Product details
Overview
TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 from Vishay General Semiconductor is an automotive-grade unidirectional transient voltage suppressor diode in MPG06 package, featuring 8.2 V nominal breakdown voltage (VBR = 7.79–8.61 V), 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 24.8 V clamping voltage at 200 A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics protection.
For engineers reviewing the TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 datasheet, TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 pinout, TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 application, or TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping performance at 200 A, low leakage (<50 µA at 6.63 V), high junction temperature rating (TJ = –65 to +185 °C), and RoHS-compliant matte tin-plated leads meeting JESD22-B102 solderability.
Technical Context
This unidirectional TVS diode uses Vishay's patented PAR® construction for stable clamping under repetitive surge conditions. Its 10/1000 µs waveform response delivers 400 W peak pulse power with 0.01 % duty cycle, and low incremental surge resistance ensures minimal voltage overshoot during fast transients.
The device operates across –65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range and maintains specified VBR stability up to 150 °C, with a temperature coefficient of +0.065 %/°C - critical for automotive engine control units and powertrain sensors exposed to thermal cycling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 7.79 V / 8.61 V at 10 mA - defines precise overvoltage triggering threshold for circuit protection |
| VWM | 6.63 V - maximum continuous reverse working voltage before leakage rises significantly |
| IPPM | 200 A at 10/1000 µs - peak surge current capability without failure under standard lightning surge test |
| VC | 24.8 V at IPPM - clamped voltage seen by protected IC/MOSFET during worst-case transient |
| PPPM | 400 W - energy-handling capacity for short-duration inductive switching spikes |
| TJ max. | +185 °C - enables placement near heat sources in automotive modules without derating loss |
| ID @ VWM | 50 µA - low leakage preserves signal integrity on high-impedance sensor lines |

Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial Motor Drive Interface |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Protection of 5 V sensor supply rail against load dump and alternator ripple transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional TVS clamp placed between VSUPPLY and GND, triggered within <1 ns upon overvoltage.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional protection network component (paired with complementary device), absorbing ±15 kV HBM ESD and 400 W surges. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity with <50 µA leakage at 6.63 V, avoiding false logic states on half-duplex bus lines. |
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Telecom Power Supply Input |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ8.0A | Lower PPPM (400 W same), but VBR min = 7.22 V, VC = 12.5 V @ 32.4 A - lower clamping but reduced surge margin | Rated for commercial temp only (–65 to +150 °C); not AEC-Q101 qualified | Acceptable for non-automotive industrial use where cost sensitivity outweighs automotive reliability requirements |
| SMCJ8.0A | Same VBR range (7.22–8.0 V), higher PPPM (1500 W), larger SMC package (7.11 × 6.22 mm vs. MPG06's 4.57 × 3.05 mm) | Higher surge handling but requires PCB area increase; no HE3 whisker testing or AEC-Q101 documentation | Preferred where system-level surge immunity exceeds ISO 7637-2 requirements and board space permits larger footprint |
Compared with SMAJ8.0A and SMCJ8.0A, TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 provides automotive-qualified reliability in a compact MPG06 package with tighter VBR tolerance (±5.3 %) and verified 185 °C operation - essential for space-constrained, thermally aggressive ECU designs.

FAQ
What is the exact breakdown voltage range for TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73?
The TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 has a guaranteed breakdown voltage range of 7.79 V to 8.61 V at 10 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35 standards. This tight ±5.3 % tolerance ensures predictable triggering behavior in precision protection circuits, and the value is confirmed in Vishay document 88404, Table on page 2.
Is TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No - TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 is unidirectional only, as explicitly stated in the "FEATURES" section of its datasheet. It protects against positive transients on the cathode side relative to anode (ground). For bidirectional protection, two devices must be used in series opposition or a dedicated bidirectional TVS like SMBJ8.0CA must be selected.
Does TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 meet automotive qualification standards?
Yes - TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 carries the HE3 suffix, indicating compliance with AEC-Q101 stress testing for discrete semiconductors, including temperature cycling, high-temperature operating life, and whisker resistance (JESD201 Class 2). This is documented in the "MECHANICAL DATA" section of Vishay document 88404.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 under surge conditions?
The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 is 24.8 V at 200 A peak pulse current with a 10/1000 µs waveform. This value is measured per Fig. 1 and Table on page 2 of Vishay document 88404 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during worst-case surge events.
Can TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 be hand-soldered using standard reflow profiles?
Yes - TMPG06-8.2AHE3/73 features matte tin-plated leads qualified per J-STD-002 and withstands solder dip at 260 °C for 40 seconds. Its MPG06 package is compatible with standard SnPb and lead-free reflow profiles, provided peak temperature does not exceed 260 °C and time above 217 °C remains within JEDEC J-STD-020 limits.
