VCAS04AG183R0YAT_17 Datasheet, PDF (1/3 Pages) AVX Corporation – AVX Low Capacitance Automotive Varistors ESD Protection for Automotive Circuits Sensitive to Capacitance

AntennaGuard 0402/0603 Automotive Series
AVX Low Capacitance Automotive Varistors
ESD Protection for Automotive Circuits Sensitive to Capacitance
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AVX 0402/0603 Automotive AntennaGuard products are an ultra low
capacitance extension to the Automotive TransGuard® Series and are
intended for use in RF and other capacitance sensitive circuits.
These low capacitance values have low insertion loss, low leakage
current and unsurpassed reliability compared to diode options. These
advantages combined with size advantages and bi-directional protection
make the AntennaGuard the right choice for automotive applications
including RF circuits, sensors, high-speed signal transmission lines, etc…
