Note:

The high pulse/surge capability of the OARS parts is attributed

to the solid metal alloy construction. In many applications the

cross-section of the OARS is greater than the cross-section of

the board traces connecting the parts to the circuit board.

Cross-Sectional area ranges from approximately 780 mils to

3600 mils.
