Mouser Now Stocking Bourns NX Series Thermal Cutoff (TCO) Devices for High-Density Battery Protection

Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry's leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the NX Series thermal cutoff (TCO) devices from Bourns.

Bourns NX Series TCO devices are high-current miniature resettable mini-breakers that employ a high-rated corrosion-resistant bimetal mechanism for improved endurance in humid environments. These devices support current capabilities from 12A to 20A at 60°C. The NX series TCO devices offer a 1.2mΩ and 3mΩ typical resistance. The NX series TCO devices are available with 77°C, 82°C, 85°C, and 90°C trip temperature options, which operate within a ±5°C tolerance.

The NX series combines high current-carrying capabilities with a very low-profile package at a height of 0.94mm and body width of 2.8mm. These features make this series an ideal overtemperature and overcurrent protection solution for lithium polymer and prismatic cells in high energy density, smaller batteries such as next-generation notebook PC and tablet battery cells, as well as handheld and wearable electronics.
