Tyco expands Polyswitch device range
A Tyco Electronics UK product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Nov 18, 2009
Tyco Electronics has announced the addition of an industry-standard 0603 device to its line of surface-mount Polyswitch devices.
The FemtoSMDC016F device consumes less than half the board space of prior-generation devices and helps protect sensitive electronics from damage caused by over-current and over-temperature events.
The device's fast time to trip and resettable functionality can help manufacturers reduce warranty costs and improve reliability of portable electronics such as: mobile phones, MP3 players, PDAs, digital cameras, portable computers, Flash drives, USB thumb drives, LCDs and computer peripherals.
The Polyswitch FemtoSMDC016F device provides a smaller footprint than other surface-mount devices - measuring 1.6mm x 0.8mm x 0.5mm.
This offers flexibility in space-constrained applications.
Rated at 9V, the device provides a hold current of 0.16A, a maximum fault current rating of 40A and a maximum resistance of 4.2ohm.
The FemtoSMDC device's low power dissipation and fast time to trip (0.10s at +25C and 1A) make it a logical solution for high-density board designs.
The FemtoSMDC016F device is terminated with nickel-tin finish and is compatible with high-volume assembly processes.
The EIA-compliant device is halogen free, RoHS compliant and UL and CSA certified.
Production quantities are now available in tape and reel packages.
