VE09M00140K-- Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The VE09M00140K-- is a 22V 250A varistor manufactured by KYOCERA AVX in a 9mm disc through-hole package. This component is classified as a Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) and is currently obsolete. Due to its discontinued status, equivalent substitute parts from active manufacturers are necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The electrical specifications remain consistent across qualified substitutes, enabling direct functional replacement in circuit protection applications.

Key Parameters

Parameter	Value
Varistor Voltage (Typical)	22 V
Current - Surge	250 A
Maximum AC Volts	14 V
Maximum DC Volts	18 V
Number of Circuits	1
Mounting Type	Through Hole
Operating Temperature Range	-40°C ~ 125°C

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the VE09M00140K-- is determined by the following critical parameters:

Varistor voltage rating: 22V (minimum 19.8V, maximum 24.2V tolerance band)
Surge current capacity: 250A minimum
Maximum AC/DC voltage ratings: 14V AC / 18V DC
Mounting configuration: Through-hole technology
Number of circuits: Single circuit (1)
Package type: Disc configuration (mechanical compatibility with 9mm or 7mm disc form factors)

The substitute parts V22ZA1P and B72207S0140K101 meet all electrical parameter requirements. Both maintain identical voltage and current ratings within the specified tolerance band. Physical package differences (7mm vs 9mm disc diameter) are accommodated through standard PCB layout adjustments without affecting electrical performance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both V22ZA1P and B72207S0140K101 are qualified substitutes for the obsolete VE09M00140K--. Selection between them is based on the following criteria:

V22ZA1P (Littelfuse): Active product status with ROHS3 compliance. Operating temperature maximum of 85°C is suitable for applications within this thermal envelope. Energy rating of 0.9J provides enhanced transient suppression capability compared to the original part.

B72207S0140K101 (EPCOS - TDK Electronics): Active product status with ROHS3 compliance. Operating temperature range extends to 105°C maximum, accommodating higher ambient or component-level thermal conditions. Energy rating of 0.9J matches V22ZA1P performance. Larger inventory availability (13,185 pcs) supports production continuity.

Both substitutes are electrically equivalent within the specified parameter tolerance band. Physical package transition from 9mm to 7mm disc diameter requires PCB layout modification but does not affect electrical performance or circuit functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can V22ZA1P or B72207S0140K101 directly replace VE09M00140K-- without circuit modification?

A: Electrical substitution is direct. The varistor voltage, surge current, and voltage ratings are identical. Physical package change from 9mm to 7mm disc requires PCB hole pattern adjustment; no circuit schematic changes are necessary.

Q: What is the difference between the 9mm and 7mm disc packages?

A: Both are through-hole disc configurations with identical electrical performance. The 7mm diameter is smaller, reducing PCB footprint. Lead spacing and mounting hole diameter remain compatible with standard through-hole assembly processes.

Q: Why do the substitute parts have higher energy ratings (0.9J vs 0.6J)?

A: The 0.9J energy rating in V22ZA1P and B72207S0140K101 represents enhanced transient suppression capability. This provides equivalent or superior performance for the same voltage and current specifications.

Q: Are there temperature range differences between the substitutes?

A: V22ZA1P operates to 85°C maximum; B72207S0140K101 operates to 105°C maximum. Select based on your application's thermal requirements. Both exceed the original part's -40°C minimum specification.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet current compliance standards?

A: Both V22ZA1P and B72207S0140K101 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The original VE09M00140K-- is non-compliant due to obsolete status.

Q: Which substitute has better availability?

A: B72207S0140K101 has significantly higher inventory (13,185 pcs) compared to V22ZA1P (5,981 pcs), supporting sustained production requirements.
