    Answer

    1 Features and Applications: Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) is a new type of overvoltage protection device developed on the basis of Zener diode technology.The clamp time is defined as the time required to reach the minimum breakdown voltage from zero volts.The transient voltage suppression diode has a very short clamping time, only Ins, which can withstand transient pulse peak currents of tens to hundreds of amps.Its performance is better than that of varistor (VSR) and the parameters are consistent.‘ Category

    2: Transient voltage suppression diodes can be classified into four categories according to their peak pulse power, namely 500W, 1000W, 1 500W, 5000W.Each class is divided into several types according to its nominal voltage, with a minimum breakdown voltage of 8.2V and a maximum of 200V.
