Product details
Overview
TMPG06-36HE3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode designed for clamping inductive switching transients and lightning-induced surges on power and signal lines. It delivers 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 μs), has a standoff voltage of 29.1 V, clamps at ≤52.0 V under 7.7 A peak pulse current, and operates up to +185 °C junction temperature - deployed in automotive sensor protection and industrial power supply input stages.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-36HE3/54 datasheet, TMPG06-36HE3/54 pinout, TMPG06-36HE3/54 application, or TMPG06-36HE3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, 0.099 %/°C VBR temperature coefficient, 1.0 W steady-state power dissipation, and MPG06 package compatibility with high-reliability board-level surge protection layouts.
Technical Context
This TVS diode operates exclusively in unidirectional mode, leveraging an avalanche breakdown mechanism to clamp transient overvoltages above its 32.4–39.6 V breakdown range. Its low incremental resistance and fast response time ensure minimal overshoot during 10/1000 μs surges.
Designed for high-temperature stability, it maintains specified clamping performance across −65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature, with derating applied above 25 °C ambient per Figure 2. The device meets JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance and UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary overvoltage clamp on bulk input stage, coordinated with MOVs and fuses for staged protection architecture. Use Value: Provides fast-response, low-leakage (<1 μA at 29.1 V) clamping that avoids false triggering during normal 24–48 V operation. |
| Telecom Line Interface | Consumer Power Adapter Output |
Use Scenario: Shielding Ethernet PHYs and RS-485 transceivers from ESD and cable discharge events in outdoor network equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-level TVS on isolated data/power lines, placed after common-mode chokes and before signal conditioning circuitry.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Final-stage protector on regulated output rail, shunting overvoltage before reaching connected devices. Use Value: Ensures compliance with IEC 62368-1 Annex D by limiting output overvoltage to <52.0 V under 7.7 A surge conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ36A-E3/5AT | Same VWM (29.1 V), but lower PPPM (400 W same), higher VC (58.1 V), SMA package (larger footprint, lower thermal mass) | Less suitable for high-temperature or space-constrained automotive PCBs due to larger SMA package and higher clamping voltage | Select TMPG06-36HE3/54 when board area, thermal performance, or clamping tightness below 52.0 V is critical |
| 1.5SMC36A | Higher PPPM (1500 W), same VWM, but larger SMC package, non-AEC-Q101, higher VC (58.1 V) | Targeted at industrial mains-level protection, not automotive-grade or compact layout use cases | Choose TMPG06-36HE3/54 for AEC-Q101 compliance, DO-219AB footprint, and tighter clamping in space-limited designs |
Compared with SMAJ36A-E3/5AT and 1.5SMC36A, TMPG06-36HE3/54 offers superior thermal robustness in the MPG06 package, AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive deployment, and the lowest clamping voltage (≤52.0 V) among these three - making it optimal for protecting sensitive 3.3 V/5 V logic rails downstream of 24 V systems.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage range of the TMPG06-36HE3/54?
The TMPG06-36HE3/54 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 32.4 V to 39.6 V at 1 mA test current, per the Vishay datasheet revision 22-Jul-16. This range defines the minimum and maximum voltage at which the device enters avalanche conduction, ensuring predictable clamping onset across production lots and temperature extremes. The TMPG06-36HE3/54 uses this specification to deliver consistent overvoltage protection in 24 V system applications.
Is the TMPG06-36HE3/54 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the TMPG06-36HE3/54 is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified, as confirmed in the Vishay datasheet Document Number 88404. This qualification covers stress tests including high-temperature reverse bias, temperature cycling, and ESD, validating its reliability for automotive powertrain, chassis, and body electronics. The TMPG06-36HE3/54 meets these requirements in its standard HE3 suffix configuration.
What does the "HE3/54" suffix indicate in TMPG06-36HE3/54?
The "HE3" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant, matte tin-plated leads meeting JESD201 Class 2 whisker resistance, while "/54" specifies packaging in 13-inch paper tape and reel with a base quantity of 5500 units. This format aligns with Vishay's ordering nomenclature for the MPG06 package. The TMPG06-36HE3/54 uses this standardized delivery mode to support automated SMT assembly in high-volume manufacturing.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of the TMPG06-36HE3/54 under surge conditions?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of the TMPG06-36HE3/54 is 52.0 V at 7.7 A peak pulse current (IPPM) with a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 3 in the Vishay datasheet and represents the upper limit of voltage seen by downstream circuitry during worst-case transient events. Designers use this parameter to verify safe operating margins for components protected by the TMPG06-36HE3/54.
Can the TMPG06-36HE3/54 be used in bidirectional configurations?
No, the TMPG06-36HE3/54 is specified for unidirectional polarity only, as stated in the Vishay datasheet features section. It contains a single PN junction optimized for reverse-bias clamping and lacks symmetrical breakdown characteristics required for bidirectional operation. For bidirectional protection, designers must select a dedicated bidirectional TVS such as the SMBJ36CA - the TMPG06-36HE3/54 is not suitable for AC-line or differential-signal applications requiring dual-quadrant clamping.
