Bourns' new low voltage varistors feature excellent transient energy absorption due to their excellent energy volume distribution and power dissipation design.

Riverside, Calif.: October 17, 2024 - Bourns, a leading manufacturer of electronic components for power, protection and sensing solutions, introduces its AEC-Q200 Automotive Multilayer Varistor Model BVRA series. These new low-voltage varistors provide superior transient energy absorption through a design that improves energy volume distribution and power dissipation. Designed specifically for use in automotive circuits requiring surge protection, the new series can also be applied to protect other integrated circuits and components such as power supplies, entertainment electronics, CAN, LIN, and FLEXRAY based modules.

Available with operating voltages from 5.5 to 85VDC, the Model BVRA series offers a fast response time of less than 0.5ns to ensure rapid energy transfer during transient events. Offered in compact 0402, 0603, 0805 and 1206 SMD packages, Bourns' new varistors feature a dielectric overcoat designed to help improve efficiency and streamline integration. Additionally, these models are IEC 61000-4-5 compliant and provide a stable leakage current for a highly reliable and consistent overvoltage protection solution.

The Bourns® Model BVRA AEC-Q200 automotive grade multilayer varistor series is RoHS* compliant and lead-free.
