferred choice for automotive-critical 24 V rail protection where thermal margin and qualification rigor are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range for TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C?
The TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 31.4 V to 34.7 V at 1.0 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This tight ±5 % tolerance ensures consistent clamping behavior across production lots and supports precise protection margin design in 24 V systems where overvoltage thresholds must remain within defined safety bands.
Is TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly designed for automotive use. It meets stress tests including high-temperature operating life (HTOL), temperature cycling, and highly accelerated stress testing (HAST), supporting deployment in engine control modules, body control units, and ADAS sensor interfaces where reliability under thermal and electrical stress is critical.
What does the "HE3_A/C" suffix indicate in TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C?
The "HE3" suffix denotes Vishay's RoHS-compliant, matte tin-plated leads meeting JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance requirements; "A/C" indicates the revision code and packaging format-specifically, 13-inch paper tape and reel with 5500 units per reel, using the C-coded carrier tape per ordering specification.
How does TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C compare to bidirectional TVS diodes?
TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C is unidirectional only, optimized for DC rail protection where polarity is fixed (e.g., 24 V supply to ground). Unlike bidirectional variants, it offers lower leakage (<1 µA at VWM) and sharper knee characteristics in the reverse direction, making it more efficient for asymmetric voltage threats without sacrificing forward conduction capability.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C during a surge event?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of TMPG06-33AHE3_A/C is 45.7 V at its rated peak pulse current of 8.8 A (10/1000 µs waveform). This value is measured under standardized test conditions and represents the highest voltage seen across the device during surge conduction-directly determining the peak stress imposed on protected downstream components.
