Product details
Overview
TPSMP24HM3/84A from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in DO-220AA (SMP) package, designed for high-reliability automotive and industrial circuit protection. It features a 21.6 V to 26.4 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 34.7 V clamping voltage (VC) at 11.5 A peak pulse current, 400 W peak pulse power rating, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood electronics.
For engineers reviewing the TPSMP24HM3/84A datasheet, TPSMP24HM3/84A pinout, TPSMP24HM3/84A application, or TPSMP24HM3/84A equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional polarity, 19.4 V stand-off voltage (VWM), 1.0 μA max reverse leakage at VWM, 185 °C junction temperature capability, and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity.
Technical Context
This TVS diode employs passivated anisotropic rectifier technology optimized for low incremental surge resistance and fast response time (<1 ns), enabling effective suppression of ESD and lightning-induced transients per IEC 61000-4-2 and ISO 7637-2. Its unidirectional configuration provides forward conduction path during overvoltage events while maintaining low leakage in normal operation.
The device operates across -65 °C to +185 °C junction temperature range and is rated for 40 A non-repetitive forward surge current (IFSM). Its DO-220AA package supports automated placement and meets UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements with matte tin-plated leads compliant to J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR (min/max) | 21.6 V / 26.4 V - ensures reliable triggering above system operating voltage while avoiding false clamping |
| VWM | 19.4 V - maximum continuous reverse voltage before leakage exceeds 1.0 μA, suitable for 12 V/24 V automotive rails |
| VC @ IPPM | 34.7 V at 11.5 A - limits transient voltage to safe levels for downstream ICs and transistors |
| PPPM | 400 W - peak pulse power handling for 10/1000 μs waveform, critical for load dump and ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a |
| TJ max | +185 °C - enables use in high-temperature engine bay environments without derating |
| Polarity | Unidirectional - provides forward-biased conduction path for negative transients on positive rails |
| MSL Level | Level 1 (260 °C peak reflow) - supports standard SMT assembly without dry pack or baking |
Pinout & Package
DO-220AA (SMP) package: ultra-low-profile surface-mount case with 1.0 mm typical height, cathode indicated by color band, matte tin-plated terminals, and 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm thermal pad layout per datasheet recommendation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode | Forward current entry during clamping | Connected to protected line (e.g., 24 V supply rail); conducts when transient exceeds VBR |
| Cathode | Forward current exit / reference node | Connected to ground or lower-potential return path; color band identifies this terminal |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per stress test plan |
| Junction passivation | Reduces surface leakage and improves long-term stability under high humidity and bias conditions |
| Low profile (1.0 mm height) | Enables compact PCB layouts in space-constrained modules such as ADAS ECUs and body control units |
| Very fast response time | <1 ns turn-on ensures clamping before sensitive components experience damaging overvoltage |
| MSL Level 1 compliance | Eliminates pre-reflow baking and simplifies manufacturing for high-volume automotive production |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar transient voltage suppression applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMAJ24A-E3/5T | DO-214AC (SMA) package; 24 V nominal VBR; 400 W PPPM; same VC (38.9 V), but 0.3 mm taller (2.3 mm vs. 1.0 mm) | Less suitable for ultra-thin modules; higher thermal resistance due to smaller pad area | Select when legacy SMA footprint exists and height constraint is relaxed |
| TPSMA6.8A-Q | Same DO-220AA package; lower VBR (6.45–7.14 V); 300 W PPPM; AEC-Q101 qualified | Designed for 5 V logic rail protection, not 24 V systems | Choose only for sub-12 V applications requiring identical form factor and automotive qualification |
Compared with SMAJ24A-E3/5T and TPSMA6.8A-Q, the TPSMP24HM3/84A delivers optimal combination of ultra-low profile (1.0 mm), 24 V system compatibility, and full AEC-Q101 validation-making it the preferred choice for next-generation automotive modules where board space and thermal performance are critical.

FAQ
What is the breakdown voltage tolerance for TPSMP24HM3/84A?
The TPSMP24HM3/84A has a specified breakdown voltage (VBR) range of 21.6 V to 26.4 V at 1.0 mA test current, corresponding to ±10 % tolerance around the nominal 24 V rating. This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of Vishay document 88471 and applies strictly to the TPSMP24A variant denoted by the "A" suffix in the part number.
Is TPSMP24HM3/84A suitable for bidirectional transient protection?
No, the TPSMP24HM3/84A is unidirectional only, as explicitly stated in the Features section of its datasheet. It clamps positive transients on the cathode side relative to anode and does not protect against reverse-polarity events. For bidirectional protection, a separate device such as the SMBJ24CA would be required-not the TPSMP24HM3/84A.
What is the maximum clamping voltage of TPSMP24HM3/84A under surge conditions?
The TPSMP24HM3/84A exhibits a maximum clamping voltage (VC) of 34.7 V at 11.5 A peak pulse current (IPPM) for a 10/1000 μs waveform. This value is measured per Figure 1 and Table on page 2 of Vishay document 88471 and defines the upper voltage limit imposed on protected circuitry during standardized surge events.
Does TPSMP24HM3/84A require special PCB layout considerations?
Yes-the TPSMP24HM3/84A requires 5.0 mm × 5.0 mm copper pads attached to each terminal for rated PPPM performance, as specified in Note (2) of the Maximum Ratings table. Smaller pads will reduce thermal dissipation and cause premature failure under repeated surge conditions. The DO-220AA outline drawing on page 4 confirms pad dimensions and cathode band orientation.
How does the HM3 suffix affect the specifications of TPSMP24HM3/84A?
The HM3 suffix indicates halogen-free, RoHS-compliant construction with JESD 201 Class 2 whisker resistance and AEC-Q101 qualification-identical to base TPSMP24A functionality. The "/84A" denotes 7" tape-and-reel packaging (3000 units), but does not alter electrical or thermal specs. All performance data in document 88471 apply directly to TPSMP24HM3/84A.
