Description
The MLA Series (also known as "ML" series) family of transient voltage surge suppression devices is based on the Littelfuse Multilayer fabrication technology. These components are designed to suppress a variety of transient events, including those specified in IEC 61000-4-2 or other standards used for Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC). The MLA Series is typically applied to protect integrated circuits and other components at the circuit board level.

FEATUREs
• RoHS compliant
•  Leadless 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206 and 1210 chip sizes
• Multilayer ceramic construction technology
•  -55°C to +125°C operating temp. range
•  Operating voltage range VM(DC) = 5.5V to 120V
•  Rated for surge current (8 x 20μs)
•  Rated for energy (10 x 1000μs)
•  Inherent bi-directional clamping

APPLICATIONs
•  Suppression of inductive switching or other transient events such as EFT and surge voltage at
the circuit board level
•  ESD protection for IEC 61000-4-2, MIL-STD-883c method 3015.7, and other industry specifications (see also the MLE or MLN Series)
• Provides on-board transient voltage protection for ICS and transistors
•  Used to help achieve electromagnetic compliance of end products
•  Replace larger surface mount TVS Zeners in many applications
