B72500T0140K060

TDK · Varistors · 0603

B72500T0140K060 from TDK, in a 0603. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1 passive Terminal of the bidirectional varistor (CT0603K14G, VRMS,max 14 V, VDC,max 18 V); the part is symmetric and connects in parallel with the circuit to be protected.
2 2 passive Second terminal of the bidirectional varistor, interchangeable with terminal 1; recommended pad 1.00 mm x 1.00 mm with 1.00 mm gap on a 1.6 x 0.8 mm body.

Materials and finish

As the datasheet states them (page.json metadata.appearance; the 3D model's colours follow it).

Part Material Colour / plating Datasheet says Page
contacts silver Silver-platinum terminations are mainly used for the large EIA case sizes 1812 and 2220. The sil￾ver-platinum termination is approved for reflow soldering, SnPb soldering and lead-free soldering with 64
