“AVX’s automotive product offering features the smallest products available on the market combined with the highest temperature ratings in the industry. The Radial Leaded High- Temperature Automotive TransGuard Series features very compact height and thickness specifications, providing a space-saving design compared to leaded disc varistors,” said Sonja Brown, global circuit protection product manager at AVX.
Providing high energy/current handling capability and 25kV ESD rating, the RoHScompliant Radial Leaded High Temperature Automotive TransGuard’s robust construction make it ideal for down-hole drilling and other harsh environment applications as well.
The Radial Leaded High Temperature Automotive TransGuard is the first release in a complete line of radial leaded varistor devices that will be released throughout the next 12 months. The series will ultimately include radial leaded varistors for industrial applications, automotive nonharsh environ applications, and extended voltage ratings for use in heavy equipment and commercial vehicle applications.
