Flat chip fuses
29 September 2010
Circuit & System Protection
Vishay has announced the release of new TFU 0603 thick film flat chip fuses that offer very quick-acting fuse characteristics in a small chip size.
The devices feature rated current values up to 4,0 A and a breaking capacity of 35 A up to a rated voltage of 32 V.
Featuring the standard RR 1608M metric case size (1,55 by 0,85 by 0,45 mm), the Vishay Beyschlag TFU 0603 fuses are designed to provide secondary over-current protection for DC-DC converters, battery chargers and low-voltage power supplies in mobile consumer electronics devices. A highly controlled manufacturing process, combined with Vishay’s thick film technology, provides elevated long-term stability of fusing characteristics.
The halogen-free and lead-free devices support lead-free soldering and are suitable for processing on automatic SMD assembly systems using wave, reflow or vapour phase processes. The new fuses feature a coating that protects against electrical, mechanical and climatic hazards.
