A varistor having a favorable heat-dissipating property is provided.In the varistor, a composite part having a favorable heat-dissipating property formed by a composite material composed of ZnO and Ag is arranged between main faces of a varistor matrix. Therefore, the heat transmitted from a semiconductor light-emitting device to a varistor part through an outer electrode can rapidly be transferred toward a main face on the opposite side through the composite part. In this varistor, side faces excluding inner side faces are exposed at side faces of the varistor matrix. Such a structure yields a favorable heat-dissipating property.

A varistor comprises an element body, two external electrodes, and a metal conductor. The element body includes a portion having first and second faces opposing each other. Two external electrodes are arranged on the first face of the element body. The metal conductor is arranged on the second face of the element body. The metal conductor has a thermal conductivity higher than that of the element body. At least a region between the two external electrodes and metal conductor in the element body exhibits a nonlinear current-voltage characteristic. The heat transmitted to the varistor is efficiently diffused from the metal conductor in the varistor.
摘要:
In a varistor, a heat radiating portion contains the same components as ZnO that is the main component of a varistor element body, as metal oxides, thereby, the structural components of the varistor element body and the heat radiating portion are caused to be common. During firing, Ag contained in the heat radiating portion diffuses into the grain boundaries of ZnO, near the interface between surfaces of the heat radiating portion and the varistor element body. Consequently, in the varistor, cracks hardly occur between the varistor portion and the heat radiating portion during firing (or during binder removal), thereby, ensuring sufficient bonding strength between the varistor portion and the heat radiating portion. Therefore, heat conducted to the varistor portion is radiated efficiently conducting through electrically conducted paths formed in the heat radiating portion from the surface facing the varistor element body to other three surfaces of the heat radiating portion.
