[0002] Transient suppression diodes (TVS), also known as clamping diodes, are a type of high-efficiency circuit protection device currently used internationally. When the two poles of a TVS diode are subjected to a reverse transient high-energy impact, it can change the high impedance between the two poles to a low impedance at a speed of 10 to the negative 12th power of seconds, absorbing surge power of up to several kilowatts and clamping the voltage between the two poles to a predetermined value, effectively protecting the precision components in electronic circuits from damage by various surge pulses. It has the advantages of fast response time, high transient power, low leakage current, low breakdown voltage deviation, easy to control clamping voltage, no damage limit, and small size.

The two contacts of the multimeter are connected to the TVS tube respectively, and the continuity test of the TVS tube is performed in one direction. After that, the two contacts of the multimeter need to be manually swapped. That is, the two contacts of the multimeter need to be swapped to perform the continuity test of the TVS tube in the other direction. The manual operation is cumbersome and labor-intensive, especially when testing a large number of TVS tubes, as the above operation needs to be repeated one by one. Utility Model Content
