SCOPE
1.1
Scope. This specification establishes the requirements for thick film current limiting 1206 chip
fuses. Fuses described in this document are designed and manufactured for high reliability applications based
on guaranteed blow limits. These fuses are intended for use in direct (DC) and alternating current (AC) circuits
and are capable of operation over a temperature range of –55°C to +125°C ambient including high vacuum
environments.
2.
LOT ACCEPTANCE TESTING
2.1
Lot Acceptance Testing. This specification provides for two acceptance levels for the
procurement of the fuses. The degree of testing and associated documentation can be specified as appropriate
to the end use of the fuses. Regardless of the acceptance level specified, the inherent quality and reliability of
the fuses will remain constant. The acceptance levels with the applicable inspection required are indicated in
Table I.
TABLE I. LOT ACCEPTANCE LEVEL.

REQUIREMENTS
AEM Operation for Snapstrate Visual (Element/Termination).
AEM Operation for Final Visual Inspection of Chip Fuses.
4.1
Qualification. Fuses manufactured in accordance with this document shall be capable of passing
the qualification requirements specified in Table V and section 4 of this document.
4.2
Materials, Design and Construction. The materials, design and construction of the fuses shall be
as specified herein.
4.2.1 Terminals. The base terminations shall be silver with plated nickel and a final finish of
Sn90/Pb10 solder coating. Under no circumstances shall the tin percentage exceed 97%.
4.3
Voltage Rating. The voltage ratings for fuses specified herein are 24 and 32 volts DC. The
applicable voltage ratings are specified in Table VI.
4.4
Current Rating. The current rating is the maximum amperes that the fuse will carry at a
substrate temperature of +25°C without degradation. The applicable current ratings are specified in Table VI.
4.5
Temperature Rating. The temperature rating for fuses specified herein is –55°C to +150°C
nonoperating. The maximum operating temperature shall not exceed a substrate temperature of +125°C. The
temperature derating curve is given in Figure 3.
4.6
Resistance Rating. The cold resistance of the fuses shall be as specified in Table VI when
measured in accordance with 5.8.2.
4.7
Performance.
4.7.1 Thermal Shock. When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.3 herein, they shall show no
electrical or mechanical damage.
4.7.2 Current-Carrying Capacity. When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.6, they shall show no
evidence of mechanical damage and shall carry the current as specified without electrical failure. The temperature
rise of the substrate shall at no point rise more than +85°C above the ambient air temperature.
4.7.3 Termination Strength. When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.7, the end terminations shall
not break or loosen. The cold resistance values shall not change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.4 Thermal Vacuum (Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.16, they shall
not open circuit during the application of derated DC current nor shall there be evidence of arcing or mechanical
damage after the test. Fuses that are subjected to the 400 percent overload current test shall "blow" within the time
period specified (see Table VI). The cold resistance values of those fuses not subjected to the overload current
shall not change by more than 10 percent when measured after thermal vacuum exposure.

4.7.5
Overload Current.
4.7.5.1 Overload Current Characterization. Each fuse lot shall be sampled to assure that the blow times
fall within the limits of Table VI. Each lot shall be truncated to form an inspection lot based upon the cold resistance
measured after thermal shock. The manufacturer shall blow samples (a minimum of 20 samples total) selected
from the extremes of the truncated population to insure that their blow times are within the specification. The results
of this procedure shall be included in the "Group A Data" with the lot data package.
4.7.5.2 Overload Current. Fuses selected from a truncated distribution shall be tested in accordance with
2
5.8.14. The clearing times and the maximum I t shall be as specified in Table VI. After clearing, the circuit shall
remain open without closing again during a one-minute period. The let through energy during the one-minute period
2
shall be included in the calculation of I t. The blown fuses shall meet the resistance after firing test of 4.7.6.
4.7.6 Resistance after Firing. When blown fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.15, the minimum
resistance shall be 1 megohm.
4.7.7 Moisture Resistance (Group C / Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance with
5.8.8, there shall be no evidence of mechanical damage or excessive corrosion of the terminations. The resistance
of the fuses shall not change by more than 15 percent as a result of the moisture exposure.
4.7.8 Shock (Group C / Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.9, there shall
be no evidence of mechanical damage and the fuse resistance shall not change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.9 Vibration (Group C / Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.10, there
shall be no evidence of mechanical damage and the fuse resistance shall not change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.10 Low Temperature Operation (Group C / Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance
with 5.8.12, they shall not open circuit and the fuse resistance shall not change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.11 Life (2000 Hours, Group C / Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.13,
they shall not open circuit and the fuse resistance shall not change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.12 Resistance to Soldering Heat. When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.11, there shall be no
mechanical damage and the fuse resistance shall not change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.13 Solderability. Fuses shall meet the solderability requirements specified in MIL-STD-202, Method
208.
4.7.14 Salt Spray (Group C / Qualification Only). When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.17, there
shall be no evidence of excessive corrosion. Excessive corrosion is defined as that which interferes with the
electrical or mechanical performance. There shall be no mechanical damage and the fuse resistance shall not
change by more than 10 percent.
4.7.15 Outgassing. When fuses are tested in accordance with 5.8.18, the materials shall meet the
following requirements:
a)
b)
Total mass loss (TML) - Shall not exceed 1.0 percent.
