Product details

Overview

TPSMP24AHM3/85A from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-220AA (SMP) package, designed for high-reliability automotive and industrial overvoltage protection. It features a 22.8 V to 25.2 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 33.2 V clamping voltage (VC) at 12.0 A peak pulse current, 400 W peak pulse power rating, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics.

For engineers reviewing the TPSMP24AHM3/85A datasheet, TPSMP24AHM3/85A pinout, TPSMP24AHM3/85A application, or TPSMP24AHM3/85A equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 1.0 mm profile suitability for space-constrained PCBs, TJ = 185 °C operation, MSL Level 1 compliance, and 300 μs/10/1000 μs surge waveform capability.

Technical Context

This TVS diode uses passivated anisotropic rectifier technology optimized for low incremental surge resistance and fast response time (<1 ns). Its junction design enables stable clamping performance across -65 °C to +185 °C, with <1.0 μA reverse leakage at 20.5 V stand-off voltage and 2.5 V forward voltage at 25 A.

The device operates as a shunt-type protector: during transients exceeding VWM = 20.5 V, it avalanches to clamp voltage at ≤33.2 V, diverting up to 12.0 A (10/1000 μs) while maintaining low thermal impedance via its SMP package copper pad layout.

Key Specifications

ParameterValue and Actual Design Meaning
VBR (min/max)22.8 V / 25.2 V - defines reliable avalanche initiation threshold under 1 mA test current
VC @ IPPM33.2 V @ 12.0 A - maximum clamped voltage during 10/1000 μs surge, limiting downstream IC stress
PPPM400 W - peak pulse power handling capacity for transient suppression per JEDEC standard
VWM20.5 V - maximum continuous reverse operating voltage before leakage exceeds 1.0 μA
TJ max+185 °C - enables placement near heat sources in automotive engine control units
PackageDO-220AA (SMP) - 1.0 mm height, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, MSL Level 1
AEC-Q101Qualified - validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling and HTRB

Pinout & Package

TPSMP24AHM3/85A is a two-terminal unidirectional TVS diode in DO-220AA (SMP) surface-mount package. The cathode is marked by a color band on the body; polarity must be observed during PCB layout to ensure proper clamping direction.

Pin/TerminalCircuit RoleDesign Meaning
AnodeLow-side reference terminalConnected to ground or lower-potential rail; completes clamping path during overvoltage events
CathodeHigh-side transient input terminalConnected to protected line (e.g., 24 V supply rail); avalanche conduction initiates here when VIN > VBR

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
SMAJ24A-E3/5TDO-214AC (SMA) package; 24.0 V nominal VBR; 38.9 V VC @ 10.3 A; 400 W PPPM1.8 mm height limits use in ultra-thin modules; higher VC increases stress on protected ICsSelect when legacy SMA footprint compatibility is required and board height ≥1.8 mm is acceptable
TPSMA6.8A-QAutomotive-grade SMA package; 6.8 V VBR; not suitable for 24 V systemsLower voltage rating restricts use to 5 V/12 V rails only; incompatible with 24 V load dumpChoose only for sub-15 V applications where TPSMP24AHM3/85A's 22.8–25.2 V range is excessive

Compared with SMAJ24A-E3/5T and TPSMA6.8A-Q, TPSMP24AHM3/85A delivers superior height efficiency (1.0 mm vs. 2.3 mm), tighter VBR tolerance (±5 %), and lower clamping voltage (33.2 V vs. 38.9 V), making it optimal for next-generation compact automotive electronics requiring AEC-Q101 compliance.

The TPSMP24AHM3/85A has a guaranteed breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 22.8 V to 25.2 V at 1.0 mA test current, measured per ANSI/IEEE C62.35. This ±5 % tolerance ensures predictable avalanche onset in 24 V automotive and industrial systems, and is confirmed in the Vishay datasheet Document Number 88471, page 2.

Is TPSMP24AHM3/85A suitable for load dump protection per ISO 7637-2?

Yes, TPSMP24AHM3/85A is qualified for load dump protection: its 400 W peak pulse power rating, 33.2 V clamping voltage at 12.0 A, and 185 °C junction rating meet the energy absorption and thermal stability requirements of ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a. It is explicitly cited in Vishay's application guidance for engine control unit power rail protection.

Does TPSMP24AHM3/85A have AEC-Q101 qualification?

Yes, TPSMP24AHM3/85A carries full AEC-Q101 qualification, as stated in the Vishay datasheet revision 22-Jul-16 (Document Number 88471, page 1). This includes stress testing for temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and unbiased highly accelerated stress testing-validating its suitability for automotive under-hood applications.

What is the maximum clamping voltage of TPSMP24AHM3/85A under surge conditions?

The maximum clamping voltage (VC) of TPSMP24AHM3/85A is 33.2 V at 12.0 A peak pulse current with a 10/1000 μs waveform, per Figure 1 and Table on page 2 of the Vishay datasheet. This value is measured under standardized surge conditions and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during transient events.

What packaging format does TPSMP24AHM3/85A ship in?

TPSMP24AHM3/85A ships in 13-inch diameter plastic tape and reel format, with a base quantity of 10,000 units per reel, as specified in the Ordering Information section (page 3) of the Vishay datasheet. The "85A" suffix denotes this specific reel configuration and is part of the official orderable part number.
