The MLV0402-250K-C400 is a device in the TVS - Varistors, MOVs family, used for protecting sensitive electronic components against transient voltage. This device works by preventing excessive current flow to sensitive component that can be created by electrostatic discharges, induced transients, and switching transients. The device offers maximum protection when its maximum clamping voltage is triggered.

The MLV0402-250K-C400 can be used in a wide range of application fields, such as automotive, industrial, computer, communications, and consumer electronics. The device is typically used as a supplementary protection element in electronic circuits, offering protection against electrostatic discharges, induced transients, and switching transients . It is designed to be used with other components to prevent excessive voltage from reaching highly sensitive components, providing complete protection.

When it comes to its operating principle, the MLV0402-250K-C400 is basically a three-terminal type nonlinear resistor, which means that the voltage-current characteristic of the device depends upon the amount of voltage that is applied to it. In normal nonlinear resistor applications, the device is used to protect against current surges, overvoltage, and other sudden increases in voltage. However, the MLV0402-250K-C400 works differently—it is designed to protect against excessive voltage spikes, current surges, and other sudden transient events. When a transient event occurs, the device will regulate the applied voltage and limit the current flow to a maximum clamping voltage, preventing it from reaching sensitive components connected to the device.

The MLV0402-250K-C400 offers a wide range of features and benefits, making it an ideal protection element for many applications. It is low cost, small in size, and easy to install. It also offers a wide operating range, with a maximum clamping voltage of 250 volts and a breakdown voltage of 400 volts. In addition, the device has a fast response time—it can respond to transient events within ten nano-seconds. This fast response time allows the MLV0402-250K-C400 to be used in high frequency applications, where it can react quickly to sudden changes in voltage or current.

Overall, the MLV0402-250K-C400 is a versatile and reliable device that offers excellent protection for a wide variety of applications. Its small size, wide operating range, fast response time, and low cost make it an ideal protection element for electronic circuits in many industries, from automotive and industrial to computer, communications, and consumer electronics. Its three-terminal design also makes it easy to connect and integrate with a variety of other components, ensuring complete protection against voltage spikes and transience events.
