Bourns SinglFuse SF Series of thin film chip fuses provides overcurrent protection in three surface mountable footprint sizes. 

Each product size features two series to cover the fusing types of fast-acting and slow-blow. The SinglFuse series expands Bourns’ circuit protection products with a line of thin film chip fuses for use in applications such as LCD monitors, digital cameras, mobile phones, industrial controllers and rechargeable battery packs.

The SinglFuse products protect against a wide range of overcurrent events and feature current ratings from as low as 500 m amps up to 7 amps. The thin film design ensures high precision for specific fusing characteristics. 

The single-use thin film chip fuses are designed for applications that require one-time acting fuses that allow a physical break in the circuit if a short circuit arises, eliminating the need for a circuit reset. The thin film design allows customers to order customized thin film chip fuses to meet their specific product needs.  The fuse line is also RoHS compliant and halogen free.
