TTI Stocks AVX TransGuard Varistor with EMI/RFI Filtering
TTI has stocked the AVX TransGuard automotive series multilayer varistors (MLV).
The VCAS and VGAS series provide a wide range of highly reliable overvoltage protection devices which are AEC-Q200 qualified, surface mount, and provides EMI/RFI attenuation in the off-state.
TransGuard MLVs are zinc oxide (ZnO) based ceramic semiconductor devices and have the added advantage of greater current and energy handling capabilities with very fast turn-on times.
The AVX VGAS series parts are glass encapsulated and provide the same high reliability as traditional VCAS series parts. The glass encapsulation provides enhanced resistance against harsh environment or process such as acids, salts, chlorite flux.
Both series are available in case sizes from 0402 to 3220, working voltage from 3.3 to 85Vdc, energy rating up to 13J, and load dump rating up to 25J. Operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C with no derating.
