V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO

The TVS - Varistors, MOVs category includes several components used for protection of electrical systems, such as the V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO. This device is a multi-layered varistor (MLV) designed for protecting circuits from high voltage transients. It is suitable for surface mounting and can be used in a variety of applications including automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics.

The V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO\'s purpose is to divert high-energy surges at specified levels away from sensitive components and reduce their risks of being damaged. This device is able to achieve this task due to its metal oxide varistor design, which consists of two layers of zinc oxide pellets and an electrode layer between. The metal oxide varistors, or MOVs, are semiconductor devices that have two main operation states: low impedance state for absorbing and suppressing surge voltages and high impedance state for conduction under normal operating conditions.

The V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO multilayer varistor is specifically designed for automotive applications due to its robust design which meets AEC-Q200 requirements. It operates at a maximum voltage of 350 V and can handle up to 10 A peak current. The device is also RoHS compliant and uses halogen-free materials. The maximum clamping voltage is 8 V and the maximum insulation resistance is 1000 MΩ at 500 VDC.

In terms of working principle, the V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO uses a metal oxide semiconductor layer sandwiched between two ceramic plates, with contact leads penetrating both plates. The two ceramic plates consist of high-voltage resistant Zinc Oxide pellets which act as resistors and suppress high-energy transients. When a surge or ESD enters the system, the MOV layer reduces the voltage and absorbs the energy. This process prevents any damages to sensitive components and saves them from being harmed.

The V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO Multi-Layer Varistor is a versatile device that offers protection for a variety of electrical systems, particularly in automotive applications. Its robust design meets the AEC-Q200 requirements and it can handle up to 10 A peak current. The device is also RoHS compliant and uses halogen-free materials. The working principle is based on a metal oxide semiconductor layer thatAbsorbs energy during transients and reduces the voltage, protecting the system from being damaged.

In conclusion, the V3.5MLA0603NHAUTO is an ideal choice for automotive protection due to its reliable performance and compliance with AEC-Q200 requirements. The device is also RoHS compliant and uses halogen-free materials, which makes it an ideal choice for protecting circuits from high voltage transients.
