Unidirectional TVS: A TVS device with asymmetrical
current versus voltage (I−V) properties. A unidirectional
TVS is best suited for protecting circuit nodes whose signals
are unidirectional or always above or below the reference
voltage, usually ground.
Bidirectional TVS: A TVS device with symmetrical I−V
properties. A bidirectional TVS is best suited for protecting
electrical nodes whose signals are bidirectional or can have
voltage levels both above and below the reference voltage,
usually ground

What is the difference between detector and diode detector?
difference between detector and diode
Why is a diode called unidirectional?
A diode is unidirectional because of the diode only conduct in forwardbias .As you know the diode have two terminal cathode and anode . and when the positive terminal of battery connected to the p-side and other terminal connected to the other terminal of diode then diode is called forward biased . and when it connection is just opposite then it become in reverse biased . so we can finally say that the diode is unidirectional
What is the difference between p n junction and zener diode?
The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization. Also, the zener diode can function in the breakdown region while the pn-juntion diode can not function in that regime.
What is the difference between a Shockley diode and a Shottky diode?
A Shockley diode is a primitive diode identical to a thyristor with it's gate left disconnected. A Schottky diode is similar to a normal avalanche diode except that it's forward voltage is quite low, and it's switching speed is very high.
What is the Difference between diode OA79 and IN4007?
The only difference is the maximum repetitive capability which is maximum for IN4007 compared to OA79
