KYOCERA AVX High Temperature 150°C (VTA3) / 175°C (VTA7) Multi-Layer Varistors are designed for under hood and other high temperature automotive or industrial applications. Parts are AEC-Q200 qualified. They offer bi-directional overvoltage protection as well as EMI/RFI attenuation in a single SMT package. This allows designers the ability to combine the circuit protection and EMI/RFI attenuation function into a single highly reliable device. Products have been tested, qualified, and specified to 150°C (VTA3) / 175°C (VTA7) and they do not require any derating over specified operating temperature range.

Available in 0603 – 1210 case size with 14 – 31Vdc working voltage, energy rating 0.1 – 1.7J, peak current 30 – 500A and capacitance 90 – 5000pF. Operating temperature range is -55°C to +150°C (VTA3) / +175°C (VTA7) with no derating. Parts offer excellent lead free solderability thanks to Ni Barrier/100% Sn termination.
