¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ Integrates Two Polymer Positive Temperature Coefficient Resettable Fuses into a Single Package

Riverside, Calif., March 30, 2010 ¡ª ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ, a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components, today announced that the company has integrated two polymer positive temperature coefficient (PPTC) resettable fuses into a single package. This new Multifuse? device contains twin 250V polymer PTC resettable fuses and decreases the circuit protection footprint by fifty percent on the circuit board. Designated the ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Model MF-SD013/250-2, the device provides both tip and ring overcurrent protection and aids compliance with ITU-T K.20, K21 and K.45 industry standards as well as Telcordia GR-1089 intra building. ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Multifuse? devices are an optimal solution for telecommunication applications including customer premise equipment and line cards.

"In response to growing demands for smaller devices that use less circuit board real estate, ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ has innovatively packaged two Multifuse? PPTC devices together that protect both tip and ring lines into just one component instead of two,¡± said Paul Wiener, telecom market director for ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ¡¯ circuit protection products. ¡°¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ¡¯ new Multifuse? products deliver superior overcurrent and overvoltage circuit protection and also comply with key industry standards.¡±
