Subject: 1608FF END OF LIFE NOTICE
To Whom It May Concern:
Cooper Electronic Technologies’ 1608FF Series SMD Fuse is at its end of life as a current product offering.
The 0603FA-R Series CHIP™ Fuse is the recommended replacement for the 1608FF Series fuse. The
0603FA-R series is compliant with the RoHS Directive, whereas the 1608FF product is not. Functionally,
the two devices are interchangeable. The 0603FA-R series delivers additional benefits that we are sure our
valued customers will enjoy. Specifically, the 0603FA-R carries a lower profile for use in smaller spaces, alpha
coding for easier identification of current rating, higher voltage ratings for some current ratings, higher inrush
withstand capability for some current ratings, and is RoHS Compliant. The 0603FA-R is immediately
available. The data sheet for the 0603FA-R series may be found on our web site (www.cooperet.com).
We will do our best to minimize the customer inconvenience and allow the transition to proceed during the next
few months. “End of life” quantity purchases are being accepted through May 2006, with shipments continuing
into June 2006. The official end of life date is June 30, 2006.
Please plan the transition process. Cooper Electronic Technologies’ personnel will assist with the
implementation as required.
Thank you,
