General

Ao littel Metal Oxide Varistors provide reliable and economical protection against high voltage transients and surges which may be produced, for example, by lightning, switching or electrical noise on AC or DC power lines. They have the advantage over transient suppressor diodes in as much as they can absorb much higher transient energies and can suppress positive and negative transients. When a transient occurs, the varistor resistance changes from a very high stand-by value to a very low conducting value. The transient is thus absorbed and clamped to a safe level, protecting sensitive circuit components. Varistors are manufactured from a non-homogeneous material, giving a rectifying action at the contact points of two particles. Many series and parallel connections determine the voltage rating and the current capability of the varistor.

How to Select a ZOV Zno varistor

For most applications,the selection have six processes:

1) Normal operating conditions of varistor

Varistor voltage: the voltage value under 1mA constant current test.

Select the ZnO with higher voltage.

A.C./D.C.: max.rms.or DC voltage.Select the max. Voltage equal or higher than the peak working voltage.

2) The transient energy absorbed by the ZnO

To determine the energy absorbed in the ZnO.,the following equation can apply:

E=K*IP*Vc*T

Where K is constant. K value are 1.0 for a rectangular waveform,1.4 for a 10/1000 us and 8/20 us waveform. And IP is the peak current applied, Vc is the clamping voltage which was current applied. T is the pulse width.

It must note one thing that the rated energy and the energy absorbed in a Varistor may not be identical

It has a situation that a ZnO Varistor with better clamping voltage will absorb less energy.
