## **Antenna PowerGuard** ## **AVX Low Capacitance Varistors ESD Protection for Circuits Sensitive to Capacitance** ## **GENERAL DESCRIPTION** AVX Antenna PowerGuard products are an ultra low capacitance extension of reliable AntennaGuard range with new voltage, capacitance and energy ratings. Designed for use in RF circuits, sensors, high-speed lines, optic circuits and capacitance sensitive applications. The ability to handle larger transients makes the Antenna PowerGuard series useful in applications where capacitance sensitive circuit needs to be protected against higher energy and AEC-Q200 qualification allows for use in automotive applications. These low capacitance values have low insertion loss, low leakage current and unsurpassed reliability compared to diode options. These advantages combined with size advantages and bi-directional protection make the Antenna PowerGuard the right choice for automotive and general applications, that are sensitive to capacitance. ## **GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS** - Operating Teperature: -55°C to +125°C - Case Size: 0402, 0603 - Working Voltage: 18 - 30Vdc - Capacitance: 1.5 - 3.3pF - Energy: 0.02 - 0.04J - Peak Current: 1 - 3A ## **HOW TO ORDER** ## **FEATURES** - AEC-Q200 Qualified - 25kV ESD rating - Meet 48Vdc Jump Start requirements - Multi-strike capability - Sub 1nS response to ESD strike ## **APPLICATIONS** - RF Circuit - Sensors - Antennas - Data lines - Radars - Bluetooth - Ethernet (IEEE 802.3bw and IEEE 802.3bp) VCAS06AP303R3LAT **VC AS 06 AP 18 1R5 D A T 1 A** ~~T~~ o ~~T~~ T T To TT 7 TOT | | **Varistor Series Case Size Type Working Capacitance Non-Std’ N/A Termination Reel Size Reel Quantity Chip** AS = Automotive 04 = 0402 **Voltage** 1R5 = 1.5pF **Cap Tol** T = Ni/Sn Plated 1 = 7" reel* A = 4K or 10K pcs 06 = 0603 18 = 18Vdc 2R0 = 2.0pF D = ±0.5pF 3 = 13" reel* (i.e.: 1A = 4,000 24 = 24Vdc 3R3 = 3.3pF L = ±1.0pF W = 7" reel** 3A = 10,000 30 = 30Vdc * for 0603 WA = 10,000 ** for 0402 only ## **PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS: mm (inches)** T ~~4—~~ **Size (EIA) Length (L) Width (W) Max Thickness (T) Land Length (t)** t t 1.00±0.10 0.50±0.10 0.60 0.25±0.15 0402 F (0.040±0.004) (0.020±0.004) (0.024) (0.010±0.006) .
