38ASL16C-2

Fuses are a form of electrical protection device used in electrical circuits. The 38ASL16C-2 is an Advanced Surface Mount Chip Fuse with axial leads that is designed for ESD protection in consumer electronics, communication equipment, and automotive applications. This fuse is specifically designed to handle currents up to 16A with an operating voltage up to 200V DC. This product offers a wide range of features such as low power dissipation, fast acting, and low switching resistance.

The 38ASL16C-2 chip fuse is designed to provide superior ESD protection and great reliability. It consists of an encapsulated fuse element, an end cap, and a high impact housing. The fuse element is made with a nickel-plated steel core base with silver alloy contacts that are arc-resistant and heat-resistant. The end cap is made with PBT and has a pre-set trip point for the fuse element to operate at. The high impact housing is designed to provide additional mechanical strength to prevent any damage caused by external force.

Since ESD protection is one of its main applications, the 38ASL16C-2 must be able to protect the system from shock and ESD currents. This is done by quickly limiting and absorbing overvoltage transient waves that could otherwise damage the system. The 37ASL16C-2 is designed to do this by using its fast-acting qualities and low switching resistance. This fuse will sense the overvoltages as they pass through, and then act fast to limit the current and cut off the voltage to prevent any further damage.

The 38ASL16C-2 is also designed with low power dissipation in mind. This fuse is designed to help reduce power dissipation by using silver alloy contacts to create a conductive path between the fuse element and the circuit. The silver alloy contact releases heat quickly and dissipates it before it can cause any damage to the system.

The 38ASL16C-2 has a wide range of uses and can be installed in various consumer electronics, communication equipment, and automotive applications. This chip fuse is uniquely designed for superior overvoltage protection and great reliability, meaning it’s perfect for applications that require a higher level of safety and reliability. In addition, the low power dissipation and fast-acting properties make the 38ASL16C-2 an ideal choice for these types of applications.

In conclusion, the 38ASL16C-2 is an advanced surface mount chip fuse that offers superior ESD protection and reliability for various consumer electronics, communication equipment, and automotive applications. It is designed with low power dissipation and fast-acting properties to quickly limit and absorb overvoltage transient wave, thus providing protection from shock and ESD currents. This makes the 38ASL16C-2 an ideal choice for applications where a higher level of safety and reliability is required.
