Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs) Surface Mount Varistors > CH Series RoHS CH Varistor Series Description CH Series transient surge suppressors are small, metal-oxide varistors (MOVs) manufactured in leadless chip form. They are intended for use in a variety of applications from low voltage DC to off-line board-level protection. These devices, which have significantly lower profiles than traditional radial lead varistors, permit designers to reduce the size and weight and increase the reliability of their equipment designs. CH Series varistors are available in a voltage range from 14V to 275V (V ), and energy ratings up to 8J. M(AC)RMS See the Littelfuse Multilayer Suppressor Series also.

Current, Energy and Power Derating Curve Continuous power dissipation capability is not an applicable design requirement for a suppressor, unless transients 100 occur in rapid succession. Under this condition, the 90 average power dissipation required is simply the energy 80 (watt-seconds) per pulse times the number of pulses 70 per second. The power so developed must be within 60 the specifications shown on the Device Ratings and 50 40 Specifications Table for the specific device. Furthermore, the operating values need to be derated at high tempera 30 20 tures as shown in this diagram. Because varistors can only 10 dissipate a relatively small amount of average power they 0 are, therefore, not suitable for repetitive applications that -55 50 60 70 80 90 100110 120130 140150 involve substantial amounts of average power dissipation. o AMBIENT TEMPERATURE ( C) Figure 1 FIGURE 1.
