Description
The 435 Series are fast-acting surface mount thin-film 
fuses. Their ultra-small size (0402 size) makes them ideal for 
secondary protection of circuits used in space constrained 
applications such as hand-held portable electronic devices. 
This series is 100% lead-free and meet the requirements of 
the RoHS directive. New Halogen-Free 435 Series fuses are 
available–to order use the “HF” suffix. See Part Numbering 
section for additional information.

Temperature Rerating Curve
Note:
1. Derating depicted in this curve is in addition to the standard derating of 25% for 
continuous operation.
Example: 
 For continuous operation at 70 degrees celsius, the fuse should be deratedas follows:
 I = (0.75)(0.80)I
2. The temperature derating curve represents the nominal conditions. For questions 
about temperature derating curve, please consult Littelfuse technical support 
for assistance.
