VE24M00231K

The VE24M00231K is a form of TVS (transient voltage suppressor) which is used to protect sensitive devices that supply or receive electric power. It is a varistor which is typically used to protect sensitive equipment such as computers, mobile devices, and other sensitive electronic components from momentary power fluctuations or surges, particularly from lightning.

A varistor is a voltage dependent resistor (VDR) that is designed to absorb electrostatic or electrical energy when a certain level is reached. This kind of protection works by allowing current to flow in only one direction, which in the case of the VE24M00231K is from the ground, through the capacitors, and eventually back into the ground. This means that when the voltage rises above the rated level, it will trigger the device and cause it to shut off the power, protecting any connected devices from spikes in the line.

The VE24M00231K is a non-polarized device, meaning that it does not require any sort of polarity for it to function correctly. This makes it ideal for circuits that may be subject to reverse polarity, which can be a common problem in some types of mobile or hand-held devices.

The main working principle behind the VE24M00231K is that it is designed to act like a fuse, allowing current to flow in one direction if more than the rated level of voltage is passed through it. When the device senses that the voltage is passing through it at a higher level than the rated level, it will activate and shutoff the power, thus protecting any connected devices from any sudden spikes.

The VE24M00231K also features a low breakdown voltage (VDBR) of 24V, so it is well within range for most applications. This makes it a great choice for any device that needs protection from sudden power surges or spikes.

The VE24M00231K is an excellent choice for protecting a variety of sensitive electronic devices. It is designed to provide maximum protection from momentary power fluctuations or surges, and works to shut off the power when the voltage rises above the rated level. This device is non-polarized, meaning it can handle a range of reverse polarities, and has a relatively low breakdown voltage, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. As such, the VE24M00231K is an ideal choice for anyone who needs reliable protection for their sensitive equipment.
