TVS - Varistors, MOVs

Metal Oxide Varistors, commonly known as MOVs, are an important component used in a variety of applications including overvoltage protection, and various surge and noise suppression circuits. The MOV-10D101KTR is a good example of an MOV which has a wide range of applications.

• Operation

The MOV-10D101KTR is a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diode designed to protect circuits from overvoltage transients. It works by providing a path to ground for excess energy created by an overvoltage, or surge. The MOV will conduct current when voltage exceeds the rated breakdown voltage, and then quickly dissipates the energy through the diode junction. The MOV-10D101KTR has an internal resistance, which allows for voltage regulation in some applications.

• Specifications

The MOV-10D101KTR is a FR4 board-mounted MOV with a maximum surge dissipation of 10,000 Amps (10KA). It has a maximum operating voltage of 600V and a rated breakdown voltage of 859V. The MOV has a high clamping voltage of 1693V, and a low clamping voltage of 1412V.

• Applications

The MOV-10D101KTR Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) is designed for use in a variety of surge and overvoltage protection applications. It can be used to protect circuits from voltage transients caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, lightning strikes, or other sources of high voltage. It is commonly used in sensitive electronics such as digital video equipment, computers, modems, and cellular phones. It can also be used for automotive applications such as electronic control units, electronic fuel injection (EFI) systems, and airbag systems.

• Conclusion

The MOV-10D101KTR is a versatile Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) that is designed to offer protection from transient voltage spikes, surges, and ESD events. It can be used for a wide range of applications, including overvoltage protection for sensitive electronics, automotive control units, and other surge protection circuits. Its high surge dissipation rating, combined with the low clamping voltage, make it an ideal choice for many applications.
