SURFACE-MOUNT FUSES
Slow-Blow Chip Fuses
Available in industry standard 1206 and 0603 chip sizes,
Littelfuse slow-blow chip fuses help provide overcurrent
protection on systems that experience large and frequent
current surges as part of their normal operation.
The slow-blow chip fuse’s monolithic, multilayer design
helps provide some of the highest current ratings
available in the 1206 and 0603 footprints and enhances
high-temperature performance in a wide range of
circuit protection designs. The devices’ small size, high
reliability and strong arc suppression characteristics
make them suitable for overcurrent protection of power
supplies, capacitor filter banks, Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD) backlight inverters, electric motors and portable
electronics.
BENEFITS
• Time-delayed design prevents nuisance openings in
pulsed and high inrush current applications
• Small size with high-current ratings
• Strong arc suppression characteristics
APPLICATIONS
• Small motors systems
• Portable electronics
• Input power ports
• Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• Test equipment
• POL converter protection
• Computer drives
• Displays
• Printers
FEATURES
• Lead-free materials and RoHS compliant
• Halogen free
(refers to: Br900ppm, Cl900ppm, Br+Cl1500ppm)
• Monolithic multilayer design
• High-temperature performance
• -55°C to +125°C operating temperature range
