MF72-080D9-STRAIGHT

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Overview

The Cantherm MF72-080D9-STRAIGHT is an NTC thermistor inrush current limiter (ICL) from the MF72 series. It features a nominal resistance of 80 Ohms at 25°C with a tolerance of ±20%. The component supports a maximum steady-state current of 800 mA and has a body diameter of 11.00 mm (0.433 inches). It utilizes straight lead wires for through-hole mounting.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Feature Summary

• Provides effective inrush current limiting during power-up phases to protect downstream circuitry
• Features self-resetting capability, automatically returning to high resistance after cooling down
• Designed for reliable operation in through-hole applications with straight lead configurations

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Applications

• Power supply input stages
• Consumer electronic device protection
• Industrial control system circuits

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'STRAIGHT' against official datasheets to confirm lead configuration compatibility. Ensure the 800 mA steady-state current rating meets the application's operational requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status with the supplier prior to procurement.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Selection Notes

Select this component when a higher initial resistance is required compared to lower-ohmage variants in the MF72 series. The straight lead design suits standard PCB layouts requiring axial insertion. Evaluate thermal dissipation needs as the component heats up during normal operation.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Part Context

This part belongs to the Cantherm MF72 series of negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors designed specifically for inrush current limiting. The series offers various resistance and current ratings to suit different power levels. The MF72-080D9-STRAIGHT variant provides a balance of high initial impedance and moderate current handling capacity.
