The MLA 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 6100-4-2 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.
The wide operating voltage and energy range make the MLA Series suitable for numerous applications on power supply, control and signal lines.
The MLA Series is manufactured from semiconducting ceramics, and is supplied in a leadless, surface mount package. The MLA Series is compatible with modern reflow and wave soldering procedures.
It can operate over a wider temperature range than zener diodes, and has a much smaller footprint than plastic-housed components.
- AEC-Q200 compliant
- RoHS compliant
- Leadless 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206 and 1210 chip sizes
- Multilayer ceramic construction technology
- -55℃ to +125℃ operating temperature range
- Operating voltage range VM(DC)=3.5V to 48V
- No plastic or epoxy packaging assures better than UL94V-0 flammability rating
- Standard low capacitance types available
