Circuit protection has become a crucial design consideration to protect sensitive applications against overcurrent conditions. In most applications, overcurrent and overtemperature conditions are an ...

Every time a user plugs in, operates or leaves a system unattended, an overcurrent fuse should be there to ensure against circuit operation above a specified value. BRIAN AHEARNE, Product Line Manager ...

LoRh Surface Mount PPTC Resettable Fuse Series provides fast overcurrent protection with ultra-low internal resistance, voltage drop and power dissipation.LoRh Surface Mount PPTC Resettable Fuse ...

This design idea describes a resettable high-speed fuse that uses only a few off-the-shelf parts, resets itself after blowing, and doesn't require a special current-sense resistor. While the circuit ...

Bourns has added 20 Multifuse polymer PTC resettable fuses in 1206 packages to its circuit protection portfolio, the Model MF-NSMF series. The new higher power rated fuses provide expanded over ...

Toshiba has expanded its range of eFuse circuit breaker ICs with a 53mΩ version that trips in 320ns, all in a 3 x 3mm package. Dubbed TCKE712BNL, it is aimed at consumer goods including cameras, ...

One can 3D print with conductive filament, and therefore plausibly create passive components like resistors. But what about active components, which typically require semiconductors? Researchers at ...

If you’re an experienced hacker, you’ve probably run into a problem at some point and thought “let’s make a tool to automate that”. A few hours later you’ve got your tool, but then realize that the ...
