ZV/ZVY Series
Low Voltage SMD Varistors
Description:
Stackpole Electronics, Inc.
Resistive Product Solutions
The ZV Series of low voltage varistors is designed to protect sensitive electronics devices
against high voltage surges in the low voltage region. They offer excellent transient
energy absorption due to improved energy volume distribution and power dissipation.
Low voltage varistors cover wide DC operating voltage range from 3V to 170V. The ZVY
Series is the same except for higher operating temperatures up to 150ºC.
ZV varistors are typically applied to protect components at the circuit board level.

“B” termination type provides nickel barrier terminations
AC operating voltage (Vrms) from 2V to 130V
DC operating voltage (Vdc) from 3V to 170V
No plastic coating guarantees better flammability rating
Bi-directional, low clamping voltages
Broad range of current and energy handling capabilities
+125ºC continuous operating temperature, +150ºC for ZVY
Dimensional and weight savings on PC board
AgPd end terminations also available
ZVY high temperature product will have performance
characteristics different from the ZV.
Contact Factory for specific details.
Applications:
•
ESD protection for components sensitive to IEC 1000-4-2,
MIL-STD 883C Method 3015.7 and other industry specifications
•
Suppression of inductive switching or other low to medium
transient events at the circuit board level
•
Provides on-board transient voltage protection of ICs and
transistors
•
Replace larger surface mount TVS Zeners in many applications
•
Used to help achieve electromagnetic compliance of end products
•
6 model sizes available 0603, 0805, 1206, 1210, 1812 and 2220
