●AVR Ser ies AVR-M, AVRL Types

●Varistors are voltage dependent nonlinear resistive elements with a resistance that decreases rapidly when the voltage is over the constant value. Varistor is equivalent with Zener diode of two series connection. Therefore, do not have polarity.

●FEATURES

●•  No polarity, due to symmetrical current-voltage characteristics.

●    Equivalent to anode common type Zener diode.

●•  Excellent electrostatic absorption capability.

●   Response is as good or better than Zener diode.

●   Keeps symmetrical current-voltage characteristics even after electrostatic absorption.

●•  Adopted the inner electrodes lamination structure.

●   Wide range of varistor voltages are available in series (6.8 to 39V).

●   Low capacitance items are available in series (1.1pF to).

●   World’s smallest 0402-, 0603-, 1005-, 1608-, 2012-chip types are available in series.

●•  Excellent mount reliability. Good for Pb-free soldering.

●   Adopted (Ni/Sn) electroplating.

●   Achieved good solderability and solder heat resistance.

●•  Can replace a Zener diode + capacitor combination. 

●   Reduced footprint and total mounting cost.

●APPLICATIONS

●• Electrostatic absorption

●• Pulse noise absorption
