The fuse resistors RF serve the dual
purposes of being non- destructive
energy dissipators, when transients are
clamped and of being fuses, when the
line is exposed to a power cross.
Ericsson Microelectronics AB offers a
series of thick film resistors networks (e g
PBR 51- series and PBR 53-series)
designed for this application.
Also devices with a built in resetable fuse
function is offered (e g PBR 52-series)
including positive temperature coefficient
(PTC) resistors, working as resetable
fuses, in series with thick film resistors.
Note that it is important to always use
PTC´s in series with resistors not
sensitive to temperature, as the PTC will
act as a capacitance for fast transients
and therefore the ability to protect the
SLIC will be reduced.
