The MAV Series provides a 110V peak-to-peak at125kHz capability and an ESD value of 25kV (HBM ESD Level 6). Featuring low loss characterisitcs, the ability to handle large amounts of transients, and a sub-nanosecond turn-on time that clamps energy before peak, all in an ultra-compact package, the MAV Series is ideal for use in automotive applications including AC circuits, LC resonant circuits, transformer secondaries, and GFI modules.
“The MAV Series MLV is a cost-effective solution that meets our customers’ growing demands for a miniature, highly-reliable circuit protection device with a reduced board footprint and the ability to provide superior protection versus other technologies,” stated Sonja Brown, Global Product Manager for circuit protection products.
In addition to developing a highly efficient MLV, AVX also managed to significantly reduce the MAV Series’ footprint, thus meeting space and weight constraints typical of automotive and harsh environment applications. Available in 0603 single-element and 0405 dual-element packages, the RoHS compliant product is AEC Q200 qualified with PPAP documentation available upon request.
Typical pricing ranges from $0.04 – $0.12 for standard commercial product depending on volume and packaging.
