GENERAL DESCRIPTION

AVX Miniature AC Varistors are designed for use in low power

AC circuit protection. MAV series devices are an ideal

solution to transient suppression in LC resonant circuits

intended for signal & power transfer. The AVX part provides

low loss in the resonant circuit yet is able to clamp large

amounts of transients in a bi-directional manner.

The ability to handle large transients makes the MAV series

useful in low power AC circuit protection and the AEC Q200

qualification allows for use in automotive applications.
