ROV14E201K-S Datasheet/PDFTVS (transient voltage suppressor) is a type of protection device which operates by clamping the voltage to a specific level. There are mainly two types of protection devices, Varistors and MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors). Varistors work by redirecting the excess current away from the sensitive load, while MOVs work by absorbing the excess energy generated by transient voltages.
ROV14E201K-S is a type of Varistor designed to protect against ESD (electrostatic discharge) and EMI (electromagnetic interference). This device provides highly effective ESD and EMI protection by quickly absorbing the excess voltage and redirecting it away from the sensitive components of the system.
This Varistor is also designed to work in both AC and DC modes, providing additional performance benefits for systems with different types of input voltage. In AC mode, the device can quickly clamp high energy transients to a safe level, and in DC mode, the Varistor can quickly discharge the excess current away from the system.
One of the primary applications of ROV14E201K-S Varistor is for ESD and EMI protection in computer systems. With this device, the system can be protected against electrostatic discharges as high as 25kV and electromagnetic interference as high as 10dB. This high level of protection ensures the system is safeguarded against any sudden increases in voltage from either an AC or DC source.
In addition, the ROV14E201K-S Varistor has been designed for use in a wide variety of other applications, including automotive, industrial, medical, and consumer electronics. It can be used as a protection device for any system which requires protection from high transient voltages and currents.
The working principle of the ROV14E201K-S Varistor is that it uses a MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) to absorb the transient energy and redirect it away from the sensitive components. The MOV contains a charge which when exposed to an increase in voltage, it will increase its resistance to absorb the energy. This absorption of energy then dissipates away from the system, protecting the sensitive components from damage.
The ROV14E201K-S Varistor also uses a combination of positive temperature coefficient (PTC) and negative temperature coefficient (NTC) resistors to ensure that the maximum amount of energy is absorbed at the lowest possible temperature. This provides an additional level of protection, preventing the system from becoming damaged due to excessive heat.
The ROV14E201K-S Varistor is an ideal protection device for a variety of applications. Its highly effective ESD and EMI protection, combined with its ability to work in both AC and DC modes, makes it perfect for the protection of sensitive systems from transient voltages and currents.
