MLA Automotive Varistor Series **RoH** ~~**S Description**~~ The MLA Automotive Series of transient voltage surge suppression devices is based on the Littelfuse Multilayer a fabrication technology. These components are designed to suppress a variety of transient events, including those specified in IEC 61000-4-2 or other standards used for Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC). The MLA Automotive Series is typically applied to protect integrated circuits and ~~Nn~~ other components at the circuit board level. The wide operating voltage and energy range make the MLA Automotive Series suitable for numerous applications « a 5 on power supply, control and signal lines. The MLA Automotive Series is manufactured from ~~**Size Table** LE~~ 

The wide operating voltage and energy range make the MLA Automotive Series suitable for numerous applications on power supply, control and signal lines.

## ~~**Peak Current and Energy Derating Curve**~~ 

## ~~**Peak Pulse Current Test  Waveform for Clamping Voltage**~~ 

When transients occur in rapid succession, the average power dissipation is the energy (watt-seconds) per pulse times the number of pulses per second. The power so developed must be within the specifications shown on the Device Ratings and Specifications Table for the specific device. For applications exceeding 125°C ambient temperature, the peak surge current and energy ratings must be derated as shown below.

## ~~**Device Characteristics**~~ 

At low current levels, the V-I curve of the multilayer transient voltage suppressor approaches a linear (ohmic) relationship and shows a temperature dependent effect. At or below the maximum working voltage, the suppressor is in a high resistance modex (approaching 10[6] Ω at its maximum rated working voltage). Leakage currents at maximum rated voltage are below 100 _µ_ A, typically 25 _µ_ A.

## ~~**Speed of Response**~~ 

The Multilayer Suppressor is a leadless device. Its response time is not limited by the parasitic lead inductances found in other surface mount packages. The response time of the ZNO dielectric material is less than 1ns and the MLA Automotive Series can clamp very fast dV/dT events such as ESD. Additionally, in "real world" applications, the associated circuit wiring is often the greatest factor effecting speed of response. Therefore, transient suppressor placement within a circuit can be considered important in certain instances.

## ~~**Energy Absorption/Peak Current Capability**~~ 

Energy dissipated within the MLA Automotive Series is calculated by multiplying the clamping voltage, transient current and transient duration. An important advantage of the multilayer is its interdigitated electrode construction within the mass of dielectric material. This results in excellent current distribution and the peak temperature per energy absorbed is very low. The matrix of semiconducting grains combine to absorb and distribute transient energy (heat) (see Speed of Response). This dramatically reduces peak temperature; thermal stresses and enhances device reliability. 

As a measure of the device capability in energy and peak current handling, the V26MLA1206 part was tested with multiple pulses at its peak current rating (150A, 8/20 _µ_ s). At the end of the test,10,000 pulses later, the device voltage characteristics are still well within specification.

## ~~**Lead (Pb) Soldering Recommendations**~~ 

The principal techniques used for the soldering of components in surface mount technology are IR Re-flow and Wave soldering. Typical profiles are shown on the right. 

The recommended solder for the MLA Automotive Series suppressor is a 62/36/2 (Sn/Pb/Ag), 60/40 (Sn/Pb) or 63/37 (Sn/Pb). Littelfuse also recommends an RMA solder flux. 

Wave soldering is the most strenuous of the processes. To avoid the possibility of generating stresses due to thermal shock, a preheat stage in the soldering process is recommended, and the peak temperature of the solder process should be rigidly controlled. 

When using a reflow process, care should be taken to ensure that the MLA Automotive Series chip is not subjected to a thermal gradient steeper than 4 degrees per second; the ideal gradient being 2 degrees per second. During the soldering process, preheating to within 100 degrees of the solder's peak temperature is essential to minimize thermal shock. 

Once the soldering process has been completed, it is still necessary to ensure that any further thermal shocks are avoided. One possible cause of thermal shock is hot printed circuit boards being removed from the solder process and subjected to cleaning solvents at room temperature. The boards must be allowed to cool gradually to less than 50º C before cleaning.

## ~~**Lead–free (Pb-free) Soldering Recommendations**~~ 

Littelfuse offers the Nickel Barrier Termination option (see "N" suffix in Part Numbering System for ordering) for the optimum Lead–free solder performance, consisting of a Matte Tin outer surface plated on Nickel underlayer, plated on Silver base metal. 

The preferred solder is 96.5/3.0/0.5 (SnAgCu) with an RMA flux, but there is a wide selection of pastes and fluxes available with which the Nickel Barrier parts should be compatible. 

The reflow profile must be constrained by the maximums in the Lead–free Reflow Profile. For Lead–free wave soldering, the Wave Solder Profile still applies. 

Note: the Lead–free paste, flux and profile were used for evaluation purposes by Littelfuse, based upon industry standards and practices. There are multiple choices of all three available, it is advised that the customer explores the optimum combination for their process as processes vary considerably from site to site.
