Digi-Key – Low-current fuses exploit both thin-film and LGA technologies (F0603G0R05FNTR)
Feb 2 2012 - Passives [More Passives Articles]Now available from Digi-Key, AVX’s extended current rated Accu-Guard II Low Current Series now includes 200mA, 150mA, 125mA, 100mA, 75mA, 62.5mA and 50mA versions in 0603 packages. The miniature 0603 low current fuse utilizes thin film and land grid array (LGA) technologies to enable precise control of the component’s electrical and physical characteristics, which is not possible with standard fuse technologies.
The UL E141069 approved, RoHS-compliant Accu-Guard Series fuses are seen as ideal for handheld devices. These include cell phones, PDAs, two-way radios, video/digital cameras. The Accu-Guard II’s are ideal in hard disk drives (HDD), LCD screens, computers, instrumentation, battery chargers and rechargeable battery packs.
The miniature 0603 Accu-Guard Low Current Series features a fusing resistance of greater than 1Mohm. Its nickel solder coating is compatible with automatic soldering technologies, says the company.
