The AV 14 K 1103 050 from Bourns is an Automotive Qualified Multilayer Varistor that has been designed to protect electronic systems in an automobile against high voltage surges. It has an AC voltage rating of 14 V, a DC voltage rating of 16 V, and a clamping voltage of 40 V. This AEC-Q200-qualified varistor offers excellent transient energy absorption due to improved energy volume distribution and power dissipation. It also exhibits independent suppression characteristics, enabling stable protection over a wide operating temperature range from -55°C to +125°C. This RoHS-compliant varistor is available in a through-hole package that measures 11.0 x 6.5 mm.
