TVS0500: vs PTVS5V0S1UR

Part Number: TVS0500
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPD1S514, TVS1400, TVS1401

Dear Cameron,

you suggested to use TVS0500 for USB VBUS ESD protection. We are looking at the comparison between TVS0500 and traditional TVS, and i'm not sure that the TVS0500 is better than PTVS5V0S1UR.

1)

The clamping voltage of both devices is 9.2V.

If we look at the 10/1000 the TVS0500 can absorb 180W while the PTVS5V0S1UR can absorb 400W

If we look at the 8/20 (61000-4-5) the TVS0500 can absorb 400W while the PTVS5V0S1UR , i'm not sure how to calculate, do you know how to calculate from 10/1000 to 8/20? ( if i follow the fig3 on page 6 of PTVS5V0S1UR for duration of 20us it can absorb 2000W) 

2)

so can you tell which device is better regarding to 61000-4-5?

3) 

please can you confirm that the TVS0500 complies to  61000-4-4?

4)

please can you confirm that the TVS0500 complies to 61000-4-2 Level 4?

Best Regards,

David.
