TVS - Varistors, MOVs

Varistor, also called Voltage-Dependent Resistor (VDR) or Varistor, is one of the most common components used in the field of electrical engineering. It has a non-linear electrical characteristics, which means that its resistance varies with applied voltage. Varistor, widely used in protection circuits, is usually made of metal oxide compound and is an excellent choice for suppressing transients, surges and overvoltages. Varistors, compared to traditional resistors, are more cost-effective.

Metal-oxide varistor (MOV) is one of the components of Varistor. MOVs is achieved by coating the surface of semiconductor ceramic body various thicknesses of metal oxide and plated in several layers, to show a nonlinear, symmetrical I-V characteristics similar with that of Varistor. MOVs are usually available in different sizes and voltage rating ranging from 14V to 600V.

VJ13PC0480KBA is an MOV with an excellent electrical performance. It is mainly used for transient suppression, clamping applications or absorbation of overvoltages. It has a voltage rating of 18V-38V and is RoHS compliant. Its terminal voltage of 42 volts maximum and clamping voltage of 90 volts maximum makes it a perfect fit in any application where overvoltage protection is required.

VJ13PC0480KBA works by conducting the extra current away from sensitive devices to ground when an overvoltage occurs. The energy consuming process is usually called clamping which is dependent on the voltage-dependent electrical properties of VJ13PC0480KBA. It is able to absorb large amounts of energy and its fast response time and low clamping voltage make it suitable for applications dealing with short and long duration spikes.

VJ13PC0480KBA is widely employed in many technologies and applications. It is mainly used to safeguard against electrical surges in basic consumer electronics, e.g. audio/video devices, power supplies, printers, and computing peripherals. In telecommunications, it can protect telecom relays, signal distribution systems, modems, LAN adapters, and radio communication systems. It can also be used in automotive, industrial and medical sectors, especially for applications that require reliable protection against electrical transients.

In conclusion, VJ13PC0480KBA is a reliable metal-oxide varistor specifically designed for transient protection. Its low voltage rating, fast response time and low clamping voltage make it an ideal choice for applications that require protection against electrical surges and spikes. It is widely used in many technology and applications, ranging from consumer electronics to telecommunications, automotive, industrial and medical domains.
