CH Varistor Series
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.
Agency Approvals Recognized under the components program of Underwriters Laboratories.

NOTES: 1. Power dissipation of transients not to exceed 0.25W. 2. Energy rating for impulse duration of 30ms minimum to one half of peak current value. 3. Also rated to withstand 24V for 5 minutes. 4. All Littelfuse CH Series Varistors are recognized under UL file #E320116 as a recognized component. 5. The Typical Capacitance is for reference only
Current, Energy and Power Derating Curve Continuous power dissipation capability is not an applicable design requirement for a suppressor, unless transients occur in rapid succession. Under this condition, the average power dissipation required is simply the energy (watt-seconds) per pulse times the number of pulses per second. The power so developed must be within the specifications shown on the Device Ratings and Specifications Table for the specific device. Furthermore, the operating values need to be derated at high tempera tures as shown in this 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.

NOTE: If pulse ratings are exceeded, a shift of VN(DC) (at specified current) of more than +/-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 it does not prevent the device from continuing to function, and to provide ample protection.

Lead (Pb) Soldering Recommendations The principal techniques used for the soldering of components in surface mount technology are IR Re-flow and Wave soldering. Typical profiles are shown on the right. CH series devices have silver-platinum terminals (Ag/Pt), and the recommended solder is 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. When using a reflow process, care should be taken to ensure that the CH 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. Reflow Solder Profile
