A transient voltage suppressor (TVS) is an electrical component used to protect circuits against electrical transients caused by electrostatic discharge, inductive switching, and lightning. The V18ZC2PX2855 is a type of TVS that plays an important role in protecting sensitive electronics from high over-voltages by clamping voltage transients above its clamping voltage.

The V18ZC2PX2855 belongs to the MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) family of TVS devices. It is designed to protect sensitive circuits from electrical over-voltage transients by clamping the voltage to a safe level. The V18ZC2PX2855 features a clamping voltage of 27 V and surge current capability of up to 8.2 kA (8/20 μs). This makes it well suited for protecting against lightning-induced surges as well as ESD or electrical inductive switching transients.

The V18ZC2PX2855 has a wide variety of applications, including power supplies, automotive and computer components. It has a low profile and wide clamping range making it ideal for use in consumer electronics and other space-constrained applications. Additionally, the V18ZC2PX2855 offers a low incremental surge resistance when compared to other MOVs, which helps to reduce device power dissipation and prevents them from overheating or burning out.

The V18ZC2PX2855 works by redirecting a surge of electrical energy away from sensitive circuits to ground. When an over-voltage transient (such as a lightning strike or ESD discharge) is experienced by the device, the MOV’s special ceramic layer starts to conduct current, directing it away from the sensitive components and into the ground. Due to this "clamping" action, the voltage seen by the sensitive components is limited and kept within a safe voltage level.

In summary, the V18ZC2PX2855 is a type of MOV designed to protect sensitive electrical components from high transient over-voltages by clamping the voltage to a safe level. It has a wide range of applications, a low profile and wide clamping range, and offers a low incremental surge resistance. It operates by redirecting a surge of electrical energy away from sensitive circuits and to ground.
