Bourns provides a recommended PCB layout and land pattern in their application note AN204, which can be found on their website. It's essential to follow these guidelines to ensure proper assembly and performance of the component.
To prevent damage, handle the PCW1J-C24-KAB104L by the body only, avoiding touching the pins or the ceramic element. Use anti-static wrist straps, mats, or other ESD protection methods to prevent electrostatic discharge damage.
Bourns recommends derating the maximum voltage by 10-15% to ensure reliable operation and to account for any voltage spikes or transients in the circuit. For example, if the rated voltage is 24V, the derated voltage would be around 20-21V.
While the PCW1J-C24-KAB104L is rated for operation up to 125°C, it's essential to consider the derating curves provided in the datasheet to ensure the component can handle the expected temperature range in your specific application.
To troubleshoot issues, start by verifying the component is properly assembled and soldered. Check for any signs of physical damage, overheating, or electrical overstress. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance and voltage across the component, and consult the datasheet and application notes for guidance on expected behavior.
