13 results about "Transient voltage suppressor" patented technology

A transient voltage suppressor or TVS is a general classification of an array of devices that are designed to react to sudden or momentary overvoltage conditions. One such common device used for this purpose is known as the transient voltage suppression diode that is simply a Zener diode designed to protect electronics device against overvoltages. Another design alternative applies a family of products that are known as metal-oxide varistors (MOV) that protect electronic circuits and electrical equipment.

Thermal-protective transient voltage suppressor (TVS)

A thermal-protective transient voltage suppressor (TVS) includes a TVS assembly, a housing, a frame, a cover plate, and a pin, where the TVS assembly is provided in the frame; the TVS assembly is electrically connected to the pin; the housing and the cover plate form an accommodation chamber for accommodating the frame; the pin extends out of the accommodation chamber, and an extended part of the pin is provided with a mounting portion for surface mount soldering; a spacing limit post is provided on the cover plate; and the frame abuts against the spacing limit post, such that the mounting portion of the pin and the TVS assembly are spaced apart by a preset distance. The spacing limit post on the cover plate of the thermal-protective TVS limits the frame provided with the TVS assembly, thereby increasing a distance between the mounting portion of the pin and the TVS assembly.
