Applications
Typical applications include circuits with a direct battery or power source connection, critical and safety relevant circuits
without (integrated) current limitation and any application that is subject to high levels of board flexure or temperature
cycling. Examples include raw power input side filtering (power plane/bus), high current applications (automobile battery
line) and circuits that cannot be fused to open. Markets include consumer, medical, industrial (power supply), automotive,
aerospace and telecom.
