TVS - Varistors, MOVs are widely used components to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage spikes or other forms of overvoltage. VC04LC18V500WP is one of these critical components. This product is designed as transient voltage suppressor (TVS) and it has a wide range of applications in various fields.

The VC04LC18V500WP is a leaded device primarily designed to protect sensitive electronics from transient overvoltage. It is available in a DO-214AB package, with a peak pulse power rating of 500W. This product is designed using avalanche breakdown voltage mechanism. It is capable of suppressing transient events until the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage quickly and safely. The maximum breakdown voltage is 18V for this product.

The VC04LC18V500WP is widely used as an essential component in surge protection circuits due to its features including hard to find breakdown voltage, a wide range of application, low cost, low clamping voltage and high energy rating. It is commonly used in applications such as HVAC system, medical device, industrial machine, automotive, mobile device, etc. Additionally, it is specially designed for the purpose of load dampening in order to prevent the power supply from voltage surges or short-term overvoltage.

The working principle of the VC04LC18V500WP is based on avalanche breakdown voltage. In this mechanism, the device is designed with a zener diode structure. When the voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage, it will trigger the avalanche breakdown voltage mechanism and quickly reduce the voltage to safe level. The current is conducted through the diode bridge and dissipated as heat.

The VC04LC18V500WP provides reliable overvoltage protection and is suitable for variety of applications. Its power rating also ensures that it can be used in high current applications. Moreover, this product is reliable and cost effective. Therefore, it has become a very popular choice for industrial, military and telecom applications.
