The DV 11 K 3225 from Bourns is a Metal Oxide Varistor that is designed to protect electronic equipment against high voltage surges in the medium voltage region. It has an AC voltage rating of 11 V and a DC voltage rating of 14 V. This varistor has a clamping voltage of 36 V. It has a leadless chip design that ensures zero inductance to facilitate extremely fast response time to transient surges. This metal-oxide varistor (MOV) exhibits excellent transient energy absorption due to improved energy-volume distribution and power dissipation. It has a low profile and operates over a temperature from -40° C to +125°C. This RoHS-compliant MOV varistor is available in a surface-mount package that measures 9.8 x 18.2 mm and is ideal for circuit protection applications.
