Surface Mount Varistors
VA Automotive Grade 125°C
Overview
KEMET's VA series of varistors are transient suppressors with temperature independent suppression characteristics enabling protection from −55°C to +125°C.
VA varistors offer excellent transient energy distribution and require significantly less space and pad area than silicon TVS diodes, offering greater circuit board layout flexibility for the designer.
Applications
Typical applications include almost all-electronic systems in an automobile, anti-lock brake system, direct ignition system, airbag control system, wiper motors, and air conditioning systems that are susceptible to damage from destructive voltage transients.
