The Amotech AVLC5S01033 Multilayer Chip Varistor shows a non-linear V-I behavior similar to Si semiconductor. It has high resistance in normal situation but becomes drastically conducting at critical overvoltage level. Varistor normally acts as a nonconductor, but in case overvoltage is loaded, it becomes conductor that diverts current away from circuits to ground protecting equipments.
The Amotech AVLC5S01033 Multilayer Chip Varistor Features：
1、Multilayer laminated structure
2、Faster response time to outer overvoltage than diode
3、High reliability over multi surge
4、Forward & reverse(+, -) direction property
5、Low leakage current and inductance
6、Easy to control electric capacity
7、Excellent reliability against ESD(ElectroStatic Discharge)
