00:00If you're building or repairing electronics, you already know how brutal a voltage spike can be,
00:04it takes one surge to fry an expensive board. So I went digging and found the best deals out
00:10there for the top 5 TVS diodes for surge protection, and trust me, these are worth a look.
00:15First up, we've got a massive 20-piece assortment of DO27 TVS diodes rated at 1500 watts,
00:22covering everything from 6.8 volts all the way up to 440 volts in the 1.5 KE series.
00:28This is basically the ultimate starter kit if you want one box that handles almost any project,
00:34whether it's automotive or general circuit protection. It's only $4.45, it's sold nearly
00:405,000 times, and it holds a perfect 5-star rating that combo tells you everything.
00:46Next, the P6KE series set gives you 20 diodes focused on the lower breakdown voltages,
00:51with parts like the P6KE 27A, 30A, 33A, 36A, and 51A, plus the 91A. If you're working on smaller
01:00signal lines and want reliable clamping without overkill, this is a fantastic grab. At just $2.56
01:07for 20 pieces, with almost 4,900 sold and a solid 5-star rating, it's an easy yes.
01:14Then we've got the higher-voltage P6KE lineup, 20 pieces running from 100A up to 250A.
01:20These are the ones you reach for when you're protecting power rails that see bigger transients,
01:25and having the whole range in one bag saves you from hunting down individual values later.
01:30It's priced at $3.14, sitting at nearly 4,900 sold with a 5-star rating, great value for the
01:37coverage.
01:38Now, this one's a little different. The SRV05-4.TCT is a tiny SOTY 23-6 surface-mount ESD diode,
01:47and it's perfect for board-level protection where space is tight, like USB ports and data lines.
01:52You get 10 of them for just a quarter, 25 cents total, and with over 4,800 sold at a
01:584.9 rating,
01:59it's a no-brainer to keep a few in your parts drawer.
02:02Last but not least, the 1.5KE33A is a single-value transient suppression diode that's ideal if you
02:09already know you need that specific 33-volt clamping point and want a dependable, focused part.
02:14It's $2.94, has moved around 4,750 units, and carries a 5-star rating, straightforward,
02:22proven, and reliable. So those are my top 5 TBS diode picks for keeping your gear safe from surges.
