What are multilayer varistors (MLVs)?
I
I
MLVs are multilayer semiconductor ceramic components for ESD protection of safety-
relevant data lines and bus systems and for high-energy transient protection (e.g. load
dump and jump start) in automotive electronic devices.
MLVs can replace semiconductor diodes.
