## ~~**Description** Po~~ 

- The 494 Series Fast-Acting SMF is an ultra small (0603 size) thin-film device designed for secondary protection of circuits used in space constrained applications such as hand-held portable electronic devices. This series is 100% lead-free and meets the requirements of the RoHS directive. New Halide-Free 494 Series fuses are available to order using the “HF” suffix. See Part Numbering section for additional information. ~~**Features**~~ • Compatible with lead• Element-covering material free solders and higher is resistant to industry temperature profiles standard cleaning 

- • High performance operations materials provide • Mounting pad and improved performance electrical performance are in elevated ambient identical to Littelfuse 431 temperature applications and 434 Series products
