Varistors, also known as Voltage Dependent Resistors (VDRs), are two-terminal passive variable resistor devices that alter their electrical resistance in response to a change in voltage. The V140LC10AP is a non-linear varistor designed for use as an over-voltage protector. It has a wide range of uses and applications in the electronics industry.

The V140LC10AP has a breakdown voltage of 140V with a clamping voltage of 370V. It has a surge current of 10A and a surge energy of 30J. The device is RoHS compliant and comes in the form of a disc-shaped ceramic element with a nickel-plated zinc-alloy termination.

The working principle of the V140LC10AP is based on the phenomenon of avalanche electron multiplication. This occurs when the breakdown voltage of the varistor is exceeded and the varistor conducts an increasingly large current until it is clamped. The device then actively absorbs and diverts the excess energy to ground.

The V140LC10AP is primarily employed in the protection of sensitive electronic circuits against overvoltage transients. These transients can be caused by lightning strikes, motor contactor operations, switching inductive loads, and other transient sources. The device can also be used in the application of suppressing electrostatic discharges.

As a robust ESD protection varistor, the V140LC10AP is well-suited for protecting single-ended bus interfaces, such as Ethernet, USB, FIBRE Channel, secondary power distribution, and audio/video interfaces against electrostatic discharges. Additionally, it is suitable for protection against voltage surges from motors and other switching operations.

Applications for the V140LC10AP also include the protection of data and telecom systems, hot swappable cards, and other sensitive and mission-critical components. The device can also be used as an arc suppressor circuit in automotive and industrial applications.

Overall, the V140LC10AP is an efficient and reliable over-voltage protection device with a wide range of applications in the electronics industry. Its robust construction and high power handling capabilities make it ideal for protecting a variety of sensitive components and systems against transient overvoltage surges.
