Aug 20, 2022 at 16:25 comment added DKNguyen I would think that would be fine, but it kinda depends since the range that a TVS will clamp to depends on the current it is clamping. There's a lot of voodoo around ESD protection anyways. Like layout, chassis and stuff.
Aug 20, 2022 at 16:24 comment added jiwopene Is it safe to use the 16V TVS to protect a N-MOSFET with V<sub>GS</sub>=20V?
Aug 20, 2022 at 16:23 comment added jiwopene Yep. A shop with tens (maybe hunderds) of thousands various components is probably unable to make sure that all of them have proper descriptions. ☺
Aug 20, 2022 at 16:21 comment added DKNguyen Oh they are marketed as bidirectional? Anyways, it's fine.
Aug 20, 2022 at 16:20 comment added jiwopene I have multiple FETs, so I will use them as unidirectional TVSes. I ask for the bidirectional usage because they are ① sold as bidirectional and ② I can use them at other places as bidirectional ones.
Aug 20, 2022 at 16:16 comment added DKNguyen Yes you can use it as a bidirectional TVS...but why would you want to use it as a bidirectonal TVS to protect a MOSFET? That just protects the MOSFET less since it's not a bidirectional device.
