V68ZS10

Varistors, MOVs, and other transient voltage suppressors (TVS) play an important role in providing protection from voltage surges and spikes. The V68ZS10 is one such device, designed to protect circuits from over-voltage and allow them to operate reliably under normal conditions.

The working principle of the V68ZS10 is based on the ability of the device to rapidly alter its resistance in response to a voltage change. A differential circuit such as the one used in the V68ZS10 causes an abrupt change in the resistance of the device which creates a lower impedance path for current to flow when the voltage rises. This lowers the voltage across the sensitive circuit, which effectively reduces the risk of damage.

The V68ZS10 is particularly well suited for the protection of automotive electronics. It is designed to be used as a stand-alone protection device for low voltage circuits, such as mirrors and switches, in automobiles. Its fast acting protection and low leakage current make it especially suitable for controlling excessive voltage transients that can occur during a vehicle start-up or operating conditions. It is also designed to be able to safely handle surge currents of up to 1.2A. The device is efficient and its performance is unaffected by frequency.

The V68ZS10 can also be used to protect electronic circuits from high-voltage transients generated by power supply induction that occur after utility power is restored or power outages. This device is capable of suppressing transient voltages up to 1000V, making it suitable for a number of applications where over-voltage protection is required.

Overall, the V68ZS10 is a robust and reliable transient voltage suppressor designed for the protection of sensitive circuits. Its fast response time and high surge current capabilities make it ideal for use in automotive and other high-voltage applications where reliable protection from voltage transients is required.
