THINKING launches its first 125°C high-temperature polymer PTC resettable fuses (PPTC), KRH and KMH series, for automotive applications that require electronic components to operate in high-temperature environments.
These high-temperature series include the radial leaded KRH series and surface mount KMH series to meet the needs of various customers. The KRH series offers hold current ratings from 2A to 15A and 0.5A to 10A, respectively, at 16Vdc and 32Vdc maximum rated voltages (Vmax). The KMH series, on the other hand, offers a wide range of SMD package sizes, including EIA 0603, 0805, 1206, 1210, and 1812. Its Vmax ranges from 9Vdc to 60Vdc, and its hold current ratings are from 0.05A to 1.75A.
Both high-temperature series are AEC-Q200 qualified and can offer over-current protection to ensure normal operation of automotive electronics in high-temperature environments. Each series is recommended for the automotive applications below based on its electrical performance and configuration.
Electronic components in automotive electronics, especially those under the hood applications, and industrial applications that are particularly demanding, must operate at higher ambient temperatures. Therefore, using the 125°C high-temperature polymer PTC resettable fuses offers the following benefits.
With the addition of the new series, THINKING completes its product line of resettable protective components for automotive applications. Catalogues of the products can be found by clicking the product series names below.
