Thermal-protective transient voltage suppressor (TVS)

Abstract

A thermal-protective transient voltage suppressor (TVS) includes a TVS assembly, a housing, a frame, a cover plate, and a pin, where the TVS assembly is provided in the frame; the TVS assembly is electrically connected to the pin; the housing and the cover plate form an accommodation chamber for accommodating the frame; the pin extends out of the accommodation chamber, and an extended part of the pin is provided with a mounting portion for surface mount soldering; a spacing limit post is provided on the cover plate; and the frame abuts against the spacing limit post, such that the mounting portion of the pin and the TVS assembly are spaced apart by a preset distance. The spacing limit post on the cover plate of the thermal-protective TVS limits the frame provided with the TVS assembly, thereby increasing a distance between the mounting portion of the pin and the TVS assembly.
