Varistor

Multilayer varistors are zinc oxide (ZnO) based ceramic semiconductor devices
with non-linear voltage-current characteristics (bi-directional) similar to
back- to-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. AMPFORT components help achieve both functions with single
component.
