The 1812L150-16DR is a surface-mount resettable overcurrent protection device (POLY-FUSE® PTC) designed for electronic equipment requiring efficient overcurrent protection.
The 1812L150-16DR is a surface-mount resettable overcurrent protection device (POLY-FUSE® PTC) designed for electronic equipment requiring efficient overcurrent protection. With a 1.50A hold current and 2.80A trip current, it quickly responds to overloads by limiting current and automatically resets after faults, eliminating the need for frequent replacement like traditional fuses. Ideal for space-constrained, high-precision circuit protection scenarios.
Key Features
Rapid Response & Auto-Reset: Instantly increases resistance during overloads and resets without manual intervention, enabling maintenance-free continuous protection.
Compact & Low Resistance: Uses an 1812 package (4.5mm×3.2mm) for high-density PCB layouts, with a typical internal resistance of 0.04Ω to minimize energy loss during normal operation.
Wide Voltage Range & High Reliability: Supports 16V DC voltage and withstands up to 100A fault current, suitable for diverse complex circuit environments.
High-Temperature Tolerance & Eco-Compliance: Compatible with 260°C reflow soldering, lead-free, halogen-free, and RoHS compliant for green manufacturing requirements.
Precise Thermal Compensation: Built-in temperature-sensitive material adjusts protection thresholds according to ambient temperature, ensuring reliable protection under varying conditions.
