TVS - Varistors, MOVs

The V68ZC3PX2855 is a voltage-dependent resistor designed for overvoltage protection. This type of device, commonly known as a varistor, works to protect electronic devices from high-voltage electric surges or spikes that can damage sensitive circuitry. Unlike conventional resistors which only vary in resistance across a small range, a varistor or transient voltage suppressor (TVS) increases its resistance with increasing voltage.In an electronic circuit, a varistor is used to absorb or redirect high-voltage shocks away from critical components. The goal of a varistor is to limit excess voltage from reaching other vital components in the circuit, such as microprocessors or delicate components such as capacitors and diodes. Varistors can also be used to clamp a voltage signal to prevent it from exceeding expected levels.The V68ZC3PX2855 is a multilayer varistor (MLV) designed to be used in a variety of applications and environments. MLV varistors have several benefits over MOVs. For one, they are much smaller and lighter than MOVs, making them ideal for use in limited spaces and applications where size and weight are a factor. They are also able to absorb more energy than MOVs, enabling them to handle higher voltages. MLV varistors are also designed to be as non-polarized as possible, meaning they can operate without needing to be oriented in a specific direction.The V68ZC3PX2855 is designed to handle up to 18A of current and 1000V of voltage in its unipolar form. The peak current rating of this device is 1200A and the peak power rating is 157W. This varistor is designed to operate within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, with a typical capacitance value of 151pF.The main purpose of the V68ZC3PX2855 is to protect sensitive components from electrical surges and spikes in the circuit. Once the voltage of a surge exceeds the varistor’s breakdown voltage, it will effectively short-circuit the voltage. As the surge reduces in intensity, the varistor’s resistance then gradually returns to normal, allowing the circuit to resume its normal operation.Aside from overvoltage protection, the V68ZC3PX2855 is also used for suppressing switch transients, clamping of transient signals, and protection of AC/DC circuits. This type of varistor can also be used in communications and data lines for protecting them from interference caused by electrical noise in the environment.The V68ZC3PX2855 is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and cost-effective overvoltage protection solution. Its multilayer design and compact size make it very versatile in a wide variety of applications. With its great performance and long operational life, this device can be a beneficial addition to any circuit that requires overvoltage protection.
