TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) diodes, Varistors, and MOVs (Metal-Oxide Varistors) are all valuable components used in providing voltage protection for a variety of electronic devices. The V140LC20CPX10 is a common Metal-Oxide Varistor with a non-linear protection circuit that helps reduce transient voltage surges. Here, we will cover the application field and working principle of this particular varistor.

Application Field

The V140LC20CPX10 Metal-Oxide Varistor can be used in a variety of electronic devices requiring transient voltage protection. It is specially designed for use in low-cost consumer devices, such as computers, cell phones, laptops, household appliances, and audio/visual equipment. This varistor is also used to protect hearing aids and medical devices from damage due to voltage and current transients.

It can be used in communication software applications like CIM, Tx/Rx circuits, digital communication, ATM and PABX. The V140LC20CPX10 varistor provides better protection than other varistors in the application of Network Equipment, with the help of low V-I characteristics. Further, it is widely preferred for Power Supply Systems, Uninterruptible Power Supply Systems and Cellular Phone Battery Charge Systems.

Working Principle

The V140LC20CPX10 Metal-Oxide Varistor functions by regulating power delivery in the event of a surge or spike. If the voltage exceeds the threshold level of the device, the metal oxide in the varistor will conduct a quick, low-voltage flow of current. This helps reduce the voltage to a safe level, and will prevent the device or equipment from being damaged by a sudden surge.

The varistor contains two nodes: the cathode and anode. When the voltage across these two nodes is greater than the breakdown voltage, a low electrostatic discharge will be triggered. This discharge quick conducts current and releases an avalanche of electrons, which helps reduce the voltage. The circuit will then be restored to its original state, and the electronic equipment will be protected from any further damage.

The V140LC20CPX10 Metal-Oxide Varistor is a reliable way of protecting electronic devices and equipment from voltage or current transients. Its ability to quickly conduct current and release an avalanche of electrons helps prevent damage to important electronic components. With its wide range of applications, the V140LC20CPX10 is a valuable tool for solving voltage protection needs.
