multicomp PRO Varistor, Multilayer, 30Vac,voltage Rating Vac 30V Rohs Compliant Multicomp Pro MCVZ1206M380AGT

The Varistor, Multilayer, 30Vac, 0402 from Multicomp Pro is designed for transient voltage surge suppression, providing protection for sensitive electronic components against voltage spikes and ESD (Electrostatic Discharge). It operates within a voltage range of 5.5V to 85V DC and 4V to 60V AC, making it suitable for various applications including I/O protection, Vcc protection, and sensor protection. This component features a bi-directional clamping characteristic and is manufactured using multilayer fabrication technology, which enhances its voltage clamping ability. It has an operating temperature range of -55¬8C to 125¬8C and can withstand non-repetitive surge currents of 20 A to 100 A. The varistor is supplied in a leadless, surface mount form factor, compatible with modern soldering techniques. Engineers should consider this varistor for applications requiring reliable transient voltage protection, particularly in compact electronic designs where space is a constraint.
