SEMICONDUCTOR PROTECTION FUSES FOR DIRECT MOUNTING ON PRINTED
CIRCUIT BOARDS
Ferraz Shawmut’s new PCS series of extremely fast-acting, direct-mountable fuses addresses
the increasing need for electrical protection at the PC board as current and voltage requirements
push higher. These fuses help printed circuit board manufacturers reduce parts by eliminating
clips and fuse blocks and allowing automated assembly. PCS fuses are AC and DC rated and are
extremely current-limiting. They will protect semiconductors, main frame boards, circuit breakers
with low interrupting rating and other critical components. PCS fuses bring I2t protection, higher
voltage and interrupting ratings to the board itself and are UL Component Recognized.
