B72510V0250K072

The B72510V0250K072 is a Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) device specifically designed to protect against transient overstress in electronic circuits. Its dual function combining Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) and Surge protection ensures the safety of electronic circuits from transient voltages. With an IEC certified, ESD compliant performance of 20 kV, the device is suitable for ESD protection of applications requiring high performance.

The TVS device is based on Varistors, MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors), a type of non-linear overvoltage protected component. MOVs work by providing a short to ground when the voltage on the device exceeds its rated value. The component is typically constructed as a ceramic disc with an internal dielectric medium. When the voltage on the component exceeds the MOV rating, the dielectric medium breaks down and a low resistance path is provided to ground.

The B72510V0250K072 has excellent clamping characteristics and is designed to withstand high peak currents and short duration voltage transients. Its construction ensures low leakage current at normal voltages, while its low level of leakage also helps reduce the chances of component damage or malfunction due to excessive dissipation. MOVs also have a very fast response time, making them suitable for a wide range of applications where high-speed response is needed. In addition, the device has high reliability and stability over a wide temperature range.

MOVs are widely used in applications to protect against lightning strikes, high current surges, and short duration voltage transients. They are often found in automotive and industrial applications, particularly power supplies. The B72510V0250K072 is designed for use in high voltage applications such as those found in the aerospace, military and telecommunications industries.

The B72510V0250K072 is ideal for protecting against transient overvoltage conditions in applications that require the highest levels of protection and safety. Its low capacitance and high ESD protection ensure that it can protect delicate electronic circuits from damage, while its excellent clamping characteristics ensure that it will continue to protect even under harsh transient voltage conditions. Furthermore, its fast response time and high reliability make it ideal for use in a wide range of applications where safety and reliability are paramount.
