TVS (transient voltage suppressors) are unidirectional, non-polarized semiconductor devices used for protection against destructive surges and overvoltage transients. Varistors, also known as charge-storage type MOVs (metal oxide varistors), are one of the most popular and widely used types of transient voltage suppressors. The EZA-EG2N50AX is one such varistor, and is designed for the protection of electronic circuits in industrial, medical and consumer applications.

The EZA-EG2N50AX varistor is a non-linear, bi-directional component with a symmetrical response to voltage, providing power transient protection over a full range of operational voltages. It boasts a maximum voltage of 450V AC and a breakdown voltage of 400V. The device also offers a high surge current capability of up to 12.5 kA (8/20 μs). Additionally, it has a maximum leakage current of 15 μA at rated voltage.

Apart from providing protection against power transients, the EZA-EG2N50AX varistor also has a wide variety of applications, including:

• High voltage protection for electronic circuits in industrial, medical and consumer applications.
• Overvoltage protection in communication systems.
• Surge protection for power supply lines.
• Lightning protection in outdoor installations.
• EMI/RFI protection in electrical and electronic systems.

The EZA-EG2N50AX can also be used as a DC blocking device to prevent DC flowing through a circuit, or as a clamping device to reduce the amplitude of AC signals.

The working principle of the EZA-EG2N50AX is based on the fact that, when the voltage applied across the device exceeds the rated breakdown voltage (typically 400V), the current flowing through the device increases exponentially. This property is known as the varistor effect, and it is what enables the EZA-EG2N50AX to suppress overvoltage transients and provide a high level of surge protection to the circuit.

In conclusion, the EZA-EG2N50AX is a versatile varistor that can be used in a wide range of applications. Its symmetrical voltage response, high surge current capability, and low leakage current make it ideal for overvoltage protection and surge suppression in various electronic circuits. Although it may not be suitable for every application, its robust design provides the user with a reliable and effective surge protection solution.
