Automotive Series
Multilayer Varistors for Automotive Applications
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TransGuard Automotive Series are zinc oxide (ZnO) based ceramic semicon-
ductor devices with non-linear, bi-directional voltage-current characteristics.
They have the advantage of offering bi-directional overvoltage protection as well as
EMI/RFI attenuation in a single SMT package. The Automotive Series high current
and high energy handling capability make them well suited for protection against
automotive related transients.
