Datasheet
## **TransGuard®** ## **AVX Multilayer Ceramic Transient Voltage Suppressors** ## **GENERAL DESCRIPTION** TransGuard[®] multilayer varistors are zinc oxide (ZnO) based ceramic semiconductor devices with non-linear voltage-current characteristics (bi-directional) similar to backto-back zener diodes. They have the added advantage of greater current and energy handling capabilities as well as EMI/RFI attenuation. The increasing use of electronics technologies in all areas require reliable protection against transient voltages that could damage the electronics circuitry as well as EMI/RFI attenuation to prevent signal distortion and to meet regulatory requirements. AVX TransGuard components help achieve both functions with single component. ## **GENERAL** ## **CHARACTERISTICS** - Operating Temperature: - -55°C to +125°C - Working Voltage: 3.3 - 85Vdc - Case Size: 0402 - 1812 - Energy: 0.05 - 4.2J - Peak Current: 20 - 2000A ## **FEATURES** - Bi-Directional protection - Very fast response to ESD strikes - Multi-strike capability - High Reliability - EMI/RFI Filtering - Wide range of components ## **APPLICATIONS** - IC Protection - Micro Controllers - Relays - I/O Ports - Keyboard Protection - Portable devices - Industrial Controllers - Automation - Smart Grid - Telecom - LED Lights - Cameras - Base Stations - Motion detector - Alarms - and more ##

**TransGuard®** ## **AVX Multilayer Ceramic Transient Voltage Suppressors** ## **TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CURVES (0402 CHIP SIZE)** ## **VOLTAGE/CURRENT CHARACTERISTICS** Multilayer construction and improved grain structure result in excellent transient clamping characteristics up to 20 amps peak current, while maintaining very low leakage currents under DC operating conditions. The VI curves below show the voltage/current characteristics for the 5.6V, 9V, 14V, 18V and low capacitance StaticGuard parts with currents ranging from parts of a micro amp to tens of amps. ## **PULSE DEGRADATION** Traditionally varistors have suffered degradation of electrical performance with repeated high current pulses resulting in decreased breakdown voltage and increased leakage current. It has been suggested that irregular intergranular boundaries and bulk material result in restricted current paths and other non-Schottky barrier paralleled conduction paths in the ceramic. Repeated pulsing of TransGuard[®] transient voltage suppressors with 150Amp peak 8 x 20μS waveforms shows negligible degradation in breakdown voltage and minimal increases in leakage current. **==> picture [239 x 149] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 100<br>VC04LC18V500<br>VC040218X400<br>80 VC040214X300<br>VC040209X200<br>VC040205X150<br>60<br>40<br>20<br>0<br>10 [-9] 10 [-7] 10 [-5] 10 [-3] 10 [-1] 10 10 [3] 10 [5]<br>Current (A)<br>Voltage (V)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **PEAK POWER VS PULSE DURATION** **==> picture [189 x 270] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 1300<br>1200<br>1100<br>VC040218X400<br>1000<br>VC040214X300<br>900 VC040209X200<br>VC04LC18V500<br>800 VC040205X150<br>700<br>600<br>500<br>400<br>300<br>200<br>100<br>0<br>10 100 1000<br>IMPULSE DURATION (μS)<br>PEAK POWER (W)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **ESD TEST OF 0402 PARTS** **==> picture [191 x 201] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 35<br>VC04LC18V500<br>30<br>25 VC040218X400<br>20<br>VC040214X300<br>15<br>VC040209X200<br>10<br>VC040205X150<br>5<br>10 100 1000 10000<br>8kV ESD STRIKES<br>BREAKDOWN VOLTAGE (Vb)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **INSERTION LOSS CHARACTERISTICS** **==> picture [233 x 176] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 0<br>-5<br>-10<br>VC04LC18V<br>VC040218X<br>-15<br>VC040214X<br>VC040209X<br>VC040205X<br>-20<br>-25<br>0.01 0.1 1 10<br>Frequency (GHz)<br>dB<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> 9 080216 ## **TransGuard®** ## **AVX Multilayer Ceramic Transient Voltage Suppressors** ## **TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CURVES (0603, 0805, 1206 & 1210 CHIP SIZES)** ## **VOLTAGE/CURRENT CHARACTERISTICS** Multilayer construction and improved grain structure result in excellent transient clamping characteristics up to 500 amps peak current, depending on case size and energy rating, while maintaining very low leakage currents under DC operating conditions.

The plots of typical breakdown voltage vs number of 150A pulses are shown below. **==> picture [172 x 145] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Repetitive Peak Current Strikes<br>TransGuard [®] 1206 0.4J Product<br>10%<br>VC120618D400<br>8%<br>VC120626D580<br>6%<br>VC120614D300<br>4%<br>VC120605D150<br>2%<br>0%<br>0 100 200 300 400 500 600<br>Number of Strikes<br>Figure 1<br>Change in Breakdown Voltage (%)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **Repetitive Peak Current Strikes TransGuard[®] 0805 0.1J and 0.3J Products** **==> picture [175 x 127] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 15%<br>10%<br>VC080518A400<br>VC080518C400<br>5%<br>0%<br>0 100 200 300 400 500 600<br>Number of Strikes<br>Figure 2<br>Change in Breakdown Voltage (%)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **==> picture [177 x 307] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Repetitive Peak Current Strikes<br>TransGuard [®] 1210 1.5J Product<br>10%<br>8%<br>6%<br>VC121018J390<br>4%<br>2%<br>0%<br>0 100 200 300 400 500 600<br>Number of Strikes<br>Figure 3<br>Repetitive Peak Current Strikes<br>StaticGuard 0805 0.1J Product<br>30%<br>25%<br>20%<br>15%<br>10%<br>VC08LC18A500<br>5%<br>0%<br>0 100 200 300 400 500 600<br>Number of Strikes<br>Figure 4<br>Change in Breakdown Voltage (%)<br>Change in Breakdown Voltage (%)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **CAPACITANCE/FREQUENCY CHARACTERISTICS** **==> picture [524 x 134] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> TransGuard [®] Capacitance vs Frequency 0603 TransGuard [®] Capacitance vs Frequency 0805 TransGuard [®] Capacitance vs Frequency 1206<br>100 100 100<br>80 80 80<br>VC080505C150<br>60 60 60<br>VC120614D300<br>40 40 40<br>20 20 20<br>VC060305A150 VC080518C400 VC120648D101<br>0 VC06LC18X500 0 0<br>VC060326A580 VC080514A300 VC12LC18A500<br>0 20 40 60 80 100 0 20 40 60 80 100 0 20 40 60 80 100<br>Frequency (MHz) Frequency (MHz) Frequency (MHz)<br>Capacitance Change (%) Capacitance Change (%) Capacitance Change (%)<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> 13 080216

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 410,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
