of zeroes that follow, i.e. 120 is 12 pF
8. Packaging Code
B – Bulk
R – Tape & Reel
The MLV Series, designed for surface mount
applications, are small multilayer varistors. They
are available in standard EIA sizes of 0402, 0603,
0805, 1206, 1210, 1812 and 2220 packages. The MLV
Series have 5 different sub-series:
EV Series - This is our lowest capacitance MLV
series. Typically these are used in ESD and data line
protection.
SV Series – This is our standard MLV series. They
provide good high current pulse protection with
moderate capacitance.
TV Series – This is our low capacitance MLV series,
similar to the SV Series. This series should be
selected when the SV series capacitance is too hi gh.
PV Series – This is our power MLV series. They can
protect against higher surge currents than the SV
Series.
AV Series – This is our array series. They are
designed for multiple I/O connections in a single
package.
The MLV Series of varistors are designed to provide
transient, surge, and ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)
protection for a wide variety of applications.
STYLE DESIGNATION
The Maida Style Number is the typical means to
identify our components when ordered. The style
number identifies several parameters that are
important for the characteristics of the device. An
alternative ordering method, if known, is by our Item
Number.
The following example is the standard part
numbering system when ordering our MLV Series
components by the Maida Style Number:
