Energy Conservation & Sustainable Design

Circuit Protection

Sustainable design, like energy efficiency, is an essential consideration for prolonging the lifetime on an electronic device. Newark stock a range of products that can protect the electronic circuit from critical events such as ESD, voltage spikes and power surges.

Trisil Crowbar Protection

By operating in short circuit mode, Trisil ICs from STMicroelectronics combine high surge capabilities with more complex topologies than TVS crowbar diodes and small package size.

 

OX/OY Series

Ohmite’s OX/OY series of ceramic composition resistors are ideal for circuitry associated with surges. The axial leaded resistors are capable of 50 and 80 joules, respectively.

Discretes

Advanced discrete electronic components including Zener diodes and transient suppressing diodes protect your electronic circuits from unpredictable events such as power surges and ESD (electrostatic discharge), which can harm delicate electronic components.

Fuses

Fuses are found in a wide range of consumer electronics are one of the first protection systems in many electronic circuits. Selecting the correct type of fuse is vital to the longevity of any electronic circuit. Newark provide a range of fuses including auto-resettable, fast-acting, high current and surface mount variations.

Passives

Newark provide a range of passives that are ideal for protecting electronic circuits from high-energy surges and prolonging the lifetime of your product. Such options include advanced filters, resistors and gas discharge tubes.
