MHP-TA15-9-72 Datasheet, PDF (1/6 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – Two levels of current carrying capacity:

MHP-TA Device:
MHP with Thermal Activation
The rapidly expanding market for ultra-thin portable
electronic devices, such as media tablets and ultra-thin
PCs, has created demand for very thin, low-profile, light-
weight and high-capacity Lithium Polymer (LiP) and
prismatic cells.
A new MHP (Metal Hybrid PPTC) device, the MHP-TA
device, offers a 9V_DC rating and a higher current rating
than typical battery strap devices. This helps them meet
the battery safety requirements of higher-capacity LiP
4
and prismatic batteries found in the latest tablet and
ultra-thin computing products. Hybrid MHP technology
connects a bimetal protector in parallel with a PPTC
(polymeric positive temperature coefficient) device.
The resulting MHP-TA (Thermal Activation) series helps
provide resettable overtemperature protection, while
utilizing the PPTC device to act as a heater and to help
keep the bimetal latched until the fault is removed.
Benefits
• Capable of handling the higher voltages and battery
discharge rates found in high-capacity LiP and
prismatic cell applications
• Helps provide resettable overtemperature protection
in high-capacity LiP and prismatic cell applications
Features
• 9V_DC rating
• Two levels of current carrying capacity:
- Low current (nominal 6A hold current @25°C)
- High current (nominal 15A hold current @25°C)
• Multiple activation temperature ratings
(72°C, 77°C, 82°C, 85°C, 90°C)
• Compact size (L: 5.8mm x W: 3.85mm x H: 1.15mm)
allows for ultra-thin battery pack designs
Applications
Battery cell protection for high-capacity Lithium Polymer and prismatic cells used in:
• Media tablets
• Ultra-thin notebook PCs
• E-readers
• Smart phones
RoHS Compliant, ELV Compliant
