Supplied in surface mount packaging for space-limited applications, HSP Series is constructed with nanotechnology and ceramic-based compound. Multilayer varistors feature high voltage withstand of 250–300 Vac and high surge current withstand of 200–800 A, dependent on package size. Meeting IEC61000-4-5 standard, devices are suited for LED lighting applications as well as power boards, base stations, AC power supplies, industry equipment, and controllers.
