1. Under normal circumstances, fuses play a connecting role in the circuit. 2. Under abnormal (overload) conditions, the fuse serves as a safety protection component in the circuit, which can safely cut off and protect the circuit through its own fusing. 2、 The working principle of a fuse: When a fuse is energized, the heat converted from electrical energy causes the temperature of the melt to rise. When normal working current or allowable overload current passes through, the heat generated is radiated to the surrounding environment through the melt or shell, and the heat dissipated through convection, conduction, and other means gradually reaches a balance with the heat generated. If the generated heat is greater than the dissipated heat, the excess heat gradually accumulates on the melt, causing the temperature of the melt to rise; When the temperature reaches or exceeds the melting point of the melt, it will cause the melt to melt, fuse, and cut off the current, playing a rol
We know that there are many series of fuses in the electronic component market, including patch fuses. This series of fuses is commonly used in factories, with few being used by individual users. But what should we pay attention to when testing patch fuses? Today, editor Dai Liang, let's take a look together. Firstly, The detection method for patch fuses is recommended to be based on the following aspects: normal current, fusing current, open circuit voltage, short circuit current, impulse current, and ambient temperature. 1. Normal current: Firstly, we must know the normal current flowing through the fuse in the circuit used. Usually, we need to pre-set a derating amount and choose according to the following principle: the normal current must be less than the product of the rated current and the derating coefficient. 2. Fusing current: According to UL specifications, the fuse should quickly fuse at twice the rated current. But in most cases, to ensure reliable fusing, we recomm
Fuses must be easily melted metal wires in order to fuse in a timely manner and provide protection when the current is high, so lead antimony alloy wires are usually used. The fuse material is mainly made of low melting point alloys such as aluminum antimony alloy. The main element of aluminum magnesium alloy aluminum plate is aluminum, and a small amount of magnesium or other metal materials are added to enhance its hardness. Aluminum alloy with Mg as the main additive element is also known as rust resistant aluminum alloy due to its good corrosion resistance. Because it is itself a metal, its thermal conductivity The fuse material is mainly made of low melting point alloys such as aluminum antimony alloy.

1. How much current can a fuse flow through? The rated current is the current value that a fuse can operate for a long time, not the operating current. Due to safety issues related to fuses, they are considered safety devices and must pass relevant certifications before they can be produced and sold. Usually, safety regulations require that the temperature of a fuse should not exceed the allowable value when operating at the rated current. For example, UL specifies that the temperature should not exceed 75 ℃ when operating at 100% of the rated current. The safety regulations also impose strict requirements on the fusing time when the actual current exceeds the rated current. For example, a fuse of a certain specification can operate continuously for at least 60 minutes at 1.5 times the rated current; At 2.1 times the rated current, it can work continuously for up to 2 minutes; At 2.75 times the rated current, it can work for at least 400ms ($1.7100) and at most 10s; There is al
SMD fuse specifications | price - SMD fuses can be divided into SMD disposable fuses and SMD self recovery fuses. Among them, the specifications of patch disposable fuses include series 060312062410 fuses, and the specifications and dimensions of patch self recovery fuses include series 0603, 0805, 1206, 1210, 1812, 2920, etc. The price of SMD fuses varies depending on the type. The latest quotation for SMD fuses in the market is around a few cents, with wholesale prices. Good quality products can be sold for around one yuan. There are differences in prices between suppliers and traders, so when searching for products in bulk, it is more advantageous to find manufacturers and suppliers. Chip fuse specification | price - The fuse must be a fusible metal wire in order to fuse in a timely manner and provide protection when the current is high. The fuse material is mainly made of low melting point alloys such as aluminum antimony alloy. There are four basic forms of patch fuses: slo
