Image of KYOCERA/AVX Advantages of Multilayer Varistor Versus TVS Diodes - What is it

Multilayer varistors (or MLV) are bidirectional TVS devices that offer significant advantages over competing TVS diode technologies. Featuring a similar structure to standard multilayer ceramic capacitors, MLVs function to protect sensitive ICs from any overvoltage events. TVS stands for Transient Voltage Suppression. These are voltages that are unwanted and many times unpredictable that must be suppressed to prevent catastrophic damage to a circuit.
