Description
The AHRF Series is a PPTC resettable device designed
specifically for the automotive industry. It is a 16V
high-temperature, lead-free, radial leaded resettable
device that meets Littelfuse’s Automotive qualification.
This qualification is based on AEC-Q200: Stress Test
Qualification for Passive Components.

Notes:
IH : Hold current: maximum current device will pass without interruption in 25°C,
unless otherwise specified.
IT : Trip current: minimum current that will switch the device from low-resistance to
high-resistance in 25°C still air, unless otherwise specified.
VMAX : Maximum voltage device can withstand without damage at rated current.
IMAX : Maximum fault current device can withstand without damage at rated voltage.
PD : Power dissipated from device when in the tripped state in 25°C still air,
unless otherwise specified.
RMIN : Minimum resistance of device as supplied at 25°C, unless otherwise specified.
R1MAX : Maximum resistance of device when measured one hour post trip at 25°C unless
otherwise specified.
RaMAX : Maximum functional resistance of device after being subjected to the stresses
described in PS400 at 25°C, unless otherwise specified.
RaMIN :
Minimum functional resistance of device after being subjected to the stresses
described in PS400 at 25°C, unless otherwise specified.
* Electrical characteristics determined at 25°C.
