Effective Circuit Protection for Modern System Designs
Our protection Integrated Circuits (ICs) ensure that your design has the most effective circuit protection from over-voltage, over-current and unexpected transient voltage spikes (surge protection) that are present in many operating environments.
Protection ICs
DC-DC Power Switch ICs
Power-switch ICs manage power rails by creating an electrical connection from the source to the load in a circuit. They protect against over-voltage, over-current and short-circuit occurrences.
These devices offer robust protection features and smooth turn-on functionality during the plug-in of a hot-swappable board to ensure safe operation and flexibility in applications such as:
Hard drives
Server boards
Peripherals and Peripheral Connect Interface (PCI)
Electromechanical power relays are switches that use low-power signals to control high-power electrical circuits. They consist of an electromagnet, an armature, a spring and a series of electrical contacts.
When an electrical current flows through the coil of the electromagnet, it creates a magnetic field that attracts the armature, causing it to move and either make or break a connection with the contacts.
Explore our high-quality, ultra-fast, soft-recovery silicon discrete rectifiers to enhance the performance and reliability of your high-frequency switching applications.
These products provide power from Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) instead of local AC mains or other remote feeding to simplify powering a low-port-count Distribution Point Unit (DPU).
Our broad portfolio of Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes includes unidirectional and bidirectional discrete plastic TVS devices with power levels ranging from 600W to 130 kW.
