FAQs
What is RXE160?
The RXE160 is a resettable fuse model produced by Littelfuse. It is designed to protect electrical circuits from overcurrent and short circuit conditions by automatically disconnecting the power supply and then resetting once the fault is cleared.
How Does RXE160 Work?
The RXE160 works by utilizing a specially designed polymer material that heats up and changes its resistance in response to overcurrent conditions. When an overcurrent or short circuit occurs, the resistance of the polymer increases, causing the fuse to trip and interrupt the circuit. Once the fault is removed and the temperature decreases, the polymer resets, allowing current flow again.
How Many Pins does RXE160 have and What are the Functions of the Pinout Configuration?
The RXE160 is a surface-mount device and typically comes in a 2-terminal or 3-terminal configuration. The pinout configuration includes:
- Terminal 1: Connection point for the input current.
- Terminal 2: Connection point for the output current.
- (Optional) Terminal 3: Connection point for an external monitoring or reset feature (if available).
What are the Pros and Cons of RXE160?
Pros:
- Resettable: Automatically resets once the fault is cleared, unlike traditional fuses that need replacement.
- Overcurrent Protection: Protects circuits from damage due to overcurrent and short circuit events.
- Compact Size: Small and space-efficient design suitable for various applications.
- Cost-Effective: Eliminates the need for frequent fuse replacements, leading to cost savings in the long run.
Cons:
- Hold Current Limitation: Has a maximum hold current rating, so prolonged overcurrent conditions may affect performance.
- Reset Time: The reset time after an overcurrent event may introduce a temporary downtime in the circuit operation.
Are There Any Equivalents/Alternatives to RXE160 for Recommendation?
- Alternatives to the RXE160 include the MF-RX series resettable fuses from Bourns and the PolySwitch RXEF series from TE Connectivity.
- Equivalents to the RXE160 are the RGEF series resettable fuses from Raychem (a brand of TE Connectivity) and the Multifuse series from Eaton.
