Disclosed herein is a combined varistor and LC filter device in which both a varistor function of protecting circuits by absorbing surge voltage and an electromagnetic interference filter function of improving radiation characteristics are implemented in a single chip, thus having reduced mounting area. The combined device includes a body which acts as an insulator at voltages below a predetermined level, and the resistance of which decreases rapidly at voltages above a predetermined level. Inductance patterns constituting an LC resonant circuit, capacitance patterns and ground patterns are implemented in the body in a multilayer structure. The combined device operates as an LC filter at a low voltage and operates as a varistor at a high voltage.
