SMD high current jumpers in sizes from 0402 to 2512
Stackpole's HCJ Series, a surface mount chip jumper, offers current ratings ranging from 14.2amps for the 0402 up to 63.2amps for the HCJ2512. In comparison, the typical rated current for a standard 2512 thick film jumper is 3amps. The HCJ0402 has a maximum resistance of 3mΩ while the other sizes have a maximum resistance of 0.5mΩ. This ensures much lower power dissipation for the HCJ compared to similar jumpers with typical resistance of up to 50mΩ. In addition, the HCJ is AEC-Q200 compliant.
The HCJ is available in chip sizes 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206, and 2512 and is 100% RoHS compliant and lead free. Pricing is size dependent and ranges from $0.067 to $0.11 each in full reel quantities.
