MPTS2920L260

Ptc Resettable Fuses Overview

The MPTS2920L260 is a polymeric positive temperature coefficient (PPTC) resettable fuse manufactured by Meritek. Designed for surface mount applications, this component utilizes a 2920 (7351 Metric) package with dimensions of 7.4 x 5.1 mm. It features a maximum voltage rating of 6V and a hold current (Ih) of 2.6A. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and offers a power dissipation capacity of 1.5W. This SMD fuse provides circuit protection against overcurrent conditions.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Feature Summary

• Polymeric PPTC technology for automatic reset capability after fault clearance
• Surface mount design compatible with automated assembly processes
• Compact 2920 package size for space-constrained PCB layouts

Ptc Resettable Fuses Applications

• Portable electronic devices requiring overcurrent protection
• Consumer electronics circuits
• Battery pack protection systems

Ptc Resettable Fuses Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage and current ratings against the application requirements before procurement. Ensure the surface mount footprint matches the PCB layout design. Confirm that the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the end product. Check for any specific handling or reflow soldering profile recommendations provided in the official datasheet to ensure reliability.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-voltage, high-current resettable fuse is required for surface mount applications. The 2.6A hold current and 6V rating define the operational limits. Consider the thermal environment and the need for automatic recovery from fault states. Compare package dimensions against available board space to ensure mechanical fit.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Part Context

This part belongs to Meritek's MPTS series of polymeric resettable fuses. The series offers various current and voltage ratings in standardized surface mount packages. These components are designed to replace traditional fusible links in modern electronics, providing reusable protection against electrical faults without manual replacement.

Ptc Resettable Fuses Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes must match the 2920 package, 6V rating, and 2.6A hold current. Verify that alternative PTC fuses have similar trip characteristics and thermal performance. Ensure the substitute component is RoHS compliant if required by the manufacturing process.
