Littelfuse has announced the release of its new compact cartridge fuse series that is rated at 500 Vac/Vdc with current ratings from 40A to 63A and specially designed for overcurrent protection applications.
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced a new thin film chip fuse for electric (EV) and hybrid electric (HEV) vehicles, where it will provide protection for voltage sensing circuits in battery management systems, in addition to circuit protection for small loads.
Bourns expanded the company's SinglFuse product line with two new automotive-grade SMD fuse model families, SF-0603SA-M and SF-1206SA-M for providing rugged overcurrent protection for a broad range of harsh environment applications that require long life and high reliability.
Littelfuse has released a 400PV Fuse series of 2410 size surface mount design (SMD) circuit protection component that offers low resistance for photovoltaic (PV) applications.
A fuse is probably the simplest electrical device, but its function is critical in protecting electrical circuits from damage. Fuses are found in every circuit in one form or another in various shapes, sizes, and ratings.
Uncertainty is the truth of nature and there is no exception in electronics or electrical engineering. There are a lot of reasons that are responsible for the failures of a well-constructed circuit.
Toshiba Electronic Devices and Storage Corporation launched the TCKE8xx series, a line up of six eFuse ICs that support various functions needed for circuit protection in power supply lines.
