Hi Masters,
This is really not an SI related query, but comes under electronics design.
My query is this. Can a thin PCB trace be used as a reliable fuse. I have a
real estate problem on my PCB & require 4 fuses with current threshold of
6A. I searched for the components & found they too huge to use on the PCB.
So thought I can use trace as fuse!!
If it is possible is there any paper that has this explained?
Please help.
Thanks,
Tilak
