0203002.H

Fuses

The 0203002.H is a fuse commonly used electronics and electrical engineering applications. It works by breaking a circuit when connected to a voltage source higher than the nominal operating voltage. This fuse type is used in suppression or over-current protection applications, preventing the development of short circuits or overloading caused by current spikes or prolonged higher than acceptable current flows.

This fuse has a nominal operating voltage of up to 4.0 volts and a maximum continuous current rating of 200mA. It has a wide operating temperature range, from -5°C up to 125°C. It is small, inexpensive and robust, measuring just 6mm long, 4mm wide and 1.3mm high, and is typically made of metal or glass.

The working principle of the 0203002.H is simple. When the current through the fuse reaches a predetermined level, the fuse wire or strip melts, breaking the circuit at that point. This prevents any further current flow and protects sensitive electrical components from damage. Depending on the geometry of the fuse and the level of current, the fuse can either automatically reset itself once the current falls below the predetermined level, or it can require manual resetting.

A key advantage of the 0203002.H is its relatively fast response time compared to other fuse types. Its response time is typically less than 25 milliseconds, while other fuse designs can take up to 40 milliseconds or more. This fast response minimizes cumulated energy and thus can reduce the risk of damage to electrical equipment.

The 0203002.H can be used for a wide variety of applications, primarily in electronics and electrical engineering. It is used in a range of different devices, from automotive equipment such as engine computers and electronic control units, to appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and other home appliances. It is also used in industrial and medical devices, and various types of electrical control systems.

In conclusion, the 0203002.H is a small, inexpensive and robust fuse type that can be used in a wide range of applications. Its fast response time of less than 25 milliseconds helps protect electrical equipment from damage due to current spikes or overloading. It is an ideal choice for many electronics and electrical engineering applications.
