Bourns, a leading global supplier of electronic components, announced the addition of a new force to its award-winning Multifuse products - AEC-Q200 certified high temperature polymer polymer positive temperature coefficient (PPTC) self-healing fuse. Designed with 1206 and 1210 (3014 and 3024 metric) surface mount packages with operating temperatures up to 125 ° C, the miniature MF-NSHT and MF-USHT series designed by Bourns are the preferred circuit protection for automotive systems; excellent self-healing overcurrent protection Features also apply to the new generation of high-density industrial circuit board, telecommunications and consumer electronics products.

The latest high-temperature Multifuse products use Bourns' freeXpansion process; this process greatly reduces the package size, increases the maintenance current (Ihold), stabilizes the resistance, and pulls up the rated voltage (Vmax). At high temperatures, MF-NSHT and MF-USHT series Ihold can be up to 0.50 Amps, R1 can be reduced to 1.6 Ohms.

"Many automotive systems, especially applications under the hood, must be operated in very high temperature environments and require the use of electronic components that can withstand harsh environmental conditions." Bourns is manufactured on high temperature surface mount packages from self-healing fuses , Has accumulated a wealth of experience to help ensure the stability of the operation, but also allow the design to meet the requirements of AEC-Q200 Rev-C test. "Bourns Multifuse product line manager Lee Bourns said:" In addition to Bourns critically acclaimed high temperature MF- PSHT, MF-SMHT and MF-RHT products, our latest MF-NSHT and MF-USHT series also provide more new overcurrent protection options for designers of automotive and electronic components. "

Bourns Multifuse MF-NSHT and MF-USHT series are manufactured by TS16949 certified factory, RoHS * and UL's safety certification and are available for sale.
