A TransZorb is a silicon transient voltage suppressor that

has exceptional surge handling capabilities, fast response

time, and low series resistance. They are available from

General Semiconductor Industries and come in a variety of

breakdown voltages and prices. Be sure to pick a break-

down voltage higher than the common-mode voltage

required for your application (typically 12V). Also, don’t

forget to check how much the added parasitic capacitance

will load down the bus.
