●ML Varistor Series
●The ML Series family of Transient Voltage Surge Suppression devices is based on the Littelfuse Multilayer fabrication technology. These components are designed to suppress a variety of transient events, including those specified in IEC 61000-4-2 or other standards used for Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC). The ML Series is typically applied to protect integrated circuits and other components at the circuit board level.
●The wide operating voltage and energy range make the ML Series suitable for numerous applications on power supply, control and signal lines.
●The ML Series is manufactured from semiconducting ceramics, and is supplied in a leadless, surface mount package. The ML Series is compatible with modern reflow and wave soldering procedures.
●It can operate over a wider temperature range than zener diodes, and has a much smaller footprint than plastic-housed components.
●Littelfuse Inc. manufactures other Multilayer Series products. See the MLE Series data sheet for ESD applications, MHS Series data sheet for high-speed ESD applications, the MLN for multiline protection and the AUML Series for automotive applications.
