What Does TVS Stand For?
TVS stands for Transient Voltage Suppressor
Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) is a protective device designed to safeguard electronic circuits against voltage spikes and transients, such as those caused by electrical surges or lightning strikes. It operates by clamping excess voltage to a safe level, thereby preventing damage to sensitive components. TVS devices are commonly used in a variety of applications, including consumer electronics, telecommunications, and industrial equipment, to enhance circuit reliability and performance.
