The BVRA0402-04PFR from Bourns is an Automotive-Qualified Multilayer Varistor that is designed specifically for use in automotive circuits requiring surge protection. It has an AC voltage rating of 4 V (RMS), a DC voltage rating of 5.5 V, and a clamping voltage of 22 V. This AEC-Q200-compliant varistor has a quick response time and high transient current capability. It offers excellent transient energy absorption due to improved energy volume distribution and power dissipation. This RoHS-compliant varistor is available in a surface-mount package that measures 0.96 x 0.48 x 0.5 mm and is ideal for power supplies, entertainment electronics, circuit board level protection against transient events, CAN, LIN, FLEXRAY-based modules, module load dump protection and motor/inductive load transient suppression applications.
