ZVX Series — Low Energy, Low Capacitance SMD Varistors
Description
The ZVX Series are low-energy (0.1 joules) varistor chips, designed specifically for the
protection of I/O line drivers and other sensitive semiconductor gates from the damaging
effects of high voltage, low-energy transients such as ESD events. Unlike other competitive
low-energy varistors, the ZVX Series offers all the protection features of standard varistor
chips, and exceptionally low values of capacitance. In these applications, as the frequency of
data transfer increases, lower capacitance is required to eliminate possible skewing of the
data signals due to capacitive loading.
In most cases, the 1KHz capacitance values of the ZVX Series are less than one half that of
the competition. Further, this series is offered in 0603, 0805 and 1206 sizes, with an
expanded range of voltages from 3V to 38Vdc. The ZVX series offers a circuit design
engineer the greatest range of high-frequency, low-energy SMD varistor chips available in the
marketplace today.
Features
• AC operating voltage (Vrms) from 2V to 30V
• DC operating voltage (Vdc) from 3V to 38V
• Bi-directional, low clamping voltages
• Exceptionally low capacitance ratings
• 1 model sizes available 1206
• +125°C continuous operating temperature
• Dimensional and weight savings on PC board
• AgPd end terminations
• Non-coated chips guarantee excellent flammability rating
Applications
• ESD protection for components sensitive to IEC 1000-4-2,
MIL-STD 883C Method 3015.7 and other industry specifications
• Excellent for I/O line protection, operating at high-speed data
transfer rates, due to very low capacitance values
• Replaces larger surface mount TVS diodes in many
applications
