Lead (Pb) Soldering Recommendations
The principal techniques used for the soldering of Reflow Solder Profile
components in surface mount technology are IR Re-flow
and Wave soldering. Typical profiles are shown on the right.
230
The recommended solder for the MHS suppressor is
a 62/36/2 (Sn/Pb/Ag), 60/40 (Sn/Pb) or 63/37 (Sn/Pb).
Littelfuse also recommends an RMA solder flux.
Wave soldering is the most strenuous of the processes.

To avoid the possibility of generating stresses due to
thermal shock, a preheat stage in the soldering process
is recommended, and the peak temperature of the solder
process should be rigidly controlled.

ensure that the MHS chip is not subjected to a thermal
gradient steeper than 4 degrees per second; the ideal
gradient being 2 degrees per second. During the soldering
process, preheating to within 100 degrees of the solder's
peak temperature is essential to minimize thermal shock.
Once the soldering process has been completed, it is

still necessary to ensure that any further thermal shocks
are avoided. One possible cause of thermal shock is hot
printed circuit boards being removed from the solder
process and subjected to cleaning solvents at room
temperature. The boards must be allowed to cool gradually
to less than 50ºC before cleaning.

Description
The MLA Automotive Series 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 Automotive
Series is typically applied to protect integrated circuits and
other components at the circuit board level.
The wide operating voltage and energy range make the
MLA Automotive Series suitable for numerous applications
on power supply, control and signal lines.
Size Table The MLA Automotive Series is manufactured from

semiconducting ceramics, and is supplied in a leadless,
Metric EIA surface mount package. The MLA Automtove Series
1608 0603 is compatible with modern reflow and wave soldering
procedures.

Surface Mount Multilayer Varistors (MLVs) > AUML Series
AUML Varistor Series RoHS
Description
The AUML Series of Multilayer Transient Surge Suppressors
was specifically designed to suppress the destructive
transient voltages found in an automobile. The most common
transient condition results from large inductive energy
discharges. The electronic systems in the automobile, e.g.
antilock brake systems, direct ignition systems, engine
control, airbag control systems, wiper motor controls, etc.,
are susceptible to damage from these voltage transients and
thus require protection. The AUML transient suppressors
have temperature independent suppression characteristics
affording protection from -55ºC to 125ºC.
The AUML suppressor is manufactured from semiconducting
Size Table ceramics which offer rugged protection and excellent
transient energy absorption in a small package. The devices
Metric EIA are available in ceramic leadless chip form, eliminating lead
3216 1206 inductance and assuring fast speed of response to transient
surges. These Suppressors require significantly smaller
3225 1210 space and land pads than Silicon TVS diodes, offering greater
4532 1812 circuit board layout flexibility for the designer.

for the transients which are likely to be encountered in an
Load Dump Energy Capability automotive environment.
A Load Dump transient occurs when the alternator load
in the automobile is abruptly reduced. The worst case Multilayer Internal Construction
scenario of this transient occurs when the battery is
disconnected while operating at full rated load. There
are a number of different Load Dump specifications in
existence in the automotive industry, with the most
common one being that recommended by the Society of
Automotive Engineers, specification #SAE J1113. Because
of the diversity of these Load Dump specifications
Littelfuse defines the Load Dump energy capability of
the AUML suppressor range as that energy dissipated by
the device itself, independent of the test circuit setup.
The resultant Load Dump energy handling capability
serves as an excellent figure of merit for the AUML Figure 5
suppressor. Standard Load Dump specifications require
a device capability of 10 pulses at rated energy, across
a temperature range of -40ºC to +125ºC. This capability AUML Load Dump Pulsing over a Temperature Range of

# OF LOAD DUMPS
Explanation of Terms
Maximum Continuous DC Working Voltage (VM*(DC)++)
This is the maximum continuous DC voltage which may
be applied, up to the maximum operating temperature
(125ºC), to the ML suppressor. This voltage is used as the
reference test point for leakage current and is always less
than the breakdown voltage of the device.
Load Dump Energy Rating WLD+

This is the actual energy the part is rated to dissipate
under Load Dump conditions (not to be confused with the
"source energy" of a Load Dump test specification).
Maximum Clamping Voltage VC+

