ESD Surge MELF Absorber - ESM
SMD enabled structure, 0204 MELF style
The ESD Surge MELF Absorber (ESM204) features an SMD enabled structure, providing protection through sparking over the porous layer when the surge exceeds the spark-over voltage. Thanks to its superior reliability and stability, the resistor excels in heat dissipation compared to chip resistors and possesses a stronger mechanical structure to endure vibration and thermal shock. This makes it suitable for telephone, fax machines, and XDSL applications.
