Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MF-SMHT136-2 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the MF-SMHT136-2-6 based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Substitution is valid when the following criteria are met:

  • Voltage rating: 16V maximum
  • Hold current: 1.36A
  • Trip current: 2.72A
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C to 125°C
  • Package type: 2-SMD surface mount
  • Physical dimensions: 7.98mm L x 6.71mm W x 3.00mm maximum thickness
  • Polymeric PTC resettable fuse technology
  • AEC-Q200 qualification maintained
  • ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status

The primary distinction between MF-SMHT136-2-6 and MF-SMHT136-2 is packaging format: the former uses standard packaging while the latter is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc. within the same Multifuse® MF-SMHT series and maintain active product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both MF-SMHT136-2-6 and MF-SMHT136-2 are suitable for applications requiring a 16V polymeric PTC resettable fuse with 1.36A hold current. Selection between these parts should be based on procurement and assembly requirements:

The MF-SMHT136-2-6 is appropriate for applications with standard packaging requirements and lower volume needs. The MF-SMHT136-2 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations where continuous reel feeding is required.

Both parts maintain active product status from Bourns Inc., carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, and comply with ROHS3 and REACH regulatory requirements. Electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and mechanical compatibility are identical across both variants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MF-SMHT136-2 be used as a direct replacement for MF-SMHT136-2-6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format: MF-SMHT136-2-6 uses standard packaging while MF-SMHT136-2 is supplied in Tape & Reel format. Substitution is valid for any application where the electrical specifications match the circuit requirements.

Q: What are the critical parameters that define substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is valid when voltage rating (16V), hold current (1.36A), trip current (2.72A), operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), and physical dimensions (7.98mm x 6.71mm x 3.00mm) remain constant. All other parameters must also match exactly.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel packaging (MF-SMHT136-2) and standard packaging (MF-SMHT136-2-6) contain identical components with identical electrical characteristics. Packaging format only affects handling, storage, and assembly processes.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both MF-SMHT136-2-6 and MF-SMHT136-2 carry AEC-Q200 qualification, confirming suitability for automotive-grade applications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
