TVS Diode: Symbol, Construction, Working, Types and Applications

A TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) diode is a specialized semiconductor device used to protect electronic circuits from high-voltage transients such as electrostatic discharge (ESD), lightning surges, and switching spikes. It responds extremely fast and clamps overvoltage to a safe level before they damage sensitive components. Modern electronic systems are highly sensitive to voltage spikes caused […]

Surge Protector Circuit Diagram, Working, Types and Applications

A surge protector is an electronic protection device designed to safeguard electrical and electronic equipment from voltage surges (transient overvoltage). A voltage surge is a sudden and short-duration spike in voltage that exceeds the normal operating voltage of a system. These surges may last from a few nanoseconds to milliseconds but can reach several kilovolts […]
