The pyro-fuse driver system design is
based on original equipment manufacturer (OEM) requirements. This reference design
can handle most designer requirements with the given topology and diagnosis
requirements.
- Differences compared to the
conventional fuse:
- Much faster disconnect
process minimizes arc formation.
- A special driver is
required. Firing high-voltage disconnect requires specific current and
timing setting.
- Active triggering enables
controlled and consistent disconnect.
