Littelfuse New SMD Fuse Eliminates The Need for Mulitple Fuse Components

The 871 Series Ultra-High Amperage SMD Fuse was introduced by Littelfuse. The 150A and 200A fuse ratings offered by this cutting-edge new series complement the 881 Series and represent a major upgrade over the 125A maximum rating of the 881 Series. Electronics designers no longer need to use parallel fusing setups thanks to the 871 Fuse Series, which offers a single fuse, surface-mounted solution.Ultra-High Amperage SMD Fuse by Littelfuse 871 Series The Volt Post

The first and only small-sized SMD fuse with ultra-high ratings of 150A and 200A, previously only seen in considerably bigger through-hole fuses, is the 871 Series High-Current SMD Fuse.

This development provides a simplified solution for contemporary electronic designs by addressing the issues of increased power demands and restricted fuse amperage ratings.

Product Features and Benefits:

  • High Amperage Ratings: Available in 150A and 200A, meeting higher power requirements with a single fuse.
  • Space-Saving Design: Provides a smaller-sized fuse solution, saving PCB space compared to larger through-hole legacy fuses.
  • Simplified Design: Eliminates the need for parallel fusing, reducing the number of components and simplifying the bill of materials (BOM).
  • Optimized Efficiency: Enables electronics engineers to optimize their designs for smaller, more space-efficient products.

The 871 Series Fuse is ideally suited for high-power applications in various markets, including:

  • Data Centers: Providing reliable protection for critical infrastructure.
  • Network Infrastructure: Ensuring robust performance in demanding environments.
  • Servers/Racks: Enhancing power management and efficiency in server and rack systems.

The Littelfuse 871 Series Fuse allows designers to satisfy their power needs while lowering the total number of components and size of their final product by providing a high amperage rating in a small form factor.

For electronics professionals who want to streamline their designs and conserve important PCB space, this makes it the perfect choice.

Key Comments

“The Littelfuse 871 Series Fuse helps design teams simplify their processing and bill of materials by eliminating the need for two or more fuse components, reducing it down to just one fuse,” said Daniel Wang, Senior Director of Product Management. “Additionally, these SMD fuses save board space, allowing electronics engineers to optimize their designs further to be smaller and more space efficient.”Ultra-High Amperage SMD Fuse by Littelfuse 871 Series The Volt Post
