At this time, no single universal component exists that can fulfill all circuit protection needs. Hence, a multibillion dollar industry has grown to produce components that limit, block, shunt, or crowbar dangerous surges. Bourns is one of the leading manufacturers in this industry and has developed a number of different overcurrent and overvoltage components that, in combination, can provide a complete circuit protection solution. This presentation will focus on one of Bourns’ newest circuit protection devices, the SinglFuse™ single blow SMD fuses.
