Dear E2E,
without hot plug-in and out, Does TVS and Zener still require to protect TPS25982?
Due to PCB space concern, customer is consideration to remove both.

Hi Jason,
The transient protection (TVS, zener) need varies from system to system depending on the impedance at the input/output. Hot-plug event, breaking the path (fast turn-off) during short circuit event are some of the events which decide the need of protection elements. If not hot-plugged, Please test the transient voltages under overload, short circuit events and then decide.