This is the peak voltage appearing across the suppressor
when measured at conditions of specified pulse current
and specified waveform (8/20µs). It is important to note
that the peak current and peak voltage may not necessarily
be coincidental in time.
Leakage Current IL+

In the nonconducting mode, the device is at a very
high impedance (approaching 106Ω at its rated working
voltage) and appears as an almost open circuit in the
system. The leakage current drawn at this level is very
low (<25µA at ambient temperature) and, unlike the
Zener diode, the multilayer TVS has the added advantage
that, when operated up to its maximum temperature,
its leakage current will not increase above 500µA.
Nominal Voltage VNDC++

This is the voltage at which the AUML enters its
conduction state and begins to suppress transients.
In the automotive environment this voltage is
defined at the 10mA point and has a minimum
(VN(DC) MIN) and maximum (VN(DC) MAX) voltage specified.

Surface Mount Varistors > CH Series
CH Varistor Series RoHS
Description
CH Series transient surge suppressors are small,
metal-oxide varistors (MOVs) manufactured in leadless
chip form. They are intended for use in a variety of
applications from low voltage DC to off-line board-level
protection. These devices, which have significantly
lower profiles than traditional radial lead varistors,
permit designers to reduce the size and weight and
increase the reliability of their equipment designs.
CH Series varistors are available in a voltage range from

14V to 275V (VM(AC)RMS), and energy ratings up to 8J.
See the Littelfuse Multilayer Suppressor Series also.

Current, Energy and Power Derating Curve
Continuous power dissipation capability is not an applicable

design requirement for a suppressor, unless transients 100
occur in rapid succession. Under this condition, the 90
average power dissipation required is simply the energy 80

(watt-seconds) per pulse times the number of pulses 70
per second. The power so developed must be within 60
the specifications shown on the Device Ratings and 50
Specifications Table for the specific device. Furthermore, 40
the operating values need to be derated at high tempera 30
tures as shown in this diagram. Because varistors can only 20
dissipate a relatively small amount of average power they 10
are, therefore, not suitable for repetitive applications that 0

-55 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150
involve substantial amounts of average power dissipation. Figure 1 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE ( oC)

AC Bias Reliability
The C-III Series MOVs were designed for use on the AC High Temperature Operating Life 125ºC for 1000 Hours
line. The varistor is connected across the AC line and is at Rated Bias
biased with a constant amplitude sinusoidal voltage. It
should be noted that the definition of failure is a shift in the
300
nominal varistor voltage (VN) exceeding +/-10%. Although
V130LA20C
this type of varistor is still functioning normally after this
250
magnitude of shift, devices at the lower extremities of VN
VNOM AT 1mA (V)

tolerance will begin to dissipate more power.
200
Because of this possibility, an extensive series of
statistically designed tests were performed to determine 150
the reliability of the C-III type of varistor under AC bias
combined with high levels of temperature stress. To 100
date, this test has generated over 50,000 device hours of 0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 1100

The transient surge rating serves as an excellent figure Typical Repetitive Surge Current Capability of
of merit for the C-III varistor. This inherent surge handling C-III Series MOVs
capability is one of the C-III varistor’s best features.
The enhanced surge absorption capability results from
improved process uniformity and enhanced construction.

NOTE: If pulse ratings are exceeded, a shift of VN(DC)(at specified current) of more then +/-10% could result. This type of shift, which normally
results in a decrease of VN(DC), may result in the device not meeting the original published specifications, but does not prevent the device from
continuing to function, and to provide ample protection.

NOTE: If pulse ratings are exceeded, a shift of VN(DC)(at specified current) of

more then +/-10% could result. This type of shift, which normally results in a
decrease of VN(DC), may result in the device not meeting the original published
specifications, but does not prevent the device from continuing to function,
and to provide ample protection.

CURVE
Should transients occur in rapid succession, the average power 01 = Virtual Origin of Wave
dissipation required is simply the energy (watt-seconds) per pulse T = Time from 10% to 90% of Peak
times the number of pulses per second. The power so developed T1 = Rise Time = 1.25 x T
must be within the specifications shown on the Device Ratings T2 = Decay Time
and Characteristics Table for the specific device. Furthermore, Example - For an 8/20 µs Current Waveform:
the operating values need to be derated at high temperatures as
shown in the above diagram. Because varistors can only dissipate
a relatively small amount of average power they are, therefore, not
suitable for repetitive applications that involve substantial amounts
of average power dissipation.

