Ceramic Fuse > 438A Series 

## **Surface Mount Fuses** 

## 438A Series – 0603 Fast-Acting Fuse 

## **RoHS** ~~**Pb** [_IQHF cSAMus @.~~ 

## ~~**Description**~~ 

The 438A series AECQ-compliant fuses are specifically tested to cater secondary circuit protection needs of compact auto electronics application. 

The general design ensures excellent temperature stability and performance reliability. 

The high I²t values which is typical in the Littelfuse ceramic fuse family ensure high inrush current withstand capability.

Notes: 

1. AC Interrupting Rating tested at rated voltage with unity power factor. DC Interrupting Rating tested at rated voltage with time constant < 0.8 msec. 

2. Nominal Resistance measured with < 10% rated current. 

3. Nominal Melting I²t measured at 1 msec. opening time. 

Devices designed to carry rated current for 4 hours minimum. It is recommended that devices be operated continuously at no more than 80% rated current. See “Temperature Re-rating Curve”for additional re-rating information. 

Devices designed to be mounted with marking code facing up. 

4. Nominal Voltage Drop measured at rated current after temperature has stabilized.

Note: 

1. Re-rating depicted in this curve is in addition to the standard re-rating of 20% for continuous operation. 

Example: 

- For continuous operation at 75 degrees celsius, the fuse should be rerated as follows: 

- I = (0.80)(0.85)IRAT = (0.68)IRAT
