Is there a pin-compatible replacement for BSMD0805-035-24V?

Yes, several alternatives like ASMD0805-050-24V and BSMD0805-030-30V share the same 0805 package and are pin-compatible. However, their electrical characteristics, especially hold current, differ and are not a drop-in replacement.

What risks should I check before replacing BSMD0805-035-24V?

Before replacing, you must verify the hold current. Using a part with a higher hold current may not protect your circuit, while one with a lower current may trip unnecessarily. Also check the power rating and time-to-trip characteristics.

BSMD0805-035-24V Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | BHFUSE

BSMD0805-035-24V is a 24V, 350mA PTC resettable fuse in an 0805 package. Finding a suitable replacement requires careful matching of hold current, voltage, and power ratings to ensure proper circuit protection.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

Hold current mismatch is a critical design parameter for fuses.

Package risklow

All viable candidates match the 0805 package.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, drop-in replacement was found. All viable alternatives have different hold currents and require engineering review.

Best replacement path

Review ASMD0805-050-24V for circuits tolerant of higher current, or BSMD0805-030-30V if a lower trip point is acceptable.

Main risk

The primary risk is a mismatch in hold current, which can lead to failed protection (too high) or nuisance tripping (too low).

Recommended alternatives

Form-fit compatible PTC fuse with a lower hold current (300mA) and higher voltage rating (30V).
