ABSTRACT:
A voltage limiting circuit for fuse technology. The voltage limiting circuit is coupled to the two terminals. The voltage limiting circuit is responsive to a fuse blow through a low impedance sensing circuit, and then minimizes the voltage across the fuse gap that is created by the fuse blow. Thus, the invention prevents dendritic growth and corrosion in copper or similar types of fuses.
