AVX corporation has expanded its rugged automotive portfolio to include a miniature, dual element AC multilayer varistor designed for use in automotive low power AC circuits. Designated the MAV Series, the AEC Q200-qualified MLV has the ability to clamp large amounts of transients in a bi-directional manner and also provides an EMI/RFI attenuation in the off-state.
The MAV Series provides a 110V peak-to-peak at125kHz capability and an ESD value of 25kV (HBM ESD Level 6). The MAV Series features low loss characteristics, the ability to handle large amounts of transients and a sub-nanosecond turn-on time that clamps energy before peak.Learn more from AVX.
