N08SP010L-F

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Overview

The N08SP010L-F is a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor from the YAGEO SP series, designed for inrush current limiting applications. It features a nominal resistance of 10 Ohms with a tolerance of ±15%. The component has a power rating of 2 W and a maximum continuous current rating of 3 A. It utilizes radial leads with a 5 mm spacing for PCB mounting. The operating temperature range spans from -40°C to +170°C. Physical dimensions include an 11 mm diameter and 6 mm width.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Feature Summary

• Provides effective inrush current limitation during power-up sequences
• Features negative temperature coefficient characteristics for self-regulating resistance
• Supports high thermal stability within specified operational limits

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Applications

• Power supply input stages
• Motor drive circuits
• Transformer protection systems

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against official YAGEO documentation to confirm lead length and packaging specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required 15% tolerance and 3 A current rating for the target application. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to confirm compliance with current environmental standards before finalizing procurement orders.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Selection Notes

Select this component when a 10 Ohm initial resistance and 3 A current handling capability are required. Consider the 2 W power rating and 170°C maximum temperature limit for thermal management. Evaluate the radial package and 5 mm lead spacing against available PCB footprint constraints. Compare against similar models like N08SP010M-F if different tolerances or current ratings are needed.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Part Context

This part belongs to the YAGEO SP series of NTC thermistors. These components are specialized for inrush current limiting rather than general temperature sensing. The series offers various resistance values and current ratings to suit different power electronics requirements. The N08SP010L-F specifically targets applications requiring moderate current handling with precise resistance control.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Replacement Considerations

N08SP010M-F offers identical electrical parameters but with a 20% tolerance instead of 15%. Verify that the looser tolerance meets design requirements. Other N08SP variants may differ in current rating or resistance value. Always consult the manufacturer's cross-reference guide for approved substitutes.