CURVE
Should transients occur in rapid succession, the average power
dissipation required is simply the energy (watt-seconds) per T = Time from 10% to 90% of Peak
pulse times the number of pulses per second. The power T1 = Rise Time = 1.25 x T
so developed must be within the specifications shown on T2 = Decay Time
the Device Ratings and Specifications table for the specific Example - For an 8/20 µs Current Waveform:
device. Furthermore, the operating values need to be derated 8µs = T1 = Rise Time
at high temperatures as shown in above. Because varistors 20µs = T2 = Decay Time
can only dissipate a relatively small amount of average power
they are, therefore, not suitable for repetitive applications that
involve substantial amounts for average power dissipation.

Industrial High Energy Terninal Varistors > HB34, HF34 & HG34 Series
HB34, HF34 and HG34 Varistor Series RoHS
Description
The HB34, HF34, and HG34 Series of transient surge

suppressors are industrial high-energy Metal-Oxide
Varistors (MOVs). They are designed to provide surge
suppression in the AC mains outdoor and service entrance
environment (distribution panels) of buildings. Applications
also include industrial heavy motors, controls, and power
supplies such as used in the oil-drilling, mining, and
transportation fields, including HVAC and motor/generator
applications.
The HB34 Series provides rigid terminals for through-

hole solder mounting on printed circuit boards, thereby
Agency Approvals eliminating the need for screw mounting. The HF34
Series has the same rigid through-hole terminals as the
HB34 with the addition of mounting holes for bolt-down
UL1449 E320116
mounting and longer terminals to allow for additional
mounting flexibility. The HG34 has formed feet with
22.2-1 91788
mounting holes for vertical bolt-down mounting.

CA Varistor Series
Description
The CA Series of transient surge suppressors are industrial

high-energy disc varistors (MOVs) intended for special
applications requiring unique electrical contact or packaging
methods provided by the customer. The electrode finish
of these devices is solderable and can also be used with
pressure contacts. Discs of the same diameter may be
stacked.
This series of industrial disc varistors are nominal 60mm

diameter, with disc thickness ranging from 2.7mm to
32mm. The voltage range is 250V to 2800 V(AC)RMS.
For information on soldering considerations, refer to EC637

"Recommendations for Soldering Terminal Leads to MOV
Additional Information Varistor Discs."

Description
The Littelfuse TMOV® and iTMOV® thermally protected

varistors represent a new development in integrated
circuit protection. Both versions are comprised of radial
leaded Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) with an integrated
thermally activated element designed to open in the
event of overheating due to the abnormal overvoltage,
limited current, conditions outlined in UL1449. The TMOV®
and iTMOV® varistor’s integrated thermal element, in
conjunction with appropriate enclosure design, helps
facilitate SPD module compliance to UL1449 for both cord
connected and permanently connected applications.
The TMOV® and iTMOV® varistors offer quick thermal

response due to the close proximity of the integrated
Agency Approvals thermal element to the MOV body. The integrated
configuration also offers lower inductance than most
discrete solutions resulting in improved clamping
Agency Agency Approval Agency File Number performance to fast overvoltage transients.
UL1449 E320116 The iTMOV® varistor differs from the TMOV® varistor by the
QC 42201-C001, inclusion of a third lead for the purpose of indicating that
QC 42201-A001, IECQ-C BSI 15.0009 the MOV has been disconnected from the circuit. This lead
IEC 60950-1 (Annex Q) facilitates connection to monitoring circuitry.
IEC 61051-1, Additionally TMOV® and iTMOV® varistors are wave

IEC 61051-2, 40021525 solderable, thus simplifying end product assembly by
IEC 60950-1 (Annex Q) reducing the the expense and rework associated with hand
soldering operations.

Wave Solder Profile
Because the TMOV® and iTMOV® varistors contain a thermal protection device, care must be taken when soldering the devices into place.
Two soldering methods are possible. Firstly, hand soldering: It is recommended to heat-sink the leads of the device. Secondly, wave solder-
ing: It is critically important that all preheat stage and the solder bath temperatures are rigidly controlled.

