TPS25981EVM: TVS uni-type or Bi-type?

Part Number: TPS25981EVM


Tool/software:

Hi Arush, 

Customer saw the TPS255981 EVM user guide showed the D2 TVS 13V is Uni-part, but I also check the spec have Bi-type. Can you confirm any impact if choice Bi part?

With this condition, would you let me know what is the difference or impact if use Uni&Bi type?

Customer put 14V TVS in circuit was Uni component and I saw EVM list also use Uni.

TPS25981EVM show list:

Best regards,

Randy

  • Hi Randy,

    unidirectional or bidirectional TVS doesn't matter because our use case only require clamping positive transients.

    Please feel free to reply back here for any follow up question. If I am on leave, please create new thread with correct part number (do not assign that thread to me).
