Transient Voltage Suppression diode application notesTechnical Note 4048 Effective December 2017 Supersedes 2009 OverviewTransient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diodes are useful in protecting electronic circuits from electrostatic discharge (ESD). The TVS diodes used for ESD protection are silicon-avalanche a high impedance at the stand-off Voltage and low impedance at the breakdown Voltage , silicon-avalanche diodes are well suited for ESD better understand the TVS diode s application for ESD protection, one must first understand how the diode works in general and, in particular, how the silicon-avalanche diode differs from the Zener diode vs. Zener DiodeSilicon-avalanche diodes (SADs) are similar to Zener diodes. SADs are even sometimes mistaken for Zener diodes because of their similar electrical characteristics. The Zener diode and SADs both conduct in the reverse direction if the Voltage through it exceeds a set breakdown diode : This corresponds to the transport of electrons from the positively doped side of the diode to the holes of the negatively doped side of the diode (Figure 1).