Radial Lead Varistors > TMOV®25S Varistor Series
TMOV®25S Varistor Series RoHS
Description
Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) are rated for specific AC line

operating voltages, and exceeding these limits through the
application of a sustained abnormal over-voltage condition
could result in overheating and damage to the MOV.
The Littelfuse TMOV®25S Varistor Series was designed to

address this condition in a single integrated package.
The TMOV®25S Varistor Series incorporates a patented

integrated thermally responsive element within the body
of the device which will open-circuit the varistor in case of
overheating due to the abnormal over-voltage events.
Agency Approvals The TMOV®25S Varistor Series meets the surge suppressor
component recognition requirements of UL1449 3rd
edition for both cord connected and permanently
connected SPD end products.

Wave Solder Profile Soldering Profile
Because the TMOV®25S Varistor Series contains a 300
thermally responsive device, care must be taken when

MAXIMUM WAVE 260ºC
soldering the device into place. Two soldering methods 250
are possible. Firstly, hand soldering: We recommend

TEMPERATURE (ºC)
the use of pliers to heat-sink the leads of the device. 200
Secondly, wave-soldering: This is a strenuous process

requiring pre-heat stages to reduce the stresses on 150
devices.
100
It is critically important that all preheat stage and the PREHEAT
solder bath temperatures are rigidly controlled. The

50
recommended solder for the TMOV® Varistor Series 0
is a 62/36/2 (Sn/Pb/Ag), 60/40 (Sn/Pb) or 63/37 (Sn/ 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0

Industrial High Energy Thermally Protected Varistors > TMOV 34S Varistor Series ®
TMOV®34S Varistor Series RoHS
Description
The Littelfuse TMOV®34S thermally protected varistor

series consists of a 34mm square format varistor element
(MOV) with an integral thermally activated element. This
element is designed to open in the event of overheating
due to abnormal overvoltage, limited current conditions.
Certain TMOV®34S varistor are offered with a "monitor"
lead which may be connected to signalling circuity to
indicate if the MOV has been disconnected from the circuit.
TMOV®34S varistor series offer quick thermal response due
to the close proximity of the integrated thermal element
to the MOV body. The integrated configuration also offers
lower inductance than most discrete solutions resulting
in improved clamping performance to fast over voltage

Thermally Protected Varistors > SMOV®25S Varistor Series
SMOV25S® Varistor Series RoHS
Description
The Littelfuse SMOV®25S thermally protected varistor is a
self-protected device. It consists of a 25mm square varistor
with an integral thermal disconnect designed to open in the
event of overheating due to abnormal overvoltage as outlined
in UL1449. The SMOV® helps facilitate SPD module compliance
to UL1449 and offers quick thermal response due to the close
proximity of the integrated thermal element to the MOV body.
This configuration also offers lower inductance than most discreet
solutions resulting in improved clamping performance to fast over
voltage transients.
The device has a separate micro-switch, which can be used to
indicate that the MOV has been disconnected from the circuit. This
separate switch makes the monitoring circuitry completely isolated
Agency Approvals from the main power which ensures indicator circuit safety and
simplifies the customers circuit design.

Industrial High Energy Terminal Varistors > FBMOV Series
FBMOV Varistor Series RoHS
Description
The Littelfuse FBMOV Series thermally protected and

non-fragmenting varistor represents a new development
in circuit protection. It consists of a 40kA varistor building
block (MOV) with an integral thermally activated element
designed to open in the event of overheating due to
abnormal over-voltage, limited current conditions.
FBMOV series devices also include a varistor series fuse
which prevents the part from rupturing when subjected to
high fault current (up to 200kA).The tubular fuse-like body
allows for easy mechanical connection in the application.
Another feature of FBMOV is an indicator lead, which may
Applications be connected to monitoring circuitry and used to signal if
the MOV has been disconnected.
• Type 1 SPD (Surge Protection Device) Products FBMOV series devices offer quick thermal response due
• Power supplies to the close proximity of the integrated fusing thermal
• Transformer element to the MOV body. The integrated configuration
also offers lower inductance than most discreet solutions
• Residential Service Panel resulting in improved clamping performance to fast over-
• Power distribution voltage transients.
• IT/Data Center Features
• RoHS compliant and Lead–free

• Will open circuit without rupture during UL 1449
