Image of KYOCERA/AVX Advantages of Multilayer Varistor Versus TVS Diodes - Faster Turn-On Time

Multilayer varistors will generally have a much quicker turn-on time than silicon TVS diodes that are wire bonded. This quick response is critical to help prevent any additional damage to the circuit. The wire bonds connecting the silicon to the termination of TVS diodes have large enough values of parasitic inductance that can lead to significant clamping delays.
