Short-circuit protection in off-line flyback converters with Fairchild FPS ICs is a viable solution that can be easily used. To use this feature requires a thorough understanding of the ...

Many equipment manufacturers prefer protection circuits combining resettable overcurrent protection devices with upstream fail ... A second PPTC device on the driver output can be used to help to ...

It also adds short-circuit load protection to an even “dumber” driver such as the output of a simple logic gate (Fig. 1). As a result, ...

During a short circuit, the peak current in L 1, which decreases because of the limited number of switch cycles, and the peak current in L 2 sum up to equal the peak current in the switch, which is ...

The protection circuit evaluation board, which contains the Ethernet transformer, ... tests per IEEE802.3 were performed on the circuit design as well as the design with the TCS device replaced with a ...

Eaton says its upcoming Breaktor circuit protection technology works more effectively than standard circuit protector methods while also reducing maintenance costs.

Products such as the E-T-A ESS20 electronic circuit breaker and the ESX10 electronic circuit protector can be mounted in groups in the recently introduced rack-mountable SVS09 power distribution ...
