Product details
Overview
TPSMP33AHM3_A/H from Vishay General Semiconductor is a unidirectional transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in the PAR® family, designed for high-reliability automotive and industrial overvoltage protection. It features a 31.4 V to 34.7 V breakdown voltage (VBR), 45.7 V clamping voltage (VC) at 8.8 A peak pulse current, 400 W peak pulse power (10/1000 µs), 185 °C maximum junction temperature, and SMP (DO-220AA) package with 1.0 mm typical height.
For engineers reviewing the TPSMP33AHM3_A/H datasheet, TPSMP33AHM3_A/H pinout, TPSMP33AHM3_A/H application, or TPSMP33AHM3_A/H equivalent, key selection criteria include unidirectional clamping performance, AEC-Q101 qualification, low-profile surface-mount compatibility, and robust surge handling in sensor interface and power rail protection circuits.
Technical Context
The TPSMP33AHM3_A/H uses passivated anisotropic rectifier technology optimized for fast response (<1 ns) and low incremental surge resistance, enabling precise clamping during ESD and lightning-induced transients. Its unidirectional configuration supports DC-biased signal and power lines where reverse conduction must be blocked.
Rated for TJ = −65 °C to +185 °C and qualified to AEC-Q101, it operates reliably under automotive thermal cycling and humidity exposure. The SMP (DO-220AA) package delivers high power density with MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity and matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102.
Key Specifications

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 @ 7.5 A); SMA package (2.3 mm height) | Less suitable for space-constrained automotive modules due to taller profile and reduced thermal derating margin | Select TPSMP33AHM3_A/H when board height ≤1.0 mm and TJ > 150 °C operation is required |
| TPSMA6.8A | Same family, lower VBR (6.45–7.14 V); identical SMP package and AEC-Q101 qualification | Designed for 5 V rail protection; not interchangeable for 24–32 V systems without redesign | Choose TPSMP33AHM3_A/H specifically for 28.2 V stand-off and 45.7 V clamping in 32 V nominal systems |
Compared with SMAJ33A and TPSMA6.8A, the TPSMP33AHM3_A/H delivers superior power density in a 1.0 mm profile, tighter VBR tolerance (±4.9 %), and validated 185 °C operation-making it optimal for next-generation automotive and industrial designs where thermal headroom and board real estate are constrained.
