TDK Corporation presents the new high-surge series of EPCOS multilayer varistors. These are characterized by their high surge current capability, ranging from one surge of up to 5000 A to ten surges of up to 3500 A, with a pulse of 8/20 µs and an operating voltage of up to 65 V DC. In addition, the new SMD components are very compact: They are available in case sizes EIA1210 through EIA2220 and require significantly less space than wired types or semiconductor-based solutions, while offering the same performance and reliability.
