TVS (transient voltage suppressors) are components designed to protect sensitive electronics from damage caused by surges of current or voltage, such as those from lightning strikes and electromagnetic radiation. There are several types of these components, including varistors, MOVs (metal oxide varistors) and Gas Plasma Arresters.The V385LC20CP belongs to the MOV family of transient voltage suppressors. It has a rated working voltage of 385Vdc, and a load current rating of 20A. The V385LC20CP is designed to suppress transients that exceed its rated working voltage, the maximum clamping voltage being 475V. This component can be used in a variety of applications, such as automobiles, electronic equipment, and other applications requiring protection from high voltage transients.

The working principle behind the V385LC20CP MOV can be explained as follows. When an external transient voltage rise above the rated working voltage of the MOV, the internal oxide material of the MOV starts to break down, thus causing a very large amount of current to flow through the device. This current surge quickly pulls down the voltage across the MOV to the maximum clamping voltage of the MOV, thus protecting the connected load from damage.

The primary benefits of using MOVs as transient voltage suppressors are their high surge capability, fast response time and low parasitic capacitance. Additionally, they are much less susceptible to thermally induced failure than gas-discharge arresters or other types of transient voltage suppressors.

In summary, the V385LC20CP MOV is a rugged and reliable transient voltage suppressor suitable for a variety of applications where protection from high voltage transients is required. It offers fast response time, high surge capability and low parasitic capacitance, making it an ideal choice for many applications. The working principle behind the V385LC20CP is also simple and straightforward, helping to ensure that it functions reliably in order to protect connected loads from damage caused by voltage transients.
