6. Transient-voltage-suppression diode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient-voltage...

   A transient-voltage-suppression diode can respond to over-voltages faster than other common over-voltage protection components such as varistors or gas discharge tubes. The actual clamping occurs in roughly one picosecond, but in a practical circuit the inductance of the wires leading to the device imposes a higher limit. This makes transient ...
