Description

Electronic Component Model: 500T012M09B is a SMD multilayer transient voltage suppressor from the standard series. It is a multilayer varistor (MLV) that provides bidirectional protection against surges and offers ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection. This component is designed to withstand ESD levels up to 8 kV contact and 15 kV air discharge, making it suitable for various applications. It has a surge current rating of up to 1200 A and a fast response time of less than 0.5 ns. The 500T012M09B model is RoHS-compatible and does not require derating up to 125°C, for case sizes equal to or larger than 0603. PSpice simulation models are also available for easy integration and analysis.
