Abstract :
The proper selection of fuses for use with power semiconductor conversion equipment has taken on greater importance as the size of these equipments has increased and the designs become more sophisticated. Approximately four years ago a working group was formed to study the application and specification of fuses for semiconductor devices and to establish testing procedure, and basis of rating of such fuses.
