Product details
Overview
TMPG06-33HE3/54 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 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), 45.7 V clamping voltage at 8.8 A peak pulse current, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-33HE3/54 datasheet, TMPG06-33HE3/54 pinout, TMPG06-33HE3/54 application, or TMPG06-33HE3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance under 10/1000 μs transients, unidirectional polarity compatibility with DC-biased lines, high-temperature operation up to +185 °C junction, and RoHS-compliant, whisker-tested matte tin terminations.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates as a shunt-clamping device that remains non-conductive below VWM = 28.2 V and rapidly avalanches above VBR (min 31.4 V) to limit transient voltages. Its low incremental resistance and sub-nanosecond response time ensure effective suppression of ESD, load dump, and inductive switching spikes.
The device is rated for 40 A non-repetitive forward surge current (8.3 ms half-sine), dissipates 1.0 W continuously on an infinite heatsink, and maintains stable clamping up to +150 °C ambient due to its +0.098 %/°C VBR temperature coefficient and 185 °C max junction temperature rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 31.4 V / 34.7 V - Ensures reliable turn-on above normal operating voltage while avoiding false triggering |
| VWM | 28.2 V - Maximum continuous reverse working voltage before leakage exceeds 1 μA |
| VC @ IPPM | 45.7 V at 8.8 A - Clamped voltage during 10/1000 μs transient; defines worst-case stress on protected IC |
| PPPM | 400 W - Peak pulse power handling capability per standard 10/1000 μs waveform |
| IFSM | 40 A - Withstands 8.3 ms single half-sine surge without degradation |
| TJ max | +185 °C - Enables use in under-hood automotive environments and high-power industrial enclosures |
| Polarity | Unidirectional - Suitable only for DC-biased circuits where reverse conduction must be blocked |
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.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry point during clamping | Connected to lower-potential side (e.g., ground or return path) in unidirectional configuration |
| Cathode | Reverse-biased terminal; marked by color band | Connected to protected line (e.g., 24 V rail or sensor output); avalanche occurs when cathode-to-anode voltage exceeds VBR |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control, body electronics, and ADAS power domains |
| HE3 suffix | Meets JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance - critical for long-term solder joint integrity in thermal cycling environments |
| Low clamping ratio (VC/VBR ≈ 1.42) | Minimizes voltage overshoot during transients, reducing risk of downstream IC latch-up or damage |
| High-temperature stability | Specified performance maintained from –65 °C to +185 °C junction; VBR drift ≤ ±10 % across full range |
| Solderability | Matte tin leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102; withstands 275 °C solder dip for 10 s |
Applications
| Automotive Power Rail Protection | Industrial Sensor Interface Protection |
|---|---|

Use Value: Withstands 40 A surge (8.3 ms) and operates reliably at +125 °C ambient inside sealed motor housings. |
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 | Lower PPPM (400 W same), but higher VC = 53.3 V at 7.5 A; SMA package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Limited to lower-energy transients; less suitable for sustained load dump events requiring high IPPM margin | Select when board space is constrained and peak clamping voltage tolerance allows ≥53 V |
| SMCJ33A | Same VBR/VWM, but higher PPPM = 1500 W and VC = 53.3 V at 28.3 A; larger SMC package | Better for high-energy threats (e.g., ISO 16750-2 jump start), but requires more PCB area and thermal relief | Choose when system-level testing demands >400 W surge immunity and layout permits SMC footprint |
Compared with SMAJ33A and SMCJ33A, the TMPG06-33HE3/54 delivers optimal balance of AEC-Q101 compliance, MPG06 mechanical robustness, and precise 45.7 V clamping-making it preferred for automotive and industrial designs where qualification, lead strength, and predictable voltage limiting are prioritized over raw power rating or miniaturization.

FAQ
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the TMPG06-33HE3/54 under standard test conditions?
The TMPG06-33HE3/54 has a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 45.7 V when subjected to its rated peak pulse current of 8.8 A using the 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per JEDEC standards and represents the upper bound of voltage seen by downstream circuitry during a defined transient event. The TMPG06-33HE3/54 achieves this clamping performance while maintaining low incremental resistance and stable behavior across temperature.
Is the TMPG06-33HE3/54 suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the TMPG06-33HE3/54 is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly rated for automotive use, including engine control units, body electronics, and ADAS subsystems. Its operating junction temperature range of –65 °C to +185 °C, HE3 whisker-resistant terminations, and compliance with load dump and EFT immunity requirements make it appropriate for under-hood and chassis-mounted deployments. The TMPG06-33HE3/54 meets these requirements without derating in typical automotive thermal profiles.
What does the "HE3" suffix indicate in TMPG06-33HE3/54?
"HE3" denotes Vishay's standardized packaging and qualification level: RoHS-compliant construction, AEC-Q101 qualification, and JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance for matte tin leads. This ensures long-term solder joint reliability under thermal cycling and vibration-critical for automotive and industrial applications. The TMPG06-33HE3/54 carries this suffix to confirm conformance to all three requirements, not just RoHS or qualification alone.
Can the TMPG06-33HE3/54 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, the TMPG06-33HE3/54 is unidirectional only, as confirmed in its official datasheet. It conducts in reverse avalanche mode above VBR but blocks forward current beyond its 3.5 V forward voltage at 25 A. For bidirectional protection (e.g., AC lines or differential signals), a separate symmetric TVS pair or a dedicated bidirectional part such as SMBJ33CA must be used. The TMPG06-33HE3/54 must be oriented with its cathode band toward the protected line.
What is the thermal derating behavior of the TMPG06-33HE3/54 above 25 °C ambient?
The TMPG06-33HE3/54 follows a linear power derating curve starting at 25 °C: its 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation decreases by approximately 0.75% per °C rise in lead temperature (TL), reaching zero at TL = 175 °C. Derating is based on thermal resistance from junction to lead (RθJL) and applies to continuous DC or low-duty-cycle operation-not transient clamping. The TMPG06-33HE3/54 retains full 400 W pulse capability regardless of ambient, as pulse energy is too brief for significant thermal accumulation.
