1608FF
Agency Approvals: General Description: Bussmann SMT Chip Fuses utilise thick and thin metal film technologies for superior fusing action and enhanced reliability. The fuse element is bonded to a ceramic substrate and encapsulated with glass, providing excellent short circuit performance and environmental integrity. Predicted reliability of the 1608FF chip fuse is 30 times greater than that of the typical chip capacitor (consult Bussmann for details). Substrate and coating thermal expansion coefficients are closely matched to that of FR-4 epoxy glass circuit board for superior solder joint reliability. The end terminations are over-plated with nickel and tin base. Breaking Capacity: 100% rated current: 250% rated current: Dimensions (mm): 35 A @ rated voltage 4 hours minimum carry. open within 5 seconds. Time Current Characteristics:

The Microtron subminiature fuse is designed to safely interrupt 50 amperes at 125V ac. This excellent performance is achieved at power factors as low as 97%. Competitive components claim similar short circuit interrupting ratings, but at 100% power factor - a condition that rarely exists in real world applications. In addition, the Microtron is capable of interrupting a 300 ampere fault at 125V dc. Dimensions (mm):

Fuse Technology and Glossary of Terms

Basic Fuse Technology
Miniature fuses serve two main purposes: a. To protect components, equipment and people from risk of fire and shock risk caused by overcurrents. To isolate sub systems from the main system once a fault has occurred. greater than or equal to the circuit voltage. Because the fuse has such low resistance, the voltage rating becomes critical only when the fuse is trying to open. The fuse must be able to open quickly, extinguish the arc after the fuse element has melted and prevent the system open-circuit voltage from re-striking across the open fuse element.

Bussmann
Glossary of Terms

b.

Overcurrents
Overcurrents exist when the normal load for a circuit is exceeded. It can be either an overload or short circuit. An overload is any current flowing within the normal circuit path that is higher than the normal circuit full load current. A short circuit is an overcurrent which greatly exceeds the normal full load current of the circuit. Components and equipment can be damaged by both types of overcurrents.

Current Ratings
Each fuse is marked with a nominal current rating. Several factors can affect the ability of the fuse to carry this rated current. First the base material of the clip in which the fuse is mounted may greatly affect the performance of the fuse. Another important factor is the conductor size used to connect the fuse to other circuit components. If the conductor is too small, it will generate heat. That extra heat will be seen by the fuse, causing the fuse to open before it should. It is also important that the fuse be installed with clean and tight connections. If the connections are dirty or loose, they will cause increased resistance, generating extra heat. That heat will lead to a shortened fuse life.

Selecting Overcurrent Protection

During normal load current conditions, the fuse must carry the normal load current of the circuit without nuisance opening. However, when an overcurrent occurs the fuse must interrupt the overcurrent and withstand the voltage across the fuse after arcing. To properly select a fuse the following items must be considered:

Breaking Capacity
A fuse must be able to open the circuit under a short circuit without endangering its surroundings. The breaking capacity of a protective device is the maximum available current, at the rated voltage, that the device can safely open without the possibility of rupturing.

Voltage rating (ac or dc voltage) Full load currents (RMS Amperes) Available short circuit current In-rush characteristics Characteristics of equipment or components to be protected Ambient conditions Standards requirements

Fuse Resistance
In most applications, the voltage drop across the fuse due to its internal and contact resistances is negligible. There are, however, certain critical applications where the fuse resistance must be considered and it is important that the circuit designer understands the fuse characteristics in order to select the proper fuse.

In addition, consideration must be given to: Available board space Type of mounting Automatic or manual insertion Reliability Ease of field service.

Physical Sizes
There are numerous physical sizes of electronic fuses, including subminiature fuses. The most common cylindrical designs are 5x20mm and 6.3x32mm. Subminiature fuses are often used when board space is limited. For applications of this type there are both through-hole and surface mount devices available. Standard package sizes for surface mount fuses are 1608, 3216 & 6125. These sizes are standard throughout the electronic industry. Through-hole axial and radial leaded products allow fuses to be PCB mounted. Standard 5x15mm & 5x20mm fuses fitted with leads can also be mounted in this way. Our surface mount range will continue to be expanded allowing them to be designed into an even wider range of applications.

Electronic circuits frequently exhibit surges, caused by capacitors charging, motors being momentarily stalled, or high voltage components sparking over. It is important that designers take account of these temporary conditions during fuse selection. The ability to resist surges is a function of the fuse design relative to the surge pulse, duration, frequency etc. Comparison of a manufacturers I2t value alone is not sufficient and Bussmann would be pleased to advise on specific applications.

Voltage Ratings
The voltage rating of the fuse must be www.bussmann.com

Ampere squared seconds I2t A measure of heat energy supplied to a circuit while the fuse is clearing a fault. It can be expressed as melting I2t, arcing I2t or the sum of them clearing I2t. This is usually used as a measure of short circuit performance. Arcing time The amount of time from the instant the fuse link has melted until the overcurrent is interrupted, or cleared. Clearing time The total time between the beginning of the overcurrent and the final opening of the circuit at rated voltage by an overcurrent protective device. Clearing time is the total of the melting time and the arcing time. Fast acting fuse A fuse which opens on overload and short circuits very quickly. This type of fuse is not designed to withstand temporary overload currents with some electrical loads. Fuse An overcurrent protective device with a fusible link that operates and opens the circuit on an overcurrent condition. Overcurrent A condition which exists on an electrical circuit when the normal load current is exceeded. Overcurrents take on two separate characteristics - overloads and short circuits. Overload Can be classified as an overcurrent which exceeds the normal full load current of a circuit. Resistive load An electrical load which is characterised by not having any significant inrush current. When a resistive load is energised, the current rises instantly to its steady state value, without first rising to a higher value. RMS Current The R.M.S. (root mean square) value of any periodic current is equal to the value of the direct current which, flowing through a resistance, produces the same heating effect in the resistance as the periodic current does. Short circuit Can be classified as an overcurrent which exceeds the normal full load current of a circuit by a factor many times (tens, hundreds or thousands greater). Time delay fuse A fuse with a built-in time delay that allows temporary and harmless inrush current to pass without operating, but is so designed to open on sustained overloads and short circuits. Time lag (surge proof) A fuse which can withstand short high current pulses and is particularly suitable for television sets, amplifiers etc. Voltage rating A maximum open circuit voltage in which a fuse can be used, yet safely interrupt an over-current. Exceeding the voltage rating of a fuse impairs its ability to clear an overload or short circuit safely.
