TVS - Varistors, MOVs are widely used to protect sensitive electrical components and circuits from transient overloads. The B72590T0140L960 is an example of such components, offering important features such as an operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C and a voltage coefficient of maximum = 6.6. The device is suitable for the following applications:

Application Field

• Automotive electronics for short over-voltage protection
• Industrial/consumer electronics for short over-voltage protection
• Signal line protection on computer buses
• Protection of ground potential against over-voltage

Working Principle

The working principle of the B72590T0140L960 is based on its inherent capacitance property, which helps to absorb transient over-voltage. The device consists of an array of varistors that conduct current when the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage of the varistor. The varistor acts like a super-capacitor, storing and releasing energy very quickly when this voltage is exceeded. This protects the component or circuit connected to the device, preventing damage or interference by the over-voltage.

The varistor has a very low capacitance, so it can be used in systems that require high-speed response. This makes it ideal for the protection of signal lines, where it can absorb transient over-voltages without allowing them to disturb the signal passing through the line. It also has a very low impedance, which ensures a fast response to transient over-voltages.

In addition, the device is designed to be capable of handling high currents without damaging itself or the components it is protecting. It also has an improved thermal performance, allowing it to handle higher voltages without compromising safety or reliability. Additionally, it has an improved dielectric strength, making it suitable for international protection requirements.

Overall, the B72590T0140L960 is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications needing transient over-voltage protection.
