TIPS guarantee you get at least principal back @ maturity, so they kind of protect from deflation, although worst case scenario you could receive nothing back but your investment (which during deflation is still good compared to other investments)
Deflation is great for fixed rate bonds. You are earning 5% on some long term treasury while everyone else is losing with negative nominal rates.
