Ptc Resettable Fuses Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'KX-2' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm exact packaging configuration and compliance status. Ensure the selected variant matches the required 36VDC rating and 1210 footprint for your PCB layout. Cross-reference the RoHS declaration with the latest product change notifications to guarantee regulatory adherence for your target market.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Selection Notes

Select this component when applications require overcurrent protection at voltages up to 36VDC with a hold current of 200mA. The 1210 package offers a compact solution for space-constrained designs. Consider the -40°C to +125°C operating range for environments with significant thermal variations. Ensure the trip current of 1A aligns with the normal operating current of the protected circuit to prevent nuisance tripping.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Part Context

This part belongs to the Bourns Multifuse MF-USHT series, which specializes in high-temperature PPTC resettable fuses. The series is designed to provide robust circuit protection in applications where standard polymeric fuses may fail due to elevated ambient temperatures. The MF-USHT line expands Bourns' portfolio of surface-mount protection devices for modern electronics.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Bourns selection guide for direct replacements within the MF-USHT series that match the 200mA hold current and 36VDC voltage rating. Verify that any substitute maintains the 1210 package dimensions and -40°C to +125°C temperature range specifications.
