Advanced Circuit Protection Devices for Automotive Applications
Selection Guide for Automotive Applications
There are dozens of applications that need circuit protection. They include USB ports, Ethernet ports, CANBus and LINBus lines, antenna, infotainment display interfaces, power systems, fuel injection management systems, and many more. Electrical transients present a top critical risk to damaging these systems. Electrical transients also increase servicing and warranty costs for auto manufacturers. Therefore, proper circuit protection is an important factor of any automotive design process. In addition, vehicle electronic systems will need to comply with automotive standards such as ISO 16750-2 (12V & 24V systems), MIL-STD-1275 (28V System), ISO 7637-2, ISO 10605 and the new ISO 21780 standard for 48V Systems.
There are many common transients in automotive systems that impact performance of the electronic systems. They can be generated from many different sources, from common electrostatic discharge, load dump, inductive switching and other electrical surges. ProTek Devices offers a variety of protection solutions.
