We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Multilayer ceramic",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Varistors protect data lines from
AVX, which we summarised at the time by saying "The multilayer ceramic varistors feature nonlinear, bidirectional voltage-current characteristics similar to back-to-back Zener diodes and an EMC capacitor in parallel".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Ceramic capacitors suit EMI filtering from
Syfer Technology: "Syfer's discoidal multilayer ceramic capacitors can be installed directly into filters, onto bulkheads, hybrid circuits or onto printed circuit boards".
In January 2008, we covered the news from AVX
concerning its CAN Series varistors
- take a look at Varistors protect CANs from ESD
which says: "Multilayer ceramic varistors feature nonlinear, bidirectional voltage-current characteristics similar to back-to-back Zener diodes and an EMC capacitor in parallel".
Take a look also at the news release from AVX, Transient voltage suppression protects antennas,
as well as Ceramic capacitors suit sensitive applications from Kemet Electronics Corp,
and Multilayer ceramic capacitors resist flexing from TTI Europe.
