ABSTRACT:
A fuse circuit includes a fusible element and a feedback path which causes the circuit to behave as if the fusible element is fully blown even though the fusible element in fact is partially intact. While a partially intact fuse normally would result in a continuous drain of power, the feedback path cuts off the current flow through the partially intact fusible element.
