    Abstract: A varistor is provided having a rectangular configuration defining first and second opposing end surfaces offset in a lengthwise direction. The varistor may include a first terminal adjacent the first opposing end surface and a second terminal adjacent the second opposing end surface. The varistor may include an active electrode layer including a first electrode electrically connected with the first terminal and a second electrode electrically connected with the second terminal. The first electrode may be spaced apart from the second electrode in the lengthwise direction to form an active electrode end gap. The varistor may include a floating electrode layer including a floating electrode. The floating electrode layer may be spaced apart from the active electrode layer in a height-wise direction to form a floating electrode gap. A ratio of the active electrode end gap to the floating electrode gap may be greater than about 2.

    Abstract: A multilayer ceramic capacitor is disclosed including a first external terminal disposed along a first end of the capacitor, a second external terminal disposed along a second end of the capacitor opposite the first end, an active electrode region containing alternating dielectric layers and active electrode layers, and a shield electrode region including at least two shield electrodes that are spaced apart by a shield layer gap in the longitudinal direction. The distance from the active electrode region to the shield electrode region may range from about 4% to about 20% of a thickness of the capacitor between a top surface and a bottom surface opposing the top surface. The shield layer gap may range from about 3% to about 60% of an external terminal gap between the first external terminal and second external terminal in the longitudinal direction on at least one of the top or bottom surfaces.
