15-01-2025 | Bourns | Passives

The latest additions to the Model MF-USHT family broaden the hold current range, raise the maximum voltage and increase the operating temperature range up to +125 °C

Bourns, Inc. has expanded its Multifuse Model MF-USHT Surface Mount PPTC Resettable Fuse Series with nine new products. These latest additions are AEC-Q200 compliant and widen the hold current (Ihold) range up to 2A and increase the maximum voltage (Vmax) to 36VDC while raising the maximum operating temperature to +125C.

The new fuses within the series employ the company’s innovative freeXpansion technology, which improves the product’s performance by including higher hold currents, elevated voltages, and greater resistance stability in a more compact footprint. These advanced features are particularly suitable for overcurrent and overtemperature protection in electronic equipment that needs to operate at high temperatures.

The nine new part numbers added to the Bourns Model MF-USHT Series PPTC Resettable Fuse family are available now and are RoHS compliant. Also, the products are UL/CSA/TÜV recognised to meet safety criteria. The TÜV certifications also cover certifications for IEC 62319-1 and IEC 60738-1, as well as IEC 60730-1:2013 clause 15, clause 17, and Annex J. These products are manufactured within a Bourns IATF 16949 certified facility.
