Description
●The MLA Series (also known as "ML" series) family of transient voltage surge suppression devices is based on the Littelfuse Multilayer fabrication technology. These components are designed to suppress a variety of transient events, including those specified in IEC 61000-4-2 or other standards used for Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC). The MLA Series is typically applied to protect integrated circuits and other components at the circuit board level.
●Features
●• RoHS compliant
●• Leadless 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206 and 1210 chip sizes
●• Multilayer ceramic construction technology
●• -55°C to +125°C operating temp. range
●• Operating voltage range VM(DC) = 5.5V to 120V
●• Rated for surge current (8 x 20μs)
●• Rated for energy (10 x 1000μs)
●• Inherent bi-directional clamping
●• Standard low capacitance types available
●Applications
●• Suppression of inductive switching or other transient events such as EFT and surge voltage at
●the circuit board level
●• ESD protection for IEC 61000-4-2, MIL-STD-883c method 3015.7, and other industry specifications (see also the MLE or MLN Series)
●• Provides on-board transient voltage protection for ICS and transistors
●• Used to help achieve electromagnetic compliance of end products
●• Replace larger surface mount TVS Zeners in many applications
