GENERAL DESCRIPTION
These Multi Layer Varistors are small, leadless, surface mount packages made of multiple layers of Zinc Oxide, with
electrodes between them. They are used to help protect integrated circuits and other sensitive equipment. Their
small size is ideal for high density printed circuit boards.
BENEFITS
Help to protect sensitive equipment against typical ESD, EMC and EOS (Electrical Over Stress) events
and transients
Cost efficient assembly and protection
Resistance to standard wave solder fluxes, provides excellent solderability
Space savings
Longer battery life due to low leakage current
FEATURES
Bidirectional clamping
Compatible with standard surface mount methods
Low and stable leakage current
Low clamping voltage
Quick response time (<1ns)
High transient current capability
RoHS Compliant
APPLICATIONS SYMBOL
ESD, EMC and EOS protection of:
Computer I/O ports and interfaces (USB, IEEE 1394, etc…)
Portable devices
Automotive electronic circuits
Telecom equipment
Medical instruments
MATERIALS INFORMATION
ROHS Compliant ELV Compliant
