Abstract

The material for transient voltage suppressors is composed of at least two kinds of evenly-mixed powders including a powder material with non-linear resistance interfaces and a conductive powder. The conductive powder is distributed in the powder with non-linear resistance interfaces to relatively reduce the total number of non-linear resistance interfaces between two electrodes and, as a result, decrease the breakdown voltage of the components.
