V14MLA1206A

V14MLA1206A is a low cost radial leaded, thermally protected, high quality varistor. It is a two terminal nonlinear device with a resistance that is greatly dependent on the applied voltage. This varistor is suitable for applications such as surge protection, spike suppression, and transient over-voltage protection.

The V14MLA1206A is made with a sintered metal oxide core and two silver-plated copper connecting terminals. The electrical characteristics of the component are determined by the material and the construction of the component. The main electrical parameters of the component are the maximum voltage rating (Vmax) and the maximum current rating (Imax). The V14MLA1206A varistor has a Vmax rating of 300V and an Imax of 40A.

The varistor works on the principle of nonlinear resistance. When the applied voltage is below the specified Vmax value, the varistor displays linear resistance and behaves like a resistor in the circuit. However, when the applied voltage rises above the Vmax value, the varistor undergoes a sudden increase in resistance. This sudden increase in resistance provides a protection mechanism against voltage transients and over-voltages.

The V14MLA1206A is used in a wide range of applications including telecom andradio equipment, automotive electronic systems, LED lighting, and medical equipment. It is also suitable for surge protection of power supplies, motor control circuits, domestic appliances, and personal computers. The varistor can be used for transient over-voltage protection of circuit board traces and components to prevent them from damage due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and other electric fields.

The V14MLA1206A is a low cost, high quality varistor. It can be used for surge and spike protection in a wide range of applications. The varistor is easy to install and provides reliable protection against potential disturbances due to over-voltage or transients.
