Bourns is pleased to announce the release of the BVRA1210 and BVRA1812 Series Automotive Grade MLV Multilayered Varistors.
The low voltage BVRA Series Varistors are designed specifically for use in automotive circuits requiring surge protection.
They offer excellent transient energy absorption due to improved energy volume distribution and power dissipation.
These varistors are available with working voltages from 11 V to 100 VDC in 1210 and 1812 SMD packages. These models are typically applied to protect integrated circuits and other components at the circuit board level.
