The Bourns CB85A1B is a miniature thermal cutoff (TCO) device specifically engineered for battery cell protection in a variety of applications, including notebook PCs, tablet PCs, and smartphones. This device offers robust overtemperature and overcurrent protection, effectively controlling abnormal and excessive current flow up to the rated limits. A key feature is its resettable nature; the device resets automatically when the ambient temperature decreases by 10°C below the minimum trip temperature and power is cycled. The CB85A1B is designed for ease of integration and offers high corrosion resistance, making it suitable for demanding environments. It is crucial to adhere to the design and handling cautions outlined in the datasheet to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage.
