This varistor, with approximately five times higher surge current capability than a standard multilayer varistor of the same case size (2220) is designed specifically for use in applications with certain harsh environmental conditions. Offering excellent transient energy absorption due to improved energy volume distribution and power dissipation, this varistor is available with 50 Vrms rated voltage in a 2220 SMD package with a 4500A surge current capability.
Features
- High surge capability
- Short response time
- Low clamping voltage - Vc
- Low sensitivity to mildly activated fluxe
- +125 °C maximum continuous operating temperature
- RoHS compliant*
Applications
- Suppression of inductive switching or other transient events such as surge voltage at the circuit board level
- Replaces larger surface mount TVS Zener Diodes in many applications
- Electromagnetic compliance of end products
- On-board transient voltage protection of ICs and transistors
