KYOCERA AVX Surface Mount Varistor 1A Clamping 60V VC080526C580DP

KYOCERA AVX VC080526C580DP Surface Mount Varistor is a compact and reliable component engineered for protecting sensitive electronic circuits from transient voltage surges. This device is part of the VC series and utilizes multilayer ZnO ceramic technology to ensure high suppression efficiency and durability. Copper Clad Steel and solder-coated lead finish contribute to its robust construction and compatibility with automated assembly lines.

Featuring a clamping voltage of 60V and clamping current of 1A, it is well suited for applications where voltage spikes can cause damage, such as industrial control systems, consumer electronics, and automotive electronics. The varistor is designed with a surface mount configuration and fits seamlessly onto printed circuit boards, taking up minimal space with dimensions of 2.01 mm length, 1.02 mm height, and 1.25 mm depth.

The VC080526C580DP supports a maximum AC voltage of 18V and DC voltage of 26V, ideal for standard low voltage circuit protection. Its maximum surge current capability of 100A ensures resilience against powerful transient events. The device is specified to operate safely up to 125°C, making it suitable for environments with elevated temperatures. An energy rating of 0.3 Joules enables effective absorption of electrical surges, safeguarding components downstream.

This varistor does not carry automotive or special standards, making it optimized for general electronics rather than critical automotive safety circuits. It is recommended for use in production settings due to its reel packaging options, suitable for surface mount technology (SMT) insertion into machinery.

Use cases include surge and transient suppression in consumer electronics, industrial controllers, and any application requiring the protection of delicate circuits from voltage events. Its reliability and compact size make it a preferred component when board space and robust protection are both critical.
