As an important type of basic electronic component, the supply and demand situation of the fuse product market has always been relatively stable, and the price trend has also been relatively stable. Benefiting from the high and rapid development of 3C electronic products and equipment such as computers, communication, and consumer electronics in recent years, some manufacturers/suppliers have begun to target the emerging market of customized fuses and develop a series of fuse products that meet the special needs of different end users and have their own characteristics. At present, there are three requirements for the development of the fuse industry in the era, and customers need to know when purchasing.
1. Upgrade safety regulations to improve safety requirements
The key function of a fuse is to fuse in a timely manner in case of overcurrent, in order to protect people, equipment, and prevent fires. Due to the increased requirements for safety performance, there have been some changes in the relevant safety standards IEC60127 recently. The revised IEC60127 has improved the flame resistance of the plastic around the hot wire
2. Fuses are developing with integration and miniaturization
With the improvement of industry standards, it is necessary for fuses to respond quickly, have low losses, and even adapt to a wider range of environmental use. In addition, with the trend of miniaturization and integration of electronic products, it is also required for fuses to achieve smaller packaging methods. Especially in recent years, the rapidly developing automotive and power energy industries are thriving.
3. Highlighting customized needs of end users
The requirements for fuses vary depending on the application conditions of different products. Currently, the demand for customized fuse products in the end user market is increasing rapidly. For example, consumer electronics constantly pursue characteristics such as lightness and thinness. Therefore, miniaturization and high surge resistance are the main demands of customers. At the same time, customers also demand that the explosion-proof and lightning resistance of the product be improved accordingly. In the integrated design of the power system, having fuses for DC 420V and AC 250V has become the primary demand of the server cloud device customer group
